Coolest Girl in Town

Alexander took Elise’s phone. Then, he reached out and pulled her into his embrace with one arm while he covered her hand with the other, warming her hand up.

“Cameron, step on it,” Alexander stated solemnly.

Elise leaned against his chest. She couldn’t describe the panic she was feeling. She had thought that she was already used to death, and she was also distant toward her family. And yet, now that this moment was actually here, all she could think of was all the various times Trevor had been nice to her.

There was the time when he brazenly avoided Faye and acknowledged her as his only younger sister, the time when he had summoned the courage to return to the company and fight for her status for her, how he had viewed Alexander as his nemesis, how he wanted to stay at her side forever to protect her, all those times when they chatted over meals, when he called her his sister, and when there had been a sense of camaraderie…

Elise vigorously shook her head. She forced herself not to think about them. As long as I’m indifferent to it all, I won’t be upset.

She kept repeating those words to herself. But when she finally reached the hospital and saw Trevor lying in the bed with his entire body bloodied, Elise still lost it.

“Claude! Where’s Claude?” Elise whipped herself around to find him, only to realize that Claude wasn’t here. “Danny, weren’t you watching him?!” she asked in a panic.

“I… I was with you all the whole time. That guy slipped away so quickly that I couldn’t keep up with him!”

Elise shook her head. “No way. Claude is one of mine. Bryce knows our movements like the back of his hand. It’s impossible for his men not to discover that one of us is missing…”

So, they had to be purposefully hiding the truth. Or, Claude had actually been kidnapped by Bryce’s men!

However, Elise didn’t get the chance to keep mulling this over; the heart monitor showed that Trevor’s heartbeat was getting weaker.

“Alexander!” Elise grabbed him as she said frantically, “I’ve used up all my needles. Find me some needles, quickly. Trevor can’t die. My brother can’t die!”
