Chapter 168,Coolest Girl in Town

After Elise said that, she went upstairs. Winter was approaching and it was rather chilly in the room upstairs, so she had to switch on the heater to warm up the room. The news that Alexander had sustained an injury when he had been in Tissote was well-hidden from the Griffith Family. He returned from Tissote a couple of days after that incident and immediately buried himself in work, so Elise didn’t see him for several days in a row, up until Thursday evening. When she had barely finished her dinner and was about to leave the dining table, she heard the sound of a car coming from outside.

 

Thereafter, the maid announced, “Young Master Alex has returned.” Upon hearing that, Elise subconsciously slowed down her footsteps as she waited for Alexander to enter the house. Pretending to run into him, she murmured, “You are back.” The weary look on Alexander’s face was rather obvious as he had been working tirelessly for the upcoming shareholders meeting. However, the moment he saw Elise, he felt as if the fatigue in his body seemed to have dissipated. In the end, he hummed in response. “Have you had your dinner?” “I’ve just eaten. How about you?”

He hummed again, but the maid chimed in from the side, “Young Master Alex, you didn’t inform us that you would be back for dinner, so we didn’t prepare enough food. I’m afraid you may have to wait for a while.” Upon hearing that, Alexander replied, “I’ll go upstairs to attend a meeting first, then. Call me when dinner is ready.” With that, he turned on his heel and walked up the spiral staircase, while the maid hurried into the kitchen to prepare dinner. Upon seeing that, Elise followed the maid to the kitchen. “Stella, let me help you.” “There’s no need for that, Miss Sinclair.

I’ll be fine on my own. Young Master Alex loves noodles, so I’ll make that for him.” Nevertheless, Elise insisted, “It’s not difficult to whip up some noodles, so let me help you with that. You have been busy for the whole day and you should take some rest.” Stella initially wanted to reject her kindness, but Elise’s enthusiasm reminded her of Jonah’s words, so she changed her mind and handed the task to Elise. “Do take your time, Miss Sinclair. Let me know if you need anything.” In the end, Stella left the kitchen. Thereafter, Elise looked at the ingredients in the refrigerator and took out a tomato and an egg.

I shall take my leave if there’s nothing else.” Alexander hummed in response and Elise exited the study. The next moment, Alexander was left all alone in the study. Looking at the bowl

Just leave the company matters to Alex.” Alexander, who had been quiet, raised his eyes and caught sight of Elise, who came from around the corner. “Good morning, Grandpa!” Elise greeted Jonah and the latter responded with a grin. “Ellie, quickly come over to have your breakfast. Follow me to the office later.” “Sure, Grandpa!” She then sat down. Meanwhile, Jack, who had finished his
