Chapter 121
“Byran, you lucky dog” Julius stood up, rummaging for the bet agreement in his pocket and crumpling it with a disgruntled expression before tossing it to Byran.
Byran caught the ball of paper, unfolded it to double check, then promptly ripped it up
“Julius, if you guys didn’t cheat, you’d have lost fair and square Still can’t swallow your defeat? How about another round? If you lose, you’ll have to call me grandpa. Dare
to take it on?”
“I don’t have time for your games!” Julius was clearly not up for another round, with a gloomy face, he turned and left with his gang, with tails between their legs.
Byran could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, Ellinor was lazing about on the couch quitting the game, and opening up a pinned group chat on WhatsApp. She shot a message to the group, “You guys did good I’ll give you a cash bonus later
Chase Larios avatar popped up. “You roped us into your game, and now you just want to buy us off with some cash?”
Ellinor replied. “What do you want then?”
Chase sent a goofy emoji. “I want you!”
Another avatar, named Ida Gipson, appeared, “Boss, I haven’t seen you at the company in a hot minute”
Chase chimed in, “Exactly!”
Ellinor responded, “I’ll make time to drop by in the next few days. Behave yourselves!”
After placating her underlings, Ellinor pocketed her phone and got up to leave.
“Ellinor, wait!”
Byran called out to her.
Ellinor halted, “What is it, Mr. Howard?”
Byran stood up, giving her a rather unfriendly look, “Why did you help me today? I haven’t been exactly nice to you in the past.”
Ellinor replied nonchalantly, “Consider it payback for you having my back earlier.”
Byran scoffed, “With your smarts, you could have handled those girls even if I hadn’t stepped in. They’re lucky you didn’t give them a thrashing!”
*Flattered” Ellinor gave him a faint smile, then turned her attention to the bruises on his face, “Mr. Howard, I’m curious, why didn’t you call for your security when you were getting beaten up on your own turf?”
Byran stubbornly retorted, “If I called them, they’d tell my dad and my brother. I don’t want them to know!”
Ellinor patted his shoulder, ‘Kid, sometimes you’ve gotta swallow your pride in front of your family. Your safety always comes first, there is no need to suffer for the sake of face.”
Byran scowled. “I don’t need you telling me what to do!”
Ellinor shrugged and pulled her hand back. Then forget I said anything.”
