Chapter 275 Don’t Reveal My Identity, Coolest Girl in Town
Professor Merlin nodded. “I know. I’ll do it right now! To be honest, even though it’s just a few sheets of paper, it’s weighing heavily on me. I’m still feeling a lot of emotions.” “I understand how you feel! This young girl is really good. If she’s going to pursue this path in the future, it would be a very good choice. We now have a successor in this industry.” “Yes, you’re totally right! But, for her protection, let’s not publicize this matter for the time being. Let’s wait for the reply from the upper levels on what to do next.” Professor Walter agreed, but still asked, “Then, do you plan to tell Elise about this?”
Professor Merlin pondered it, then said, “Let’s keep it a secret from her for now! It’s for her own good! After all, before she solved the question, she didn’t know the story behind it.” “Professor Merlin, to be honest, I suddenly envy you a little…” Upon hearing this, Professor Merlin was relieved of his tense emotions. “What’s there to be envious about? Just don’t forget to treat me to the tea you promised me.” Speaking of this, Professor Walter looked pained, and he sighed. “I won’t get to drink your good wine anymore. As for the tea I promised you, I accept my loss.
Although I’m old, I can’t be so shameless, so rest assured. I’ll definitely bring it to you personally some day.” The two professors smiled at each other, and their fluctuating moods slowly calmed down. They knew that from the time Elise began solving this question, many changes had happened in the background. … Elise was completely unaware of all this. During the afternoon after class, her classmates came over to ask her, “Elise, do you want to go to rehearsal together later?” Having just remembered about it, Elise frowned slightly, then replied, “You guys can go ahead! I’ll be there a little later.” “Then we’ll go and wait for you in the conference room.” After her classmates left, Elise took out the script she got last time and headed to the conference room.
She had just arrived when a fashionably-dressed young man walked in. As soon as he appeared, a chorus of female voices sounded. “It’s the sophomore, Jose! Why is he here? “I’ve heard a lot about Jose! Seeing him today just proves that he’s much more handsome than the rumors say.” At that, several girls surrounded him and asked, “Jose, what are you doing here? Are you here to watch us rehearse?” At this moment, Janice walked over and explained, “I invited Jose over to help!
He’ll be the male lead of our play.” “Wow! Really? That’s great!” At this point, everyone couldn’t help but look at Elise. “I envy you so much, Elise. You get to act as a couple with Jose.” Elise was speechless, thinking that they were exaggerating it a little. Although Jose had rather good looks, he was still a little far behind compared to the young masters of the Griffith Family. To her surprise, Jose walked over and looked Elise up and down before exclaiming in a disdainful tone, “Janice, are you kidding me? You want me to partner with this ugly monster?”
As soon as he said this, everyone fell silent. In their eyes, Elise was indeed not suited to play the female lead opposite Jose, so none of them spoke up for Elise. All of them remained silent. This was exactly the outcome that Janice wanted! Although she couldn’t do anything to Elise, she could do something to annoy her, and this incident was an example. Although she was delighted deep down, she said euphemistically, “Jose, don’t say that. Elise is actually not that bad…” Hearing that, Jose frowned even more. “No, I’m not partnering with anyone but you! You guys can think about it! Do you want me?
Or do you want her?” Jose’s attitude was resolute. Everyone exchanged looks, then they turned their gazes to Elise, seemingly telling her, Elise, just quit! Elise shrugged and said, “Then, I’ll quit.” One of the female students said sheepishly, “This isn’t very nice. After all, Janice was the one who invited Elise to be the lead actress… If we do this now, it’ll be a little too unfair for Elise…” “With her looks, is she even suited to play the female lead?” “That’s right. You can only be with Jose if you look like Janice. As for Elise… It’s just that her grades are better and she has a nice figure, but… she looks a little ugly, so we don’t really have a choice!” Elise felt that this was a good thing too. “It’s okay!
