Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 487

Chapter 487 She Is So Fierce

When Ziggy acquired a high grade gemstone a few years ago, Jim had handed him a huge investment, allowing him to open such a shop.

With the backing of the Carnegies, the performance of the shop rose exponentially, making it the most profitable shop in the Carnegie Family.

Is this woman trying to acquire the shop?

However, Elise was able to see through his thoughts immediately.

“Stop thinking about it. I don’t want your shop,” she uttered. “However, I’m interested in your staff. If I win, I will get to choose any of your staff members in the shop. What do you say?”

Puzzled by her words, Ziggy couldn’t help but furrow his brows.

I don’t recall anyone in the shop being outstanding. What is this woman aiming at?

“If you are afraid of a bet, you can always admit defeat.” Elise provoked him in a strange tone.

As expected, he fell for it instantly. “Who says that I’m afraid? It’s a deal. I won’t even bat an eyelash if you asked for the entire shop, let alone someone who works there!”

“Fine. I’ll just take the entire shop then!” Elise said with confidence.

“You—” Ziggy didn’t expect her to be so confident with herself, so it became hard for him to step away from the challenge. Since he had already said what he said, he couldn’t embarrass the entire Carnegie Family in front of everyone. Therefore, he withdrew his curses and began to put on a show. “Just you wait and see!”

After that, he left with his subordinates.

Not long after, Melody went up to Elise and asked in a concerned tone, “Miss Sinclair, are you actually familiar with stone gambling?”

“I know nothing about it.” Elise smiled uncaringly.

In truth, she only had a superficial understanding of stone gambling.

Upon hearing that, Kenneth quickly walked up to her. “Miss Sinclair, if you are willing to ask me, I won’t mind helping you once more.”

She immediately gave him a sharp glare. “If you want to keep your dignity, you better stay away from me in the future.”

After that, she left without looking back.

Standing at the same spot, Kenneth shook his head silently. “She is so fierce…”

Even though he was ridiculing her, he couldn’t help but reveal a delighted smile.

Feeling a chilling sense behind her back, Melody turned around and shivered when she noticed his smile. “Boss, you do know that your smile is terrifying, right?”

In the end, Elise found Tom among the crowd.

“Miss Ander—” Before he could finish his words, he was met with Elise’s murderous gaze, so he quickly corrected himself. “Miss Elise, are you alright? I heard that someone was causing trouble at the party. I was looking around for you!”

“I’m fine.” She placed her hand on his shoulder. “Do you know who Tina Baker is?”

Tom froze. Upon seeing that, Elise smiled knowingly. As expected, he actually knows who she is.

…

Time passed and the gem auction event was around the corner.

Although the event was held every year, because of the God’s Chosen Girl incident last year, countless people who dreamed of being rich overnight suddenly had hope. Therefore, many people had come to the event, wishing to be the next ‘chosen one’ and climb to the top of the social ladder.

At 10 AM, Elise and Tom entered the venue.

When they arrived at the entrance, they got a glimpse of the gemstones of different sizes displayed on each side of the hall.
