Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 83

 

After Elise ran out of the restaurant, she stopped a taxi right by the side of the road. After getting in the car, she breathed a sigh of relief. “Damn. That was scary. What the hell happened there?” Elise muttered to herself. Why did Matthew Griffith confess to me all of a sudden?Elise subconsciously brought out her phone and looked at her face while thinking that she looked extremely ugly! Whenever ordinary men saw her face, they couldn’t wait to run away immediately—who would fall for an ugly girl like her? Moreover, one could feel whether one truly liked someone or not.

 

Although Matthew said that he liked her just now, she could not feel that kind of affection at all, and she also felt no such feelings toward Matthew, so she simply left. The taxi steadily halted to a stop at the Griffith Residence. After Elise paid the driver, she opened the door and got out of the car.

She was just walking into the yard when she happened to bump into Alexander, who also just got home. When he saw her worried expression, Alexander initiated the conversation and asked, “What happened to you? You look like you’ve lost your soul.” Elise raised her eyes and shook her head. “N-Nothing. I’m fine.” Alexander was a little unconvinced, but he didn’t dig any further. The two entered the door one after the other and went back to their respective rooms.

Elise locked the door and took a deep breath. Although she rejected Matthew just now, it would be quite uncomfortable to live under the same roof in the future. After all, they would see each other everyday in the house no matter what. Elise was feeling a little helpless. As she sat on her chair, she received a message from Alexander. ‘Miss Sare, are you there?’ Elise looked at the notification. On weekdays, Alexander usually comes back late because he’s busy with company affairs, but he came back early today.

Could it be to learn Arisian? When Elise thought of this possibility, her mouth twitched slightly as she typed a reply. ‘Yes. Get ready. We’ll start the class in five minutes.’ After sending the message, Elise hurriedly took out an explanation of the basic units of Arisian that she had already prepared. After she was ready, she began teaching.

Elise started from the most basic vocabulary, and she taught very well and thoroughly. Almost every detail was explained in depth, and Alexander, who was next door, also listened carefully while taking notes on almost every vocabulary. An hour soon ended. After class, Elise stretched. At the same time, she couldn’t help but feel that being a teacher really wasn’t an easy task! She got up and brought her cup with her to go downstairs.

Then, she turned into the kitchen to pour herself a cup of milk, but as she turned the corner, she happened to bump into Matthew, who had just returned. Seeing him, Elise almost choked from the surprise. Pretending that she didn’t see him, she planned to leave just like that, but she was unabashedly pulled by Matthew by her arm. “Do you really dislike seeing me?” Elise hurriedly struggled. “What are you doing? Let me go!”

“Elise, I’m serious.” Matthew’s tone contained a hint of helplessness. “I’m not joking with you, okay? I really like you. Can you reconsider your decision? Please?” Elise’s brows furrowed. “I’ve already said it clearly. I don’t like you. I really hope you stop saying such things again.” She then withdrew her hand violently from his grip and took a few steps back. “I’m sorry!” Elise was about to leave, but Matthew was not reconciled.

“Did you reject me because you fell in love with someone else?” For the first time, Elise felt that Matthew was being unreasonable. “I’m sorry, but this is my private matter, so I really don’t see any need to explain myself to you.” Matthew stared at her. “You only need to answer me yes or no.” Just as Elise was about to speak, she glanced from the corner of her eyes and saw a figure, only to see Alexander standing at the corner at some point of their conversation.

Matthew, too, saw Alexander, and froze in place. Elise was relieved and walked away. After she left, there was only Matthew and Alexander left in the kitchen. Alexander took the cup and poured a glass of water, as if nothing had happened. After drinking, he finally said calmly, “It seems that you have a crush on that girl.” Matthew replied emotionlessly, “Alex, have you started to care about my matters too?” Alexander looked back at him.
