Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 818

Chapter 818 Picked up a Little Something

The girl’s hair was tousled, and her face was as dirty as her hands. She had a pair of amazingly bright eyes that made her look like a deer caught in headlights.

“Don’t hit me! Ah!” Startled, she started bawling with the corners of her lips downturned.

Her crying immediately left Irvin dumbfounded, and he began pacing back and forth in a hurry. “Oh no, don’t cry. I didn’t do anything to you. I’ll apologize to you, so please don’t cry?”

The girl stopped crying upon hearing that, and she gaped at him with wide eyes. She then resumed with her wailing, only this time, she was louder.

Panicked, Irvin quickly sucked in a cold breath of air and scratched his head.

The one thing he couldn’t stand the most was the tears of a girl. His mother had taught him that boys weren’t supposed to bully girls. With that in mind, Irvin had always treated girls with good manners.

But this unhygienic little girl wasn’t reacting like how he had thought she would. She was already crying so hard he wanted to pull his hair out despite not having done anything to her.

I know what to do!

As an idea came to him, he swiftly darted away, and soon came back holding the freshly made ganache-filled chocolate.

The girl was already howling and crying for her mother by now. As Irvin watched her putting her all into crying, he suddenly felt entertained by the sight, so he kept watching for a while before he eventually scooped a spoonful of chocolate and shoved it into her opened mouth.

“Boo— Huh?”

The crying abruptly stopped then. The girl dazedly closed her mouth and as soon as she was hit by the mellow fragrance of the chocolate, she immediately marveled in this unique sweetness. She squeezed her small lips shut tightly, for fear that the chocolate would fall out. She also didn’t forget to sniffle.

Her reaction made Irvin let out a long sigh. Girls are all the same, he concluded. Be it abroad or local, all girls like desserts.

“Hey, take this.” He handed over the rest of the chocolate. “You are in luck. I made this myself. My mom and sister are the only ones who have had it before. You are the third person to eat it.”

The girl seemed to have thrown all her fears aside as she wiggled out from under the table and took the cake from him. She proceeded to send spoon after spoon of chocolate into her mouth, and it didn’t take long before a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

Irvin let out a smile of his own as well while he looked at her. One of the reasons he enjoyed cooking was because he liked how it felt to heal souls with good food.

Of course, the only people he wanted to heal were Elise and Alexia. The little girl was merely his ‘accident’ today.

However, it was just a matter of time before the frown on Irvin’s face turned into a frown; the girl had started sobbing again after she finished the whole box of chocolate.

“Y-You…” Irvin began to panic. “Surely chocolate can’t taste so bad that it makes you cry?!”

The girl raised her chin and looked at him with her watery eyes. “It is so yummy…”

“What?” Irvin was stunned once again.

“What if I can’t have this anymore after today?” She pouted grievously. As soon as she uttered those words, big droplets of tears came rolling out of her eyes and down her plump and bouncy cheeks, leaving tear stains behind.

The boy was instantly rendered speechless as his mind went blank.

He only came back to his senses after a long time. “What is your name? Where do you live?” he asked in all seriousness.

“I am Mimi,” the girl muttered. “I don’t have a home, and I am all alone. Papa and Mama are dead.”

“Mimi?” That’s cute.

He immediately shook his head to get rid of the thought as he put on his manly mask again.

”My name is Irvin White. You can call me Irvin. You can be my little brother if you want more chocolate. I will give you a place to stay and feed you well. Any objections?”
