Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 892

Chapter 892 Perfection is Her Flaw

Irvin nodded before turning to look at Alexia. Elise glanced at her daughter for a while before raising her hand to swear an oath once more. “The same goes for Alexia, too!”

“Yep!” Alexia held her hand up half-heartedly before she tottered over to hold Irvin’s face and kiss him. “You can’t be angry after I’ve kissed you, Irvin. An angry boy is a naughty boy.”

Irvin shook his head before heading upstairs. “I can’t deal with you two!” With his hands behind his back and a slightly hunched posture, he walked up the stairs the way an old man would. Both Elise and Alexia chuckled at the sight of this. After Elise was done laughing, she came up with a new idea. Since we can’t disturb Irvin anymore… “Why don’t we pay Daddy a visit, Alexia?”

“Are you talking about Mr. Griffith? Did he agree to be our daddy?” Alexia grabbed her mother’s arm in excitement. “Yeah, he did.” Elise beamed. “But you’re only allowed to call him Daddy when no one else is around. When there are other people in the room, you have to call him Mr. Griffith. This is our little secret, okay?”

“I got it!” Alexia spun around excitedly. “Yay, I’ve found the best father in the world!”

…

It was late at night when Elise and Alexia came out of the elevator at Smith Co.’s headquarters. Elise had prepared some food for Alexander, and she held her daughter’s hand as they walked over to the president’s office. It was past working hours, so Alexander’s assistants had gotten off work, and all the lights had been turned off except the ones that lit up the walkway. When they arrived at the office, they saw Alexander working through the glass window.

The dim lights in the office shone down on a corner of the office table, and Alexander’s sharp features were further enhanced by the shadows. He looked especially elegant and classy as he focused on his work, and he even seemed rather sexy because of his messy fringe. Men always look the coolest when they’re being all serious, Elise thought to herself.

“He’s so handsome!” Elise snapped back into reality when she heard Alexia’s excited cries. “Shh!” Elise held her finger to her lips before she pulled her phone out and placed her packed meal aside. She lifted Alexia in her arm before she adjusted her front camera angle so that she could take a selfie with Alexander, who was hard at work, in the background. However, she forgot to keep her phone silent, and Alexander was immediately alerted when he heard the sound of the shutter. “Who’s there?” he asked.

“It’s me!” Elise replied before she walked into the room with her food in one hand while holding Alexia’s hand with the other. Alexander couldn’t hide the excitement on his face the moment he saw them. He left his desk and walked over to greet them. “What are you guys doing here?”

Elise shut the door behind her before she presented the meal that she had prepared. “I’m here to deliver some homemade supper, Mr. Griffith.” The moment the door was shut, Alexia let go of Elise’s hand before running over to the man. “Daddy!”

Alexander felt as if he were on cloud nine when he heard Alexia’s sweet voice and felt her warm and tight hug against him. He felt as if his heart had melted, and he couldn’t help but curl his lips into a huge smile as he held Alexia up in the air. “Hey, Lexi. Tell me, who taught you to call me by that name?”

“I’ve wanted to do it for a long time!” she claimed proudly. “Don’t worry, Daddy. This is our little secret, and I won’t tell anyone else about it. I’ll only tell Irvin! Hehe.” Alexander ruffled the girl’s fluffy hair. He felt a surge of emotions running through him when he finally heard the young girl call him her father. “You’re such a good girl, Lexi.”

She pressed her head into the man’s palm and rubbed against his hand as if she were a kitten. Now that Mr. Griffith is my daddy, it feels rather different even as he’s patting me on the head. Alexander couldn’t help but feel sorry when he saw the loving look on his daughter’s face. “It’s really late. You guys shouldn’t be out. It’s dangerous,” he uttered.

“Well, we didn’t have a choice. Your son thought we were being too loud, so we had no choice but to switch our focus to someone else. Hey, you’re not going to chase us out too, are you?” Elise uttered as she feigned anger.
