Bring Your A Game, Mr

Chapter 163 Make Sure That He Will Never Return

Upon noticing the current situation, the manager was just as troubled. As the fire had been too sudden,

they were forced to request for empty rooms from the neighboring hotels, so the number of rooms

available were limited. Not that only Elise and Alexander, a single man and woman, were the ones left, it

was difficult to make sleeping arrangements for them.

“Miss, please don’t be anxious. We will think of another way out for you two…”

Elise hummed in agreement and waited for further arrangements whereas Alexander’s eyes darkened as

he maintained his silence.

The manager approached them with an apologetic look after making a few calls. “Sir, madam, I’m very

sorry. We really don’t have any other rooms.”

At this moment, Alexander decisively answered, “Give the room to her instead! I’ll think of another

alternative.”

Upon hearing his approval, the manager quickly passed the last room card to Elise. “Madam, why don’t

you head to the room first?”

Elise accepted the room card from him. If she hadn’t known Alexander, she would’ve taken the key card

and left the scene.

However, she had known him for a long time and he even helped her out before. Hence, she couldn’t

bring herself to leave just like that. After she thought about it, she asked, “Mr. Griffith, since other rooms

are unavailable, would you like to stay in the same room as me for the time being?”

However, Alexander rejected her almost subconsciously. “It’s fine. I will find another hotel to stay at.”

When she heard his answer, Elise was slightly disappointed for the weirdest reason. She was actually

looking forward to sharing the same room as Alexander and once she realized her thoughts, she abruptly

knocked on her head. What the hell were you thinking, Elise?

On the other hand, Alexander was shocked by her sudden movement. “What are you doing, Miss

Sinclair?”

She quickly explained, “Nothing. Mr. Griffith, it’s just that it’s highly unlikely that other hotels will still have

vacant rooms at this hour. Are you sure you want to leave?”

He slightly narrowed his eyes. “Miss Sinclair, is this an invitation?”

Elise had the urge to bite her tongue off and immediately denied his question. “Mr. Alexander, you have

misunderstood me. I just feel sorry that you have nowhere else to go; it’s pitiful. It’s only 2:00AM, so how

are you going to spend the rest of the night?”

The manager, who was standing beside them, finally realized that these two were acquainted with each

other. Apart from that, she was extending a warm invitation to Alexander, which was an obvious

indication of her interest in the man.

The guy is handsome whereas the girl is beautiful. When they stand together, they look compatible with

each other.

Hence, the manager also wanted to help these two out, so he couldn’t help himself from saying, “Sir, the

hotels near us are all fully booked right now. Only this hotel has the last room. I really think you should

put up with it for one night.”

Elise was shocked that he would say something like this, but she could only turn her attention to

Alexander to see his reaction. Alexander raised his head to meet her gaze and when they locked eyes,

he actually thought he saw a glimpse of his fiancee when he looked at Joy in front of him.

He had no idea what had possessed him, but he gently hummed in agreement.

As a result, both Elise and Alexander brought the room card to the hotel next door with one trailing after

the other. No one had uttered a word throughout the entire journey; it was only until they arrived at their

new hotel room that he suddenly returned to his senses, but he had no way out at this moment.

“You should enter first,” she broke the silence as she opened the door. His eyes narrowed slightly before

he started to walk into the room.

Once the door was closed, she pointed at the two beds in the room. “You’ll sleep on the bed closer to the

door while I’ll sleep on the inner one.”

Then, a self-conscious Elise climbed into her bed and tucked herself under the blanket so that she was

tightly wrapped in the sheets with only her head being revealed. “Let’s go to bed soon.”

It was as though she was trying to say aloud that she wouldn’t do anything to Alexander.

He was amused upon seeing her reaction; even his facial complexion was much better compared to the

moment when he had entered the room. He looked at the bed in front of him and casually lay on it.

After the long night, Elise was suddenly wide awake after her initial tiredness. She looked at the ceiling

above her as she quietly counted sheep in her head. However, even after she had done so, it wasn’t

enough to make her fall asleep. “Mr. Griffith?”

She tried to gently call him, to which a soft reply came. Although Alexander’s voice was soft, she knew

that he was still not asleep yet.

“You can’t sleep as well? Me too…” she said as she turned around to face him.

He had no idea what had possessed him. For a man who was used to sleeping alone, he was unable to

fall asleep now that another person was in the same room as him. “If you can’t sleep, just close your

eyes and rest. You will fall asleep in no time,” he whispered before he immediately closed his eyes.

However, Alexander had no clue why he had suddenly remembered a scene from the party at the

Lawson Family where he slept on the same bed as Elise. The familiar scene was forever etched in his

mind, causing him to suddenly open his eyes a second later.

Then, he looked like he was searching for an excuse when he uttered, “I’m heading to the balcony to

have some fresh air.”

With that, he immediately cast the blanket aside and got up to walk to the balcony.

As Alexander stood on the balcony to gaze at the city deep in the night, he suddenly took out his phone.

While staring at a familiar number, he actually had the urge to call Elise at this very moment. It is already

so late, though. She is probably asleep.

He tightly clenched his phone and paused before he returned to the room.

“Mr. Griffith, is this your first time sleeping with a woman?” a curious Elise asked casually while awaiting

his reply.

Alexander replied without thinking, “No.”

It was only one word, but it was enough to make her feel jealous. He said ‘no’. It means that he has slept

with other women. Maybe he even had intimate behaviors with them.

As soon as Elise thought about this, she felt that even her breath became uneven.

“Is it with your girlfriend?” As soon as she blurted out the question, she wanted to bite her tongue off

again.

However, Alexander replied coolly, “Miss Sinclair, you ask too many questions.”

Elise couldn’t help speculating about this. The embarrassment she felt earlier had now completely

disappeared and in fact, it was replaced by her guesses on the woman who slept with him.

Although Alexander looked at the ceiling above him, his mind was filled with Elise’s face. Unexpectedly, a

part of his body became slightly warm and his breathing became heavier.

He was shocked by his reaction, so he quickly took a deep breath and cleared his messy thoughts. It

was only after he had done so that his body gradually returned to normal.

“Miss Sinclair, sleep well.”

With that, he turned his back to her; when Elise saw this, she did the same and closed her eyes.

She was sound asleep for the remainder of the night. When she woke up the next morning, Alexander

was nowhere to be seen, which disappointed her as she looked at the wide room. The weather was

perfect as sunlight poured through the window into the room. Then, she stretched before she got out of

bed to brush her teeth.

As a result of the sudden fire last night, the hotel suffered quite a huge amount of loss. Luckily for them,

the fire was extinguished just in time to stop it from spreading—possibly something good out of the

misfortune.

As Elise’s room was not impacted by the fire, she took her luggage and decisively checked out after she

returned to her original hotel room.

Then, she directly drove her ostentatious sports car to the racing competition arena. The competition in

Tissote would be held here tonight and she was looking forward to it for the weirdest reason.

She parked her car in the basement parking lot and switched off the engine. However, she couldn’t

locate her keys at this moment and looked everywhere. As she couldn’t locate them, she thought that

she had left it somewhere else. Since she figured that she had a spare key at home, she stopped

searching for it. Unexpectedly, she heard a man’s voice just as she was about to exit the car.

“Are you sure that Alexander is also here?” he had asked.

Elise frowned when she heard Alexander’s name and subconsciously stopped all of her movements.

“He’s here and my men have already obtained his schedule. I’m sure he’ll appear at the racing arena

tonight. We just have to do something to his car by then to ensure that he never returns.”

“Didn’t our boss say that he just wanted to break Alexander’s leg, though? He never mentioned wanting

Alexander’s life.”
