Chapter 229 Be Careful; Don’t Let Your Secret Out, Coolest Girl in Town
It was hard enough to get a normal ticket into H’s fan meeting, let alone a VIP one. However, Elise onlysmiled enigmatically at Alexander. “It’s a secret. I have something to tell you after the fan meeting. Willyou wait for me?” “Of course!” Alexander promised without hesitation. Grinning at him, she continued,“I’ll be going to bed now. I have exams tomorrow. You should rest early as well. Goodnight!”“Goodnight!” After returning to her room, Elise stared at herself in the mirror for a moment beforeremoving her makeup. Her plan was to meet him in her truest form after the fan meeting.
What kind of expression will he have? As images of the various responses he could have floatedthrough her mind, she chuckled and muttered to herself, “I can only hope he isn’t too shocked.” Thenext morning was the first day of the college entrance examination. The Language test took place inthe morning, while the Math test took place in the afternoon. Despite having two examinations back-to-back, Elise dealt with them easily. On the second day, she had Comprehensive Liberal Arts in themorning and Chinese in the afternoon. After the final exam was finished, the entire academic buildingwas filled with jubilation.
As Elise followed the crowd out of the building, she lifted her head to look up at the peaceful sky aboveher. Finally, she took a deep breath and smiled. “We’re finally done!” Mikayla screeched, rushing up toher and throwing an arm around her shoulders. “I have no idea how I made it through the past month,but we’re finally done!” Elise offered Mikayla a small smile in return. “And so our high school lives havecome to a close. What are your plans for the holidays?” After a moment of serious thought, Mikayla toldher, “I’m going to H’s fan meeting and then on vacation.
I’m intending to sign up as a volunteer after our results come out. What about you? You said you’d giveus a surprise during H’s fan meeting. Tell me what the surprise is! I’m dying to know.” Despite keeping
mum about the secret, Elise couldn’t help but tease, “I already told you it’s a surprise. You’ll replace out in aday’s time!” Upon hearing that, Mikayla pouted unhappily. “You’re being awfully mean, Elise, but themore secretive you are, the more I look forward to what you have to show me.” “Ha! Keep your eyesopen, then. I won’t let you down!”
And so, the two girls conversed as they walked and finally reached the school gates. The moment theystepped outside, Elise noticed Jamie’s car idling by the roadside. “I have something else to do, Mikayla,so I’ll have to go now.” “Of course!” Mikayla then waved goodbye to her. “Do your thing. I can go backby myself.” And so, they parted, with Elise heading straight for Jamie’s vehicle before opening the doorand climbing in. As she noticed the scene, Mikayla couldn’t help wondering when the Griffith Familyhad newly purchased such a low-end car.
Meanwhile, Elise got right into the passenger’s seat. “The sponsors have arranged for a meal and wantto meet you for dinner this evening, Boss. I accepted their offer on your behalf since they’re covering allof our expenses for this activity. Are you okay with that?” Since it was only a dinner, Elise agreedwithout thinking too much about it. “Sure, but I need to change my makeup. I think I should put on myfavorite cowgirl look and take my current makeup off.” At that, Jamie couldn’t help laughing. “I’mstarting to get used to your ugly makeup, Boss.
I would’ve forgotten what you originally looked like if you hadn’t brought it up.” “That’s dramatic,” Elisecommented wryly as she stripped off her makeup. In response, he merely smiled before glancing at herclear face once she finished taking her makeup off. “You’re so pretty,” Jamie complimented. “Muchmore gorgeous than the other female celebrities.” “Yeah, yeah, keep sucking up to me. Did you bringme an outfit?” He gestured at the backseat in response. “I have it prepared. I even brought along abaseball cap so that you can avoid the reporters.
After all, the paparazzi will be coming after you once you resume H’s identity.” Reaching into thebackseat, Elise felt for the cap that he was talking about and stuck it onto her head without hesitation.“Not bad. I have to say, you’re becoming more thorough.” Upon hearing that, Jamie pointed out
somewhat smugly, “How could I not improve after all the time I’ve spent working for you?” With that, hesped up and zoomed off into the evening.
The dinner that the organizers arranged was to take place at a very private restaurant, where onlythose who had a membership would be allowed to enter and spend their money. “We’re in Room 66.Go on in, Boss. I’ll replace somewhere to park.” And so, Elise opened the door and hopped out of the car,thereafter heading to the entrance where an attendant led her to Room 66. “Here’s your room, miss,”the attendant told her politely as he opened the door for her.
“Thank you,” she said as she began stepping in. However, she suddenly faltered, stunned at thefamiliar presence in the room. A very familiar presence, in fact. “Why are you lingering in the doorway,Boss?” Jamie’s startled voice rang out from behind her, only for him to also freeze to the spot once hereached her side. Instinctively, he went to step in front of her, but Elise had already changed hermakeup, and the first thing Alexander Griffith did upon seeing her was to reflexively blurt, “Miss JoySinclair?” Only then did Elise come to her senses and realize that Alexander had seen this face before.
That was while she was dressed up as Joy Sinclair. Regardless, it was odd that he was here,considering this dinner was organized by the sponsors. Upon hearing Alexander address Elise as ‘MissJoy Sinclair’, Jamie let out a sigh of relief and stepped forward to say, “Have you met H before,President Griffith? What a coincidence!” Of course, Alexander was somewhat surprised to replace out thathis acquaintance, Joy Sinclair, was the legendary H. Not to mention that she was accompanied byJamie, who also seemed to have a special relationship with Elise.
“So, you’re the legendary H. I’ve been waiting to meet you for a long time!” Alexander said as hereached out to shake her hand. Cordially, Elise returned his handshake, but a familiar feeling surged upwithin Alexander as their palms connected. He couldn’t help glancing at her for a moment longer beforetaking back his hand. At this point, Rudolph Driscoll, the manager for the event, stepped forward to
explain, “Young Master Alex is our biggest sponsor for this activity, President Keller. Ninety percent ofour sponsorship fees are covered by the Griffith Group.
I heard we’re being given such a large sum only because Young Master Alex is a fan of H!” So, that’sthe reason! “Thank you for your support of H, Mr. Griffith!” Jamie hurriedly said. Catching the hint, Elisealso added, “Thank you!” In a mildly detached tone, Alexander answered, “No worries. Your reputationin the industry precedes you, Miss H. Even if I wasn’t a fan of your work, I’m still a businessman.” “It’snot just Young Master Alex, either.
There are many other businesses that have responded favorably to your sudden fan meeting, Miss H,and have fought to make a contribution to express their support for you,” Rudolph added eagerly.“Please, have a seat while we chat.” With that, he pulled out the chair next to Alexander’s for her.However, Elise looked at Alexander and hesitated for a moment before walking up to the chair andsitting down. “Be careful, Boss. Don’t let your secret out,” Jamie reminded her in a whisper.
