Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 918

Chapter 918 Danny Killed Raffle?

Danny curled his lips into a faint smile. Just then, from the corner of his eyes, he saw that Raffle was quietly led away from the venue by a man through the side door.

He had seen the aforementioned man before. The man was Wendy’s assistant. The celebration banquet had just begun. As the person in charge of the project, Raffle had no reason to leave so early.

There was something fishy going on. Since he spotted the incident, he couldn’t ignore it. “Darling.” Danny turned to Ariel and said, “I have to check on something. Will you be fine by yourself? How about I ask the driver to send you home first?”

“One of us must be here to mingle with the other guests. Go ahead. I can handle this.” Ariel was not the typical damsel in distress, so it was no problem for her to handle things alone.

“Alright then. Thanks.” Danny gave her a peck on the lips and chased after them in the direction they left. He ran to the side of the road, just in time to see several men pushing Raffle into the car. From the looks of it, Raffle was reluctant to go with them.

Danny got to his car, started the engine, and hurriedly chased after them. The other party was driving an MPV at a relatively normal speed. In order to not alert them, Danny followed them from a considerable distance.

They drove for about 20 minutes and gradually came to the outskirts of the city. There were almost no cars or pedestrians on the road.

At this point, the driver of the MPV suddenly accelerated as if he realized that they were being followed, and they almost got rid of Danny.

Shocked, Danny hurriedly stepped on the accelerator and followed them closely. He put his driving skills into use and managed to catch up with them thanks to his years of racing with Jamie.

Now that he had been exposed, he no longer hid his existence and followed the van closely. The distance between the two cars was only a few yards, and they maintained a delicate balance.

However, when they passed through an intersection, the trunk of the MPV suddenly opened, and a man was dropped without any warning. Danny quickly stepped on the brake, but it was too late.

He hit the man directly, sending him flying into the air. When the man landed on the ground, Danny’s car ran over him inevitably, and he rolled to the guardrail ten yards away and finally stopped. The MPV, on the other hand, had sped off.

He was in the middle of nowhere, and the surrounding area was dead silent. Danny stared blankly at the weeds illuminated by the dim headlights. It took him a long time to regain his composure.

Thankfully, his car didn’t break down. He immediately turned around and drove back to the scene of the accident.

Seeing the man’s clothes, he could confirm that the man was Raffle. He bent over and checked Raffle’s pulse and breathing although he knew the outcome.

Sure enough, Raffle was dead.

Danny was on pins and needles. Although Raffle and him disagreed on some matters, Raffle was not a bad person. Danny felt a strong sense of guilt because he hit and ran over Raffle. Moreover, he wasn’t sure if this was part of Wendy’s trap.

After pondering for a moment, he took out his phone and called Alexander. “Alex, I think I’ve been set up.” After hearing what had happened, Alexander immediately instructed, “Take the body home immediately and avoid the cameras. I’ll send someone to take care of the rest.”

Danny didn’t have time to think. He dragged the body into the car with great effort and sped home.

Meanwhile, the celebration banquet at the hall was coming to an end. Seeing that Ariel was alone, Maverick approached her. “Your little boyfriend has left early. Are you still waiting for him?”

Maverick was the kind of person who did not wear his heart on his sleeve. On the surface, he looked dismissive of Danny, but in fact, he had been observing Danny’s words and demeanor secretly.

With a faint smile, Ariel replied, “No. I’m just looking for a potential business partner who we can work with.”
