Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 1009

Camren suddenly appeared right in front of Owen and successfully caught Ariel. "You will give me an answer today, Arie! I tried calling and sending you messages, but you wouldn't respond or reply. Why?!" Camren acted as if she was a child who had been bullied.

Then, Ariel responded with an indifferent attitude. "Nothing much. I didn't feel like replying, and that's all. After all, I didn't want any trouble from getting too close to you."

"What are you talking about? Do you have any idea how much we went through before we reunited? What do you mean by that when you said you didn't want any trouble from me?" As soon as Camren finished his words, Rylantha and Maverick suddenly appeared.

When Ariel looked in their direction, she saw Rylantha intimately seizing Maverick's arm. So, she grunted coldly. Hmph! So, you really did turn your attention to Rylantha after you failed to win my heart. I didn't expect you to take my words so seriously, Maverick.

Meanwhile, Danny was chatting with some guests until he saw Maverick talking to his wife. The next second, he approached them and wrapped one arm around Ariel's shoulders. "You're a tough man, Mr. Taylor. I'm impressed that the chilly night you spent sleeping by the street barely fazed you." Deep down, Danny regretted his lenience, thinking he should have thrown Maverick into a freezer or something.

"As a man, I'm expected to be physically fit. You know what? We should spar together someday when we're free." Maverick talked as if nothing had ever happened before.

When Danny heard that, he couldn't help but criticize Maverick's shamelessness on the inside. Hmph! Rylantha and Maverick really deserve each other! What a perfect match they are!

"Arie! Arie!"

Then, Ariel reacted by seizing Danny's hand before she walked away with him, growing tired of dealing with the couple.

"Alas!" Camren sighed and glared at Rylantha, losing his temper. "Tell me what you did this time!" Although Camren hardly ever spent much time with Ariel, he knew her well enough to believe she was a lady with decent manners. Therefore, he was sure her outburst was probably because she was pissed off by someone who did something unacceptable. If I didn't do anything, it must be Rylantha who did it.

"I didn't do anything. I only gave her fiancé a test by getting a woman to approach him. Look at how close they are now. She should have thanked me for what I'd done for her, but instead, she walked away without saying hello. How rude!" Rylantha didn't think she was wrong at all. Isn't this a happy ending? Ariel lives happily with Danny, as do I with Maverick.

"How dare you!" Camren was speechless upon hearing Rylantha's words. The next second, he slapped her and said, "Nonsense!" He stomped off madly after that.

"He just slapped me in the face for that b*stard!" Rylantha covered her cheek in disbelief.

"Are you alright?" Maverick gently rubbed her cheek. "Easy, girl. I'll always be by your side and have your back. Ariel will never get a cent of the Abbott Family's fortune."

Then, she rested in his arms, feeling fortunate to still have someone who understood her. "You're the only person who feels how I feel in this world."

"Of course!" He seized the lady's hand, his face darkening sinisterly. I will have my revenge! While no one had ever humiliated him until he met Danny and Ariel, Maverick was determined to make them pay for what they did to him.

…

On the other hand, Alexander and Elise arrived at Griffith Manor's gate when they saw Zephyr waiting there with some metal detectors. After a thorough scan, they found an eavesdropping device in Elise's purse.

"Shh!" Zephyr made a gesture that meant silence as he carefully extracted the gadget and placed it near a special signal jammer. "Owen is such a slippery b*stard. Thank God, I grabbed the signal jammer and brought it along when I returned for the tracker devices. Otherwise, all our efforts will go to waste," Zephyr said and sighed.

"Owen doesn't seem to trust me either, but fortunately, I managed to leave the tracking device in his car. Since he is not a smoker, I doubt he'll discover the tracking device soon," Elise answered.

"The show must go on until he falls for it." Alexander nodded.

"What's the story about this guy, Owen? Why must you work with the big boss of Smith Co. to take on him?" Zephyr asked curiously.
