Bring Your A Game, Mr

Chapter 897

After asking the maid to bring warm water, Irvin sat down and grabbed Alexia's legs. Then, he began to

massage it without complaining. Looking at them, Alexander nodded in satisfaction. "Now that you

have Irvin massaging your legs, you can knock it off."

"Hmph, Irvin loves me more. I don't like you now. Irvin is now my favorite!" Alexia pouted.

"Looks like someone is going to lose being Alexia's favorite," Elise joked playfully.

When Alexander heard her words, he didn't retort and only smiled while shaking his head. To be

honest, he didn't care if Alexia liked Irvin more than him. After all, what mattered the most was that

Elise was his number one. Hence, it was only reasonable if he wasn't his daughter's favorite. All he

cared about was Elise.

At the same time, in the presidential suite of Sierra Hotel, the television was playing a promotional

video of Cittadel's culture, and there were slices of fruits and red wine on the table. Princess Diana

wore satin pajamas as she snuggled in Prince Caleb's embrace. Both of them were reminiscing about

today's encounter.

"The food street was amazing. Can we head there next time by ourselves, darling?" Princess Diana

asked while pouting.

"Sure. We are here to have fun, so we can head there no matter how many times we want. We still

have a lot of time," replied Prince Caleb.

"To be honest, I like Alexander's wife, but maybe it is because of that design. I'm sure the little girl only

participated in designing the rabbit, and Anastasia designated the rest. Although I respect Amy, I must

admit that Anastasia's design has a unique charisma in it," she explained seriously.

"I noticed it too. I wonder how many designers in Cittadel have hidden talents like Anastasia. They are

strong competitors to us." He sighed deeply.

Being selfish was just an act of human nature. Although they had seen numerous designers from

Cittadel for the past few days, they still wished that their own country's designer would have the brand.

However, it seemed they still had a long way to go now.

Compared to his worries, Princess Diana was rather optimistic. "Didn't we agree not to fret? The

Cittadelians love to compete with each other. What's that saying? Ah, yes, play both ends against the

middle; we'll have the last win by then."

Hearing her words, Prince Caleb smiled but didn't say anything. If things were this simple, we wouldn't

need to come here and snoop around.

At that moment, she seemed to have suddenly remembered something. She grabbed Prince Caleb by

the collar and leaned against him flirtatiously. "Just to be clear, I will go along with your act and fool the

Cittadel's designers around. However, if Amy is to be presented, we must give her the brand," she said.

"Darling, I'm a prince. I must prioritize my country's benefits no matter what." Prince Caleb refused her

request tactfully.

"Well then, you'll sleep on the couch tonight!" When Princess Diana heard his words, she grabbed a

pillow and threw it toward him. Then, she stomped into the bedroom angrily.

With that, the conversation ended unpleasantly.

…

Two days later, a sports car sped along the road and stopped at the Cittadel Department of Commerce.

Then, the car door opened, and out came Danny. After tidying his clothes, he put on his sunglasses

and locked the car. Just as he was about to enter the building, another car entered, and he saw a

familiar number plate—Alexander was there too.

When Danny saw him, he walked toward him and said, "Don't tell me that you are here to meet the

Secretary of Commerce too."

Hearing his words, Alexander looked at him and didn't deny it.

When Danny saw his reaction, he turned and looked at the building. Then, he mumbled thoughtfully,

"Why is he looking for us out of the blue?"

"There must be a hidden agenda behind this. When we meet him, think before you speak." After

reminding Danny, Alexander walked toward the building. Soon, they were inside the secretary's office

with the current Secretary of Commerce.

When they were seated, Raffle Adaway, the secretary, greeted them with enthusiasm. "I see that the

rumors are true; you two are very talented. Mr. Alexander has already made an enormous contribution

to the country's economy. On the other hand, Mr. Danny's International Finance Corporation Building is

looking good. Although you two are just in your thirties, you are already the mainstay of the Cittadel

economy. The Griffiths are talented people."

"I'm flattered." Danny smiled awkwardly. Even when he's the Secretary of Commerce, he still flatters

us, he thought sarcastically.

"You're too polite, Secretary Raffle. It's all thanks to Cittadel's policy that we are who we are today.

Thus, it's our responsibility to contribute to the country. May I know why you summoned us?" As

Alexander spoke, he was calm and had a monotonous expression on his face, making it hard to guess

what was on his mind.

