Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 710 

Abby shook her head in despair as she cried, "It is useless.It is written in my father’s will that all the inheritance is to be handled by my stepmother before I come to age.She already came up with an excuse this time I came home that she lost all the money, and that she won't give me a penny!"

"This must have been hard on you."

Elise knew exactly how helpless it felt to not have someone to rely on.

Abby finally broke out in tears, either because she was moved, or because she felt helpless.

Feeling upset as she watched Abby, Elise turned to throw a glance at Alexander before she turned to look at Abby again.She then gently placed her hand over the back of Abby's palm.

"I won't turn a blind eye against this.You are my student, after all.That means I am your teacher for life.Go ahead and take a rest.I will bring you home to take back what is rightfully yours when you are feeling better."

"Miss Sinclair..."

Abby didn't know what to say despite how grateful she was, so she started to get up to give her teacher a respectful bow when Elise stopped her.

"Alright, alright.There's no need to do this for appearance’s sake."

Elise firmly pressed down on her.

"You better make sure you stay alive.I won't have a legitimate reason to help if you dic.All of the hardships you have to endure now would go to waste then."

"I understand," Abby replied as she sniffled.

"I will make sure I recover.You are my role model, Miss Sinclair.I am sure I will be able to stand on my own one day!"

"And I believe you will"

Elise lightly patted Abby on her arm as she added gently, "It is late now.Go ahead and sleep.Rest up!"

Elise seemed a little absent-minded after coming out of the hospital.

Noticing this, Alexander joked, "Weren't you just giving out advice like a proper adult earlier? Why are you the one being down in the dumps now?"

"I am not unhappy"

She looked up at the moon and let out a long sigh.

"I am just thinking that there are too many sufferings in this world.I'm a mess as well, but I can't seem to get used to watching people suffer."
