Coolest Girl in Town

Alexander got home, only to find Elise sitting on the couch as she surfed her laptop in her pajamas.

Seeing that, he took off his jacket and lay down on her lap, effectively pushing the laptop away.

Elise began to massage his temple. "You reek of alcohol. Did you drink a lot today?"

Alexander responded in an exhausted tone, "I had a couple of drinks with Narissa's father since he seems pleasant to me."

Napoleon's demeanor when he was mocking Stenson was exactly the same as Narissa's.

"It's great that you can still get along with him despite the age difference. You have one more person to pour your heart out to in the future!" Elise seemed delighted for Alexander. She then looked at the wall-mounted clock and instantly let go of his hand as she urged, "Get up. I'll fill the bathtub for you. Take a quick bath and rest early."

"Wait!" Alexander stopped her as he grabbed her hand and put it against his cheek. "Honey, take off your mask," he said as he gazed at Elise with hazy eyes.

"I'll take it off when I go to bed," Elise coaxed him patiently.

"Can't you take it off now? I miss the real you. Just for a moment, hmm?"

Alexander's voice was hoarse and with his slightly sobbing tone, he sounded just like a baby pleading, which Elise found impossible to resist.

Hence, she took some effort and finally dropped her guise as Anastasia for the first time in seven years.

The moment the mask was removed, she instinctively raised her hand to cover the scar on her face.

Seeing that, Alexander moved her hand away and slowly brushed his fingers across her cheeks gently, feeling every inch of her skin.

When his fingertips touched the scar on her face, he became even more delicate, as if caressing a bubble that might suddenly explode.

At that, Elise lowered her head and asked softly, "It looks ugly, right?"

She was aware that the scar had greatly lightened from how it was before, but it was still noticeable as it covered a huge part of her face.
