Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 373

Chapter 373 Stand Someone Up,Coolest Girl in Town
Amelia stood there and stared patronizingly at Alexander. With a contemptuous look on her face, she commented, “I gave you a chance but you refused it, so today’s outcome is all of your own doing.” ”Are you so sure that you’ll win by just currying favors with a couple of bankers?” Elise lifted her left eyebrow and shot Amelia a meaningful look. “A couple of bankers?” Amelia scoffed, “You’re quite full of yourself, aren’t you? Do you realize the amount of cash flow that can be approved by one single banker?
The loan approved for the Olson Family by any of them would be sufficient to bring the Griffiths down to their knees if I directed the money into the share market.” “Well, a loan has to be repaid eventually,” Elise retorted. Her gaze flickered and there seemed to be an unexplainable glimmer in her eyes as her whole body exuded coldness. “It would be repaid for sure!” Amelia had been targeting the Griffiths over the last couple of days in the stock exchange market, which was why the latter were in a losing position at the moment. As such, Amelia was full of arrogance and she paid no heed to anyone else. With a half-smile, she continued, “Well, it would not be using our family’s money but your future family—the Griffith’s—money.”

“Mrs. Shoal, your plan is quite well thought out indeed.” Even Alexander couldn’t help but voice out mockingly. “Thanks for the compliment.” Amelia accepted his words and was lost in thought. Suddenly, she muttered to herself, “Everyone seems to think that you’re god’s gift to the world and the whizz in the corporate world, but look at yourself right now. You’re not even a match for a mere woman like me.” As soon as she said that, she moved forward and patted Alexander on the shoulder. “Dear nephew, your worst mistake was to force us into the brink of desperation.

After all, one would definitely scramble to save themselves in a tight situation, so you should keep this lesson in mind. You might no longer be able to achieve such an exalted position and experience all of these competitive business dealings for the rest of your life!” Just then, Amelia purposely heaved a sympathetic sigh and turned to speak to the bankers behind her with an exasperated tone, “Aren’t you guys about to leave? Do you actually plan to stay on and discuss collaboration plans with Mr. Griffith and his fiancée?” “We’re leaving right now…” Amelia was currently Nathan’s favorite person and she could even interfere in their overseas dealings, so they were afraid of offending her.

They had no choice but to handle her very carefully. “Mrs. Shoal, aren’t you afraid that calamity will befall your future generations if you continue with your vicious actions?” Elise had a smile on her face but it did not reach her eyes. Meanwhile, Amelia found Elise’s words quite perplexing, so the former merely assumed that this was a final struggle and that the latter was merely trying to get back at her with such words. As such, Amelia rolled her eyes and dismissed those words before walking off without a backward glance. Meanwhile, Elise watched as the group walked off into the distance. Then, she took out a clunky black-colored flip phone from her bag with a stony expression.

She typed out a message in code in front of Alexander and hit the send button soon after that. ”Did you text someone?” Alexander glanced at the simple-looking cell phone and asked in surprise. “Yup.” Elise didn’t say much. Subsequently, Alexander took a deep breath and raised both of his eyebrows. Shortly after that, he muttered sulkily, “Your phone… It looks quite special.” “Do you like it? I’ll get one for you.” Elise didn’t even bother to glance at him. At that point, she was quite focused on waiting for a reply from the other party. Just then, Alexander shrugged but didn’t respond to her words. In fact, he preferred a sleeker and less clunky phone. I don’t even know how she can hold such a clunky phone in her dainty hands. On the other end, Nathan had a slightly exasperated smile on his face upon receiving the text from A.

 

‘Here’s a question for you. What’s my favorite thing to do?” This was a piece of cake, so Nathan responded instantly. ‘Stand someone up.’ A would contact him once or twice practically every year and would usually mention making a trip to the mountains, but each time the trip didn’t materialize. Furthermore, there was an instance whereby Nathan had already arrived at the designated meeting place but as it came to their meeting time, A didn’t turn up at all. Two days later, she sent him a text with the following words as her explanation, ‘I’m not in the mood to meet.’ It was fortunate that A was a whiz in stock operation. Otherwise, if anyone else had done the same thing, Nathan would definitely have slaughtered that person. Meanwhile, Elise saw the reply and she swiftly tapped out a reply.
