Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 68

Chapter 68 No Buts!

Without providing any explanation, Elise then dragged Julius out of the bar and soon vanished from Alexander’s sight.

Alexander believed that him seeing H was a product of his hallucination since he was under the influence of alcohol. After disappearing without a trace for ages, it wouldn’t make sense for her to show up and sing at this bar. Plus, the girl he saw earlier had a different aura from his memory of H. He withdrew his gaze and turned to leave.

Once Elise was out of the bar, she released her grip on Julius. “I need to head back now because there’s something I have to do tomorrow.”

It was Julius who appeared reluctant to part ways with her. He finally expressed the thoughts he had wanted to tell her all along, “H, did you see that? They were all engrossed in your music earlier. After so many years, some of your fans are still checking in on Twitter daily to wait for news on your comeback. Are you really okay to say goodbye to the fans who love you?”

“I guess I can only apologize to them.” She pursed her lips.

Julius was aware that Elise would react in the same way that she did years ago—she would not renegade on her words. Still, he was clinging on to a sliver of hope. “No matter what, we’re waiting for your comeback. We’ll be here to witness you recreating the glorious years from before.”

Without replying to him, she merely smiled and patted him on the shoulder. “Send me home now,” was what she said next.

After sending her to the lobby of her apartment, Julius added before leaving, “If you arrive at a decision at any time, feel free to contact me. I’ll be waiting for you.”

Elise waved at him before she headed straight into the apartment. Since Alexander was not back yet, she decided to retire to her room, wash up and go to bed.

As there was an exam the next day, she woke up earlier to prepare herself for it. Then, she realized that Alexander, who stayed in the room next door, had stayed out for the entire night. She didn’t give it much thought and hastily grabbed a bite at the joint in front of the neighborhood entrance. Then, she hailed a cab to the exam venue.

Once she arrived, she saw Samantha and Riley waving at her from afar. “Elise, we’re here!”

It was at that moment when Elise walked over to them. “You guys are quite early.”

Riley chuckled. “We actually arrived yesterday! Last night, we even had some northern cuisine for dinner! It was delicious!”

Then, Elise asked, “Which exam hall are you in?”

Riley checked her entrance pass and replied, “I’m in Hall 7. What about you?”

“I’m in Hall 21.”

Samatha chimed in, “Oh, what a coincidence! I’m right next to you—I’m in Hall 20.”

The three of them headed into the campus while chatting. When they were close to the exam halls, they happened to run into Zachary. He had also spotted Elise and handed her a pouch full of stationeries that he prepared beforehand. “I packed you some 2B pencils and ballpens.”

Elise was a little taken aback and hurriedly turned him down. “It’s fine! I brought mine.”

He did not reply to that and instead shoved the pouch into her hands. Before leaving, he added, “See you after the exam.”

She looked dumbfounded as her friends exchanged looks beside her. “Miss Elise Sinclair, tell us the truth. What’s going on?”

“Nothing,” Elise replied as she shrugged in confusion.

Samantha and Riley obviously didn’t believe Elise’s words and continued to pester her. After having been defeated, she playfully knocked them on their heads. “Quit being busybodies and focus on your exams!”

Although Riley wanted to ask further, she ultimately held her tongue. “I think he must have fallen for you.” Then, she stuck out her tongue at Elise before she waved and wandered into her exam hall.

Upon seeing that, Samantha hurriedly comforted Elise, “Don’t mind her. All the best!” Then, she waved at Elise, who watched as her friends walked away.

Elise looked at the pouch in her hand and wondered whether Zachary had truly fallen for her. What does he want from me, though? I don’t have the most beautiful face… Since she could not figure out his intention, she gave up and handed his pouch to her classmate who didn’t bring any stationery.
