Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 871

Chapter 871 Can’t Skip the Bill

It would be best if you could introduce a rich young master to be my son-in-law. Nodding, Alexander asked, “I understand. Is that all?”

“That’s all for now.” Afraid that his wife and daughter might embarrass him, Onyx quickly spoke up. “Ok.” As Alexander nodded again, he looked at the door and snapped his fingers.

The next second, a suit-clad assistant came in and passed a kraft paper bag to Onyx. Puzzled, he retrieved the paper bag and opened it to reveal the document inside. His face fell after reading its content.

Inside the paper bag was a debt agreement with Anastasia’s signature. It was written very clearly that Anastasia owed Alexander five million Cittadel Crowns. Onyx questioned Alexander with a darkened face, “Why are you letting me see this?”

Spreading his hands innocently, Alexander reasoned, “Didn’t you say you wanted to bring Anastasia away? Since you and Anastasia have reconciled and reestablished your relationship as a family, you should pay back the money she owes me. Once you pay her debts, you can bring her home.”

When Lyra heard that, she was immediately flustered. “About that, isn’t Anastasia your girlfriend? Why does she have to pay you back the money you gave her?”

With an expressionless face, Alexander replied, “Mrs. White, I own a business, not a charity center. What’s more, you should pay back what you owe. Don’t tell me you’re trying to skip the bill?”

Once he said that, the entire hall fell dead silent.

The Whites looked at each other, completely at a loss for what to do.

We came here to take advantage of Anastasia. It’s fine if we don’t get any advantage, but why do we have to solve such a huge problem?

Didn’t the rumors about Alexander say that he’s very generous? Why is he being so stingy to a woman from the White Family?

Without waiting for them to respond, Alexander fished out his phone from his pocket and deliberately showed it to the White Family. Then, he casually said, “Even if you want to skip the bill, I’ve already recorded everything you said earlier, so there’s no way out for you, Mr. White. Soon, the lawyers at Smith Co. will apply for a complaint and have all of the White Family’s assets frozen to be used for repaying Anastasia’s debt.”

Then, he paused for a moment before faking a smile while looking at Adelpha. “Oh, right. You said you wanted to live with us, right? Actually, there’s no place for you in the Griffith Residence, but since you’re so sincere, you can stay here and become a low-grade servant. You can even earn some money to pay your sister’s debt.”

“That’s not possible!” Lyra was anxious and she quickly pulled her daughter behind her back. “Mr. Griffith, Anastasia is the one who owes you money. How can you let my daughter work for you to help others pay their debt? She has yet to marry someone!”

“It was you who said you wanted her to catch up with Anastasia. If I let her stay here and become the nanny of the children, she’ll instantly become a mother too. Isn’t that what you wanted?” Alexander coldly stood up and tidied his outfit.

“What I meant is for you to help Adelpha find a good family to marry into. Who knew you’d misunderstand me and make such an arrangement?!” Lyra was exasperated.

“I don’t have the time and effort to guess what you mean. I offered to let her be the children’s nanny because I pity your family and want to give you a high-salary job. Once the permit has been issued, every penny the White Family owns will be deducted. If you don’t have the salary I’m willing to pay you, all of you will have to suffer and wait for your death. That’s all I have to say. You guys can think about which option to choose.”

Onyx felt dizzy and fell back onto the couch. “Anastasia is such a spendthrift. I must owe her something in my last life! That ungrateful woman! I’m so pissed…”

…

Danny International Finance Corporation.

9.00AM.

After Danny sent Ariel to her office with a goodbye kiss, he turned around and ran out of the company.

“Hey, where are you going?” Ariel tried to call him back.

However, he did not get what she meant. He walked toward the elevator while smiling. “I’m going to meet a client. New business and we’re going to have a large project. I can’t ruin it at the last moment, so I must leave now. I’ll come back to pick you up tonight!”

“Wait, Danny. You—”

At least, tell me what project it is… Before she could ask that, Danny had already gone inside the elevator and disappeared from her line of sight.

She let out a depressed sigh and turned to look at the familiar office, but there was an empty feeling inside her.
