Bring Your A Game, Mr

Chapter 509 It Has Nothing to Do With Her

The two security guards argued, “She’s right. Why are you doing this? We are not buying any of this!”

“Why am I doing this?” The manager switched to a more professional tone. “I’m doing this because you

had just confronted the owner of this mall!”

“The owner?” The two security guards exchanged looks and asked with uncertainty, “Are you saying

that these two students here are the owners of this mall? Impossible! The company’s general manager

is clearly a man whose last name isn’t Fassbender!”

“It hasn’t been so since five minutes ago!” The manager raised his volume as he spoke in an

unmistakable tone.

“What did you just say?” Celina was shocked. “Athesea’s largest mall has changed ownership in a

matter of minutes?”

“It’s all thanks to you that we were able to sell the mall five times its market value,” he responded

lightly.

“Five times? Are you crazy?” Her jaw dropped in disbelief.

Ignoring her reaction, the manager turned toward Elise and Joey before bowing to request for their

instructions. “Miss Sinclair and Miss Fassbender, is there anything I can help you two with?”

“I don’t want anyone to affect my shopping mood.” Elise looked at Celina and sought revenge.

“That’s right. Ask this woman to leave and never allow her to enter again,” Joey added.

Since they were all females, Elise didn’t mean to make the situation look that bad, but it was too late to

do anything once Joey had given her orders.

“Don’t you dare!” Celina stood with her arms akimbo, trying to remain fierce.

“What are you waiting for? Follow the boss’ orders!” The manager shouted until his voice had

completely covered Celina’s, ruthlessly changing the situation.

In an instant, the two security guards rushed toward Celina and dragged her out of the store.

“Let me go! How dare you treat me like this! I won’t forgive you all for this! Ahhh!”

The woman’s scream echoed throughout the entire mall. The two security guards earlier had also lost

their balance as they kneeled on the floor.

Once Celina was dragged away, the store finally returned to its usual quietness.

The manager was perceptive and sharp-witted enough to ask, “Then… What should we do about Miss

Anderson?”

Faye’s neck was tense as her eyes darted frantically, but she was quick to return to her usual

condescending attitude. “You don’t need to worry about me. I will leave by myself.”

She paused for a brief moment and continued with her ruthless words, “Elise, you’re surrounded by

enemies now. When someone comes to exact revenge upon you in the future, don’t come crying in

front of my doorstep!”

Elise shrugged her shoulders and replied, “Then, you better live long enough to witness it. Otherwise,

according to the current average age, you won’t be able to witness that day.”

Faye clenched her fist so tightly that her nails were digging into her palm. After glaring at Elise for two

seconds, she turned around and left in anger.

“Stand right there!!” Joey had dragged her voice so that the security guards by the entrance understood

her intention for them to stop Faye.

“Put down what you have just bought,” Joey insisted.

“I paid for this!” Faye gritted her teeth in hatred.

“So what? I’m not short on money, so if you want, I’ll even pay you back double. In short, I don’t want

my mall doing business with people like you!” Joey tilted her head.

She wanted to make a scene where Faye and Celina couldn’t do anything about their situation no

matter how angry those two were.

“Very well. Elise, I’ll remember what you did to me today!”

Faye shook her head several times before dropping her shopping bags onto the floor with a thud and

left.

“You—Why are you holding a grudge against her? I’m the one bullying you! If you want to seek

revenge, remember to target me! Hey!”

Joey continued to shout at Faye as Faye walked away from the store at an increasing pace.

“Tsk!” Joey waved her hand and sneered. “She only knows how to pick on the weak ones to bully!”

After that, she turned around and saw Elise’s indifferent expression before apologizing, “I’m sorry that

I’ve caused you some trouble…”

”It’s fine.” Elise smiled. “I can’t help that the person whom I want to protect is such a resentful one.”

“Huh?” Joey was stunned for a second before remembering that she had subconsciously referred to

Elise as her guardian angel, so she blushed and hurriedly excused herself. “I’m going to pick a dress

now!”

As she watched Joey running off, Elise couldn’t help but reveal a satisfied smile. Even though she is a

grown woman, I never knew that she has such a shy side.

…

It was time for the banquet in the blink of an eye.

Elise and Joey had arrived at the Anderson Residence by car.

The moment they exited the car, they could immediately see a delicately decorated manor which

looked solemn and grand. One could easily notice that the Anderson Family had spent a lot of effort on

this event.

On each side of the main road, there were a row of servants greeting the guests in a line all the way

until a handmade grass-arch. Below the grass-arch stood Faye and Austin.

Jeanie and Bertha were nowhere to be seen.

On the outside, the banquet seemed like the highest level of courtesy, but Elise knew clearly that it was

just another ruthless trap set for her.

As she walked halfway to the door, Faye came forward to greet Elise cheerfully by linking arms and

pressing her cheeks on Elise’s, which made them look closer in front of the guests.

Elise acted accordingly with a fake smile but whispered, “What a nice act that you’re putting up.”

Faye retained her elegant composure and gave another fake smile. “I have prepared a big surprise for

you. Aren’t you excited, my dear Elise?”

“I am.” Elise lowered her eyes to glance at her dress and thoughtfully added, “If I remember correctly,

this dress was one of the collections in last year’s fashion week. Don’t you think it’s a bit outdated? I

don’t think it’s suitable to wear something like this to a grand event.”

Without waiting for Faye’s response, she seemed to realize something as she followed up with a tease.

“Oh, I remember now. Looks like someone couldn’t get her hands on one of the latest fashions. Am I

right?”

Faye’s expression changed as she gritted her teeth, but she managed not to lose her composure.

If it weren’t for Elise and Joey who had bought all the best branded clothing stores in the city, Faye

wouldn’t have to wear this outdated dress to make up for it.

Therefore, she squinted her eyes with hatred. I’ll allow you to smile for now, but let’s see who will be

laughing later!

Thinking of how Elise would embarrass herself later on, Faye calmed herself down. After that, she

moved aside to make way for Elise. “Come with me. Dad is waiting for you.”

As both ladies reached the arch, Austin took a step forward and tried to hold Elise’s hand. However,

she avoided him and stepped aside to face the guests.

A hint of awkwardness flashed through his face, but since they were in public, he silently retracted his

expression.

“Ladies and gentlemen, please allow me to introduce my daughter—Yoona! She has been living

abroad for the past few years and has just returned recently. Since there are a lot of things she isn’t

familiar with yet, I hope that all the members and friends of the Anderson Family here with us today will

take good care of her in the future.”

The crowd applauded while Elise nodded her head with gratitude.

Even her simple greeting was enough to attract unwanted commotion.

“So, she is the Anderson Family’s long lost daughter! I didn’t expect her to look so delicate while

growing up outside the Anderson Family’s care.”

“How is that not possible? She is the crown jewel of the family. Although the older daughter of the

Anderson Family also has a pretty face, she instantly looks average when compared to Elise’s

appearance.”
