Bring Your A Game, Mr

Chapter 511 Unable to Resist

Soon, she remembered that it was a party after all and was excited and eager once again. “Kenneth,

Elise is the main guest of this party here, so let’s have a chat in the room.”

With that, Faye walked forward to hold Kenneth’s arms.

However, before her fingers could even touch him, Kenneth raised his arms delicately to avoid her.

“Please have some self-respect.” His face darkened as he left her hand dangling mid-air in an awkward

position.

Her smile became quite awkward, but she still forced herself to smile as she tried to resolve her faux

pas. “Kenneth, you are so good at teasing!”

“Who said I was teasing you? Do I even know you?” He looked at her impassively.

Faye’s body gave a jolt. “You just told my father that you want to marry me…”

Kenneth looked at her cynically, but he did not utter a word.

Kenneth finally realized the miscommunication and calmly explained, “Oh! I thought the Anderson

Family only has one daughter. I didn’t know that the foster daughter is also counted.”

Even though the rest of the guests knew that Faye was adopted, they did not say anything about it

publicly as they had to take her feelings into account. At this moment when everyone’s focus was on

them, it was undeniably an insult to Faye that Kenneth had pointed it out in such a straightforward

manner.

She was dazed for a brief moment before her anger flared up. “Since you are looking down on me, why

did you request to marry me?”

In other words, how high and mighty could you be for wanting to marry the foster daughter of the

family?

“From where did you get the idea that I want to marry you? You think too highly of yourself.” Kenneth

flashed a fake smile at her.

To begin with, he was already a man of high status. Now that his face was clouded with a tinge of

anger, he emanated a powerful air around him that stunned Faye, whose mouth fell agape as she

dared to retaliate.

His gaze only lingered around Faye for less than two seconds before he looked at Elise gently. “The

woman whom I want to marry is the second daughter—the biological daughter—of the Anderson

Family, Yoona!” he announced clearly.

“My gosh, this is too awkward!”

“Have you guys seen Faye’s behavior earlier? She seems very forward with him, as though she can’t

wait to sleep with him. How embarrassing!”

“Tsk, tsk! As soon as her fiance passed away, she immediately went for another man. A woman like her

is no good at all! Fortunately, God is fair and did not let her tarnish Mr. Bailey’s reputation!”

“I know, right? She is merely adopted, yet she dreams of being together with Kenneth. Does she even

know who he is? He stands out even among a group of talented men. Will he choose a woman who

doesn’t even know who her father is? I’m actually impressed by her wild imagination, though. She even

says he’s her true love—how shameless!”

“Serves her right! I’ve been dissatisfied by her arrogant attitude for a long time now. It’s finally her turn

to be rejected today.”

The crowd’s ridicules rang one after another. Faye’s cheeks were flushed as she gritted her teeth, but

she had to tolerate their insults.

One had to have self-control to achieve great heights. She had already embarrassed herself enough

earlier. If she could not keep herself in check this time, she would be a complete joke.

Elise pouted in confusion. I have already made it clear to Kenneth in Dukethorn. Why is he still so

persistent? Could it be that the famous Kenneth is actually a masochist who likes to be rejected again

and again?

“Mr. Bailey, I think you know that my youngest daughter already has a fiance,” Austin interjected.

“I know.” Kenneth looked at Elise affectionately without looking elsewhere. “Since they are just

engaged, I still have a fair opportunity as long as they are not married. Isn’t that so?”

“I don’t need it, though.” Elise rejected him again. “I love my fiance very much and I don’t need anything

else.”

He retracted his gaze and turned around. “Bring it here,” he ordered.

Upon hearing that, Melody took an exquisitely wrapped gift and placed it in front of Elise. “Miss

Anderson, Mr. Bailey has personally prepared this for you.”

“What is it?” Elise had no plans to accept it.

“Something that you yearn for,” Kenneth replied. “Look at it first before deciding whether you want to

give me a chance or not.”

As she looked at his confidence, Elise’s firm decision wavered.

Excluding his relentless attempts to pester me, this man has actually boosted the economy of Landred

City until it surpassed Athesea. He definitely wields some power that might help me in unexpected

ways.

However, I don’t want to owe him any favors.

Elise was a person who liked to keep things clear and had never completely relied on Alexander.

She stretched her hand and took the present over as she gave it a thought.

After all, she suddenly realized that it was not the first time she owed him a favor. If he wanted to use

these to ask her to do something in exchange, she could not reject him. Since this was the case, she

would not have to hesitate any further. Since she had already owed him many favors, she might as well

graciously accept this.

“That’s it.” Kenneth’s lips twitched into a smile.

“Young woman, settle your relationship issues privately and think about us. We are here today to have

a look at the red jade. Have you brought it with you?”

An elder could not stand it anymore and pressured Elise.

After so many twists and turns, I can’t escape from showing them the red jade anymore.

She turned around to look at Joey behind her and nodded.

“The red jade is too heavy and it’s not quite safe to bring it here. I have asked a professional to take

down a piece and bring it here. If you don’t mind, you can have a look at this.”

With that, Joey walked forward and opened the box that she had prepared.

In an instant, the amber glow from the red jade immediately attracted everyone’s attention.

“It’s an invaluable treasure indeed…”

Joey had no intentions to be the model who showed the jade, so she found a bar table and asked the

waiter to bring the champagne away before she placed it there for the guests to admire.

The group of people stared fixedly at the bar as they took a few steps closer, encircling the bar in the

process until they were about half a meter away. As they were cultured people, they politely left some

space for the Anderson Family members as they looked at the red jade from a distance.
