Bring Your A Game

Bring Your A Game Mr Chapter 987-Alexia told her mother all about how she tried to drug Zephyr only for the plan to backfire on her fully. Elise thought that was, to an extent, too much. Narissa and Zephyr had already patched up in a sense.

“Lexi, did you forget what I taught you? Never meddle with anyone’s affairs unless they explicitly ask for your help, and never try to hurt anyone.”

Her children’s education was a pivotal part of their lives. The very thing that would shape their futures, and she would not slack on it. Alexia was almost eight. No longer could she hide behind the pretense of innocence and shirk all responsibility. Elise knew it was time to teach her about accountability, and she had to do it because Alexander loved the girl too much to even chastise her.

“I’ve never forgotten about it, Mommy.” Despite the growing itch, Alexia listened to her mother.

Elise too wanted to pamper her daughter, but she had to be firm and stern. “Then, you know what you should do.”

The girl pursed her lips and thought about her next course of action carefully. She then turned to Zephyr. “I’m sorry, mister. I shouldn’t have pranked you.”

Oh, now I have an excuse to back down. The whole reason he stubbornly put his foot down on this was because of Alexander and Narissa meddling with the matter, not because of the child. Now that he could finally settle this amicably, he played along. “You’re forgiven, but I have to say sorry as well. It was a bit too heavy-handed of me, but I hope you’ve learned your lesson. Stay safe. Here’s the cure. Spray it on your wrist and it’ll stop the itch.”

Alexander snatched the cure and picked his daughter up before they went upstairs.

“Sorry for that,” Elise said sheepishly. “He didn’t mean to yell at you. Just worried about the girl, that’s all.”

“Understandable.” Zephyr shrugged the matter off. “If I had a daughter like yours, I’d have been more worried about her than he was.”

“I’d better check on them. You guys do whatever.”
