Bring Your A Game, Mr

Elise caught on to his words right away. Alexander had the utmost confidence that he could keep the Griffiths from bankruptcy. In that case, she had no excuse to go up against Jeremy, which meant his life would be spared. Just then, Elise furrowed her brows into a thin line and she frustratedly replied, “I’ve overlooked that.”

At that point, Alexander lifted his hand to ruffle her fluffy hair. “It’s alright. A stunning girl with a boyfriend wouldn’t need to lift a finger to seek revenge.” Stunning girl?! In all honesty, Elise felt that Alexander was exaggerating. After all, once someone like her takes offense against a person, she would definitely go after the other party’s life. She held her grudges, and did not forgive nor forget. Only Alexander could choose to go against his conscience and turn a blind eye to that. Elise’s expression was serious when she removed his hand and teased, “President Griffith, it’s not right to judge someone by wearing blinkers.”

Alexander smiled in response. Then, he naturally took her hands and wrapped them around his waist so she seemed to be hugging him by default. Soon after that, he reached out and pulled her into an embrace using his long arms. “I can’t help it when I’m faced with you.” He didn’t plan to change either. It was a natural instinct to be biased toward someone you love.

Elise felt her face flush red and it felt as if there was a magical spell that had been cast on her, so she didn’t dare to move a muscle. The two of them remained in an embrace for quite some time until the elevator doors from nearby opened and a middle-aged couple in their forties walked out of the elevator.

and he frustratedly spat out, “You’re a lunatic…” After saying that, he placed a hand on his wife, Maureen’s, shoulders and reached out his other hand to push the door handle. Just then, Elise instantly reacted to that and she moved forward to grab Joshua’s hand. She easily grabbed him and she pushed him against the wall by the room. “Oh my god! Where did this lunatic come from? Help! Is there anyone there? There’s a lunatic here assaulting us! Hel—” Maureen immediately yelled out for help as soon as she saw her husband get into
