Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 773

Chapter 773 I’ll Have to Go

Onyx felt as though he had been struck by lightning and his expression instantly froze. “How did you know?! The title deed has been in my possession this whole time!”

“Because I have my mother’s intelligence.” Elise smiled. “You didn’t really think that I was just playing around for the past six months, did you? I am not as carefree as you are. Well, it is nothing much. I only learned about computers for a bit and checked the number of properties under each family member’s name.”

Onyx was immediately enveloped in fear upon hearing that. He was looking at Anastasia’s familiar face, but he had a strange feeling about her he had never felt before.

In just half a year, she had turned into a completely different person who was terrifyingly composed.

Turning his body sideways, Onyx squinted suspiciously. “What else do you know?”

“What else do you hope that I know?”

Her eyes had narrowed into slits from the broad smile on her face. Even though she had a pure and pleasant appearance, she looked inexplicably insidious in Onyx’s eyes.

He then fiddled with his fingers as he started to think.

This daughter of his was no longer as innocent and gullible as she was before. He would be the one on the losing end if he revealed too much to her.

Besides, she was right. Legally, she was the owner of this house. He couldn’t do anything about it even if she finally decided to cast them aside.

“Nothing.” He then added with a smile, “Since you are tired, go back to your room for an early rest. We will discuss the wedding later.”

Elise rolled her eyes at him. She then turned around and left without saying a word.

The moment she had her back toward him, the smile on his face immediately disappeared.

The next morning, Elise deliberately went downstairs for breakfast 10 minutes late, only to see the rest of the White Family doing something they usually wouldn’t—they were waiting for her.

She instantly came to a stop, as she felt like she was attending a banquet where everyone else was plotting to have her killed.

“You’re up. Come have breakfast.” Onyx took the initiative to break the silence.

Not one to shilly-shally, she walked over to find a place to sit down before she chowed the food down.

She had just eaten two spoonfuls of food when Onyx placed a shrimp gnocchi on her plate. “Here, it is your favorite,” he said.

She was stunned for two whole seconds but when she regained her senses, she took her fork and picked up the shrimp gnocchi, thereafter throwing it back onto the platter.

She then turned to the kitchen and yelled, “Bring me a new fork!”

“My apologies.” Elise faked a polite smile at him. “My taste has changed now. I don’t like shrimp gnocchi, and I have become a bit of a germaphobe. You won’t be angry about it, right?”

Before Onyx could even reply, Lyra immediately started going off at Anastasia. “What kind of attitude is this? Do you know that this is what your father especially told the kitchen to prepare for you? It is fine if you don’t appreciate it, but you are even spouting ridiculous excuses to try to fool us. Aren’t you indirectly slapping your father in his face this way? I have never seen a daughter like you, and I—”

“Enough!” Onyx sternly stopped the fight. “What is all this quarreling so early in the morning? She is pregnant now. We should all be considerate of her even if she is in a bad mood. How about this? Adelpha is having her piano exam today. We can all go together, and we can also keep Anastasia company so that she can relax.”

“I am not going!”

“You can’t come!”

Anastasia and Adelpha exclaimed at the same time.

“Poppa, I will get distracted if Anastasia goes! Who am I going to blame if I fail the exam?!” Adelpha whined like a child, feeling dissatisfied.
