Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 120

Alexander was about to say something, but Elise didn’t give him a chance to speak. “Do you seriously think that you’re made of steel? How can you still work when you’re hurt like this? Go to the hospital!” she instructed without any room for negotiation. Upon hearing this, he felt a sense of warmth in his heart. He was not offended at all as he could sense the concern in her voice. Meanwhile, Cameron held his breath. Finally, Alexander said, “Let’s go to the hospital first.” Relieved, Cameron answered, “Yes, Mr. Griffith! Please get into the car with Miss Sinclair.” After getting into the car, Alexander and Elise sat next to each other as the car sped off toward the hospital. Sitting in the passenger seat, Cameron eyed the two of them. Though the two did not say anything, Cameron could clearly feel that they were acting differently compared to before.

 

However, he couldn’t point out exactly what was different. Hence, he didn’t put too much thought into it and sent Alexander to the hospital. Alexander’s wounds were simply superficial, and he seemed to be doing fine after the doctor treated them. “Remember to rest well, avoid direct contact with water, and come back in time to get your dressings changed,” the doctor reminded as he prescribed Alexander some medicine.

For the first time in forever, Alexander did not refute but conceded. As soon as Alexander came out of the doctor’s office, Elise stood up from the chair immediately. “How did it go? Are you alright?” Tossing her the medicine, he replied, “I’m fine. I just need to take my medicine and get my dressings changed on time.” Hearing this, she sighed in relief. “Don’t go to the company today. Go home and have a good rest.”

Immediately, this stopped him in his tracks and made him turn around to look at her. At that moment, she couldn’t help but feel embarrassed to meet his glare. “W-Why are you staring at me like that?” Softly, he questioned, “Why are you making decisions for me, Elise?” Stunned, she came back to her senses after a few seconds. “I’m… I’m only doing this for your sake,” she stuttered as she tried to come up with a good excuse. After acknowledging her, he told her, “There are still some matters I need to settle back at the company. I’ll ask Cameron to send you home.”

However, she was unwilling to just leave it at that. “Look at your leg. Can’t you just stop working for a while?” “Are you going to take care of me if I stop working?” He raised his eyebrows. She was dumbfounded. Meanwhile, Cameron, who was listening, was also stupefied by such a weird conversation.

“I… I…” she stammered, struggling to find the right words for a long time. In response, the corner of Alexander’s mouth lifted as he smirked evilly when no one was looking. Then, Cameron interjected at the right time. “Mr. Griffith, I think you should listen to Miss Sinclair. After all, she’s a major shareholder of the Griffith Group. Besides, it wouldn’t be a problem for her to take care of you.” As soon as Cameron said this, Alexander and Elise turned to give him a cold-eyed stare.

“What are you talking about?” Elise fumed. “I was simply going along with what you said, Miss Sinclair. I’m only doing it for Mr. Griffith’s sake!” Understanding his double-edged remark, she thought that what Cameron said made sense. Yet, she felt that something was wrong. Why do I need to take care of Alexander? “Whatever. Do whatever you want.” She left at once after saying this, ignoring the questions she had.

She had only suggested it out of concern anyway. She didn’t know that it would raise so many questions. Watching as she left, Alexander couldn’t help but feel a little happy. He realized that she was actually pretty adorable. “Cameron, is there anything urgent back at the company?” Cameron came back to his senses and thought about it for a moment. Basically, there was nothing much to do except for some trivial matters that the subordinates could handle even if Alexander was out of office.
