Coolest Girl in Town

“You’ve been preparing to die ever since I got together with Alexander. It’s been a while since then, but you still have enough energy to lecture people. Not bad.”

“Does it even matter to you if I died or not? Of course you’d want me to die. Once I do, you can continue causing harm to my son and the Griffiths, and no one else will stand against you. You’re just wishing for my death, aren’t you?!” Madeline narrowed her eyes, hatred burning in her gaze.

“Me? Causing harm to Alexander? What about you, then? You forced Alexander out of your home in order to separate us and fulfill your own whims. You didn’t spare him a penny, but now that you’re in trouble, you want to take everything he has so that you can fill in that stupidly huge hole in your family! People talk about give and take, but the Griffiths won’t give and only want to take! You’re like parasites living off Alexander, drinking his blood and feasting on his flesh. Look, you’re just taking advantage of his good nature so that you could bully him to death! Alexander is humane and can’t bear to mistreat you, but I’m different. I have no care about these things. If you bully my man, I’ll pay it back tenfold! Yes, I’ve said it. Alexander is the man I chose to love, so if anyone wants to take advantage of him, no one can stop me from making that person pay, not even Alexander himself!”

With that, she turned around to look at Alexander. She pretended to be acted all street thug-ish as she said half-jokingly, “From now onward, you don’t have to ease the tension between us anymore. Come with me, won’t you? I can guarantee that I won’t bully you the way they did.”

As Alexander gazed at her defiant face, he felt a spring breeze blow gently in his heart, dissipating the fog of troubles inside him. In all honesty, her words weren’t nicely phrased, but they had enough power to melt his ice-cold heart.

A loving look spread across his face as he smiled and reached out to ruffle her soft hair. He said ever so softly, “All right, I’ll step down and follow you all my life.”

Elise shook her head like a disobedient puppy, then suddenly thought of something and jumped up. She proceeded to wrap her arms around Alexander’s neck, turning into a sloth that clung tightly to its tree named Alexander.

“Come on, then, my new follower. Let’s go home.”

“As you wish.” Alexander chuckled a little, then turned around and carried her in his arms. It wasn’t until they got in the car that he finally let Elise down.

When Elise got into the car, she had also calmed down. A red tint spread across her cheeks as she remembered her bold actions just moments ago. When Alexander got in his own seat, she averted her gaze shyly.
