Bring Your A Game Mr Chapter 86

Thanks to You

The atmosphere was awkward, so Danny quickly broke the ice. “What did you get for Alexander, Ashlyn?”

Ashlyn felt embarrassed, but she stayed calm. “I hand picked this, Alexander. Please take it.” She thought he’d say something, but he still didn’t.

Jack and Danny glanced at each other. The old Jack would have stood up for Ashlyn, but tonight, he turned his head away and pretended that he saw nothing. Danny looked around to see if anyone could be of help. When he saw Elise, he quickly went up to her. “Boss, are you here to give Alexander your present?”

Elise was surprised Danny came to her. She was planning on giving Alexander the gift after the banquet, but since Danny already brought it up, she simply said, “Yes.” Then, she took the present out. “Here, Alexander. Happy birthday.”

Alexander looked at her, then at her present. For some reason, he wanted to know what her gift was, but he had to stay calm and collected. “Danny, take the gift.”

Danny quickly took Elise’s gift. He paused for a moment, then he took Ashlyn’s as well.

Ashlyn heaved a sigh of relief after her gift was taken. Unbeknownst to her, Alexander never wanted to take her gift.

Jack asked curiously, “What did you get him, Elise? Can we open it?” That does not seem cheap at all. Wow, she really does care about Alex.

However, before Elise could answer, Ashlyn said, “I got Alex a watch from Longines. Latest model, and it’s a limited edition too. Only three pieces are available worldwide.”

Danny praised, “Wow, that’s a nice gift. You must have spent a lot of money on it.”

Jack snorted. “I’m asking Elise, not you.”