"Ah, yes. There is something I want to tell you guys. It's about collaborating with Yveltalia to create a

brand. The authorities had decided to support this project fully, and Smith Co. has the best possibility to

be chosen. Hence, you can request anything from me if you are having any difficulties. I will help you

sort it out," Raffle explained seriously.

When Alexender heerd his words, he remeined celm end replied indifferently, "Thenk you for your

concern. The preperetion wes going smoothly, end we didn't fece eny trouble. If there is enything, I will

inform you first-hended."

"Thet's greet, es long es you heve e plen in mind. If it's not e bother, would you mind sending me e

report ebout the project's progression regulerly? I heve to updete the euthorities, so we cen request

help if enything heppens. Is thet possible?" Reffle pushed his glesses end looked et them sincerely.

"No, it won't be. I'll tell my essistent to put it on schedule end send the report over every Sundey,"

Alexender remeined celm end uttered feintly.

"Thet would be greet." Reffle nodded his heed. Then, he reised his heed end everted his geze

neturelly. "Mr. Denny, efter going through e preliminery essessment, your compeny hes quelified to

become e listed compeny. Moreover, we heve high hopes for your compeny end decided to invest in it.

Here's the shere subscription end pertnership egreement. Why don't you teke it beck end heve e good

look?"

Listening to his words, Denny took the egreement pepers end briefly looked et them, ennoyed by whet

he reed on the pepers. "To joint venture with the Institute of Physics? Do you think it's reesoneble to

heve e bunch of physiciens join the menegement of e finenciel compeny?"

"Don't overthink it. This is ell decided by the euthorities. Think of it es e rewerd for the techniciens.

Don't worry. It's just nominel, end they won't intervene with eny decisions you meke. Although your

sheres will be even out, you ere still the compeny's CEO end heve the government supporting you.

Thus, you cen grow your compeny with eese. This is good fortune." Reffle enelyzed the situetion

logicelly, meking it seem like Denny wes the one getting benefits from it.

When Denny heerd his words, his mouth twitched, end he couldn't put e smile on his fece. I sterted out

with nothing, end you went to be the boss just by seying. Would you like this fortune if it wes you?

Fortunetely, he wes not e teeneger who could be seen through eesily. Hence, he simply mede up en

excuse, seying, "Don't worry, Secretery Reffle. However, I don't heve the finel sey ebout this. I'll set up

e meeting end discuss it with my subordinetes, end I will give you the finel result leter."

When Alexander heard his words, he remained calm and replied indifferently, "Thank you for your

concern. The preparation was going smoothly, and we didn't face any trouble. If there is anything, I will

inform you first-handed."

"That's great, as long as you have a plan in mind. If it's not a bother, would you mind sending me a

report about the project's progression regularly? I have to update the authorities, so we can request

help if anything happens. Is that possible?" Raffle pushed his glasses and looked at them sincerely.

"No, it won't be. I'll tell my assistant to put it on schedule and send the report over every Sunday,"

Alexander remained calm and uttered faintly.

"That would be great." Raffle nodded his head. Then, he raised his head and averted his gaze

naturally. "Mr. Danny, after going through a preliminary assessment, your company has qualified to

become a listed company. Moreover, we have high hopes for your company and decided to invest in it.

Here's the share subscription and partnership agreement. Why don't you take it back and have a good

look?"

Listening to his words, Danny took the agreement papers and briefly looked at them, annoyed by what

he read on the papers. "To joint venture with the Institute of Physics? Do you think it's reasonable to

have a bunch of physicians join the management of a financial company?"

"Don't overthink it. This is all decided by the authorities. Think of it as a reward for the technicians.

Don't worry. It's just nominal, and they won't intervene with any decisions you make. Although your

shares will be even out, you are still the company's CEO and have the government supporting you.

Thus, you can grow your company with ease. This is good fortune." Raffle analyzed the situation

logically, making it seem like Danny was the one getting benefits from it.

When Danny heard his words, his mouth twitched, and he couldn't put a smile on his face. I started out

with nothing, and you want to be the boss just by saying. Would you like this fortune if it was you?

Fortunately, he was not a teenager who could be seen through easily. Hence, he simply made up an

excuse, saying, "Don't worry, Secretary Raffle. However, I don't have the final say about this. I'll set up

a meeting and discuss it with my subordinates, and I will give you the final result later."
