Bring Your A Game Mr Chapter 1058

Bring Your A Game Mr Chapter 1058-“You used up all your chances.”

The more Stenson struggled, the faster the sedative that had been applied to the silver needle would take action.

Stenson was stupefied. He couldn’t believe that he had lost to a weak and helpless woman.

Elise didn’t plan on taking Stenson’s life as her kids would not be able to have a normal life if she and the Hellens were engaged in an unresolvable grudge that led to the constant cycle of vengeance.

It was always good to never let things go too far. She thought of it as a way out for herself too.

Once Stenson fell unconscious, Elise fished out a bunch of keys from his pocket and headed for the door.

She was about to open the door when the metal grill outside swung open.

Elise paused as she met the gaze of Owen who was coming in.

Owen’s hand remained on the grill as his eyes flickered between the keys in her hand and Stenson who was lying unconscious on the ground. He cocked his eyebrow in amusement. “I didn’t think you’d be able to overpower that punk. Looks like I’ve underestimated you after all.”

“You say you love me but is this how you show it?” Elise didn’t forget to keep up the act as she questioned him like a petulant woman throwing a tantrum.

“You have no one but yourself to blame. You were too useless. Not only did you fail to help me with anything, but the only time you managed to glean some information resulted in me suffering a heavy loss. A woman like you who can only survive by leeching off others isn’t any better than garbage. You

should’ve been tossed out from the start.” Owen dropped all his former pretense of gentleness and cordiality. His attitude became cold and indifferent.

“What about you then? Someone who works together with sc*m like Stenson,” Elise scoffed as she raised her eyebrow mockingly.

“What a sharp tongue.” Owen’s expression hardened and his eyes darkened. “It seems to me that the gentle and naive persona you had in front of me was all a lie.”

“Back at you. You’re just the pot calling the kettle black. Didn’t you also pretend to be righteous and sincere with your feelings, Mr. Morgan? Aren’t you also showing your true colors now?” Elise retorted matter-of-factly. Her eyes seemed to sparkle with a warm light that dispelled all coldness.

As it was, the temperature inside the dugout was lower than outside, and after looking into Elise’s eyes, Owen felt the temperature dropping even lower.

For some reason, he felt as if there was an unbreakable barrier between him and this woman in front of him. She stood under the light, and the warmer and more dazzling she was, the darker and colder his world got.

Owen had the same feeling when he was in Alexander and Elise’s presence. It was a feeling that represented the clear division between light and darkness. Even as he sensed it now from Anastasia, it felt oh-so-familiar and unsettling.

He didn’t believe that these many people were born righteous.

Owen couldn’t figure out why he got this feeling from her yet, so he quelled his emotions and changed the subject. “There’s no point in bringing up the past. Let’s talk about something a little more cheerful. I’d only just driven off when I received some good news. Someone told me that you’re pregnant.”

His gaze fell onto Elise’s belly.

“I wish,” Elise replied with a straight face. “Do you think Alexander would let a woman who has given birth to someone else’s children give birth to his child too?”

Elise had already taken her baby’s safety into account and she was certain that even if she admitted it outright, Owen wouldn’t do anything to the child. Triune was after Alexander and Smith Co. In comparison to threats like that, a baby who wasn’t even born yet would not be worth targeting.

If she had appeared as Elise Sinclair, then perhaps the baby could be used to blackmail her.

But her identity now was Anastasia White, and she was simply a pregnant woman who posed no threat to Triune. Not only would they not do anything to her, but they would even do their best to protect her to avoid harming Alexander’s child.

Even if no one had told Owen about this, Elise would’ve made sure he knew.

Triune had been waiting for a trump card they could use to control Alexander. Thus, she and Alexander were going to deliver this trump card to Owen themselves.

“That doesn’t matter. All I need is for Alexander to believe that you’re pregnant. You know, you do look more pleasant to the eyes when you’re useful.” Owen was pleased to see the flicker of fear in Elise’s eyes.

“You’ve already kidnapped me for half a day now. Do you think you can still escape from Alexander with me in tow?” Elise didn’t cease her attempts to rile Owen up.

“Hah! Why do you think I brought you here? Do you think it was just to show that punk my sincerity?”

Owen pointed at Stenson. His eyes flashed menacingly as he stated, “He’s just a pawn I used to distract Alexander. The video of him carrying you into the dugout has already been sent to Alexander’s

people. Soon, the Hellens and Smith Co. will be engaged in an all-out battle, and when the time comes, do you think I won’t be able to go anywhere I want?”

He was simply playing both ends against the middle. It was payback.

“Is that how you treat your partners?” Elise found it laughable.

“All partnerships are built on the basis of two people being on equal footing.” Owen had his way of justifying himself. “Do you think that dim-witted simpleton is someone on equal footing with me?”

“In your eyes, do you think that it’s fine to betray anyone at all, as long as it gets you what you want?” Elise’s gaze was cold.

“Of course,” Owen admitted it freely. His expression grew icy as well. “I’m not a fool like Stenson who’d give you the chance to fight back. Be a good girl and follow me, or else, both you and the baby will only get to meet each other when you reunite in hell!” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

That was exactly what Elise had been waiting for. “Fine. I’ll go with you.”

…

There was no clear shot of the person who took Elise and the men from Smith Co. had to run around and search the entire city like headless chickens.

Just as everyone was beginning to think that they wouldn’t find anything, a text sent them into action.

It was just a five-second clip that showed Stenson carrying an unconscious woman into an underground shelter.

The video had been shot from an angle that made it possible for them to see Elise’s face.

After the video, there was a follow-up text with a location which was undoubtedly the underground shelter.

All at once, everyone rushed over to the dugout.

Narissa was the nearest so she was the first to arrive on the scene.

The Hellens’ subordinates were useless and she managed to storm past the guards without even breaking a sweat.

One of the more spineless subordinates led her to Stenson, but as soon as she got there, she found that it was empty with only a pool of fresh blood on the floor. The table and chairs were in disarray. It looked as if a fight had taken place inside the room.

Narissa knocked out the man who showed her the way before dipping her fingers into the blood to test it.

It hasn’t congealed. They haven’t gotten far yet.

She quickly left and went in the other direction.

At last, Narissa crossed paths with her target in a storage room with four exits.

A bunch of men were shielding an unconscious Stenson and were about to leave through the tunnel opposite her.

“Hold it! You stay right there!”

Bang! Bang! Bang!
