Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 102

Chapter 102,Coolest Girl in Town

Elise felt herself getting anxious, so she quickly changed their topic of conversation. “Linus mentioned that there’ll be fireworks tonight. Let me bring you over to watch them.” Alexander nodded and followed behind her as she led him onto a tiny pathway. After walking along the pathway for a while, they heard noises coming from above them. Right after that, a spark of fire shot up into the sky before erupting with a loud bang. 

 

 It spread out across the sky like a large flower blooming above them. Elise couldn’t help but exclaim when she saw the fireworks. “It’s so beautiful!” He turned to look up at the sky. “Fireworks may be pretty, but they only last for a short moment. Yet, it only takes the fireworks one short moment to flaunt the most beautiful side of itself.”

The fireworks continued shooting up into the sky, with one bang quickly following the other. There were all sorts of different-colored fireworks that painted the night skies. Once the fireworks ended, the sky returned to its usual, quiet self. “It’s getting late. Let’s go back,” Elise suggested.

Alexander looked away from the skies and checked the time. “Let’s go! We should get some rest.” After they got back to the castle, Elise parted ways with Alexander and headed back to her room. The maid showed Alexander to the guest room. The next morning, Elise woke up to find out that Alexander had left early in the morning.

She was rather disappointed when she first heard the news from her maid, but she quickly recollected herself. “What about Helen? Where is she?” Elise asked. The maid responded in a polite tone, “Helen’s harvesting some grapes in the orchard. The grapes are all ripening now, so Helen thought that it’d be a good idea to bring some back to make wine.”

 

Elise’s eyes lit up when she heard this. “I’ll go and help her!” She then hurried off to the orchard to find everyone busy harvesting grapes. She grabbed a basket for herself before going over to help them out. “These grapes look great, Helen.” Helen beamed when she saw the younger girl.

 

“Don’t bother, Miss Elise. Let me do the work.” Of course, Elise didn’t obey Helen’s orders. “It’s fine. Let me help you.” Helen no longer stopped Elise after she saw how determined Elise was to help her. Both of them got their own scissors, and they started harvesting the grapes. “That guy, Mr. Griffith, who came yesterday…

He seems pretty decent! He looks like a noble, dignified and handsome man. I think he’s not bad!” Helen commented as they worked. “He is pretty decent.” Elise agreed after hearing Helen’s praise for Alexander. Helen turned to look at Elise then. “You’re getting close to the age for marriage, Miss Elise. Perhaps you should start making some plans.”

 

Elise was rather embarrassed to talk about this. “What are you saying, Helen? I’m still young!” Helen couldn’t help but giggle when she saw the bashful look on Elise’s face. “I think you should try dating. However, it’s hard for someone as perfect as you to find a man who matches your standards, Miss Elise.

Only someone as handsome and outstanding as Mr. Griffith could be a good match.” Elise quickly held her hand up. “You can talk about me all you wish, but don’t drag him into this, Helen.” “I was just making an offhand comment. But I do think he’s a decent guy, Miss Elise,” Helen uttered.

 

Elise eyed the woman speechlessly. It looks like I’m never going to hear the end of this. “Regardless, I think you should bring a guy home the next time you’re here, Miss Elise.” This time, Helen spoke in a firm and serious manner while she stroked Elise’s hair. The older woman’s eyes were filled with anticipation.

Elise understood Helen’s intentions, so she quickly comforted and reassured her. “Okay! Don’t worry, Helen. I’ll make sure to bring a boyfriend over the next time I’m here.” Helen spread her lips into a pleasant grin when she heard Elise’s words. “We’ll be waiting for your good news, then.”

 

After harvesting the grapes, the maids brought all of the baskets into the manor. “I’m leaving tomorrow, Helen. I don’t know when I’ll be coming back again,” Elise uttered. Helen had a smile on her face before that, but the smile faded once she heard Elise. “You just came back! Are you leaving already?
