Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 964

“Look at you two, strangling each other while Myres is out there living his best life. I’d be better off dead to have a brother and a boyfriend like you two if I were Alicia.”

Those who weren’t obsessed had a bird’s-eye view, and Narissa’s hard-hitting words woke the pair up definitively.

At that, Jamie and Paul gazed at each other, reconciling tacitly after gaining confirmation within themselves.

“Don’t worry. Gale Myres won’t be laughing much longer. We’ll be able to avenge Alicia soon,” Elise steered the situation back before asking to speak to Narissa alone in a room.

Narissa, on the other hand, couldn’t help feeling wary, seeing Elise acting mysterious.

“Is there something you want me to do?” she asked.

“You can put it that way,” replied Elise earnestly while grabbing Narissa’s hand as they stood face to face.

“Alicia’s issue gave me a warning. If the enemy risks everything and we don’t receive the news in time, we’ll make the wrong decision easily. So, I’ve decided to tell you the truth.”

“What truth?” Narissa’s ears perked up.

As Elise turned the voice changer off, her former signature enchanting voice returned when she spoke again. “Can you tell who I am, Rissa?”

“Elise?!” Narissa’s eyes lit up, and she clutched Elise’s hands in joy. “You’re still alive!”

Narissa bawled with joy as she wrapped her arms around Elise and pulled the latter into her arms before Elise could say anything else.

“What matters is that you’re alive. Hahaha, thank the heavens! Ah, Elise, I love you!”

Even Elise had a tear drop at the corner of her eyes as she patted her best friend’s back as though coaxing a child. “You child.”

“Come on, let me take a good look at you. Take the mask off!”

It felt so surreal to Narissa that she couldn’t wait to realize the dream.

“Maybe some other time,” Elise rejected her gently. “l have an injury on my face. The scar is a work in progress. I’ll let you take a look when it’s completely healed.”

“So what if there’s a scar?! Scar or no scar, you’re Elise Sinclair, my best friend. Come on, let me take a look at you.” Narissa could finally shamelessly whine again.

As much as she clicked with Anastasia before knowing Anastasia was the one and only Elise, Narissa still behaved in an uptight manner and couldn’t act chummy with Anastasia.

Fortunately for her, Elise had returned, and she no longer had to be uptight all the time again.

“Two more months. I’ll show you in two more months,” Elise compromised.

No woman in this world wasn’t vain.

As confident as Elise was, she would still want to look her best in front of her friends and family. In fact, she would deliberately only remove her mask to apply the medicine at night. That way, Alexander wouldn’t see it, and the kids wouldn’t be frightened.

Sure, the scar was already barely noticeable, but Elise was still self-conscious, and being her best friend for years, Narissa naturally caught Elise’s worry quickly.

At that, she changed the subject at once. “You said you have a job for me. What is it?”

Elise collected herself and asked gravely, “Do you still want to marry Myres?”

“Well, I never planned on marrying him in the first place. He asked me to lend him the title of the Cuber Family’s fiancé, and I only let him be until now for old time’s sake,” Narissa related frankly.

“You have to continue this favor,” Elise said, baffling Narissa.

“Why?”

Narissa knew Gale was no good man after finding out he brought his men to seize Jamie. Then, after learning about the Heidelberg siblings’ issue, she, even more so, wanted nothing more than to call off the engagement at once.

“Hey, hey, take it easy and hear me out,” Elise explained. “I’ll be able to obtain Myres’ incriminating evidence very soon, but they’re still not enough to put him behind bars for good. You try and convince your dad to lull him into a false sense of security. Given Myres’ greed, he certainly won’t give up the chance to become your real fiancé.”

“Play the long game. Got it. What do you want me to do?”
