Chapter 473 Disrespect My Woman, Disrespect Me
Failing to acquire the land, Armand grew utterly anxious. As soon as the auction ended, he stormed out
and made a call to come up with a solution.
Faye, on the other hand, was trying her best to remain composed and act as natural as possible to face
Elise, who was going her way.
“Aww. What should we do? The land you’ve been craving has fallen into another’s hands.” Elise
expressionlessly mocked, “Looks like even without Trevor, you won’t be able to secure your position for
long.”
“Hmph, you don’t have to worry about that.” Faye sneered, “I failed, but you didn’t exactly succeed, so
there’s no point in any debate, is there?”
“Right. Because of that, I lost my only chance to join Anderson Pharmaceuticals…” Elise deliberately
made a remorseful face before returning to her uninterested look. “But you seem to have forgotten that I
have no intention of returning there.”
Faye was taken aback, unable to speak a word.
“Hence, I’ve never wanted anything. Besides, what’s the point of dwelling on stuff that’s already lost?”
Elise profoundly continued, “However, seeing that hideous scowl on your face is pretty satisfying. Isn’t
that something worth celebrating?”

of a certain woman!”
“Say that again and I’ll f*cking rip you apart!” Her eyes wide, Faye shot daggers at him.
“Oh yeah? I’d like to see you try. I’ve been hoping for a sparring partner!”
At that moment, a man in an expensive suit came forth with a file.
“Excuse me. May I know which one of you is Miss Sinclair?” the man in suit politely asked.
“It’s me. What’s the matter?” Elise recognized the man, the same man who took the land away from her
and Faye.
“Great.” The man beamed as he handed the document over. “This is the deed to the land. I, representing
my boss, transfer this gift to you.”
“Wait, who’s your boss again?” Elise warily questioned.
“He’s the founder of Smith Co.—Kenneth Bailey,” the man calmly answered.
“But I don’t know any Kenneth, or any Bailey.” Elise hadn’t even heard of anything remote to Smith Co.
“That’s perfectly fine. You just have to know that, once you’re in Smith Co.’s territory, you become one of
our most prestigious guests.” The man then lowered his body and handed out the deed in his hand.
“Please accept the gift, Miss Sinclair, or I’ll have a hard time.”
Elise always hated people who attempted to force a relationship with her. He wants to know me, so
what? Must I agree to that? Nevertheless, seeing the frustration on Faye’s face, she momentarily
hesitated.
Alexander, who had been silent the whole time, came over and accepted the documents. “Thank you
very much. I’ll accept it in her stead.”
“Sure. Now, if you’ll excuse me…” Fulfilling his mission, the man in suit departed.
Then, Elise rolled her eyes at Alexander. “Are you going to return the favor in my stead too?”
“Why not? You owe me that anyway,” Alexander replied. After all, Kenneth Bailey and Alexander Griffith
were only the same person.
“Huh?” Elise felt something was off.
“What I mean is that I’ll return the favor for you, so naturally, you owe me what you owed him,” Alexander
smilingly clarified.
“Sounds like a plan.” Turning away, Elise cunningly grinned. “Well, that means I owe nothing!”
Alexander responded with a bitter scowl, yet he countered with nothing. Since he had acquired the land
for her by using Smith Co., he had no intention to ask for anything in return. To his own woman, he could
only treat with unconditional pamperings.
Mischievously, Elise pulled a face at Faye and shoved the deed before her. “So, what’re you gonna do
now?”

hear them gritting against each other. Why, this b*tch! She took away my identity and my honor, and now
even people from Smith Co. are giving her such special treatment! How am I losing to her? Apart from
relying on her man, does this shameless b*tch even know anything about anything? How ridiculous!
Seemingly perturbed, Armand came over with his phone, muttering, “Miss Faye, your father wishes to
speak with you.”
Consequently, she collected her feelings and regained composure, calmly stating, “Just you wait, Elise!
You won’t be so lucky all the time!” Finished, she snatched Armand’s phone and fled the scene.
Elise let out a scoff before tossing the deed back to Alexander. “How unexciting. I don’t want it anymore.
You take it.”
Holding the file, Alexander teased, “You’re just gonna treat the land that cost ninety million like a toy?”
“It’s not like I can eat it or cuddle it to sleep. What am I gonna do, worship it?” Elise waved her hand as
she turned to the exit. What a dull day! I’d rather stay home and fool around with Joey.
On their way home, they stopped by a photo shooting studio. Elise, together with Danny, stormed into
the studio and drove everyone inside out. Later, they came out with a rolled poster and a stack of photos
in their hands.
“This is the rent for your studio and the compensation for your crew’s losses.” Danny handed a check to
the studio’s manager and got back into their car with Elise.
