Chapter 316 The Masked Man,Coolest Girl in Town
Laura let out a sigh with a doleful look. “Let’s send more people out and throw money at it. Otherwise,Elise will be left alone when we die.” Ever since she and Robin took Elise back from the orphanage andkept her around them, they had been treating her as their own granddaughter. If it weren’t for thepresent reality, they really wanted to keep it a secret and keep Elise by their side. However, their liveswere finite. Robin replied, “I’ll have it arranged according to the situation. Sigh! Alexander’s a nice brat,but his mother’s lost her mind!” He subconsciously struck the ground with his stick.
When he recalled Madeline’s tone of voice when she had spoken to them the other day and theextreme lengths she had gone to, he was instantly filled with anger. Laura patted him on the back.“Alright, calm down now. Aren’t we going to teach her a lesson? We’ve got to let her know that theSinclairs aren’t a presence that she can look down on as she pleases!” “Okay.” Robin nodded andimmediately made a phone call. Meanwhile, Elise arrived at the party with Jessica. The party was afeast for the eyes as drinks flowed freely among the guests. However, Elise noticed that everyone atthe party was dressed in either a suit or an evening dress.
All the guests, male or female, were not only good-looking but also well-proportioned in stature. Isthis… She turned to look at Jessica in shock. Jessica let out a chuckle. She explained, “It’s amatchmaking party, but I was afraid that you wouldn’t come with me if I told you about it. Why don’t youjust grab a handsome guy and take a picture with him to tell your boyfriend to give up?” Elise wasrendered speechless. It was never necessary to end her relationship with Alexander in such a way, andbesides, she didn’t like such occasions either. “Jessica, it’s not that I want to make you look bad, but Ionly came with you because you said it was a party.
Well, I’ll be waiting for you outside,” she said, before turning around. She had barely made a few stepswhen Jessica grabbed her and said anxiously, “Elise, I swear that I didn’t mean anything else. I justdidn’t want you to forget that there are plenty of other fish in the sea. It’s okay if you don’t feel likeseeing someone else. Just help me check out my date then!” I’ll be in trouble if Elise leaves. That guyhas explicitly told me to bring Elise over. Otherwise, I’ll never get that fifty million! Elise hesitated for awhile before relenting. “…Okay.” Well, Jessica means well, and she’s even brought me over.
And besides, we used to be such good friends, so it’d be rude for me to turn around and leave rightnow, she thought. However, after the two ladies stood for a while, some people came over and chattedthem up, and some even directly asked for their WhatsApp contacts and phone numbers. As if thatwasn’t amazing enough, someone even flaunted his educational background, his property deeds, thekeys to his luxurious cars, and his credit cards, looking for a wife on the spot! To top things off, this guywas pretty handsome. Jessica couldn’t help but ridicule, “Does that guy even need to come looking fora wife when he’s so rich and good-looking? Is he out of his mind or something?”
Elise tacitly agreed with her words. After all, how could those rich and powerful men like him be short ofwomen around them? “Maybe,” she echoed. Just then, Jessica suddenly exclaimed, “Wow! Look,Elise! Look at that masked man!” Elise felt Jessica shaking her arm vigorously, so she could only followthe latter’s gaze… She saw a man dressed in a black suit, who was about six feet tall and wearing asilver mask. Holding a glass of red wine in his hand, he stood alone in a corner, looking mysterious andcharming in profile alone. However, Elise commented, “Perhaps he’s also an ugly man.”
If he isn’t, then why is he wearing a mask? What is he shy about now that he’s joining a matchmakingparty? Jessica didn’t agree with her, though. “Ugly? Elise, how could such a man be so attractive if heisn’t handsome in the first place?” Elise turned to look at Jessica in surprise. Is she taking a shine tohim? Jessica took Elise’s arm, confirming the latter’s suspicion. “Come on, Elise! Let’s go chat him up.”Jessica went up to the man without hesitation, and Elise had no choice but to follow her. She had toadmit that Jessica really had some nerve.
She took Elise’s hand and went straight up to the man wearing a silver mask, saying, “Can we haveyour contact number, gentleman? Either your phone number or your WhatsApp number’s fine. Ofcourse, it’ll be best if we can add you on WhatsApp.” For the first time in her life, Elise didn’t knowwhether to stand or leave as she stayed beside Jessica. The man nodded. “Sure. Add me then.”However, he signaled Elise to add his contact information instead. Elise was dumbfounded. It wasJessica who asked for the man’s contact information, and she never said a word from beginning to end.Why would the man think that it was her who wanted to have his contact information?
Just then, Jessica whispered in her ear, “Just add him first and forward his number to me later, Elise.It’s the same, anyway.” She even shook Elise’s arm while pleading with her. As a result, Elise had nochoice but to add the man on WhatsApp. “I’ve got something to deal with, so I’ve got to go. Let’s chatlater on WhatsApp,” the masked man said. Then, he turned around and left. Elise immediatelyforwarded the man’s WhatsApp number to Jessica, but the latter snatched her phone away. “Hey, don’tdelete his WhatsApp number so quickly. Do you think he’ll add me?
You didn’t tell him the situation, after all.” “Well then, I’ll make it clear to him,” Elise replied. I wonderwhat’s wrong with that guy’s mind. Why would he get the wrong idea that it was me who wanted hiscontact information? “We can’t make it clear to him right now. Let’s have some fun for a while and waitfor him to come to us.” Jessica giggled as she put Elise’s cell phone away. Not only that, but she evendragged Elise to the dance floor. The music was electrifying, plus Jessica was beside her, so it wasdifficult for Elise not to dance to the beat.
After dancing through a few songs, she got tired and found a place to sit down and rest. Jessicahanded her a glass of fruit juice. “How does that feel, huh? Do you feel much better now?” Elisenodded. Admittedly, she danced with all her heart to the rhythm of the music without thinking aboutanything else just now. Jessica then advised her, “Please don’t mind me talking too much, Elise. It’sjust that I’m more philosophical about things. Since there are so many obstacles between you two, then
you should stop thinking about this. You just saw how many men asked for your WhatsApp number,no?
You’re also a goddess in the eyes of others, so why humble yourself in front of others?” Undeniably, herwords made sense. I’ve never thought of humbling myself before anyone. It’s just that… Never mind,there’s no point in mentioning these anymore, thought Elise. “Let’s go.”
She stood up, wanting to go back since she was tired. However, before she could get to her feet, sheslumped heavily back onto the stool. Furthermore, she felt weak all over! “Jessica…” Her first instinctwas to call for Jessica, as she realized that something was wrong with the fruit juice she just drank.However, Jessica merely stood across from her while staring at her indifferently.
