Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 87

Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 87

Elise was in a dilemma. She didn’t want to dance with Matthew, but she couldn’t find any reasons to refuse. Luckily for her, Alexander stood before her. “According to the rules, everyone’s dance partner is decided by the draw.” In other words, there was no changing of partners once it was set.

Finally finding an excuse, Elise said, “Sorry, Matthew. We got the same number, so I can’t dance with you.” PerfectNobody can refute me

Matthew smiled and slowly pulled his hand back. “It’s fine. Let’s leave it until next time then.”

Elise nodded. It was then the hall went dark, and everyone gasped. About a minute later, everyone heard the sound of wheels creaking, and someone was singing Happy Birthday

“Happy birthday to you… Happy birthday to you…”

The crowd parted and made way for Danny and Jack. They were pushing a big cake on a cart, heading toward Alexander. Everyone around them also started singing as well.

Once they were done singing Happy Birthday, someone shouted, “Make a wish, birthday boy!”

Everyone looked at Alexander. He put his hands together, closed his eyes, and made a wish. “Together, everyone. Three, two, one… Blow.”

Everyone blew out the candles, and the guests clapped.

At the same time, the lights came back on again. Alexander picked up the knife and cut out a slice before handing it to Elise. “Have a taste.”

She took it from him and thanked him before popping a small chunk into her mouth. The cream melted in her mouth at once.

“How is it?” Alexander asked.

Elise nodded. “Not bad.”

Alexander cut a slice of cake and popped a small chunk into his mouth as well. Immediately, his taste buds were assailed by the sweet scent of the cake, and a handsome smile appeared on his face.

Jonah was delighted to see the both of them standing together.

“Sir, I think Mr. Jonah likes Miss Elise.”

Jonah answered cryptically, “Perhaps, but honestly, they do make a good couple. I just hope he’ll realize that soon. You did a great job, but something is still missing.”

“Sir, you’re saying we should—”

Jonah stopped him. “Let’s stop while we’re ahead. This is a big project, and I want to take it slow. I just hope they’ll start going out eventually.”

“Don’t worry, sir. They’ll get it eventually,” the butler said. A smile broke out on Jonah’s lips, and he went back upstairs. Apparently, he was in a good mood.

 

It wasn’t until she got to the top floor did she realize where the sound was coming fromThe piano roomShe went over and noticed that the door was ajar. Once she stepped in, what she saw was a man sitting before the piano with his back turned to her. His fingers flew across the piano keys, playing the same tune Elise heard earlier. “Not bad,” she praised genuinely.
