Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 398

Chapter 398 You’re on the Losing End of the Deal!

“Do I not look the part?” Nathan shrugged.

“No,” Danny replied in an ever so monotonous sounding tone. With that, he went right over to Elise and announced dramatically, “Elise, you’re the only one who can help me now!”

“What’s the matter?” Elise always preferred to cut to the chase.

“Help me look for someone with your genius computer skills!” Danny said.

Elise simply looked at him as she awaited his next words.

“Claude Strike!” Danny began to explain, saying, “You know I’m busy trying to join SK Group these days, right? Just now, the recruiter sent out the entrance exam, and the task is to locate Claude, the legendary doctor!”

Claude himself was part of SK Group, so his tracks were hidden by the group themselves.

Wouldn’t it be counterintuitive to ask newbies to take on this challenge? “What’s the other task?” Elise asked, trying to keep her hopes up.

“What other task?” Danny looked extremely confused.

Elise was speechless, and her eyelids dropped. This guy doesn’t even know that the entrance exam for SK Group always has two options to choose from! Well, it’s not like I can do anything about it. “Never mind that. Where did you get the exam information from?”

“Someone in the field. It’s like an endless hierarchy, very complex stuff. I had to pay 200,000 to register.”

Elise had never been so speechless in her entire life. He’s on the losing end of the deal! Does this guy even think? He paid them money and promised to help them look for Claude free of charge!

“Can you still contact the person who took your registration fee?” Elise looked at Danny, exasperated.

“Yep.” Danny nodded innocently. “He gave me a private number.”

Elise crossed her arms and said in annoyance, “Call him up.”

“What for? I haven’t even found the guy.”

“I have,” Elise replied, irritated.

“Really! Whoa, you truly have mad skills, Elise! I’m calling him up right now. Haha! I’m going to be the only person who joined the group this year! You know, once the task was announced, everyone immediately went to team up and stuff…”

As he spoke, he took out his phone and managed to find the person on his contacts list. He then proceeded to make the call before the other person picked up.

“Hello, I found Claude!” Danny exclaimed excitedly.

Meeting! Set up a meeting! Elise stood opposite him and tried to get her message across by mouthing her words.

Danny didn’t get the message. He covered the receiver with his hand and leaned over to ask, “What?”

Elise sighed, exasperated. “I said, get him to meet you in person,” she hissed.

“Oh, all right, okay!” Danny was stunned, but he gave her an ‘OK’ sign before going outside with the phone.

A few minutes later, he jumped in excitement and announced, “Done! We’re meeting at The Waterway Restaurant!”

As soon as Danny finished speaking, Nathan couldn’t help but burst out laughing. Then, he put a hand to his mouth in an attempt to hide his subsequent laughs.
