Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 604

Chapter 604 Mistaken

Martin was so beside himself with rage that he crumpled the lesson plan in his arms. This Elise girl doesn’t behave like a student at all! Not only did she get in through the back door, but she openly mixes with several guys and gets into a complicated relationship with Kenneth afterward.

And now, she’s presented us with a husband! Just how many more men does she have around her?! On top of being unfriendly toward her classmates and disrespectful of her teachers, she keeps making trouble. What order is there to speak of if the world is full of students like her?! This is bad; I can’t wait another month. I’ve got to find a way to bring the monthly tests forward to get rid of Elise—that rotten apple—as soon as possible!

…

Meanwhile, Elise took a drink from the almond milk that Alexander had prepared beforehand in the car before it occurred to her to ask, “What brings you to the school today? Didn’t you have something to do last night? Why get up so early?”

Alexander replied, “Joey said you’d be flying to Landred City today, so she had me drive you to the airport and see you off since she feared she might not have time for that.”

“Joey?” Elise was surprised. “How did she learn that I’d be going to Landred City?”

“Mr. Fassbender told her that, I guess,” replied Alexander.

“What about you, then?” Elise diverted the subject. She asked with some anticipation, “Wanna go to Landred City with me?” After all, Alexis was originally a surprise she had prepared for Alexander, though the latter was still unaware of it even now.

To her disappointment, though, Alexander replied apologetically, “It’s true that I’ll be going to Landred City, but I’m afraid I won’t be able to go with you. I have to fly to Riverdale before that to take care of something else.”

“It’s okay. Business before pleasure, right?” Well, it’s better for him to find it out on his own. The brand is there and isn’t gonna disappear, anyway, she thought to herself.

Alexander left after driving Elise to the airport.

An hour later, Elise’s flight touched down at the airport, and Tom came personally to pick her up as they headed straight from the airport to the venue for the jewelry design competition.

…

The annual jewelry design competition was an unprecedentedly spectacular event, and the venue was overflowing with crowds that extended everywhere from the entrance to the centermost part of the conference hall. Designers who would otherwise have seemed aloof and unapproachable in magazines now came to life, becoming living advertisements as they moved actively around their respective works.

Frostine and Tina waited for Tom and Elise to arrive before the four of them stepped into the conference hall together. As soon as they entered, Tina started taking deep breaths. She mumbled to herself, “Can we set the world on fire on such a grand occasion?”

Tom gave her hand a gentle squeeze. “Relax. We should believe in Miss Murray’s skills.”

Upon hearing this, Frostine pursed her lips and looked away impassively.

“I do believe in Frostine, of course, but today’s really gonna be a contest among the best designers in the field. See the woman dressed in fur who has just gone over there?” Tina jutted her chin toward the person ahead of them on the left. “That’s Fiona Shepherd, the winner of last year’s jewelry design competition. All her designs in the past year have been featured on Diamond Weekly’s covers.”

“Diamond Weekly, you say? That’s just a third-rate magazine published by some self-proclaimed media outlet to draw public attention. I can get you featured on their covers if you like,” Tom joked.
