Nathan wasn‘t interested in the insignificant domestic stock market since he was recently more involve
d in the international stock market, which had a capital flow of easily hundreds of millions.
However, now that the A had invited him, he had no reason to reject the offer,
so he replied: ‘It will be my honor.’
As soon as the message was sent, the other party immediately went offline.
For now, he just needed to wait for A to contact him again.
While rubbing his hands together with a smirk, Nathan stared at the chat box on his screen the entire
time as a flame of excitement slowly began to burn in his eyes.
He couldn‘t wait to see what kind of surprises A would bring.
On the other end, the moment Elise logged out of the software, she immediately began to update the c
omputer‘s system.
It had been 6 years since she used this laptop in which technology had already advanced tremendousl
y over the
years. Although some hackers these days would still find it hard to crack the firewall she installed 6 yea
rs ago, the system was no longer a match against the top hackers in the world. For her to be well hidde
n from the Internet in today‘s technological world, her computer would need an upgrade.
After all, for A to resurface once again, it would be a big deal for many people.
After everything was settled, Elise returned
her computer back to where it belonged and prepared to head out to purchase some necessities for Je
anie.
As she was leaving, she realized that Alexander‘s car was still parked outside.
Al the moment, he seemed to be focused on something while he sat inside the car. The sunlight that ref
lected off the car made it difficult to see what was going on inside, but she was still able to see his chis
eled jawline. He still looks as charming and gentle as ever:
Elise was stunned for a moment as she thought that he would leave immediately after sending them he
re.
Then, she walked toward him and knocked on the window of the passenger seat,
When Alexander heard the sound and saw that it was Elise, he smirked subconsciously while setting as
ide the tablet in his hands and rolled down the window. “Are you going out? Do I
have the honor to be your driver for the day?”
She knew that he
was busier than the average person since the entire Griffith Group had rested on his shoulders and he
sometimes wouldn‘t even have the time to eat, so she didn‘t want to waste too much of his time.
“I‘m just going to the nearby supermarket to buy something. I can just walk there, so you
don‘t have to drive me. You should go back to your company first,” she responded faintly.
However, Alexander didn‘t give her an answer. Instead, he unfastened
his seatbelt and went out of the vehicle to open the door for her like a gentleman. “I can go to the comp
any any time, but I can‘t meet my fiancee all the time. Can‘t you allow me to be şelfish for one time?
Elise had no other choice, so she nodded her head and entered his car.
There weren‘t a lot of people at the supermarket, but when they appeared together, they attracted a lot
of attention.
As she passed by the drug store in the mall, she noticed the bottle of cold medicine that the Sinclair Fa
mily always had when she was a kid was on sale, so she went over and picked it up to have a look. Aft
er all these years, the price and packaging still remain as cheap as ever.
Then, the
promoter approached her and introduced, “Miss, the one you‘re holding now is a freebie. You can colle
ct it after you purchase any product from Olson Pharmaceuticals.”
“A freebie?” She pointed at the cold medicine in her hand.
“Yes.” The promoter smiled and nodded.
Without saying anything, Elise returned the bottle of medicine back to the shelves. “Thank you.”
Before leaving, she took a quick glance at the medical products from Olson Pharmaceuticals. They wer
e all placed at the front and it stood out from the others. Suddenly, a hint of coldness flashed through h
er beautiful eyes, which was enough to make anyone‘s heart sink.
Although she was able to hide her expression well, she wasn‘t able to escape
Alexander‘s eagle eyes as he captured her little reaction.
Soon after, he casually mentioned Frazier Pharmaceuticals‘ current situation. “The Olson Pharmaceutic
als has been in rapid development in recent years to a point where all
their rivals are now in trouble. I would say that Frazier Pharmaceuticals is impressive enough to survive
until now despite being one of their rivals.”
“That doesn‘t sound like a compliment.” Elise picked up a soft towel and placed it into the cart.
Alexander chuckled and calmly continued, “The Fraziers are lacking in management, so it makes sens
e that they are being taken advantage of. After all, the market would be more accepting toward new ide
as.”
As she listened to him, she stopped in her tracks and listed her head to look at him with her cold yet stu
bborn eyes. “From my point of view, there‘s a sense of belonging only when working on new ideas with
old components. If everything is new, there will be no sentiments. What do you think?”
He lowered his gaze and noticed that under the lights, her skin was particularly fair while her irises in th
e color of merlot slickered delicately under her narrow eyelashes.
As he couldn‘t control himself, he took a deep breath to calm himself down, but a smirk still escaped fro
m his lips. “Are you talking about the people or the medicine?”
Elise immediately understood the meaning behind his words and quickly dodged his burning eyes befor
e pretending to casually walk forward while saying, “I‘m talking about both. Like what you just said, the
Fraziers‘ problem is their management but not their products. I think that ethical companies like them ar
e better than those who only focus on building fancy brands for their company.”
Alexander followed her with a laugh. “I agree, so let‘s hope there‘s a savior who can help the Fraziers o
ut.”
“There will be,” Elise murmured in such a soft tone that no one other than herself caught it.
Over at the cashier, her phone rang just as she was about to make the payment, so she had to move as
the call.
Therefore, he took out his phone to pay instead before standing aside to wait for their purchased items t
“Professor Merlin, is there anything I can help you with?” Elise spoke into her phone.
“Elise, please tell me the truth. Did you really solve those questions yourself?” Professor Merlin asked in
“Yes,” she answered with confidence.
“Come to my office. Do you still remember where it is?”
A polite Elise answered, “I do.”
“You must come now. We‘ll be waiting here for you,” he said firmly before ending the call.
After hearing Professor Merlin speaking to her in such a stern and rushed tone, she was confused, espe
who else is there?
Elise had a bad feeling about what was about to happen, as if a storm was coming.
Then, Alexander collected
the bags and saw her zoning out with her phone in her hand, so he approached her and asked with con
She snapped out of her daze and shook her head. “It was from the school. They want to see me right no
“Alright. I‘ll send you there.”
She didn‘t dare to refuse Professor Merlin when she heard how anxious he was on the phone.
On the way to the school, she had received a message from Addison, which read, ‘Ellie, go and take a lo
now!‘
