Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 65

Chapter 65

Elise asked calmly, “Why are you surprised?”

Amanda felt a little guilty, but she braced herself and mumbled, “No, not really.”

She then made a move to leave, but she heard Elise enunciating her words. “You’re the thief, aren’t you?”

Upon hearing Elise’s question, a somewhat nervous Amanda paused in her tracks. “What nonsense are you saying? What thief?”

“If you didn’t steal anything, then why did you leave when everyone was ready to have their fingerprints compared?” Elise smiled. “And why would you come here when you heard our classmates talk about the CCTV footage?”

There was denial in Amanda’s tone. “I just happened to pass by.”

When she heard Amanda’s reply, Elise shrugged. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)“I knew you won’t admit it so easily, but evidence speaks louder than words. Tell me, what would happen if I pass this

evidence to the police?”

This left Amanda in a state of panic. “What evidence? How did you get it?”

Elise looked at Amanda as if she was looking at a clown. “Everyone slips up sometimes. What do you think? Do I really have the evidence? Or, do I not?”

Amanda’s forehead broke out in cold sweat because she completely broke down then.

“I planned to give you a chance, but since you’re so stubborn, I guess I’ll skip that stage. I’ll hand this evidence over to the police right away.”

“No—” Amanda unconsciously answered.

Elise looked at Amanda with a wry smile, creating the impression that she was waiting for Amanda to continue with her words. Amanda wasn’t sure whether Elise really had the evidence or not, but she wasn’t ready to take any risks.

If Elise really passed the evidence to the police, Amanda would be done for.

Since there were only two of them and judging by the way Elise spoke, she was trying

to negotiate.

“What conditions do you have then?” Amanda immediately asked.

Elise gave a dry smile as she replied, “So, you’re admitting that you’re the one who did it?”

Amanda nodded slightly. “Just tell me what you want and I’ll do everything I can to fulfill those conditions. However, I want you to give all the evidence you have to me.”

“How would I know if you’re lying or not?” Elise shook her head. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)“You said that you stole the watch, but what is your motive? Also, when did you do it?”

Since Elise was the only other person there, Amanda didn’t have any intentions to beat around the bush. “I was the one who took the watch and yes, I also placed it in your bag. I merely did it to ruin the friendship between you three. As for when, I just found an opportunity and executed the deed.”

Elise smiled coldly. “At least you’re being honest!”

Amanda clenched her fists. “You know everything now. I have no reason to hide from you, right? Tell me, what should I do in exchange for the evidence?”

Elise took her time to answer. She took a while to think before she replied, “Actually… I didn’t have the evidence, but I do now.”

As soon as she said that, the door to the security room opened. All their classmates walked in with Samantha and Riley at the lead. Without saying anything, Samantha delivered a slap across Amanda’s face, causing Amanda to be stunned by the impact.

Riley said viciously, “I knew it would be you. You were already a troublemaker before this, but you’re a thief now! Your actions are horrible!”

“Right?! How could I have trained with a person like you? Unbelievable!” The other

classmates also started to voice their thoughts aloud.

It was only at this moment when Amanda finally realized that Elise had set the trap.
