Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 54

Chapter 54

Seeing that Elise finished reading the report, Jonas asked, “What do you think?”

Elise answered truthfully, “Griffith Group’s financial report is outstanding, and there seems to be almost no problem, but…”

She trailed off and glanced at Alexander. “But I think there’s a problem with one of the statistics.”

Upon hearing her, Alexander had his eyes brightened while Jonas looked calm. “Tell me about the problem.”

Elise took the report and flipped it open to page five before pointing at one of the statistics. “This project, the Genesis-although the financial report shows that it is gaining profit, you’ll realize after seeing the same projects that the Genesis is gaining way too little in terms of profit—there might be a problem here.”

Immediately, she pointed out the problem in the report. The projects got the same amount of investments but had discrepancies in profits. Its not convincing to me that theres nothing fishy about this project.

At this moment, Jonas grinned. “Not bad, Ellie! You have sharp eyes! Alex, get your men to investigate this.”

“Yes, Grandpa.”

“By the way, were you guys discussing hiring a new interpreter during the meeting just now?”

Alexander could feel a headache rising hearing that. If they only needed a regular interpreter, they would definitely have no problem finding one by offering high pay. However, it was too hard to find an interpreter for the Arise language.

“Grandpa, I’ll continue to follow up with the interpreter’s case. We will surely find a suitable candidate.”

“Alright. I won’t get involved in it if that’s so. Still, plan your steps properly.”

“I understand, Grandpa.”

 

Then Jonas stood up and turned toward Elise. “Ellie, you should stay at the company for a while and return with Alex later on. I still have matters that I need to wrap up here.”

“It’s fine, Grandpa. You don’t have to worry about me. I’ll get back on my own in a bit.”

Still, Alexander quickly interrupted Elise before she could say more. “Don’t worry, Grandpa. I’ll send her home.”

“Alright. Please take care of Ellie for me.”

Then Jonas got up and left. After he left, Alexander got his secretary to bring Elise to the lounge. “You can rest here for a bit. There are snacks in the drawer, and you can eat them if you’re hungry. I’ll take you out for dinner once I’m done with my work.”

Though feeling rather awkward, Elise nodded. “Actually, you don’t have to take care of me since I’m not a kid anymore.”

However, there was a serious look on Alexander’s face. “I already promised grandpa that I’ll take care of you well, so don’t make things hard for me.”

Shrugging, Elise no longer refused Alexander’s offer. “Can I borrow your laptop?”

Immediately, Alexander got his secretary to bring Elise a laptop. After settling Elise down, he went back to his office to continue working.

Unbeknownst to Alexander, Elise started tapping away at the keyboard after he left. She was typing at lightning speed as rows and rows of codes filled the laptop screen while she analyzed the content on the screen breezily. Finally, the laptop browser brought her to Griffith Group’s hiring portal.

Staring at the ‘Hiring Arise Interpreter’ job post, she recalled hearing that they were looking for Arise interpreters during the meeting just now. Coincidentally, Elise studied the Arise language and was fluent in it.

 

Then she hit the ‘apply’ button. At the same time, Alexander’s assistant exclaimed in the president’s office, “Young Master Griffith, someone just applied for the Arise interpreter job!”

Narrowing his eyes, Alexander replied, “We shall test this person’s ability through the

Right then, Alexander’s eyes darkened. Online realtime interpretation without revealing their face? How mysterious!
