Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 144

Chapter 144 As Long as You’re Happy

“Yes, my people have looked into it for quite some time but they didn’t find anything.”

Charlene’s expression darkened even more. “I understand.”

As she hung up on the call, her grip tightened around her phone.

“What’s wrong, Charlene? Are you okay?”

Charlene let out a scoff and shot her assistant a sharp glare. The one look was enough to send a shudder up her spine.

“What’s wrong, you say? Are you hoping for something to go wrong for me?”

The assistant quickly explained herself, “No, Charlene. I didn’t mean it like that.”

However, the woman wouldn’t give her a chance. “Just pack your things and leave now. I don’t want to see you ever again.”

With those words, Charlene lifted her chin high and stomped away pompously.

As she boarded her minivan, all she could think about was the fact that her people had failed to find even the slightest information on H. After all, H was clearly back in the industry, and she had to do something about it.

Wait a minute. Since H wrote a new song for Jack, that means they’re acquainted. If that’s the case, I’ll be able to find H as long as I keep an eye on Jack.

An idea popped up in Charlene’s mind as soon as she thought of that. If she couldn’t find anything on H, she’d definitely succeed if she kept an eye on Jack.

Meanwhile, Elise, who was still in class, had no idea about what happened. Seeing that her friend had been absent for the whole day, she sent Mikayla a text message after class. However, she never got a reply even after some time, and she didn’t think much of it either. Just then, her phone buzzed with a call.

“Boss, they’re back at it again.” Jamie’s voice rang in her ear. He was trying his best to track the other party, but they were too cunning indeed, so much that even someone as skilled as Jamie fell short to them as a rival.

“Just hold them back for now. I’ll be there right away.”

Elise hung up and told Danny to fill the teacher in on her early leave before she rushed to Ferry Building. Jamie had been dealing with them for the time being up until Elise’s arrival. After sitting down, Elise didn’t immediately begin to track them down. Instead, she tried to contact them.

‘What do you want?’ Elise wrote and sent it over. Then, she waited patiently for a reply. Not even two minutes passed when the other side responded with a smiley face emoji.

Jamie couldn’t hold back from cursing out loud, “Who the f*ck is this dumb*ss?!”

Elise knitted her brows. Her fingers ran across the keyboard as she typed, ‘I know you don’t mean any harm. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have continued talking to us for this long, am I right?’

The reply was yet another smiley face. This time, Elise was all out of patience.

“Boss, let’s just end it right now.”

Elise stared at the emoji replies; her eyes darkened as she sunk into thought. She continued the conversation as she launched another tab and started writing some code.

‘Do you know me?’ wrote Elise, but the other side didn’t reply for a long time.

At the same time, Elise had completed her code which she immediately planted into the other party’s system. A short moment later, their IP address was already in her hands. Just then, the other party replied, ‘I’ll be waiting for you.’

The reply was simple, and Elise instantly knew what it meant—they had done that on purpose.

They’d clearly figured out her actions and had intentionally exposed their IP address for her benefit.

“I’ll go with you, Boss,” Jamie suggested. However, the moment he said that, a line of words appeared on the screen. ‘I want you to come alone.’

Jamie felt like they were definitely planning something.
