Bring Your A Game, Mr

Chapter 751

Elise would have agreed with Elijah without any hesitation if he told her his request before Trevor was

injected with the cure.

However, she was now calm. She was aware of the reason why Elijah would give her the cure without

a cost. He wanted her to believe the medicine could cure Alexander, so he could finally impose his

conditions on her.

If she really agreed with him, then that would be allowing him to lead her by the nose. Therefore, she

turned on her heel to leave immediately.

"Wait!" Elijah said, and he had decided to make a concession. "What if I ask you to only divorce him? I

don't need you to marry me. Is it enough?"

Elise stopped but didn't turn to face him as she was thinking of turning the tables to her advantage.

Elijah was aware of her wit and her personality. Afraid that she would leave, he added, "The Boyle

Family knows you're going to become my wife, but you married someone else instead in the end. It is

so humiliating. Now that you know the value of the medicine, you have to repay me. I can't just do it for

free, can I?"

"Sure." She finally turned to face him with a calm expression. "I'll do it. In addition, you have to give me

the medicine to treat Grandma."

“You aren't regarding yourself as an outsider, are you?” Elijah took out a document from the folder that

his assistant passed to him. "You should have married me. We could've worked together to conquer the

corporate world with your persuasion."

"I'm doing great on my own. Why do I need to be burdened?" Even though Elise was good at

suppressing her emotions on the surface, she was anxious inside.

She was betting her luck that Elijah wouldn't want to miss the opportunity to have something on her.

For all that the man had sacrificed, he wouldn't leave without a harvest. If he gained nothing in the end,

he would be dissatisfied. As long as he showed a hint of dissatisfaction, then she could get the cure by

giving only the minimum.

He perused the documents and turned his attention back to Elise. Their eye contact lasted for a few

seconds. Even if their expression betrayed nothing, their gazes revealed that they were gambling, as if

an invisible rope was the only balance between them.

After a while, Elijah handed over the document to her. "First, you ask Alexander to sign these. Second,

you’ll travel around the world with me for three months. After that, I'll give you the two cures you're

asking for."

Three months was a long period. However, if Elijah could save Laura's life, then his wishes deserved to

be fulfilled.

"You have a deal." Elise accepted his conditions.

"You need to reconsider it." A wicked smile formed at the corner of Elijah's lips. "I want to see

Alexander's signature first before you can have the cure."

"There's no need." Elise reached out her hand. "Either trust me or lose the deal."

Elijah was out of plans, so he could only signal his lackeys to give her the cure.

Meanwhile in the Griffith Residence, the live streaming was called off as the incident happened. There

were only the Griffiths and the two guests in the household, and the film crew had already left.

When Elise returned to the residence, people were gathering in Alexander's room, including Jamie and

Joseph.

“Boss, I have announced the reward. I believe that we can find a cure soon.” Jamie was worried as he

saw her distressed look.

"The organization also helped with spreading the news," Joseph added as well.

Elise gave them a tired nod. "I got it. You guys can leave. I want to continue the treatment for

Alexander."

Hearing that, Madeline asked in concern, "You look exhausted. Are you sure you can continue?"

"This is not the time to pick up a fight." Adam wasn't pleased.

"That's not what I mean," Madeline explained. "She has worn herself out from both healing Alexander

and helping her brother… She needs to rest!"

What if she makes a mistake and causes Alexander to die? Madeline wasn't going to risk her son's life.

"I'm sorry for wronging you," Adam apologized before he raised his head to look at Elise. "Elise, you

need to rest. What if you wear yourself out before Alexander is cured?"

"I'm fine. I've taken some medicine to boost energy on the way back. I can continue to treat him." Elise

feigned a smile.

"All right, we'll leave you first. Let's not disturb them."

Others left the room on cue.

When everyone left, Elise took out the silver needles to stimulate Alexander's temple. It was effective

as he woke up soon after. He blinked a few times and waited for the fuzziness to leave his mind. When

he became sober, he turned to the side to check on Elise. He scowled when he saw her pale face. "Did

I worry you?"

His quiet voice could only be heard by the two of them.

She shook her head and feigned relaxation. "I'm good. I even carried you back to the room. You owe

me for this. From now on, you need to carry me every time I ask you when we are hanging out."

"Sure." Alexander chuckled as he reciprocated her antics, even though he was aware that Danny was

the one who carried him back to his room.

Even looking at Alexander caused Elise's heart to ache and have the urge to cry. Worried that the

longer she watched him, the more she couldn't hide the truth, Elise took out the disguised divorce

papers promptly.

"Here are some documents that need you to sign. Are you fine with it?" Showing him the documents,

Elise tried her best to remain calm.

Alexander raised himself on his elbows to have a seat. After a deep breath, he took the documents and

the fountain pen from her.

"The last three pages require your signature," she reminded.

It was a familiar scene that had once happened in Smith Co. However, the difference from last time

was that Alexander didn't even hesitate now when he signed his name three times on the lower right

corner of the papers.

Biting on her lower lip, Elise resisted the tears that threatened to fall. She sobbed as she joked, "You

aren't checking them before you sign?"

"You're not a stranger." As he signed the last page, Alexander pushed the documents back to her

without a second look. "I'll give you anything you want, as long as I have them."

Aware of herself almost letting her tears fall, Elise grabbed the documents from him. She busied herself

with sorting the things to avoid his gaze, which was full of sincerity and affection.

Shoving the papers back into the document bag and putting them on the table, she helped Alexander

to lie down on the bed. "I found the cure for you. Rest now, and you'll find yourself cured when you

wake up tomorrow."

"Will you still be here when I wake up?" As if he could tell something was going to happen, Alexander

held Elise's hand and looked at her expectantly like a child.

Elise, however, avoided his eyes as she tucked him into the bed. "Of course. I'm your wife. Where can I

go if I'm not waiting for you?"

"Good. That's good." Alexander sighed in relief and closed his eyes.

Standing at the bedside, she watched him falling to sleep with mixed feelings.

Alexander, you'll forgive me, won't you? We don't need a certificate to prove our love to each other. I

know you'll understand.

Meanwhile, Christopher knocked on Yuri's door and invited her to the corner of the corridor for a talk.

"Yuri, I understand that the timing isn't right for this, but I really want to hear your answer. You're willing

to accept my feelings, right?"
