Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 251

Chapter 251,Coolest Girl in Town

Madeline’s eyes were full of condescension when she heard Elise’s answer. That’s an authentic country girl for you—drooling over whatever’s out of her reach! Of course she’d be happy to attend after hearing she might get a chance to meet with the world’s number one billionaire. How shameless! She then chuckled. “Sure. Do attend the banquet with Alex.” When Madeline finally left, Alexander turned to Elise. “I thought you weren’t interested.

What gives?” She answered, “As she just said, my godfather will be attending the banquet as well! It’s been a long time since I last saw him, so I decided it’s time I meet him again.” Consequently, Alexander recalled his mother’s words. I wonder how’d she react if she were to know that the Quentin Fassbender that she’s preying on is the godfather of Elise… That’d be a blast, wouldn’t it? Nonetheless, he had no intention to reveal the truth to Madeline as he desired for her to eliminate the prejudice she had against Elise and learn to accept her wholeheartedly.

“Let’s go together, then.” Elise nodded. “Let’s!” … SK Group’s anniversary banquet was held in a manor that belonged to the Dahlens. The banquet gathered ninety percent of celebrated business owners in Athesea. Anyone who had gotten the invitation would bring along their loved ones, and that reflected just how influential the Dahlens were in the business industry of Athesea. “Greetings, Mrs. Griffith, Young Master Alexander.”

Maxwell Dahlen took the initiative and approached Madeline and Alexander with a warm welcome. As the owner of the manor, he seemed to have ignored Elise, who was right beside them, as he proceeded with his passionate chatter with Madeline. Madeline, who enjoyed being treated with utmost respect, revealed a boastful look with a subtle smirk, posing as a noblewoman. Alexander, on the other hand, wrapped his arm around Elise’s waist and pulled her close to himself, appearing to be quite intimate.

Seeing that, Maxwell finally noticed Elise’s presence and inquired, “And this is?” As Madeline was about to speak, Alexander swiftly replied, “My fiancée.” At his answer, Maxwell couldn’t help but feel slightly bewildered. Nevertheless, thanks to the countless experience he garnered from dealing in the industry for many years, he was able to cover up his ignorance. “Oh, yes. I’ve heard about your engagement, but I’ve never expected her to be such a beauty!

If I may, which grand family do you come from?” Elise, who had nothing to hide, raised her eyes and smilingly answered, “I come from a prairie. My parents passed away when I was but a girl, and all I had left was my grandparents.” Hearing her upfront answer, Maxwell couldn’t help but reveal a knowing look. “I’ve heard about young people practicing spiritual affection nowadays, and my skepticism would have persisted had I not seen the two of you together.”

Upon those words, Madeline felt somewhat embarrassed, saying, “They’re just kids. They have a long way to go yet.” Whether literally or implied—all of her words suggested her disagreement toward their marriage. Maxwell, on the other hand, pretended not to have sensed her meaning and simply notified his leave. “Please make yourselves at home, Mrs. Griffith, Young Master Alexander. I’m afraid duty calls.” When Maxwell left the conversation, Madeline shot Elise a resentful glare.

If Alexander weren’t present, she would have rebuked the young woman a thousand times over. “Alex, Maya’s right there. Should we go and say hi?” Alexander rejected her without a second thought. “Go ahead. Elise needs a timeout.” Before Madeline could say anything, he escorted Elise to a resting spot, to which the latter questioned, “What’s wrong with you?” Alexander looked her in the eyes and suddenly hugged her tight, whispering, “You don’t have to care what my mother has to say, nor do you need to care what everyone else thinks.

As long as I’m breathing, I’ll always be by your side.” “Mm-hmm,” Elise mumbled as the unhappiness in her heart waned. “I know. But you don’t have to be so anxious either. It’s normal for families like yours to be into homogamy, and your mother’s dissatisfaction toward me is only rooted from the idea that your family is out of mine’s league. Regardless, as long as we’re in love with each other, nothing else matters.”
