Do My Best
Elise leaned back in her seat and slowly closed her eyes while Alexander gazed at the sleeping lady
from the rear mirror with a faint, yet heartwarming smile. As soon as Elise got home, she immediately
turned on her laptop and hacked into the computer in Alexander’s office to erase all the data trails she
left behind earlier that afternoon.
When Elise was done with that, she proceeded to translate Aris’ documents for Alexander until
midnight. Then, she sent the first completed document to Alexander, who responded with a text
message not long after. ‘You’re super efficient! For that, I think you should be rewarded with a pay
raise.’
However, Elise felt speechless with the man’s response because she was going to repay Alexander’s
favor anyway. After all, she believed everything came at a price. Therefore, while she was helping
Alexander as a gesture to repay his kindness, there was still no reason for her to offer her service
without charging him.
‘Well, my efficiency depends on the pay, and you pay me well.’ Elise replied to Alexander’s message
just as the latter sat in front of his monitor screen with a smile. Deep down, he began to find this
mysterious translator rather interesting.
‘Don’t worry. You’ll be paid handsomely.’ Alexander responded with another text message before he
sent another one. ‘Send me your account number. I’ll make the transfer right away.’
Stunned by the man’s response, Elise blinked in disbelief. Really? This seems easier than I thought.
Although she was recently in desperate need of money, she knew she mustn’t let Alexander know her
true identity. Therefore, she gave the man a proxy account number not long before she received a
notification. “One, two, three, four, five… One million!” Elise was caught in a trance, wondering if
Alexander was really so generous.
‘Thank you so much, Boss!’ Elise replied, whereupon she transferred the money from her proxy
account to her own one.
After Elise was done with her business, she was about to log out of the intranet, only to receive
Alexander’s message before she could do so. ‘We’re going to do a site inspection at Aris. Would you
be interested in taking on the job as an on-site interpreter by then?’
Confused and undecided, Elise settled to pretend as if she didn’t see his message and went to bed
right away, since she didn’t signify her intention. In the meantime, Alexander waited and waited until the
lady went offline. Sensing the mysterious translator’s refusal to show herself, he reckoned she was
likely just trying to protect her own privacy and reluctantly chose to respect that. After all, he didn’t think
it was a big deal as long as she didn’t do anything that could jeopardize the company’s interest.
The next morning was a Monday, yet Elise happened to be running late for class. As she hurriedly
scurried to her classroom, her math teacher was seen to be in the middle of a lesson. “Can I come in?”
Elise braced herself to accept the teacher’s scolding, as it was known among the students that she
didn’t take kindly to anyone who was late for her class.
Nonetheless, the math teacher only responded with a smile and greeted her. “Yes, please!” After
hearing what her teacher said, Elise was stunned as she slowly walked into the classroom.
“That’s unfair. Our math teacher is obviously biased toward her. How could she be allowed to enter the
class just like that?”
“Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Well, what do you expect? She is the teacher’s favorite student, so of course, she is
going to enjoy all the ‘privilege’.”
While the two students leaned closer to each other and talked behind Elise’s back, she had completely
no idea what they were gossiping about. Nonetheless, she just went straight to her seat and sat down
just when her math teacher subtly gave her a strange gesture. “Well, since Elise is already here, I have
something important to announce.”
Elise looked up, placing her gaze on the math teacher as she noticed the latter adjusting the glasses
on his nose bridge. Soon, the teacher happily made an announcement. “Elise’s extraordinary result in
the last Math Olympiad has been brought to the Education Ministry’s attention. Therefore, it has been
decided that Elise will represent Athesea to attend the Math Olympiad in Northcliff City, along with the
other representatives.”
As soon as the teacher made his announcement, the whole class cheered in surprise and excitement.
After all, the Math Olympiad that Elise was going to attend was a national competition in which she
would be competing against many other tough rivals. Meanwhile, those students, who were talking
behind her back a few moments ago, were instantly rendered speechless after hearing the news that
Elise was going to attend National Mathematics Olympiad, as they couldn’t challenge her extraordinary
talent.
“For the sake of Elise’s participation in the Math Olympiad, the Education Ministry will be organizing a
Math Olympiad boot camp that’ll take about half a month. Elise, please prepare yourself before you
report yourself at the venue in two days.” The math teacher’s words were like a stone falling into the
water, as it caused huge ripples on the surface. In the meantime, the entire class turned their attention
to Elise, only to notice the calm look on her face.
A boot camp, huh? That means I’ll be isolated, right? This seems like a perfect reason for me not to
stay at the Griffith Residence. Elise raised her eyebrows, finding the surprising turn of events
interesting deep down.
When the class was over, the math teacher summoned Elise to the office. “I have high hopes for you,
Elise. Therefore, I sincerely hope the boot camp will help you prepare better to score a resounding
triumph during the Math Olympiad. After all, this is no longer just about you, as the whole school is now
counting on you to make us proud. Needless to say, I wouldn’t want to pressure you too much. So, just
do it as if it is your normal exercise.” The math teacher nagged for the next few moments before giving
Elise two exercise books. “Please have a look at them. You could always come to me if you have any
questions.”
“Sure, thank you, Sir.” Elise carried the two books her math teacher gave her before going back to her
classroom.
“That’s awesome, Elise! I can’t believe you’re going to participate in the Mathematics Olympiad.
Actually, I heard that Zachary Newman from Cloverfield High would be taking part in this competition
too. This news is going viral across our school forum, and there are even some students who place
their bets on your results,” Mikayla said while showing her iPad to Elise.
Nevertheless, Elise only took a glimpse of the screen and asked, “Who is Zachary?”
Soon, Mikayla went on to answer her classmate’s question. “Zachary is a top student from Cloverfield
High and has always managed to score first place every year. In fact, he won first place last year when
he attended the Mathematics Olympiad; but because of you, he had to settle as the first runner-up this
year. However, most of the people in Cloverfield High believe that Zachary was only outmatched by you
because he had a high fever back then. Therefore, he swears to do better than you do this time in the
Mathematics Olympiad. That’s why many of us are betting on both of you.”
Deep down, Elise couldn’t help but find what those high-school kids were doing silly.
“Elise, I bet on you with half of my pocket money for this semester, so you must win.” Mikayla looked
Elise in the eye pitifully, but Elise only patted her head.
“Silly girl. What if you lose the bet?”
“Then I’m going to be broke for the rest of my days.” Mikayla tried to play on Elise’s sympathy.
While her friend seemed speechless, Mikayla added, “My future depends on you. So please do your
best, Elise.”
Upon hearing that, Elise helplessly nodded her head. “Alright, I’ll do my best.”
