Chapter 7,Coolest Girl in Town

Actually, Ashlyn didn’t complete her studies. It was just that the Lawsons spent a lot of money to get her a college degree. The Lawsons and the Griffiths were old family friends. Not only did Ashlyn grow up loving Alexander, but she had been brought up by the Lawsons as the future Mrs. Griffith ever since she was a child. She didn’t expect Elise to pop up from nowhere. What entitles this ugly country bumpkin to choose one of the Griffith Family’s five sons to be her fiancé? Ashlyn’s face darkened slightly.

Elise Sinclair, huh? How’s such an ugly woman qualified to stand beside Alexander, Ashlyn?” said Katie Moss, Ashlyn’s cousin. At Jonah’s request, Alexander stayed with Elise after arriving at the party, and the pair drew a lot of attention as they stood together. Ashlyn looked somewhat displeased. She’s right.
