Bring Your A Game, Mr

Chapter 1054

Chapter 1054

"How would I know what it is? You can ask him about it yourself."

Rylantha rolled her eyes impatiently before remarking with a smile, "Since I did you such a huge favor, you should remember to repay me for my kindness."

"Ariel is my future sister-in-law and a friend as well. I won't be helping you with anything that hurts her." Elise shut down that possibility without allowing Rylantha to state what she wanted.

"How lame. Well, you can at least put in a good word for me with the old fool, right?" Rylantha replied with the look of someone who got shortchanged.

"That I can do."

"You're no fool, aren't you, huh? You immediately refused to do something that'd take a lot of effort, but you readily agreed to something that won't cost you anything," Rylantha retorted scathingly.

Then, she got her purse and adjusted her clothes. "I've done what I was supposed to do. You're heading down, right? Come on. Let's go together."

They got into an elevator and the doors were just about to close when a janitor who was wearing a baseball cap entered with a janitor cart.

Rylantha covered her nose in disdain and grumbled, "Don't they have service elevators at a resort as big as this?"

The janitor ignored the comment. He simply pulled his cap a little further down.

Elise couldn't help but take a second glance. The large trash can was clean and the rag hanging on the side of the cart looked new, but what she was most struck by was the fact that the janitor was wearing a pair of limited-edition leather shoes from a luxury brand.

If she recalled correctly, those shoes cost at least five figures. Even Jamie wouldn't be willing to drop that much cash on a pair of shoes.

What kind of janitor is this? He spends even more lavishly than the son of the Kellers.

Elise knew that this was no ordinary janitor at all. She kept her guard up and secretly tracked the person's movements.

True enough, as soon as the elevator doors closed, the janitor made his move. First, he knocked Rylantha out with his elbow.

Elise had only just retrieved her silver needles when she realized that it was Owen. She quickly put her needles away and gasped in surprise, "Owen? What are you doing here—"

Before she could finish her question, Owen used the same attack on her.


In reality, Owen used too little force to knock out someone with Elise's level of strength, but to figure out what he was trying to do, she had to go along with it and pretend to faint.

When the elevator doors opened once again, the only person that came out was a janitor pushing a janitor cart.

At the resort entrance.

The Griffiths' cars were lined up by the side of the road as Danny and the others waited for everyone to gather. Soon after Irvin and Alexia joined them, Alexander showed up.

The moment he got down from the car, Alexia rushed over to him. "Daddy!"

Alexander looked exhausted. He stumbled a little when Alexia bumped into him, but once he regained his balance, he picked her up and asked, "Where's Mommy?"

"She's upstairs talking to god grandpa's youngest daughter," Alexia informed cheerfully.

"Aren't you being a bit too clingy, Alexander? It has only been a day since you last saw her and you're already running all the way over here," Jamie teased when he noticed how fatigued Alexander looked. "You look like you had a rough time. Was it because you missed Boss so much that you couldn't fall asleep?"

"Ahem." Alexander cleared his throat and side-eyed Jamie.

"That's strange. Why is Elise taking so long to come out?" Danny was beginning to get rather impatient.

"Have Mommy and Miss Abbott been talking for a long time?" Alexander asked Alexia.

"It's been quite some time." Alexia nodded.

"Come. Let's go and find her." Alexander set Alexia down and took her hand before walking up the steps with her.

Owen wheeled Elise and Rylantha through the main lobby as he headed toward the exit, but along the way, he spotted Alexander coming in with Alexia.

He quickly pulled his cap down and pushed his janitor's cart to the side to keep a distance from them.

Just when he was about to reach the entrance, there was a loud crash in the lobby. An attendant had accidentally dropped a teapot, and the manager immediately stopped Owen. "Hey, you. Yes, you, the janitor. Come and clean this up now."

Most of the people in the lobby turned to look at the janitor. Even Alexander turned as well.

Owen clenched his jaw and took a broom off the cart before turning around to clear the mess.

It was rare to see a janitor passing through the main lobby of a luxurious resort. Alexander kept eyeing the janitor and only stopped when Alexia let go of his hand to press the button for the elevator. "Slow down, Lexi."

The elevator was stopped on the top floor and it took two minutes for it to come down. It took three minutes for them to get to Room 204.

Alexia keyed in the password and opened the door. The two of them walked into the room but they didn't see any sign of Elise.

"Mommy, Daddy's here to pick us up."

Alexia thought that Elise was playing hide and seek with her, so she scampered off into the bedroom to look for Elise.

Alexander searched the other two rooms as well.

They checked the entire suite and failed to find anyone in the place.

Alexia walked out of the bedroom scratching her head. "Did Mommy go down using the other elevator?"

Alexander took his phone out and called Danny. "Has Elise gone down?"

Danny looked around. "Nope."

As soon as he responded, Alexander hung up.
