Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 490

Chapter 490 We Are Destined for Each Other

“Miss Sinclair!” Tom suddenly came out of nowhere, scaring Elise.

“What’s all this fuss about?” she asked with some annoyance.

“Machine No. 9 is now working on our gemstone. Do you want to take a look at it?” he questioned.

“Alright.” Upon hearing that, Elise nodded her head and went toward the place he specified.

“She’s here. That woman is here!”

“This is the gemstone she chose.”

“I’m surprised she actually dared to come. All the gemstones opened today came from the inner hall, except for hers. I wonder if there’ll be any surprises…”

“What? It came from the outer hall? Then I better look at the other machines.”

Less than a minute after Elise arrived, half of the people there were already gone.

To her, it was a good thing because the air was much fresher with fewer people.

Then, the gemstone master began to open her gemstone.

Not long after, Tom screamed, “I see green!”

Even the gemstone master couldn’t help but be surprised.

Immediately, the people who looked away were drawn by the commotion again as they stretched their necks to watch the action, wanting to know what good could come from that stone.

Ziggy, who was observing everything silently from afar, couldn’t help but concentrate on Elise’s stone.

Could it be that this woman really is the second God’s Chosen Girl? Can she really turn a stone into treasure?

Everyone’s eyes were locked onto the gemstone master’s hands, as if their eyes were the ones opening the gemstones instead of the tools.

Finally, the master opened the outermost layer of the stone, revealing its interior.

Everyone went silent for a moment.

“Hahaha…”

After a short silence, their laughter echoed across the hall.

“As expected, nothing good comes from the outer hall. What was I expecting?”

“Not only is its quality average, it also has impurities and broken layers. I wouldn’t take it even if it was free!”

“She is just an ordinary woman after all. I actually thought that there would be a second God’s Chosen Girl, but it seems like I was thinking too much. Serves her right for competing with Ziggy with this level of ability! I think that it’s possible that she is fond of Ziggy and was just finding an excuse to go to bed with him.”

The interior appearance of the gemstone that was lying on the machine was indeed imperfect.

However, Elise remained calm, as if she had expected the outcome.

As for Tom, he was so worried that he could feel his eyes falling off. The whole time, he kept on wiping away the cold sweat on his forehead.

This is bad! Miss Sinclair really knows nothing about stone gambling. She only won that stone gambling in Landred City entirely because of luck. Based on her ability today, she is no match against Ziggy, let alone his secret weapon!

“Miss Sinclair, y-you…” Tom stuttered as he didn’t know how to persuade her.

Should I find some local enforcements to help cancel the bet? Even though we’ll lose some money, I can’t allow a little girl like her to fall in the hands of Ziggy. Who knows what kind of torture she’ll have to endure? Maybe there’s still time to hire a professional stone gambler since today is only the first day!

However, Elise lifted her hand and patted her mouth as she yawned lazily. “What should I do? I’m feeling sleepy again.”

“Miss Sinclair, please stop joking around. The lunch break just ended…” Tom smiled bitterly.

Upon hearing that, she casually patted his shoulder. “Don’t be so anxious. After I’m done recuperating, we’ll battle again. Are you confident in holding the fort by yourself?”
