Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 648

Chapter 648 Survival of the Fittest, the Strong Devour the Weak

As soon as the press conference was broadcasted on the news, Owen immediately received a phone call from Wendy.

“Miss Jennings.” His tone was respectful. “I assume you’ve seen the news?”

“I told you to cause trouble for Alexander. Is this all you can do?” Her tone wasn’t harsh, but every word carried a connotation of blame.

“I’m sorry. It’s my fault.” He lowered his head while holding the phone. “I will find another opportunity.”

“Haven’t you realized? You’re working at the wrong angle,” she calmly said. “Elise and Alexander are husband and wife. If other people cause trouble for them, it will only strengthen their bonds and make them reveal a united front to the outside world. This method will never work even if you repeat a similar incident ten times or a hundred times over.”

“You mean…” He carefully probed at her plans.

“All corruption begins from within. Since Elise stubbornly refuses to realize her error, then we have to help her see Alexander’s two-faced nature.” Wendy narrowed her eyes slightly, and a shrewd look flashed in her eyes. “When she despairs over the people closest to her, she will learn how filthy this world is and how inferior humans are. Then, she will naturally approach us and join us. At that time, we can finally work together to bring about the coming of the apocalypse!”

“But, Miss Jennings,” Owen asked uncertainly, “will the apocalypse really come?”

“What are you trying to say?” Her tone became hostile.

“Please don’t misunderstand.” He quickly explained himself. “Of course, I know that humans are hopeless. But, can we really create a new world that belongs to us if we destroy the humans and the current world? Up until now, I’ve only ever seen traces of the new world in games…”

Half a minute of silence came from the other side of the phone when he finished speaking. The silence during that half-minute made him feel as though a century had passed. His heart rose to his throat, and he couldn’t help swallowing nervously.

A long time later, her voice rang out again gloomily. “Don’t forget this: Even if there is no new world, humans are pathetic. So we must prevent them from progressing any further. Only the very best and outstanding people have the qualifications to survive. Survival of the fittest. That’s our mission!”

“I understand.” He solemnly gave a salute as he clutched the phone tightly. Then, he looked before him and continued, “The strong will devour the weak. These filthy humans deserve to be destroyed!”

After they left the press conference, Alexander and Elise returned to the villa. Quentin and Layla had been back in Tissote for some time, but they had yet to meet with Alexander. So, it was high time to visit them.Layla came out of the house to greet them as soon as they got out of the car. She tugged at Elise and grinned from ear to ear. “Sweetie, you are my daughter indeed! I lost five kilograms just by following your diet for a few days. Not to mention, I don’t feel hungry at all!”

“It’s great that you’ve lost some weight.” Elise smiled gently. Then, she turned around and introduced Alexander. “Mama, this is Alexander.”

“Mama.” Alexander took the initiative to greet Layla.

Layla nodded repeatedly. “Not bad. Not bad. What a handsome-looking man. You’re well-matched with Elise!”

“Thank you, Mama.” He had expected to receive criticism and mentally prepared himself under that assumption. But, contrary to his expectations, she turned out to be so warm and friendly.

During dinner, Layla also enthusiastically piled food onto Alexander’s plate. “We’re a family now. Don’t be so reserved. Eat more.”
