Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 828

Chapter 828 All Dead

“Have you heard of the story of the House of Medici? Without them, artists weren’t appreciated and supported as they wither away without the funds. The same applies to us. Without me, you won’t be anything too. We’re in the same boat, Anastasia. If you push it too far, I may just flip it over.” Margaret narrowed her eyes, and there was a threatening glint in them.

If this was seven years ago, Elise might have been wary of her. However, the time was right, and everything had fallen into place. She didn’t need to be afraid anymore.

“If that’s the case, I’m afraid this place doesn’t welcome you anymore, Miss Ainsley. The door’s that way. Please see yourself out.” Elise didn’t hesitate to kick her out.

“Well, it’s your choice to break this up. Don’t regret it,” Margaret warned her before leaving.

Elise wasn’t fazed as she picked up her coffee and slowly took a sip.

Margaret and Edmond’s relationship was at its end. She just needed to do something, and they would fall into the depths of hell. There was no need for her to be worried.

It was late at night when Elise was ready to go to bed when she suddenly heard a child crying from outside her room.

After she had listened for a while, she realized the sound was coming from Mimi’s room. So, she quickly got down from the bed and rushed over.

Just as she arrived at Mimi’s room door, Irvin also came out from his room.

“Mommy, it sounds like Mimi’s crying.”

“Yeah, I heard it too.” Elise nodded before pushing the door open and entering the room.

Sure enough, Mimi was crying her heart out on the bed.

Elise walked in and carried Mimi as she patiently comforted her, “Don’t cry, Mimi. We’re here. Don’t be scared.”

Mimi could not stop sobbing as she whimpered, “Miss Elise, Mama, and Papa are dead. There’s so much blood. I’m so scared.”

“It’s not true. Don’t worry. Dreams are the opposite of reality. Look, Mimi. It’s only Irvin and me here with you right now. There’s no blood, right?” Elise gently consoled her.

Mimi sniffled and slowly opened her eyes to see Irvin before she stopped crying.

Once Elise had gotten her to calm down, she tried to ask about her family again. “Mimi, do you remember what your last name is? Do you remember where your home is? What about your family members?”

Mimi pondered for a while but dipped her head down and murmured, “I don’t remember.”

Her blatant act of avoidance did not escape Elise’s eyes. Yet, that made Elise wonder why the young child would not tell if she knew.

She respected the child and did not force her to reveal her identity. Then, she carried her to Alexia’s room.

Alexia was also awakened by the noise just now, but she was exhausted. So, she was dozing off sitting on the bed when they entered.

“Lexi.” Elise softly woke her up. “Is it alright if Mimi sleeps with you from now on?”

“Okay.” She yawned as she scooted onto the other side of the bed with her eyes half-closed to give Mimi some space to lay down.

Elise placed Mimi on the bed, and Alexia reached over and embraced Mimi as they quickly fell asleep together.

“Mommy, why don’t I stay with them as well?” Irvin was still worried.
