Bring Your A Game, Mr

Chapter 1069 I’ve Mistaken You

Suella only grew angrier the more she thought about it. Thus, she stopped at the steps after exiting the hospital's

main entrance to text Maverick, 'Is the money ready? I will publicize the report and destroy you if I don't see it! Get

ready for a life in jail!'

After sending off the message, the young woman hailed a cab. She believed Maverick wouldn't answer her calls,

nor would he respond to her text so quickly. But right after entering the cab, she received the man's reply. 'Thirty

million isn't a small figure. Give me one week.'

'Okay,' replied Suella, and her mood instantly brightened up.

At that, she looked up in the direction of Paul's ward through the window and scoffed. "Pfft, how dare you despise

me just because I'm unlucky? Well, I have a problem with you two, you cursed b*stards! I've had enough of you

both! Just wait for your lonely deaths!"

…

After deliberating at home for two days, Rylantha ultimately decided to help Owen sniff around at the thought that

she had nearly died in Alexander's hands.

She deliberately chose to visit in the afternoon as she would be able to avoid most of the residents in Griffith Manor,

and just as she assumed, Only Camren and Rebecca were in the house.

The two were in the living room, with Camren scrolling the tablet on the armchair while Rebecca fed him fruits. The

two were behaving so affectionately that Rylantha thought she was going to be sick. However, to stay alive, she

held back her emotions and went in.

"Dad." Rylantha put the gifts she got for them on the table and proactively greeted the two. "How has it been

staying here?"

"Perfectly fine when you're not around to piss me off." Camren instantly turned grim and grew increasingly

disappointed at Rylantha after learning the young woman had provoked Anastasia at the resort.

Rylantha felt incredibly humiliated, but she found it too embarrassing to go soft in front of Rebecca. As such, she

merely let out a sigh.

"You guys talk. I'll check on the soup." Rebecca quick-wittedly made an excuse to leave, giving the father and

daughter some space alone.

Meanwhile, Rylantha's gaze followed the woman, and it was when the kitchen door closed that she humbled herself,

apologizing to Camren. "I'm sorry, Dad. I did all of that because I was worried you wouldn't love me anymore with

your other daughter around. You have to put yourself in my shoes too, you know."

"What do you keep in that head of yours? You're both my daughters. How can I favor one and not the other?! You

can manage an empire, yet you're stumped by such a trifle matter," exasperated Camren with disappointment.

"It's on me. But I've come to apologize now, haven't I? You're not going to keep being mad at me, are you?"

Rylantha probed. If Camren decided to put the issue behind them, it would mean that he still cared about her. By

then, even if Alexander found out she was involved in the kidnapping, she wouldn't need to worry about not having

protection.

"And why would I do that? Do you think I'm petty like you women?" Camren had loved his dear daughter all his life,

after all. Naturally, he wasn't going to leave her defenseless. "How about this? Apologize to your sister in front of

everyone when she comes back later. I'll mediate the situation, and we'll put the issue behind us."

"Anything you say," Rylantha agreed nicely, then hurriedly asked Camren while Rebecca was still away, "Dad, where

is Alexander's room?"

"Why do you want to know about that?"

"I heard he's sick. We'll become in-laws once Ariel marries his brother. As Ariel's sister, I should at least see how

he's doing, no?"

"Very good of you to consider that." Camren nodded in reassurance, then said solemnly, "Alex's sickness is pretty

serious. He hasn't come around after so many days. Who knows if he'll even make it? A patient needs to bask in the

sun more often, as they say, so they put him in the first room to the left on the second floor. If you care about him,

you should ask your business partners to look around; see if there are any reliable doctors they'd recommend."

"Got it. I'll ask around." Rylantha acknowledged it perfunctorily, then helped him up. "It's time for your afternoon

nap. Here, I'll help you to your room."

Pleased with her change, Camren said, "Looks like it was a good decision that we searched for your sister. You're

now behaving much better than you used to."

To that, Rylantha didn't answer him but only forced a barely noticeable smile. Oh, so I was good enough for you

before Ariel showed up, and now that she's back, I'm problematic no matter what. Huh, just admit you like Ariel

more.

Since she had long figured it out, she wasn't upset by it. She just found it ironic.

After gently putting Camren to bed, she tiptoed to Alexander's room.

At that, she leaned against the door to listen for movements inside the room. After she was certain there wasn't

anyone, she twisted the doorknob and snuck in.

It was a small suite, so one would find a living room the moment they stepped in. The bedroom would be to the left.

When Rylantha arrived at the doorway connecting the living room and bedroom, she could already see Alexander

lying in bed from afar.

The man was sleeping peacefully with shut eyes, but his face was bloodless. If it weren't that the ECG machine was

still doing its thing, one would think he was a corpse.

That said, Rylantha still felt inexplicably fearful even though the man was motionless.

As she dared not hang around too long, she pulled her phone out and snapped pictures of Alexander.

"What are you doing?" A faint voice came from behind her just then, startling her. At that, she hurriedly turned

around while hiding her phone behind her back.

Seeing it was Irvin, she subtly sighed in relief. A child was much less threatening. However, when she looked back

up, the boy had already stood before her.

He extended his palm toward her expressionlessly and ordered, "Hand it over. I saw it."

Rylantha gulped nervously in response. He was just a child, but for some reason, she felt intimidation coming from

his eyes, and it wasn't after a few seconds of standing off that she finally handed him her phone.

The first thing Irvin checked was her album. Seeing that he didn't find what he was looking for, he took a gander at

her before looking back at the phone and continuing his search.

It seemed that he couldn't find anything. About two minutes later, he returned the phone to Rylantha. "Sorry, Miss

Abbott. I've mistaken you."

"Don't worry about it." Rylantha smiled with ease.

Fortunately, she had come well-prepared. It didn't matter if the pictures were deleted, for she'd be able to fish

them back out from the cloud. She wasn't worried about being searched at all.

"You keep your dad company, alright? I have to go now."

"See you."

Worried that she'd bump into someone else, she ran away as if her life depended on it.

As soon as the door closed, Johnny, who was pretending to be Alexander, sat up right away. "We should install an

alarm at the staircase. Thank goodness that woman didn't scrutinize. I didn't even have time to put this on," said

the man while flinging the IV line.

"To be on the safe side, I believe we should administer an IV drip for you, Mr. Johnny. It'll look more believable," Irvin

suggested.

"Can't you pretend you didn't hear anything?"

"I'll make the preparations."

The poor man was rendered speechless.
