Bring Your A Game Mr Chapter 1061

Bring Your A Game Mr Chapter 1061-Owen was about to drink his tea when he heard Wendy’s comment. His hand came to an abrupt halt and his smile froze.

“No matter how many fine qualities Alexander has, he’s too stubborn for his own good. Even if you fancy him, he might not be interested in Triune’s dealings,” he remarked meaningfully as he hinted at his discontent.

Ever since Owen could remember, he had been working toward the goal of destroying humanity. He didn’t let up on it for even a second, and it earned him the position he was in now.

He single-handedly planned the kidnapping of various physicists from different countries and framed others for it, which led to the conflict between the different countries and significantly halted the progress of science and technology in said countries.

It wouldn’t be amiss to say that Triune wouldn’t have gotten to where it was now if it hadn’t been for Owen. All along, Wendy had her eye on him as her successor.

However, Alexander had only risen in fame for a few years and Wendy was already starting to express her dissatisfaction with Owen. She kept picking on his faults and drawing comparisons between him and Alexander. She was both overtly and covertly implying that she was disappointed in him for being less than Alexander.

Owen knew full well just how intelligent Alexander was, but in the same way that Owen was born to conspire against humanity, Alexander would never have anything to do with Triune.

Regardless of how much admiration Wendy had for Alexander, the only thing she would get in return from him was her ruin and destruction.

I’m the only one who can bring Triune to new heights! I’m the one who can give her the ability to sit in that position and watch as humans fight among themselves.

My dear Miss Jennings, you’ve grown old now and you don’t even know who’s your most loyal follower!

Wendy eyed Owen with an indiscernible gaze before averting her eyes and saying calmly, “If you’re unconvinced, then prove to me that I didn’t choose the wrong person.”

Her tone was airy. It made it seem as if everything she said was perfectly reasonable.

Once she finished, she got up and left.

Owen’s hand began tightening around his cup until his knuckles were stretched thin, and with a loud crack, the cup shattered in pieces.

…

Another day passed. The moment the sun came up, Danny received a text from Suella.

‘The reports came back. You’re the one who got in bed with me.’

She included a photo of the final page of the DNA report that said the two samples were a match.

Before Danny could absorb the shocking information, Ariel snatched the phone away from him and called Suella. “What do you want?”

“Alicia has already told you. Thirty million. I won’t accept anything less,” Suella replied.

“Alright. Pick a time and location. We’ll sit down and discuss this in further detail,” Ariel readily answered before hanging up and tossing the phone back to Danny.

Danny caught the phone as he grumbled, “Why did you agree without even asking me first? I know very well that you’re the one I was holding before I lost consciousness. I wouldn’t have had— I wouldn’t have done anything with Suella!”

Even though a similar incident had happened in the past, Danny didn’t want Ariel to think that he was such a womanizer.

Furthermore, her unbothered attitude made him feel as if she didn’t care about him.

It was as if it didn’t matter to Ariel whether or not he cheated on her.

Ariel shrugged and said, “Exactly. Since you didn’t do anything, we can’t let this scheming woman get away with it. You got a problem with that?”

“I don’t get what you mean.” Even though Danny felt as if his intelligence was being questioned, he was also a lot more at ease now. At least, he now knew that Ariel did trust him.

“You’ll understand when the time comes.” Ariel yawned and headed toward the parking lot while saying, “There was a text in the chat group. The guys from Smith Co. are back. We should go home and rest. They can cover for us. We’ll crash soon if we don’t get some rest.”

Danny nodded and jogged over to the car to open the door for her before getting into the driver’s seat and driving off.

It had been several days since they last slept properly, so they did need to take a break.

One hour later.

When Danny and the others got back to Griffith Manor, the guys from Smith Co. had just arrived as well. Apart from Johnny and Melody, the rest were regular subordinates.

Danny led Johnny and Melody into the house, leaving the others outside to rest wherever they were.

“Except for those who need to remain in their places to keep the operations going, everyone else in Smith Co. has already headed out. Half of them have masked their identities and snuck into Wegas while the other half are camping out at all the various airports and transport hubs. I’m sure we’ll locate Mrs. Griffith soon,” Johnny reported on the present situation.

Johnny’s abilities were only second to Alexander, so Danny didn’t have any objections to his decision. Danny nodded in agreement and said, “We’re counting on all of you.”

As soon as they finished speaking, they heard the sound of heavy footsteps marching inward. Everyone turned to look and they were greeted with the sight of Raymond helping Clement in. One of Clement’s legs was wrapped up in a blood-soaked bandage. They were both covered in dirt and looked completely disheveled. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Melody frowned at once as her face morphed into a rare expression of concern.

“What happened?” Danny went forward to help out and Clement was finally able to stand straight.

“We kept heading north along the forest to find the Hellens’ newest stronghold. We were passing through a valley when we got ambushed. Clement shielded me from a boulder that was coming down on us, but his leg was caught under it instead. Nearly a third of our people were injured. We suffered a heavy loss!” Raymond had a look of guilt and self-blame.

Just then, Zephyr came downstairs and Danny quickly called out to him. “Come and take a look, Doc. A leg’s far too important. We can’t let anything happen to him!”

Clement was one of Smith Co.’s four best fighters. Danny wouldn’t know how to face Alexander if something happened to any of them!

Zephyr walked over and crouched down. He pressed a few spots along Clement’s calf. Clement’s face scrunched up in pain but he didn’t let out a single sound.

“His bone’s broken. I can try to set it back in place. If that doesn’t work, I can replace it with an artificial bone instead. It’s not a big deal.”

Everyone exhaled in relief when they heard the verdict.

“Do you know who did it?” Johnny took command of the situation and got straight to the point.

“It’s…” Raymond hesitated as he eyed Zephyr.

“It was people from Area X.” Clement opened his hand to let everyone see the pentagram insignia lying on his palm. He didn’t need to say what this meant.

All at once, everyone’s gaze fell on Zephyr. He came from Area X, and now that this happened, it was unsurprising for him to fall under suspicion.

Raymond had considered this and was worried about Clement’s leg, so that was why he hesitated and couldn’t say it outright.

However, Clement didn’t care about anything else other than the interests of Smith Co., so he came right out and said what he had to say.

Zephyr crossed his arms, but his expression didn’t change. “What’s the matter? Are you guys suspicious of me too?”

“What do you mean by ‘too’?” Danny asked.

“When Matthew escaped, Narissa looked at me the same way you guys are looking at me now.” Zephyr’s gaze swept across all their faces.

It would’ve been better if he hadn’t mentioned Matthew, but now that he did, it was as if he had opened Pandora’s box as everyone’s suspicions intensified.
