Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 752

Chapter 752 I Don’t Want You to Leave

Christopher was even more sincere with his feelings compared to the time he confessed in the garden. Besides, his eyes shone with a new sense of determination as he had burned his bridges. His eyes told everyone of his love for Yuri.

However, Yuri was unable to form an answer as she was facing a dilemma. She didn’t have the opportunity to finish her words last time, which was to tell him she only liked him as a friend.

Seeing the excited Christopher, she couldn’t bring herself to tell him the harsh truth.

He took her silence as a protest of his lack of sincerity, so he took out a small box from his pocket in panic and showed it to her. “I’ve even prepared the ring! Yuri, I want you to understand that I’m not acting on impulse.”

At that, he got down on one knee while his hands were still presenting the ring to her. “Will you spend the rest of your life with me?”

Yuri gave him a smile of resignation and tried to help him from the ground but before her hands could touch Christopher, someone rushed out from the side. That person snatched the ring from him and strode away from them.

As Yuri turned her head to see who it was, she saw Brendan throwing the ring out of the window with all his might.

It was too late for Christopher to stop Brendan. The former leaned on the windowsill as he poked his upper body out from the window to look for the ring, but it was nowhere to be found.

Brendan turned to look at them with a blank expression, but his eyes were burning with ice-cold anger and resentment. “Alexander is still in danger. How dare you act all lovey-dovey before my eyes as if it doesn’t matter to you?! The Griffith Family doesn’t need guests like you. Please leave now.”

“Brendan Griffith!” Christopher pounced on him and pushed him against the wall while grabbing him by the collar. “You went overboard!”

“Do it.” Brendan grabbed Christopher’s wrist and looked at him with a dark expression, ready for any moves Christopher would land on him.

“What happened?” Just as Elise stepped out from the corner, she saw the commotion.

“It’s nothing,” Yuri interrupted before any of them could answer as she walked toward Christopher and pulled him away from Brendan. Then, Yuri bowed at Elise as she apologized, “I’m sorry, Mrs. Griffith. We can’t help much when you are in trouble, so we’ll set off today to avoid causing further problems. ”

Then, Yuri signaled Christopher with a look and both of them went back to their rooms to pack up their things. Soon, Brendan and Elise were the only ones who remained in the corridor. The unspoken thoughts of being about to part ways with Yuri were hanging between them.

“Are you happy now for chasing her away?” Elise sighed before she lifted her chin to watch Brendan as she gave him her advice. “You’re Alexander’s brother, so I treat you like my own brother too. I know I should not meddle in your business, but I want to tell you my opinion. Love needs tenderness to nurture. Some people will treat it with harsh attitudes and words, but it seldom bears fruit. If you push her away too hard, you can’t expect her to come back to you.”

“Do you expect me to be a gentleman and see her wearing the ring? Do you expect me to wish them a happy ever after life?” Brendan wasn’t listening to her advice. “I can’t do that.”

He went into his room after he finished his words. Elise could only shake her head. Love is uncontrollable.

At that moment, an incoming call steered her attention away from the incident. She glanced at the called ID and rejected the call. After she shoved the device into her pocket, she walked down the stairs as if nothing happened.

Elijah called Elise thrice in an hour, but she never once answered his call. Losing his patience, he finally got out of his car and walked into the Griffith Residence.

Most of the family members were staying on the second floor for the time being, which was why he didn’t see any of them when he stepped into the hall.
