Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander)
Chapter 49

Chapter 49

"What are you doing, Alexander? Let go of me.” Elise struggled in embarrassment. If it weren't forthe darkness, everyone could see her cheeks that had become as red as tomatoes.

Alexander frowned and asked, “Didn't you say your leg hurts?”

Elise replied, “But I can walk.”

“It's not a problem for me. The road is slippery in the dark, so I don't want you to fall again. It's not along way, anyway.”

Since Alexander said so, Elise had to swallow her words and obediently stayed in his arms. She lethim carry her over to a boulder, where he squatted down to check her injuries. “Luckily, they are justsome superficial injuries. You'll be fine after putting on a little medicine back home.”

"Oh, thank you, Alexander.”

Alexander got up and instructed the subordinates behind him, saying, “Contact Danny and tell himto rendezvous at the foot of the mountain.”

"Yes, Young Master Griffith.”

Then Alexander looked at Elise and said, “I'll carry you down.”

He was not asking Elise’s opinion but rather only informing her, but Elise hastily refused. “No needfor that. I can walk by myself.”

However, Alexander did not give her a chance to refuse. Instead, he squatted down in front of her.Elise hesitated for a moment before climbing on Alexander's back. Then, Alexander carried herdown the mountain. It was the first time she was carried by a man like this, so a strange feelingsurfaced in her heart, as if she was a deer caught in the headlights.

Elise, what are you thinking? Retract those thoughts of yours!

Chiding herself in her heart, Elise allowed Alexander to carry her along the

mountain path all the way to the bottom of the mountain. Soon, he safely brought her back to theGriffith Residence, where Elise’s accident had already alarmed Jonah. Fortunately, Elise had alreadybeen found, but the elderly man had been waiting in the hall all this time until Elise returned.

“Ellie, you are back. How are you? Nothing serious, right?” Jonah asked with concern as soon as hesaw Elise.

“Grandpa Griffith, I'm fine! All thanks to Alexander.”

Jonah's eyes darkened. “Who is it that's brave enough to mess with one of the Griffiths?! Alex, youmust replace out for me. This matter will not be tolerated.”

"Yes, Grandpa. I will have someone look into it,” Alexander said with a serious face.

“Well, you have worked hard today, so go back to rest early,” Jonah said and looked at Elise. “Ellie,sorry that you've been frightened by all this, but don't you worry. I will definitely get you justice.”“Thank you, Grandpa Griffith!” Initially, Elise did not want the Griffith Family to interfere.

This is my own issue after all. But! No matter who they are, I will not let them go! Never in a millionyears!

After Elise returned to her room and locked the door behind her, she contacted Jamie.

“Boss, are you okay?’

"Yes, do me a favor. Elise slowly typed out a few lines and sent them, then finally

closed her computer. As she did so, the corners of her mouth raised up, accompanied by an aura ofdanger.

The next day, Elise took time off and did not go to school. Jasmine looked at the empty seat andcouldn't help smirking in satisfaction. Without a doubt, her mood was much better now.

Haha! I bet that woman is locked up in a hut on some mountain right now!

When the Chinese Week's public speaking competition was over, she would get

someone to release Elise. By then, the outcome would have been decided, and even with the bestabilities, Elise could not change anything.

However, Jasmine did not notice that in addition to Elise’s absence from school, there was anotherperson who also did not arrivé.

“Be honest with me, and I might be able to give you a chance.” Rita was accosted as soon as she lefther house. She didn’t expect to see Elise, the girl she didn't want to see the most, appearing right atthis moment. Elise’s voice was flat but dangerous, and for a moment, Rita was so surprised that shecould not even say a word.

Elise looked at her with a dark face. "What? Are you very surprised to see me?”

Rita nodded, then shook her head. Finally, she dropped to her knees in front of Elise out of fear. “I'msorry! I was wrong, and I should not have listened to Jasmine to do that to you..."

In the next few minutes, Rita immediately gave a complete account of all that had happened.“Jasmine said that she only wanted to lock you up there and not harm you. She only wanted toteach you a lesson and release you after two days. I was blinded by the money she offered andagreed. Please, let me go. We're classmates, after all.” Rita's voice broke as she spoke in tears. If shehad known that Elise was so capable, she would never have done the dirty work for Jasmine.

“I can let you go, but you have to do something for me.”

Rita looked as if she had found a life-saving chance and hastily asked, “What is it? As long as you letme go, I will do anything.”

So, Elise leaned forward and whispered something in her ear.

In the afternoon, Rita went to school as usual, and the first thing she did when she arrived at schoolwas to return the bracelet Jasmine gave her. “Jasmine, this bracelet is too worthless. It's not worthmy effort!”

Jasmine looked at the bracelet with some surprise and raised her eyes to look at Rita coldly. “What'swrong? You think it's too cheap? This is the bracelet my father spent tens of thousands abroad tobuy for me, and now it can be worth a lot of money, even in antique stores, right?”

Without answering Jasmine’s question, Rita coldly snorted. “I have done such a difficult task for you,but you only give such a little thing to me. Are you serious? I don't care; you have to give me moremoney. Otherwise, I will tell the whole world about what you did.”

Jasmine did not expect Rita to threaten her with this matter, so she silently clenched her fists, “Rita,I've never expected you to actually do this to me. You're so good at pretensions before.”

"Oh, just say whether you'll give it to me or not! I want 100,000, and it must be given to me withintoday, or..."

Rita was blunt enough she just wanted money. If it were before, Jasmine would not care about suchlittle money as 100,000, but now, her family had suffered a major change, and her father had givenher much less pocket money. Therefore, she now relied on selling bags and jewelry to maintain herluxurious life.

Where can I get 100,000 for Rita? "I don’t have that much money.”

As expected, Rita didn’t buy her excuse. “Who are you kidding?! Everyone in the class knows thatyou have hundreds of thousands of pocket money a month. I just want 100,000; it's not too much. Ifyou honestly do not want to give it to me, it doesn't matter. What's the big deal? I'll just go to thepolice to tell them everything, and I suppose you'll just end up in prison.”

“You b*tch!” Jasmine was furious, but now that Rita was blackmailing her, she had no choice but togrit her teeth. “Okay. 100,000, right? I can give it to you, but how do you guarantee you won't comeafter me after taking this money?”
