Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 19

Jack stiffened for a moment before quickly getting the security guard to seize the phony reporter. He frowned as he looked at her bleeding wound, “How are you feeling?”

Elise smiled, “You should take care of your fans first.”

Jack nodded and signaled his manager by giving him a look.

“Sorry, but today’s meet and greet is canceled. See you all another time.”

The fans screeched and shrieked. Jack’s manager simply got the security to surround them.

Jack then helped Elise to the dressing room,

Smack! A sheaf of papers was thrown onto one of the tables in the dressing room. Papers scattered haphazardly

across the surface, having been dislodged from its neatly arranged pile.

The manager felt dread coursing through his body. “We‘ve investigated things thoroughly: your antis are behind this.”

Jack was livid. “And you call yourself a manager? Allowing people to smuggle a knife to a meet and greet?”

“My apologies. I didn‘t go through the fans‘ belongings thoroughly thinking they were just props.” The manager

was filled with remorse.

Alexander looked at the injured Elise from where he sat. His heart felt tight, as though some invisible rope had

bound it up. With each step he took toward her, that rope tightened its grip on him.

“Enough. I‘m going to send her to the hospital now. You handle whatever you need to do properly.” An undercurrent of fury peeked through Alexander‘s frigid tone. With that, he bent down, scooping Elise into his arms before he left the dressing room.

The manager only dared to speak again once Alexander had left. He handed a cell phone to Jack.

After the meet and greet had been canceled, Elise‘s name became trending due to the obsessed frenzy of the fans. Slurs and allegations were hurled at her all across the internet.

‘You can tell with one look that that woman‘s in league with that perpetrator. She failed at being a stan, so she did

this instead to garner sympathy.”

‘She‘s a master alright!

The manager weighed the situation. “How about I get a good PR agent to make an announcement?”

“You don‘t have to.” Jack said as he quickly typed up a Tweet and posted it.
