Bring Your A Game, Mr

Why don’t I have my servant bring you upstairs?” Elise nodded. “Sure!” Then, Faye instructed the servant to show Elise the way upstairs, and she only turned and paced in the opposite direction after Elise had left. Meanwhile, Elise followed the servant upstairs until they reached the attic on the highest floor. Opening the door for her, the servant said, “Miss Sinclair, please.” Elise gave her a nod and went in. In the room, the old madam of the Anderson family, Bertha Jenkins, sat across a deranged woman while muttering, “Jeanie, our lives are so miserable!

Austin and Trevor are lying in hospital, and you’re in this state now, leaving me to pit against that little fox. I’m already old and don’t have so much energy to deal with those things anymore. Seeing that this family is about to fall into that little fox’s hands, what do you think I should do…” The woman named Jeanie held a doll in her hands with an empty look in her eyes, sitting in a daze without a word. Getting no response from her, Bertha wiped away the tears on her face. When she wanted to stand up, it seemed a little strenuous for her because of the gnawing pain from her knees. “Madam… why are you here?” Astonished, Elise wondered, What’s the old lady I just helped an hour ago doing here at the Anderson’s place?

What’s going on here? At the same time, Bertha was equally astonished to see her, and even though she had a good impression of Elise, it didn’t mean that she could accept the fact that she showed up at her home so suddenly, not to mention that it happened in such a situation. Hence, she put on a glum face and asked in an unpleasant tone, “What are you doing here?” First, Elise gazed at her, then she turned to Jeanie, who had an empty look on her face. “Miss Anderson invited me here,” she answered honestly. “So you’re a spy sent by that little fox! Get out of here!”

I don’t want to see you again!” Agitated, Bertha was hopping mad in anger. Her entire face was flushed, and she was acting very defensive toward Elise. Although Elise wanted to explain, Bertha completely refused to listen to anything she had to say and kept chasing her out.

her back. A few seconds later when Bertha caught her breath again, she pushed Elise away roughly. “Don’t touch me!” Staring at her, Elise said, “Madam, there must have been a misunderstanding between us, but it’s okay. If it’s only a misunderstanding, it will be resolved one day.

don’t go! Don’t go, Yoyo! Your mommy is here—I’m here!” Witnessing this, Bertha slumped to the floor. “Lord, what did I do to deserve this?” It was also beyond Elise’s imagination that things would turn out like this now. Just then, the door swung open before Faye’s voice echoed in. “Grandma, I heard that you’re home.” She walked in the same time they heard her, and she was also a little stunned at the scene in front of her. “Grandma, you—” Before she could finish, Bertha sprang up and chided rudely, “You little fox, don’t

unaffected by her words. “What are you talking about, Grandma? I’m your granddaughter, and I will be forever so! Even though Dad and Trevor aren’t here, I’ll do my best to take care of you and Mom.” “Bah! Don’t think that I have no idea what thoughts you’re harboring. All you want is
