Coolest Girl in Town, Chapter 422
“No need for that,” Jackson answered coldly. “But since you’re such an expert, you must have heard of Claude Strike, have you not?”
“No, I haven’t,” Claude answered promptly.
“Do you think I’d believe that?” Jackson gnashed his teeth. This guy knows more than he lets on
“You’re an odd man, Mr. Gleeman. There are a few billion people on this earth, and a lot of them are in the field of medicine. I can’t possibly know each and every one of them,” Claude denied and started joking around without a care. “Is this Claude character your lover, Mr. Gleeman?”
That finally irritated Jackson. His face fell, and he gritted his teeth. “Claude is a man.”
“Oh?” Claude sighed regrettably, and he shot Jackson a weird look. “I didn’t expect you to have a thing for men.”
“I do not!” Jackson growled.
“You do not have to explain yourself. I respect all sexualities. After all, love wins.” Claude gave him an understanding look, as if no matter what Jackson said, Claude would not change his mind anymore.
Jackson finally had enough, and he stormed off.
Elise didn’t even hear their conversation. She was staring at Joseph, spacing out. A moment later, she asked calmly, “Does Tissote have everything you need for the surgery?”
“No,” Claude said calmly. “I’ll get someone to send it over from Mesdra. They’ll be here in two days, if nothing goes wrong.”.
“Then perform the surgery in two days,” she snapped out of it and said. “Return the coffin to its default state, and supply some nutrients to him.”
“Of course. I won’t spare any effort on this,” Claude replied.
Elise nodded. “Come over once you’re done. You’ll be staying at my place. I’ll be going first to get someone to clear up a room for you.”

She went outside right after, but when she brushed past Alexander, she stopped for a moment and looked at him. “Come with me,” she said calmly, then continued walking.
Alexander gazed at Claude deeply for a moment, then he followed her out.
