Bring Your A Game Mr Chapter 1072

Bring Your A Game Mr Chapter 1072-“What do you mean? He had been doing great when Elise wasn’t around for the past seven years.” Love-related matters didn’t cross Danny’s mind at all.

“It’s different now.”

“How is it different?”

“You won’t understand. Take him somewhere else. If we let him sleep here, he might catch a cold.”

“Alright.”

Although Danny wasn’t emotionally intelligent, he was considered tactful. He knew that Ariel must have had her reasons for not making it clear to him. As such, he stopped probing further and did as he was told with a smile. When it was necessary, she would let him know the truth.

…

After leaving Griffith Manor, Narissa looked around. Then, she moved in a different direction and entered Zephyr’s house.

Instead of stepping into the main hall, she headed straight to the basement.

Zephyr’s basement was both an operating room and a research center. Unlike Irvin, the man loved an isolated space.

When Narissa arrived at the door, she saw Zephyr arranging several medicine bottles on the shelf.

Instead of going in, she stood there and observed him in silence. She watched as the man arranged the medicine bottles with his bony fingers.

As though oblivious to her presence, Zephyr continued putting on an act.

A while later, he was the first to break the silence. “Are you done watching me?”

He put down the last glass bottle and turned around to meet the woman’s eyes accurately. “What’s the matter?”

“I’m wondering if you’re mentally strong or if you’re indeed unafraid of death. Do you understand that once you leave Smith Co., you’ll be doomed?”

Regardless of what that person was trying to extort from Zephyr, once Danny chased him out, he would become of no use.

A valueless pawn would only end up in hell.

Alexander was unconscious while Elise was in captivity. Certainly, Narissa wanted to protect Zephyr on their behalf, but she knew nothing about the man, so how was she supposed to save him?

“I’m not guilty of anything. For those who don’t believe me, it’s pointless to say more. I’ll bear all the consequences, so you’d better not meddle in it.” Zephyr sounded distant and impassive as he wanted the woman to stay out of it.

“You told me not to act tough back then, but now, you’re the one acting strong.” An impatient Narissa turned around and left.

Zephyr hung his head low and fell silent for a moment before shifting his attention to a container in the corner. “Since you’re here, just cut to the chase. Stop wasting my time, will you?”

The next moment, Matthew stepped out from behind the container and stared at him darkly. “I’m running out of patience. Alexander must die in three days!”

“As you can see, they’re suspicious of me. Are you trying to get me killed by forcing me to make a move now?”

Matthew took a deep breath and straightened up before saying matter-of-factly, “A life for a life. It’s fair, isn’t it? Do you want that woman to die for you?”

Zephyr sneered. “If I die, she won’t live either.”

“That’s none of my concern. You have to know that if you turn me down or refuse to make a decision, she’ll get killed immediately.”

Matthew crossed his arms and circled the man while threatening him. He said, “She’s such a beautiful woman. She’s just like an epiphyllum, but if her life is as short as one, that’ll be a shame.”

Zephyr’s hands in his pockets balled into fists as he gritted his teeth. A sense of ruthlessness flashed across his eyes.

Nevertheless, it only took him a short moment to pull himself together. As though having decided to stop struggling, he said, “I’ll grant your wish. Please let her live. However, before I make a move, I have to see her for the last time. Only then will I go to hell without regrets.” NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

“She’s in my hands, so you don’t have the right to bargain for anything.” Matthew wasn’t willing to give in as he was wary of the man.

“I’ll die sooner or later. If you don’t even let me see her for the last time, what’s the point of me taking such a huge risk for you? Why don’t you just kill her now? I’ll keep her company in hell, and you’ll never achieve your goal!” Zephyr appeared domineering and unyielding, so no one could underestimate him.

“You—” Matthew was ready to fall out with him, but he swallowed his words. He then tried to ease the tension with a smile. “Stop being mad, Dr. Lorwhal. There’s room for discussion. It’s only natural that you want to see her for the last time. Why don’t both of us make a concession? I’ll find someone the both of us trust to go over on your behalf and let you see her through a video call. What do you say?”

“Okay.” Zephyr knew he mustn’t cross the line, so he didn’t press on.

“Alright, I’ll make some arrangements now. However, since I’ve granted your wish, you’re supposed to do the same for me by returning the favor. Don’t you agree?” Matthew pressed.

“Go on.” Zephyr had given up the struggle.

“I have to kill Alexander with my own hands,” Matthew said through clenched teeth.

“Okay.” Zephyr directly agreed to it.

“Alright. I’ll contact you again.”

An elated Matthew then strode out of the place.

After he climbed over the wall, Narissa emerged from a corner.

She took a look at the basement, then glanced in the direction Matthew was leaving. Finally, she realized what kind of trouble Zephyr was facing.

Turns out Matthew is the one blackmailing Zephyr. He’s threatening Zephyr with his lover’s life, forcing him to kill Alexander. How vicious of him!

She was curious about the woman, who was important enough to make Zephyr willingly sacrifice his life.

She didn’t have time to ponder on it. Worried that she might lose track of Matthew, she promptly ran after him.

On the other hand, Matthew gave Yosef a call while on the way. An hour later, they met up at a remote dock.

“Why did you make me come all the way here in the middle of the night?” Yosef received the man’s call when he was sound asleep, so it was only natural that he was annoyed.

Nevertheless, Matthew only looked at the sea in silence.

A moment later, a cargo ship slowly approached the dock amidst the darkness and stopped in front of them.

“Get onboard.”

Matthew told Yosef to board the ship before doing the same.

Once they were on board, the vessel started leaving the dock.

Narissa noticed a chance. Since the ship was moving slowly, she dove into the sea and climbed onto the ship before sneaking into the cabin.

On the deck, Yosef pulled his coat tighter around him and questioned the man again, “You have to tell me where we’re going. I left home in a hurry while wearing such thin clothes. Are you trying to freeze me to death?”

“If you’re afraid of the cold, just stay inside the cabin. You’ll find out when we arrive.” Matthew refused to break it to him.

He had to take Yosef by surprise so that Zephyr wouldn’t have a chance to tail them.

“Mind your attitude, Matthew. Don’t forget that if I hadn’t taken you in, you would’ve starved to death after Alexander chased you out. You’re such an ungrateful brat. You’d better make sure the trip will be worth it. Otherwise…” He snorted.

After chastising the man, Yosef turned around and shuffled toward the cabin.

Narissa hurriedly opened the partition and snuck into the cargo hold to hide.

Still, the moment Matthew entered the cabin, he saw the water stains on the ground.
