Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 570

Chapter 570 Wedding Gift

Edwin and Celina were so frightened that they dared not say a word.

However, the instant Alexander turned toward Elise, his demeanor became gentle and amiable. The stark contrast in his attitude toward the two women made Celina so resentful that her temples throbbed, and she nearly passed out in a fit of rage.

Alexander lowered his voice as though he was afraid of startling Elise, saying, “It’s cold in the evening, and you’re gonna catch a cold if you stay outside for too long. Wait for me in the car.”

“Alright.” Elise nodded obediently. Then, without looking at Celina or Edwin, she turned and walked toward Alexander’s car parked by the roadside.

It wasn’t until Elise was out of sight that Alexander slowly turned to stare at the couple with a hostile gaze. “Stay away from Elise if you don’t want to get driven out of Cittadel. She’s my wife. Whoever makes her unhappy will be my enemy, and I’ll devote my lifetime to making sure that they spend the rest of their lives in agony.” With that, he shot a surly and murderous look at Celina before heading toward the car expressionlessly.

Celina involuntarily gulped a mouthful of saliva and watched in a daze as the couple got into the car one after another.

The instant the car door was closed with a thud, Celina suddenly shuddered as a thought flashed across her mind. It’s not just the car door that closes; what’s also being closed is a door that separates my world from Elise’s! From now on, Elise and I will belong to two different social classes, with me being of the lower class and Elise being far superior to me. There’ll be an insurmountable gap between us!

Feeling dizzy, she slumped to the ground like a clay doll that had lost its support.

Panicked at the sight of the scene, Edwin hurriedly stepped forward and supported Celina to prevent her from falling.

To Edwin’s surprise, Celina didn’t resist him at all. For a moment, he was secretly delighted, but when he lowered his head, he realized that something was wrong. Celina looked totally absentminded as though she had lost her soul. Not only was she completely unaware of him approaching her, but she could no longer sense everything around her. “Nana! Nana!” Panic-stricken, he shook her body vigorously. Please, anyone, save my beloved!

However, the bodyguards were even more panic-stricken than he was, so none of them could decide what to do.

…

Meanwhile, as soon as Alexander got into the car, he started the engine and began driving, looking calm and relaxed.

On the other hand, Elise felt somewhat ill at ease, and she dared not look at the man. Now that we’re husband and wife, how are we supposed to get along with each other? Should I call him “darling” instead of his first name? At the thought of the word “darling,” her cheeks burned again, and she secretly chided herself for being a wimp.

Just as she was lost in thought, Alexander suddenly placed his warm palm on her forehead. “You seem to have been feeling out of sorts since just now. Are you alright?” he asked in a soft voice.

Elise took a deep breath. Well, getting married is indeed different. In the past, he would’ve asked for my consent before holding my hand or hugging me; now he does all of this without the slightest hesitation. We’re less reserved with each other, and we become more intimate. This feels pretty good. “I’m fine. Maybe it’s just that I’ve been sitting in the car for too long, so it feels a little stuffy.” The city hall was far from their home, and it took a long time for them to get there, so she wasn’t really lying about it.

As soon as Elise said that, the car window next to her slowly wound down until only one-third of it was left. “It was my fault for getting so excited that I forgot about it. Let’s roll down the window for some fresh air. Still, you can’t get in a draft, or you’re gonna have a headache. I’m taking you to a place, which will take about an hour. Take a nap first if you’re tired.”

“Uh-huh.” Elise enjoyed the feeling of having everything arranged by the man. Leaning back in her seat, she fell asleep.

When Elise woke up, it was dark outside. Seeing the familiar bar sign outside the car, she stretched herself a little. Then, when she turned her head and saw that Alexander was also taking a nap, she was involuntarily lost in thought. This guy is now my husband, the person closest to me. Seeing a few bristles on his chin, she involuntarily put out her forefinger and poked his chin.

Suddenly, Alexander opened his eyes and woke up. “Awake already?” he asked her.

“Mm-hm.” Elise smiled with secret delight. It feels kinda fun, she thought. “I had a good sleep.”
