Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 482

Chapter 482 Getting Even

“I’ll go,” Elise answered succinctly. “When we come back later, let’s change the name of Shaw’s Jewelry Co.”

“Change it to what?” Tom was curious.

“Alexis.” At the thought of Alexander, a smile appeared on Elise’s face.

“Ah… Lexis?” As he did not hear Elise clearly, Tom pondered on that thought and decided that Lexis was a good fit in the end. “Alright, I’ll get someone to design the logo immediately.”

“It’s not urgent,” she said as she briefly pursed her lips. She wanted this to be a surprise for Alexander, so she wanted to design the logo herself.

However, Tom thought that she was just being courteous with him. Therefore, right after the meeting, he went to look for a designer that he was familiar with to design the brand logo.

After Tom left, Elise went directly to the restaurant.

When she got there, Alexander had already ordered breakfast for her.

Just as she sat down, he passed her a cup of milk that he had been holding onto.

“Here, drink this cup of milk first.”

“Thank you.”

Taking the drink over, she took a sip as she thought, Wow. The milk is still warm.

“Did it go smoothly?” Alexander asked casually.

“Nothing out of the ordinary,” Elise replied in a good mood. She then recalled what Tom said, so she asked, “I may have to visit Dukethorn in two days. Do you want to tag along?”

Hearing that, he showed a troubled face. “Can it be postponed by two days? I can’t leave yet.”

“Oh, it’s fine. You can focus on your work while I do mine,” she said understandingly.

Though she did not want to be separated from him, she knew that distance was inevitable no matter how close the person was to her.

Having a career of their own would help build a long-lasting relationship. Therefore, she decided to try and get used to being away from him in short intervals during this long-term relationship.

Not to mention, she wasn’t a well-pampered and spoiled young lady.

After some thoughts, Alexander said, “Have Clement and the others follow along.”

“There is no need for that. I’m going there for business, not to travel,” she replied.

“When you’re out, you should have bodyguards by your side. They can handle conflicts that require fighting.” He looked at her with a concerned expression.

She seemed to have heard this sentence from somewhere. Nevertheless, she couldn’t help but retort, “Are you expecting them to protect me? You don’t even know who’s the one protecting the other.”

Stumped for a moment, he felt helpless, but he still insisted. “I know that you’re perfectly capable of fighting, but Dukethorn is a messy city. You can’t fight everyone on your own. It’s better to have a few people by your side.”

Knowing that she would not be able to win the argument, she no longer rejected. However, her gaze suddenly turned cold and murderous.

Noticing that, Alexander was worried that her hostility was toward Kenneth, so he asked, feeling a little guilty. “Is there something bothering you?”

“No.” With her eyes squinted, she said in a dangerous tone, “I suddenly remembered that I have to get even with Faye.”

Upon hearing that, he was secretly relieved. He then humored, “Sounds like Faye’s going to get unlucky.”

Hearing that, Elise simply smiled without replying.

Since Faye intended to kill her and get the jadeite, Elise was going to let her get a taste of her own medicine. As for the killing part… Elise didn’t have such plans yet, so she’ll spare Faye her life.

Faye. Oh, Faye. You better stay alive. When my brother wakes up, he’ll definitely go to you personally to get his revenge.

After finishing her breakfast, she made a phone call.

The person on the other end picked up quickly. “So, Miss Elise still remembers this unimportant character. Is the sun rising from the west today?”

“Cut it out.” Elise then said in a serious tone, “I’m here to give you a job.”

“No thanks. I’ve already changed for the better. I no longer do anything bad.” The opposite end then added, “My mother’s health isn’t the best. I want to be a good person. Hopefully, God will bless her then.”
