Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) -
Chapter 847
Chapter 847 Confession
In the end, Narissa brought the kids out. Entering a high end dessert shop, they ordered everythingon the menu. She only breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Alexia immersing herself in the taste ofthe desserts. “Lexi, I treat you great, don't 1?”
“Yup! I love you the most, Godmother!” Alexia did not even look up as she scooped a spoonful ofthe dessert and handed it to Narissa. “Have some too!"
“Can you keep the secret for me now?” Narissa finally stated what was on her mind.
“Now? I can.” Alexia was a sly child. Now that she was being treated to something delicious,everything was on the table. Yet, nobody knew what would happen after the meal.
Narissa was very satisfied to hear this, so she turned and smiled at Irvin. Before she could sayanything, Irvin already knew her thoughts. “Don’t think you can bribe me with just this.”
"You rascal. Knowing what's on my mind even without looking at me?” Despite feeling somewhatdefeated, Narissa peered at him. “Say it. What do you want?”
"What I want is very expensive, though,” Irvin stated while typing on his tablet.
“That's funny. Do you see this?" Narissa slapped her purse. “I'm loaded. You really think I can't affordwhat a child like you wants?”
Irvin kept his tablet away and smiled slyly. “Remember what you said...” he recited in a cheerful tune.Suddenly, Narissa felt chills on her back as a bad premonition crossed her mind.
Half an hour later, the trio exited the shop with a literal bag of cake in their hands before heading toa boutique computer mall. Under Irvin's guide, they headed straight to a computer located in themiddle of the hall.
This computer was displayed in a window case and free from the discounted price tags that theother computers had. The only thing there lay was the gadget and a couple of queue standssectioning the area.
“This is it.” There was a hint of excitement in Irvin's usually stoic expression. “This is the newestcomputer system to come out of Diajan. With a chassis crafted from titanium, the net weight isunder five hundred grams. It houses a four dimensional wireless sensor and boasts insane operatingspeeds. It's... almost perfect.”
“You sure know a lot.” Narissa did not think too deeply into it as kids often liked the newesttechnology. However, she hesitated upon seeing the price tag. “It is a bit steep...”
“That's why I said you can never buy me over, Godmother.” Irvin acted as if he had predicted this."What kind of expression is that?” Narissa felt like she was challenged. “It's not like I'm not willing tospend the money. It's six million. If I do buy it, how will I explain it to your mommy? It'll give her theshock of her life.”
From Narissa’s knowledge of Anastasia’s wealth, even though she was already financiallyindependent, she was not that rich to the extent where she could spend six million on a toy.Naturally, money was of no issue to Narissa, but she was afraid of it being over Anastasia’s usualconsumption, thus leading to her spoiling someone else's child.
“Forget about it, then. I've almost saved up the required amount anyway. I think I'll have a nice longchat with my godfather when we get back,” Irvin purposefully said this while turning around,wanting to leave.
The moment Narissa heard that he was going to talk to Jamie, she panicked as she grabbed ontothe child's clothes. “You brat. Why are you walking away? It's not like I'm not going to buy it!"
“I'm not forcing you to.” Irvin smirked.
"Yes, yes, I'm buying this for you because I want to.”
Feeling her heart break, Narissa took out a black card and handed it to the salesperson. “We'll betaking the computer. Use this card.”
"Of course, Miss. Please wait here while we wrap it up for you.”
“Thank you, Godmother.” Irvin did not forget his manners.
“Your way of thanking me sure is expensive. Remember to ask for your mother's permission beforetinkering with it, you hear me?” Narissa tried to salvage what was left of her dignity.
Yet, Irvin only interrupted her, “You're a scaredy cat, Godmother!”
Just as Narissa lowered her head, Alexia looked up and burped.
Finding this amusing, she reached out and wiped the cream from the corner of Alexia’s mouth. “Youbrat. You're talking bad about me right after I treated you to some cake. It's not right for you toforget about gratitude, you know?”
“Nope. Lexi's right. Back at Mesdra, whenever there was a student that had a crush on someone elsein her kindergarten, they would confess no matter what! Even if they succeeded or failed, they stillexpressed their feelings. Yet, you don't dare to voice your thoughts out despite being an adult,Godmother. How shameful!”
Stunned, Narissa froze up upon hearing this.
She was also once an individual that broke the norm to pursue what she wanted. Yet now, she wasless than a child.
Didn't I escape from my family just to replace love? Now that I've confirmed my feelings, why am I stilltip-toeing around like this?
At that moment, Narissa, who looked at Irvin with bright eyes, came to a conclusion in her heart.The trio took a cab back to the Whites with Elise sending Jamie out. Closing the door, Narissa wentup to him with a fierce gaze.
Jamie, who knew that something bad was about to go down, was prepared to run. “You don't haveto send me off any further, Elise. Let's chat on WhatsApp later!”
He started to run upon saying that. “Stop right there, Jamie Keller!” Narissa shouted at him, makinghim stop. Although he did not run anymore, he did not turn around either. “What do you wantnow?"
Narissa looked at Elise with an awkward gaze before mustering her courage. Walking up to Jamie,she hesitated for quite a while before finally squeezing out the words. “Can you turn around?”
She wanted to be a little more gentle, but she could not control herself. Helplessly, Jamie turnedaround. “Now that I've turned around, what more orders do you have?”
Although the two had always communicated in such an unserious way, Narissa still hesitated uponseeing how aloof he was being.
Lowering her head, she could not bring herself to say it as she turned to Elise and her children in theend, seeking for help.
“You can do it, Godmother!" Alexia shouted.
“Say it!” Mimi raised her arms weakly, cheering her on.
Guessing what was happening, Elise looked at Narissa with an encouraging gaze and nodded,hinting that she should act on it.
Narissa, who got the support she needed, breathed in deeply and decided to face the issue byfacing Jamie head on. “Did you feel anything from the kiss yesterday?”
"And here I thought something happened.” Jamie felt a bit more relaxed now. “Did you kiss me topiss Jayden off? It's not my first time being used in this way. As friends, I can accept being sacrificedlike this for your future happiness. No more of that, though.”
“You really can't tell at all?” Narissa clenched her fists nervously.
“I can. I can tell that Jayden likes you very much. You'll be a happy couple.”
“That'll be up to me.”
Suddenly, the conversation fell into a dead end again.
“Okay. I was wrong. Is that fine now? No matter what you choose, I will support you.” For somereason, Jamie conceded.
“Do you swear by it?”
"I swear.”
“Then, I chose to be your girlfriend.”
