Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 56

Chapter 56 Do My Best

Elise leaned back in her seat and slowly closed her eyes while Alexander gazed at the sleeping lady from the rear mirror with a faint, yet heartwarming smile. As soon as Elise got home, she immediately turned on her laptop and hacked into the computer in Alexander’s office to erase all the data trails she left behind earlier that afternoon.

When Elise was done with that, she proceeded to translate Aris’ documents for Alexander until midnight. Then, she sent the first completed document to Alexander, who responded with a text message not long after. ‘You’re super efficient! For that, I think you should be rewarded with a pay raise.’

However, Elise felt speechless with the man’s response because she was going to repay Alexander’s favor anyway. After all, she believed everything came at a price. Therefore, while she was helping Alexander as a gesture to repay his kindness, there was still no reason for her to offer her service without charging him.

‘Well, my efficiency depends on the pay, and you pay me well.’ Elise replied to Alexander’s message just as the latter sat in front of his monitor screen with a smile. Deep down, he began to find this mysterious translator rather interesting.

‘Don’t worry. You’ll be paid handsomely.’ Alexander responded with another text message before he sent another one. ‘Send me your account number. I’ll make the transfer right away.’

 

Stunned by the man’s response, Elise blinked in disbelief. Really? This seems easier than I thought. Although she was recently in desperate need of money, she knew she mustn’t let Alexander know her true identity. Therefore, she gave the man a proxy account number not long before she received a notification. “One, two, three, four, five… One million!” Elise was caught in a trance, wondering if Alexander was really so generous.

‘Thank you so much, Boss!’ Elise replied, whereupon she transferred the money from her proxy account to her own one.

 

After Elise was done with her business, she was about to log out of the intranet, only to receive Alexander’s message before she could do so. ‘We’re going to do a site inspection at Aris. Would you be interested in taking on the job as an on-site interpreter by then?’

Confused and undecided, Elise settled to pretend as if she didn’t see his message and went to bed right away, since she didn’t signify her intention. In the meantime, Alexander waited and waited until the lady went offline. Sensing the mysterious translator’s refusal to show herself, he reckoned she was likely just trying to protect her own privacy and reluctantly chose to respect that. After all, he didn’t think it was a big deal as long as she didn’t do anything that could jeopardize the company’s interest.

The next morning was a Monday, yet Elise happened to be running late for class. As she hurriedly scurried to her classroom, her math teacher was seen to be in the middle of a lesson. “Can I come in?” Elise braced herself to accept the teacher’s scolding, as it was known among the students that she didn’t take kindly to anyone who was late for her class.

Nonetheless, the math teacher only responded with a smile and greeted her. “Yes, please!” After hearing what her teacher said, Elise was stunned as she slowly walked into the classroom.

“That’s unfair. Our math teacher is obviously biased toward her. How could she be allowed to enter the class just like that?”

“Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Well, what do you expect? She is the teacher’s favorite student, so of course, she is going to enjoy all the ‘privilege’.”

While the two students leaned closer to each other and talked behind Elise’s back, she had completely no idea what they were gossiping about. Nonetheless, she just went straight to her seat and sat down just when her math teacher subtly gave her a strange gesture. “Well, since Elise is already here, I have something important to announce.”
