Bring Your A Game, Mr

Chapter 100 Why Didn’t the Old Man Come Along?

At the exact same moment, on the foot of another mountain in Provence was Alexander, a piece of paper in hand. He checked the address and made sure it was right before he pressed the doorbell of the manor. A maid opened the door and automatically spoke in French when she saw an unfamiliar face. “Who are you looking for, sir?”

Alexander responded with equally fluent French. “Is this where Mr. Burton lives?”

The maid’s eyes lit up when she heard his question. “You must be our beloved guest, Mr. Griffith!” The maid spoke in English this time. She led him in after he gave her a polite nod.

“Please get into the carriage, Mr. Griffith,” one of the maids uttered politely. Alexander eyed her puzzledly. “Where exactly are we going?”

“Mr. Burton ordered us to bring you over once you arrive. You’ll know where we’re headed once you’re there,” the maid explained. Alexander got into the carriage, and the coachman steered the horses onto a tiny pathway. This gave Alexander the opportunity to enjoy the view outside the manor. It was a huge piece of land—he couldn’t see the other end of the road even if he tried to. There were grape trellises along the way, and they were covered in green and purple grapes. There were sunflower fields that had their yellow faces pointed toward the sun. What caught Alexander’s eyes the most was the purple lavender fields that looked as gorgeous as a painting…

Why haven’t I heard Grandpa talk about him in the past? Alexander got out of the carriage with his eyebrows raised.

It rubbed its head against Alexander’s leg in a sincere manner, as if it were thanking Alexander. He couldn’t help but pat the dog’s head when he saw the adorable creature. To his surprise, the dog ran off just moments
