Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander)
Chapter 892

Chapter 892 Perfection is Her Flaw

Irvin nodded before turning to look at Alexia. Elise glanced at her daughter for a while beforeraising her hand to swear an oath once more. “The same goes for Alexia, too!”

“Yep!” Alexia held her hand up half-heartedly before she tottered over to hold Irvin's face and kisshim. “You can't be angry after I've kissed you, Irvin. An angry boy is a naughty boy.”

Irvin shook his head before heading upstairs. “I can't deal with you two!” With his hands behind hisback and a slightly hunched posture, he walked up the stairs the way an old man would. Both Eliseand Alexia chuckled at the sight of this. After Elise was done laughing, she came up with a new idea.Since we can't disturb Irvin anymore... “Why don't we pay Daddy a visit, Alexia?"

“Are you talking about Mr. Griffith? Did he agree to be our daddy?” Alexia grabbed her mother'sarm in excitement. “Yeah, he did.” Elise beamed. “But you're only allowed to call him Daddy when noone else is around. When there are other people in the room, you have to call him Mr. Griffith. Thisis our little secret, okay?”

“ got it!" Alexia spun around excitedly. “Yay, I've found the best father in the world!”

It was late at night when Elise and Alexia came out of the elevator at Smith Co.'s headquarters. Elisehad prepared some food for Alexander, and she held her daughter's hand as they walked over tothe president's office. It was past working hours, so Alexander's assistants had gotten off work, andall the lights had been turned off except the ones that lit up the walkway. When they arrived at theoffice, they saw Alexander working through the glass window.

The dim lights in the office shone down on a corner of the office table, and Alexander's sharpfeatures were further enhanced by the shadows. He looked especially elegant and classy as hefocused on his work, and he even seemed rather sexy because of his messy fringe. Men always lookthe coolest when they're being all serious, Elise thought to herself.

"He's so handsome!” Elise snapped back into reality when she heard Alexia's excited cries. “Shh!”Elise held her finger to her lips before she pulled her phone out and placed her packed meal aside.She lifted Alexia in her arm before she adjusted her front camera angle so that she could take aselfie with Alexander, who was hard at work, in the background. However, she forgot to keep herphone silent, and Alexander was immediately alerted when he heard the sound of the shutter.“Who's there?" he asked.

“It's me!" Elise replied before she walked into the room with her food in one hand while holdingAlexia's hand with the other. Alexander couldn't hide the excitement on his face the moment he sawthem. He left his desk and walked over to greet them. “What are you guys doing here?”

Elise shut the door behind her before she presented the meal that she had prepared. “I'm here todeliver some homemade supper, Mr. Griffith.” The moment the door was shut, Alexia let go of Elise’shand before running over to the man. “Daddy!”

Alexander felt as if he were on cloud nine when he heard Alexia’s sweet voice and felt her warm andtight hug against him. He felt as if his heart had melted, and he couldn't help but curl his lips into ahuge smile as he held Alexia up in the air. “Hey, Lexi. Tell me, who taught you to call me by thatname?”

“I've wanted to do it for a long time!” she claimed proudly. “Don’t worry, Daddy. This is our littlesecret, and I won't tell anyone else about it. I'll only tell Irvin! Hehe.” Alexander ruffled the girl's fluffyhair. He felt a surge of emotions running through him when he finally heard the young girl call himher father. “You're such a good girl, Lexi.”

She pressed her head into the man’s palm and rubbed against his hand as if she were a kitten. Nowthat Mr. Griffith is my daddy, it feels rather different even as he’s patting me on the head. Alexandercouldn't help but feel sorry when he saw the loving look on his daughter's face. “It's really late. Youguys shouldn't be out. It's dangerous,” he uttered.

"Well, we didn't have a choice. Your son thought we were being too loud, so we had no choice butto switch our focus to someone else. Hey, you're not going to chase us out too, are you?” Eliseuttered as she feigned anger.

“I couldn't bear to do such a thing even if I had the guts to,” he replied in a sweet tone. Elisebeamed at him before she turned to look at the drafts that were on his desk. She held them up inpuzzlement. “Why do you have all these clothing designs?” Smith Co. was a finance andmanagement company—there was no reason for its boss to have all these designs on his desk.

“I'm trying to design outfits on my own,” Alexander replied honestly.

"Why have you never told me that you know how to do that?” she asked curiously.

“Well, I only started learning a few years ago. Why don’t you give me some comments, master?” heteased.

“Well, it doesn’t look too bad. It looks a little like something I would design. Wait... This is mydesign, isn't it?” Elise seemed to have realized something, but she wasn't entirely sure.

"Don't question yourself. This is your design. I simply modified it.” Then, Alexander told her all abouthow Brendan had been forced to imitate her work

After explaining Brendan's situation, he told Elise about his plan. “So, I'm planning to stick to thearrangement. I figured that I could give them a taste of their own medicine. These are all the designdrafts that you left in SK Group, and I figured that I'd be able to use them after modifying them alittle. I can't wait to see the look on Wendy's face when these designs are presented on stage.”

Elise thought for a moment before an idea popped up in her mind. She picked up a pencil on thedesk before she started making some changes to the draft. “This sounds like a huge surprise. Whydon't you let me be a part of this?” Alexander didn't stop her. He simply brought Alexia to thecouch, where he feasted on all of the food that Elise had prepared.

By the time he was done with his meal, Elise had already completed her first draft. “What do youthink?” She handed the draft over to Alexander. “You're one of the globally-recognized designersfor a reason. I can't believe how gorgeous this looks now that you've modified your design from tenyears ago.” Alexander offered all his generous praise before he spoke in a slightly meeker voice.“But... I'm afraid your identity would be exposed if the design is too perfect.”

"Hmm, I guess you're right.” Elise didn't feel offended by his words. Instead, she glanced at Alexiabefore urging her to come over. “Come to Mommy, Lexi!"

“Oh! I'm coming!” Alexia tottered over and jumped into Elise’s arms. “What is it, Mommy?”

Elise showed Alexia the design that she had just made. “You're the best, Lexi. Why don't you helpme take a look at this design? This dress seems a little plain. What should we add to make it lookbetter?”

"Hmm..." Alexia dragged her long hum for a while before she noticed the picture of a bunny on thewrapper of some candy she had just eaten. She came to a conclusion immediately. “You can add abunny! You can add it on the chest, the way the school adds its logo on my uniform!”

“A large bunny, huh? Okay!” Elise agreed to this suggestion without any hesitation.

About three days later, the Whitney and Griffith Families had arranged for a meeting. They wantedto plan Danny and Ariel's wedding. Adam and Madeline arrived nearly half an hour earlier in anattempt to show their sincerity. They were worried that Danny would never get himself a wife, soMadeline persistently questioned Ariel during their meeting.

"What does your family do, Ariel? Should we prepare more gifts for our in-laws? Would it be moreformal for you guys to try things out at home? Does your family have any superstitions? You needto tell me about them if there are any! You can tell Adam and me if you have any requests. Youdon't have to be shy with us! We don't need much—all we need is to have a daughter-in-law as niceas you!" Madeline uttered, leaving the others rather speechless.
