,Coolest Girl in Town
Alexander was about to say something, but Elise didn’t give him a chance to speak. “Do you seriously
think that you’re made of steel? How can you still work when you’re hurt like this? Go to the hospital!”
she instructed without any room for negotiation. Upon hearing this, he felt a sense of warmth in his
heart. He was not offended at all as he could sense the concern in her voice. Meanwhile, Cameron
held his breath.
Finally, Alexander said, “Let’s go to the hospital first.” Relieved, Cameron answered, “Yes, Mr. Griffith!
Please get into the car with Miss Sinclair.” After getting into the car, Alexander and Elise sat next to
each other as the car sped off toward the hospital. Sitting in the passenger seat, Cameron eyed the two
of them. Though the two did not say anything, Cameron could clearly feel that they were acting
differently compared to before.
However, he couldn’t point out exactly what was different. Hence, he didn’t put too much thought into it
and sent Alexander to the hospital. Alexander’s wounds were simply superficial, and he seemed to be
doing fine after the doctor treated them. “Remember to rest well, avoid direct contact with water, and
come back in time to get your dressings changed,” the doctor reminded as he prescribed Alexander
some medicine.
For the first time in forever, Alexander did not refute but conceded. As soon as Alexander came out of
the doctor’s office, Elise stood up from the chair immediately. “How did it go? Are you alright?” Tossing
her the medicine, he replied, “I’m fine. I just need to take my medicine and get my dressings changed
on time.” Hearing this, she sighed in relief. “Don’t go to the company today. Go home and have a good
rest.”
Immediately, this stopped him in his tracks and made him turn around to look at her. At that moment,
she couldn’t help but feel embarrassed to meet his glare. “W-Why are you staring at me like that?”
Softly, he questioned, “Why are you making decisions for me, Elise?” Stunned, she came back to her
senses after a few seconds. “I’m… I’m only doing this for your sake,” she stuttered as she tried to come
up with a good excuse. After acknowledging her, he told her, “There are still some matters I need to
settle back at the company. I’ll ask Cameron to send you home.”
However, she was unwilling to just leave it at that. “Look at your leg. Can’t you just stop working for a
while?” “Are you going to take care of me if I stop working?” He raised his eyebrows. She was
dumbfounded. Meanwhile, Cameron, who was listening, was also stupefied by such a weird
conversation.
“I… I…” she stammered, struggling to find the right words for a long time. In response, the corner of
Alexander’s mouth lifted as he smirked evilly when no one was looking. Then, Cameron interjected at
the right time. “Mr. Griffith, I think you should listen to Miss Sinclair. After all, she’s a major shareholder
of the Griffith Group. Besides, it wouldn’t be a problem for her to take care of you.” As soon as
Cameron said this, Alexander and Elise turned to give him a cold-eyed stare.
“What are you talking about?” Elise fumed. “I was simply going along with what you said, Miss Sinclair.
I’m only doing it for Mr. Griffith’s sake!” Understanding his double-edged remark, she thought that what
Cameron said made sense. Yet, she felt that something was wrong. Why do I need to take care of
Alexander? “Whatever. Do whatever you want.” She left at once after saying this, ignoring the
questions she had.
She had only suggested it out of concern anyway. She didn’t know that it would raise so many
questions. Watching as she left, Alexander couldn’t help but feel a little happy. He realized that she was
actually pretty adorable. “Cameron, is there anything urgent back at the company?” Cameron came
back to his senses and thought about it for a moment. Basically, there was nothing much to do except
for some trivial matters that the subordinates could handle even if Alexander was out of office.
“You can rest assured and take a break at home. You have us at the company!” Hearing this,
Alexander raised his brows lightly. “I’ll head back home since you said so. Take care of the company’s
matters.” Then, he patted Cameron’s shoulder and continued, “Do your best. I trust you. Whether or not
you get promoted to special assistant in the future depends on your performance.” Motivated by
Alexander’s encouragement, Cameron reassured him, “Don’t worry.
I’ll do my very best!” With that, Alexander acknowledged Cameron’s reply and limped after Elise. After
coming out of the hospital, Elise booked a taxi, which arrived soon after. Quickly, she opened the door
to get into the car. Just then, Alexander hurried into the car first. “What are you doing? Get out!”
Turning to look at her, he told her in a serious manner, “I want to go home too. It’s on the way.” “You…”
She wanted to say something, but he had moved in willingly to make space for her.
Biting her lip, she got into the car without saying anything. Then, the taxi driver started the car and
drove away slowly. Along the way, the radio played Jack’s song that was making a big hit online. It was
undeniable that his low and mellow voice gave away a magnetic feeling and seemed recognizable to
many listeners. Together with the beautiful lyrics, it was very pleasing to the ears. Alexander was also
fascinated by this song, mainly because of its melody and style, which were surprisingly similar to his
memory of H.
Though he was puzzled, he didn’t suspect anything. After all, Jack never bothered to plagiarize or
imitate anyone, so he figured it must be a coincidence. Moments later, the taxi driver parked his car at
the entrance of the Griffith Residence. As Elise and Alexander made their way out of the taxi, she had
intended to ignore him, but he stopped her all of a sudden. “Hold on!” “What?” she turned her head and
asked irritably.
Seeing the unfriendly look on her face, he replied immediately, “I can’t walk really well. Please help
me.” In truth, she wanted to reject him, but after giving it some thought, the reason why his leg was
injured was because he didn’t want to hurt her under those circumstances. That was quite admirable.
Thus, she walked toward him. “Take it easy. I’ll hold you.” He wasn’t kidding when he said he needed
her help; he leaned partially on her and limped toward the door.
The servants who saw this knowingly moved away and acted as if they didn’t see anything. A busybody
servant even reported seeing this to Jonah. Jonah’s face brightened up instantaneously as soon as he
heard this from the servant while he was watering the plants upstairs. “Really?
They were hugging each other when they came in?” It’s inaccurate to say that they were hugging, but
it’s true that Miss Sinclair and Mr. Griffith seemed close. Besides, he had his arms around her
shoulders. With that, it really looked like he was hugging her, the servant thought. So, the servant
nodded.
“Yes, sir. I think they’re dating.” Upon hearing this, he couldn’t hide the smile on his face. “I feel relieved
hearing you say that! Thank God! Things are finally going as expected. You did well. I’ll double your
bonus this month.” “Thank you, sir!” the servant uttered excitedly.
