Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 175

Jack was confused at first but after staring at Mikayla, he finally understood what was happening. Elise is trying to match both of us together, right? She really doesn’t know what she is doing. Mikayla and I are just friends. “Elise, you guys are finally here,” Mikayla said before turning toward Jack. “You’re here as well.” However, he only gave her a simple reply without saying anything while putting on an indifferent expression. His reaction immediately left Mikayla confused because this wasn’t how he would usually react when they were alone together.Then, the four of them boarded the plane and arrived at Switzerland a dozen or so hours later. At the moment, it was nighttime in Switzerland, so they quickly rushed to the hotel. Elise and Mikayla were staying in one room, while Alexander and Jack stayed together in another. Due to tiredness, the two girls immediately fell asleep the moment they lay down on their beds. Meanwhile, Alexander and Jack seemed to still have some energy left so after arriving at the hotel, they took a bath before going downstairs to have a drink. Jack was still surprised that Alexander would suddenly bring Elise along on a skiing trip, so he couldn’t help but ask, “Alexander, do you really like Elise?” Listening to his words, Alexander remained emotionless, making it difficult for others to read his mind. Instead, he took a huge gulp of his wine glass to conceal his true emotions. However, Jack read his actions as him being distressed, so he patted his shoulder and said, “Alexander, I understand that you are doing all this because of Grandpa’s last wish. Actually, you don’t need to force yourself. Grandpa has passed away and I believe that he wants all of us to live a happy life. If he knows how reluctant you are to be together with Elise, he definitely won’t force you to do so.” With a faint smile, Alexander murmured, “I didn’t get engaged with her because of Grandpa.” Jack thought he had heard him wrongly at first, but Alexander’s words afterward immediately caused his eyes to widen.

 

“I did it because… I found out that I seem to like her.” Listening to his words, Jack couldn’t help but pinch himself. “Alex, are you joking?” “Do I look like I’m joking?” Jack quickly nodded his head. He was still in shock after Alexander personally admitted to him that he liked Elise, which was why the former immediately thought that Alexander was joking with him. “Are you sure? She looks so…” As an admirer of good-looks, Jack kept on bringing up her appearance because he believed that no one would care how beautiful you were inside if there was nothing appealing on the outside.

“What is it about her that you like?” Alexander himself couldn’t answer his question, as he believed that there shouldn’t be a reason for a person to fall in love. If something like love can be explained rationally, does that even count as true love? “I don’t know. Maybe it’s temporary or maybe I really like her. However, before I figure out my true feelings for her, I hope that you can keep this a secret for me.” Jack was still processing what he just heard but seeing Alexander’s serious expression, he felt that perhaps he wasn’t joking this time. “It’s getting late. You should go to sleep.

We are going out together tomorrow, so please don’t look so sulky as you were today.” Quickly, Jack refuted, “I wasn’t. I’m just getting used to the place.” “You better be. Mikayla is a nice girl. If you like her, you should act fast.” Listening to him, Jack was frightened as he kept on refuting, “Alexander, there’s really nothing going on between the two of us. I only see her as my friend.” “Even so, everyone starts out as friends.” Upon hearing that, Jack was rendered speechless. He felt that there was nothing he could do to convince Alexander, so he kept quiet and ignored him.

After returning to their room, Jack took a shower before falling asleep on the bed while Alexander remained awake. He was obviously tired, but he just couldn’t fall asleep. Therefore, he stood alone outside the window, gazing at the strange city in front of him. As the confusion inside his heart seemed to be fading away, he realized that some things just required him to find the answer himself. … The next day, Elise woke up during the afternoon due to the jet lag she experienced the day before. When she woke up, Mikayla was already gone.
