Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 49

Chapter 49

“What are you doing, Alexander? Let go of me.” Elise struggled in embarrassment. If it weren’t for the darkness, everyone could see her cheeks that had become as red as tomatoes.

Alexander frowned and asked, “Didn’t you say your leg hurts?”

Elise replied, “But I can walk.”

“It’s not a problem for me. The road is slippery in the dark, so I don’t want you to fall again. It’s not a long way, anyway.”

Since Alexander said so, Elise had to swallow her words and obediently stayed in his arms. She let him carry her over to a boulder, where he squatted down to check her injuries. “Luckily, they are just some superficial injuries. You’ll be fine after putting on a little medicine back home.”

“Oh, thank you, Alexander.”

Alexander got up and instructed the subordinates behind him, saying, “Contact Danny and tell him to rendezvous at the foot of the mountain.”

“Yes, Young Master Griffith.”

Then Alexander looked at Elise and said, “I’ll carry you down.”

He was not asking Elise’s opinion but rather only informing her, but Elise hastily refused. “No need for that. I can walk by myself.”

However, Alexander did not give her a chance to refuse. Instead, he squatted down in front of her.

Elise hesitated for a moment before climbing on Alexander’s back. Then, Alexander carried her down the mountain. It was the first time she was carried by a man like this, so a strange feeling surfaced in her heart, as if she was a deer caught in the headlights.

Elise, what are you thinking? Retract those thoughts of yours!

Chiding herself in her heart, Elise allowed Alexander to carry her along the

 

mountain path all the way to the bottom of the mountain. Soon, he safely brought her back to the Griffith Residence, where Elise’s accident had already alarmed Jonah. Fortunately, Elise had already been found, but the elderly man had been waiting in the hall all this time until Elise returned.

“Ellie, you are back. How are you? Nothing serious, right?” Jonah asked with concern as soon as he saw Elise.

“Grandpa Griffith, I’m fine! All thanks to Alexander.”

Jonah’s eyes darkened. “Who is it that’s brave enough to mess with one of the Griffiths?! Alex, you must find out for me. This matter will not be tolerated.”

“Yes, Grandpa. I will have someone look into it,” Alexander said with a serious face.

“Well, you have worked hard today, so go back to rest early,” Jonah said and looked at Elise. “Ellie, sorry that you’ve been frightened by all this, but don’t you worry. I will definitely get you justice.”

“Thank you, Grandpa Griffith!” Initially, Elise did not want the Griffith Family to interfere.

This is my own issue after all. But! No matter who they are, I will not let them go! Never in a million years!

After Elise returned to her room and locked the door behind her, she contacted Jamie.

“Boss, are you okay?’

Haha! I bet that woman is locked up in a hut on some mountain right now!
