Chapter 285 Alexander Can’t Get Rid of Janice?,Coolest Girl in Town
Looking at him with an aloof face, Faye said, “It’s okay if you play around with other women, but you actually had the nerves to target a female student from Tissote University. Do you know how much public criticism you’d cause if anything happens? Where’s the girl?” Jonah gritted his teeth and spat. “She’s gone, and I’m not so dumb as to create trouble for myself.” “That’d better be true.” Still, she doubted his words and warned, “I don’t want to hear anymore negative news before the wedding. Don’t drag me along even if you want to ruin yourself!” Then, she left the spot in a huff with her heels clicking on the floor.
From far, Jonah stared at her back and was reminded of his emotionless discipline teacher from highschool, whereupon an icy stare flashed in his eyes. If he hadn’t had his eyes set on the wealth of the Andersons, he would have kicked this woman away. Just you wait and see how I’ll torture you after we get married. Meanwhile, the car drove out of the nightclub street, and Alexander’s eyes swept past the rearview mirror. “What do you plan to do with her?” Helplessly, Elise looked at Janice, who had passed out next to her, and said, “Let’s put her up in a hotel for the night.” She might as well go through with this good deed that she started. In this unfamiliar city, she couldn’t just simply drop Janice off anywhere.
Returning his eyes to the road, Alexander drove around the city center. In the end, he chose a hotel which looked rather safe. After getting a room, he walked in front and opened the door so that Elise could help Janice to the bed. Then, she went to the bathroom while he leaned on the TV console, picked up his cell phone, and started replying to work emails. It had been a rough night for Janice, and she gradually regained consciousness. In her daze, the light from the crystal lamp above her head blinded her eyes, and she couldn’t open them. Using her hand as a shield, she slowly sat up in the bed.
Alexander merely peered at her coldly and returned to his phone, pretending he hadn’t seen anything. However, Janice thought that she was dreaming when she saw him. After blinking a couple of times, she pinched herself hard on her arm to be sure that she was not dreaming. So, I’m really in the same room with Elise’s super cute boyfriend! “Are you the one who saved me from Johan Olsen?” she asked meekly. “Yeah,” he replied curtly without even looking up at her. Embarrassed, she bit her lower lip, regretting the fact that she had too much to drink and had completely missed out on his heroic act when he saved her.
Nevertheless, she figured that since this man was willing to go against Johan and his friends for her sake, then he must be attracted by her beauty. In addition, judging from his dressing and demeanor, he must be from a well-to-do family as well. If I can snag him away from Elise’s side, then I can have all my revenge against her! At the thought of this, her eyes gleamed cunningly before she pretended to be in a daze, mumbling about how terrible and hot she was feeling as she started undressing. Annoyed, Alexander knitted his brows and straightened himself suddenly.
“What are you doing?” Sprawled out limply on the bed, she mumbled, “I’m really thirsty. Could you please bring me a glass of water?” Lowering his eyes, he had no patience for her at all. Of all the women he knew, he found it a waste of time if any of them asked for a favor, except Elise. Seeing that he was unmoved, Janice pretended to be unwell and coughed a couple of times. In an even more pathetic tone, she said, “Please, it’s just a glass of water. I’m feeling really uncomfortable. Besides, you already brought me all the way here, so can’t you do me another small favor?”
Even though he was aware that she was trying to make him do stuff for her, Alexander felt that she was very noisy and wanted her to shut her mouth as quickly as possible. Hence, he picked up a bottle of water on the TV console, opened it, and poured out a glass before bringing it to the bed. “Hold it.” Pretentiously, she reached out her hand and made it look as though she couldn’t reach it. “Can you please… come a little closer?” Annoyed and frustrated, he bent over and pushed the glass to her forcefully, stopping inches away from her chest and turning in disgust to look the other way.
