Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 51

Chapter 51

Jasmine’s hands clenched silently as she inwardly comforted herself. Dont be afraid. Youre not the one who did this. Its Rita that b*tch who did it, so dont worry about revenge. Even if Elise wants revenge, she will go after Rita.

Although Jasmine felt so, when Elise appeared in front of her in the next second, she was still shocked, and she jumped up from the stool. “E-Elise, how are you here?”

Elise smirked evilly and sat down next to her. “What? Surprised to see me?”

Jasmine controlled her emotions before saying, “What’s so surprising about that? It’s just that I haven’t seen you for a few days, so I’m a little surprised to see you all of a sudden.”

“Is that so? I think you’d much prefer Elise to be locked up in the mountains and starve to death,” Mikayla commented bitterly. She had already cursed Jasmine in her heart a million times. Who would have thought that Jasmine, a high school student, was actually vicious enough to do such a thing?

“What are you talking about? I don’t understand a word of it.” Jasmine was still trying to feign ignorance.

Elise did not have that much time to spend with her though. “It seems that you have amnesia and need me to remind you.”

When Jasmine heard these words, her knees had already gone weak. She looked at Elise incredulously, but the latter only smiled slightly and recounted the whole story. Hearing the story, Jasmine stumbled and she fell on the ground. Elise looked at her from above and proclaimed, “Don’t be afraid; I will settle the accounts between us one by one. But now, I just want to let you see how the thing you want most falls into my hands.”

With that, she got up and said to Mikayla, “Help me watch her here. It will be my turn soon for the public speaking competition.”

“Don’t worry! Elise, I will keep an eye on her. You just do your best.”

Elise did not look at Jasmine again, and after hearing the host read her name, she walked toward the stage. As she stood on the stage, all the spotlights hit her as if she was in control of this stage. Next, she held the microphone, and fluent pronunciation

 

came out of her mouth.

“Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. My name is Elise Sinclair…”

The moment her voice flowed out, it was as if she was playing a tape of a recorded speech. The audience below the stage all held their breath, their eyes fixed on her on the stage. Even Danny was also completely attracted to Elise.

“Young Master Griffith, I really didn’t expect that this ugly monster’s enunciation would actually be so good.” The person sitting next to Danny couldn’t help but speak, but in the next second, Danny shot an icy gaze over. So, that person immediately changed his tone. “Sorry, I misspoke. It’s Elise. Her enunciation is too good. If I didn’t know who she was, I would’ve thought she was professionally trained.”

Although these words were praising Elise, Danny inexplicably had a sense of pride too. “We can’t judge a book by its cover,” he said while looking at Elise on the stage. Even if her looks were not beautiful and were even rather ugly, it was difficult to cover up her talents. In fact, he found that he could no longer look at her with the same thoughts as before.

 

After Elise’s speech, the whole audience resounded with a burst of applause, while Elise smiled and bowed deeply to the audience below the stage before she came down. As soon as she stepped off the stage, Mikayla rushed forward. “Elise, you’re great! Your voice really sounds good and better than any of the public speaking tapes I’ve listened to.”

Moreover, the language teacher’s eyes were full of appreciation as well. “Good, Elise. Your speech was great. I haven’t heard such fluent enunciation for a long time.”

Although Elise had long been used to hearing words of praise, at this moment, she still felt a little shy. “Thank you, if it weren’t for you, I don’t think I would have come to this competition,” Elise said to the teacher very seriously.

From tomorrow onward, your nightmare will begin.
