Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 145

Chapter 145 I’m Already in a Relationship

Elise became somewhat curious when the subject was brought up. “Where did you find this guy, Papa? His skills are actually better than mine!”

Quentin’s smile broadened when he heard Elise say so. “I just knew you would say that. That’s why I brought him here specially to introduce him to you,” he replied, before asking one of his bodyguards to call the person over.

Elise’s curiosity was piqued. About a few minutes later, a dashingly handsome man came up to them with a gentle smile on his lips.

“Owen, this is Elise whom I told you about,” said Quentin to the man.

Owen Morgan looked at Elise. Apparently, he never expected her to look like this; she seemed far from the stunning beauty as described by Quentin. A peculiar look flashed across his eyes, and Elise was perceptive enough to notice it. He said, “Nice to meet you, Miss Ellie.”

Elise nodded politely with a smile. “Nice to meet you too. I’m Elise Sinclair.”

Seeing how the pair introduced themselves in a stiffly formal manner, Quentin said with a smile, “You young people should be more energetic. It’s been so long since we last met, Ellie. You’ve changed a lot.”

However, Elise pouted her lips with a troubled expression. “Have you come to the point of loathing me, Papa?”

“Hahaha! What are you talking about, you little girl? I’d never loathe you.”

Owen chimed in, “Mr. Fassbender has always sung your praises in front of me, Miss Ellie. In his eyes, you’re undoubtedly the best person to ever exist.”

“You hear that, Ellie? I’ve been thinking about you all the time. You, on the other hand, have completely forgotten about me long ago, haven’t you? You heartless little girl.”

Elise stuck out her tongue in embarrassment. “I wouldn’t dare do that, Papa.”

Luckily, Quentin merely meant his words as a joke that he definitely didn’t take seriously. “How are you doing these days, Ellie? Anything interesting to talk to me about?”

Elise held Quentin’s arm and told him about the interesting things that had happened recently. The two walked into the mansion as they chatted, whereas Owen followed closely behind them.

Before this, Owen had only learned of Elise’s existence from Quentin, so he knew nothing about her looks and disposition. All he knew was that Quentin was very fond of this goddaughter of his, and that she had amazing skills as a hacker. After the previous two encounters, he had gained a fairly thorough understanding of her capabilities as a hacker.

“Owen!” Suddenly, Quentin called out to him.

“At your service, Mr. Fassbender.”

Quentin replied with a laugh, “Spare me the formalities, you. I just have something to discuss with you. Do you remember what I told you last time?”

Owen knew that Quentin wanted to fix him up with Elise, but he really had no feelings for her at all. Therefore, he played dumb by replying, “I’m sorry, but I’m afraid I don’t.”

Elise blushed with embarrassment, but she, of course, couldn’t take back what she had said. Therefore, she could only lie, “We’ve just started seeing each other, so our relationship isn’t steady yet. I’ll definitely bring him to meet you next time.”

Quentin couldn’t help but doubt whether Elise was telling the truth when he saw how serious she sounded. He had always thought highly of Owen, so he hoped that the latter and Elise could become a couple. However, if Elise already had a boyfriend, he couldn’t force her to break up with him. “Are you serious about it?”

Elise nodded vigorously.

Quentin turned to look at Owen apologetically, but the latter gave him a smile of relief. “It’s alright, Mr. Fassbender. I’m already honored to get to know Miss Sinclair. Perhaps she and I aren’t meant to be together.”

Quentin wasn’t convinced, though. “Ellie, if you really have a boyfriend, you should bring him to me and let me check on him for you.”

Elise was about to say something in reply when the bodyguard outside suddenly came in and reported, “Sir, someone forcibly broke into our turf, but we’ve successfully subdued the intruder. What are your orders?”

Quentin was not in the mood to deal with such things, of course. “Just leave him there for a while first. We’ll talk about it later.”

However, Elise suddenly recalled something and hurriedly stopped the bodyguard. She asked, “Is he a young man in his early 20s named Jamie Keller?”

The bodyguard answered, “He’s indeed in his early 20s, miss. As for his name, we haven’t had time to ask him about it.”

Elise checked the time. Figuring that it had to be Jamie, she then said to Quentin, “Please let him go at once, Papa. He’s my friend.”
