Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 519

Chapter 519 A Different Purpose

Kenneth slightly pursed his lips. Then, he reached out to position her hand in place before taking it into his as they headed inside.

Both of them walking together was quite a sight to behold—one looked mature and stable while the other was ethereal-looking.

The host was considered to be quite experienced and used to handling different situations, so he quickly came to his senses. However, he couldn’t quite contain the surprise and excitement that was clearly evident in his voice. “This is totally unexpected! Mr. Bailey has actually arrived with a date for this event. Mr. Bailey, please sign here.”

At this moment, Kenneth naturally strolled forward and signed his name on the wall before heading inside with Elise.

The duo’s sudden appearance had caused quite a commotion inside.

“Who’s the person next to Kenneth? Is there someone so beautiful amongst the members here?”

“Kenneth’s date would definitely not be just an ordinary person. Who cares about her identity?! If you get the chance, just go forward and talk to them! That’s more important.”

However, most of the comments from the crowd seemed to be quite bitter.

“Oh. That person there. Haven’t you guys heard of her? She’s the second daughter of the Anderson Family from Athesea. She didn’t grow up in that household and was instead raised on a farm with cattle. It’s just that her looks are acceptable, but there’s no hiding the stench of cow dung and sheep poop on her.”

“Is that for real?! So, she’s just an uneducated girl. Tsk. Tsk. I don’t even know what the lower-class people eat as their main meal. I shudder at the thought of it. God bless us. I hope she doesn’t come close to within ten meters of me later on.”

“Don’t panic. Have you forgotten the rules of our gathering? After attendance has been taken, firstly, she would have to play a series of chess matches. Once the marks are tallied, the ones who come out of the match as the bottom three will have to leave. She’s just an uneducated girl, so do you guys think that she would be familiar with the ways of chess?”

“That’s right. Hahaha! That means it’s quite likely that she’ll have to leave the place in an embarrassing manner.”

Then, a bunch of mean people gathered around and waited to see Elise being kicked out of the room.

In fact, their words coincidentally were heard by Kenneth.

There was a fierce glint in his dark eyes as he glanced directly in the direction of those people. His domineering aura resulted in the previously happily talking crowd falling silent almost instantly.

Elise did not have a strong family background and neither did she have any actual skills, so they were not afraid of offending her with their words. However, they didn’t dare to offend Kenneth.

At that point, Kenneth turned in the other direction with a cold, indifferent expression as he continued to steer Elise inside.

Despite that, Elise had in fact heard those nasty words and turned to him curiously, “Who are those people attending the gathering?”

“They’re the elites from all over the world and come from all sorts of industries including physics and jewelry design. I’ll introduce you to them later on. It’s good to know more people because you could find the contact useful in the future. However, the reason for me bringing you here today isn’t actually to expand your contacts but to get to know Steven Randall.”

“Steven Randall? Who is he?”

“He’s the president of Randall International and he’s also the first man in the country to own and have an odd-colored jade for display. You’ve discovered two pieces of blood jade in succession, but you’ve only sold one of them. I reckon you have a plan for the other one, so he should be able to help you with it.”

At that moment, Elise was significantly shocked as she paused in her tracks.

So, the only reason he’s here for this gathering today is just to help me solve my problem?! Elise was quite torn and she didn’t quite know how to face Kenneth.

After quite some time, she finally managed to come up with a few awkward words through gritted teeth. “Thanks… I really don’t know what else I can say, so I can only say thanks. I hope that I’ll have the chance to help you in the future.”
