Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 58

Elise flashed a smile and said, “I‘m Elise.”

Samantha gaped at her in astonishment. “Wait, you‘re Elise?”

Elise nodded. “In the flesh.”

For a moment, Samantha could not recover from her daze. She thought about what Elise had said to Amanda minutes ago, and only then did all the pieces click. “That explains why you put Amanda down the way you did; if someone was badmouthing me to my face, I‘d have slapped them!”

Seeing how serious Samantha was amused Elise. She liked that Samantha was not the stereotypically aloof heiress that one might expect, but she gave off the impression that she was kind and approachable instead.

“By the way, Elise, I heard that Zachary Newman is here at the boot camp, too. Having the both of you here is like waiting for a legendary showdown to happen! I can’t wait to see which of you will emerge victorious at the end of the boot camp!”

Daily new chapters in www.novelheart.com  This was the second time Zachary’s name was brought up in Elise‘s presence. She figured he must be some kind of math whiz for everyone to praise him behind his back.

Presently, Elise and Samantha came to a stop at the classroom doorway, whereupon they saw that the room was filled to the brim with other boot camp participants. Their arrival instantly caught the room‘s attention, though everyone’s gazes lingered on Samantha the longest. After all, it was hard for a fine–looking girl like her to keep from standing out in a crowd.

“Excuse me,” one of the boys piped up boldly, addressing Samantha. “You can sit next to me if you‘d like.”

However, his invitation was swiftly rebuffed when Samantha, having taken one glance at the vacant seat next to him, said apologetically, “Sorry, but I‘m going to sit with my friend.”

With that, she pulled Elise over to the last row of seats and declared, “Let‘s sit here, Elise.”

 Bolton passed the exercises down each row, and silence filled the room as everyone set themselves to work. When Elise got her papers,
