Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 488

Chapter 488 I’m Tired and I Want to Sleep!

“This woman really is unreasonable!”

“Exactly! Everyone is being kind by giving her advice, but she is still so stubborn about it. Serves her right to lose all that money.”

“You should mind your own business. Even if she loses all that money, it is still hers. She is just a silly girl with a lot of money, so you should just let her be!”

Elise felt that the last sentence made sense, so she said, “Correct. I don’t have anything but money and I don’t like keeping it in my pocket, so the only way for me to be happy is to spend it!”

She was able to shut everyone up with her outrageous statement.

However, as soon as she was done speaking, Kenneth rudely interrupted, “Miss Sinclair, I really admire your bold personality. Is it possible for us to exchange our experience on failures?”

She immediately narrowed her eyes, filling them with murderous intent.

It was clear from her expression that she would kill Kenneth if he continued down that path.

Upon seeing that, Melody was afraid that Kenneth might actually die in Elise’s hands, so she quickly cleared her throat and reminded, “It’s time to go in.”

It was only then that Kenneth withdrew his flirtatious gaze and composed himself before resuming to his usual indifferent expression. “I know.” He turned toward Elise again and murmured, “I’ll wait for you inside.”

With that, he went inside while a smiling Melody nodded at Elise before following him inside.

Elise was left there shaking her head in regret. A woman like her doesn’t deserve that scumbag of a man!

As the entrance of the inner hall was opened, no one else cared about what Elise was doing, so they stood in readiness before walking in at the same time.

Of course, Ziggy was also among the crowd and when he met her, he didn’t forget to provoke her again. “Since you are so confident in your abilities, why don’t you just stay outside and use the jadeite from these low-grade stones to beat me?”

However, Elise looked at him as though she was looking at an idiot. “Do you own this building? I don’t think you have the right to forbid me from entering.” After rolling her eyes at him, she paused for a moment and looked around before raising her brows. “Why did the Carnegie Family send only you here for such a huge event?

Ziggy felt a hint of danger coming from her, so he countered, “How is this any of your business?”

Without answering him, she spread her hands and quickly went in with Tom.

The gemstones in the inner hall were displayed in a much more organized fashion than those in the outer hall. Even though the inner hall was twice as large as the outer hall, the amount of gemstones displayed here was only half of what was displayed in the outer hall. Every stone was displayed as though it was a work of art, and the base was listed with the label and price of the gemstone.

The staff members here also had their own specialized uniform accompanied with headphones and pagers. There were also a lot of bodyguards in the hall, which showed the difference in value between the inner and outer hall.

The lights inside were also a little more professional as there were special searchlights set up next to the gemstones for guests to pick up and shine the stones.

Even someone as calm as Melody couldn’t help but feel excited.

However, there were two exceptions—Ziggy and Elise.

The former was the last one to enter the hall but after taking a few steps inside, he stopped and scanned the whole place with a contemptuous gaze, having no intentions of walking in any further.

Meanwhile, Elise stood aside casually, looking bored and impatient, as if she wasn’t focused at all.

To others, however, she was acting rather self-defeating. Since she knew that she would lose, she wasn’t putting any effort into anything.

Tom was one of those people who saw it that way.

He wanted to be a good advisor to Elise, so he took the initiative to go up to her and ask, “Miss Sinclair, do you want me to teach you while you pick the stones? If we don’t do it sooner, all the good stones will be taken.”

“Okay.” She nodded her head thoughtfully. The next second, she turned around and headed out. “I’m tired. I’m going back to sleep.”

“Alright… What?!” Tom was left dumbfounded. When he turned around, Elise had already disappeared through the door.
