Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 1071

Chapter 1071Chapter 1071 First Loves Are Meant to be Missed
"Mole? Who is it? You don't think it's me, do you?" Narissa peppered as a hint of malice laced her
quirked brow.
"No, no, no, no, no. How dare I doubt your character?! You don't know this yet, do you? Raymond and
Clement just got ambushed by Area X, and Alex still hasn't come around…" Danny left his words
hanging and waited for Narissa's response. He was sure the young woman would get what he was trying
to say.
If they wanted to put on a show for the outsiders, they'd need the foes, Narissa and Zephyr, to play the
lead. However, there was no conflict during this important time, so he had to come up with something.
Alas, Narissa didn't react dramatically as he had expected but merely nodded understandingly. "Indeed,
there are many things we don't know about him."
"Right? I knew you'd also suspect him!" Danny's eyes lit up. He believed the show was about to begin.
"I did in the past," Narissa affirmed his speculation but corrected him the next second. "However, El and
Alexander both trust him. Thus, I think we should also have a little faith in him."
It was apparent to Danny that Narissa's killer instinct was lacking that day, so he could only shrug it off. "I
get what you mean, but for everyone's safety, Zephyr has to go if another accident happens."
At that, Narissa withdrew her gaze but didn't rebut him. "You guys make the call. I'm tired, so I'm going to
turn in now. I have to continue looking for El tomorrow, after all."
With that, she went upstairs. She dared not stay downstairs for too long, for she feared running into
Jamie."Looks like someone failed to make himself the rat, eh?" Ariel deliberately teased him, seeing that Danny
failed to bring about a dispute.
"Well, who knew she'd do a one-eighty so suddenly?! If it were in the past, she would've flipped out the
moment she had something on Zephyr!" Danny shrugged, feeling blameless.
"Well, it is weird," Ariel mused while nodding in agreement. "It seems to me that she and Jamie have
been acting strange ever since coming back from the resort. They've barely had any interactions."
"Yes, you're right!" Danny turned inexplicably excited as he smelled gossip coming. "That's exactly what I
was trying to say! You know me so well, Honey. It's like you live in my brain!"
"Can't you use a different reference?" Ariel huffed but wasn't serious about it. At that, she mused, "Do
you remember the day we were drugged? Narissa and Jamie only returned at 3.00AM. Narissa was
already acting weird at the time. I guess you could say she was quite impassive. Jamie wasn't himself
either, and his clothes were buttoned weirdly. It's clear that he removed them at one point. If he had done
it while he was with Narissa, she could've helped him out before helping him back to the room. However,
she pulled a grim face the entire time and became evidently distant from Jamie the next day."
"Are you saying Jamie was with another woman before Narissa found him? Then, wouldn't that mean…"
Danny was struck with an epiphany, and he instantly became worried.
This was a serious matter of principle, and he was Exhibit A. If Jamie failed to hold the fort, then the
consequences would be bleak.
Ariel nodded grimly. He was finally on the same page as her. However, neither was willing to believe their
guess.
At that, Danny thought for a moment and said, "I think we should be more optimistic. They're each
other's first love, after all. They won't break up so easily."Ariel, on the other hand, wasn't so optimistic. "Have you never heard of this saying? First loves are
meant to be missed."
"Maverick was your first love. Do you miss him?" Danny blurted, only realizing what he had just said right
after thinking aloud. At that, he gave himself a couple of solid slaps in the face. "Sorry, Honey. I don't
mean anything else. I just think Narissa and Jamie are a pretty good match. It'll be a shame if they break
up."
"You never know. Only the couple in the relationship knows if they are meant to be together." Ariel
sighed, then glanced casually at the door. However, she quirked a brow as though she just saw
something bizarre.
At that, Danny turned around, following her line of sight to find Jamie standing by the door. The man had
pretty terrible dark circles, and his cheeks and chin were covered in stubble. As if that wasn't bad
enough, his eyes were dull, and his face was sunken. He was practically a feeble hobo.
"Dude, what the f*ck?!" Danny leaned back exaggeratedly. "Who are you?!"
"Your better-looking brother from another mother." Jamie shuffled into the living room like a zombie, then
slumped onto the couch before pouring himself a glass of water and chugging it.
"Are you sure you haven't just returned from the edge of the world instead of having just gone out to look
for Elise?" Danny exclaimed with shock. He thought the man was literally sticks and bones, and he didn't
look sane either.
"No," Jamie answered absent-mindedly. "I just didn't want to stop. Once I stop, I'll have to face many
things I don't want to."
At that, Danny and Ariel exchanged a glance. No doubt their guess was pretty solid."Ahem," Danny cleared his throat, sat beside Jamie, and leaned closer to him, whispering, "Dude, be
honest with me. Have you slipped up back at the mountain?"
"I didn't!" yelled Jamie as he shot right to his feet. "I will never betray Narissa! Nothing happened that
day! We're going to be okay!"
Danny was rendered stunned by Jamie's reaction, and it took him a moment to come to himself. With
that, he stood up and pushed Jamie back onto the couch. "Okay, okay, you didn't. We're just checking in
because we're worried about you two. You don't have to be so worked up."
"Am I?" Jamie forced a hint of a smile, pretending to be relaxed. "I'm not worked up at all. Either way, I
will never love anyone else other than Narissa. We'll live a blessed married life. We definitely will."
Who knew if he said his latter words to Danny or himself?
"You two are the sweetest couple in the world. We don't need any more PDAs from you two." Danny was
fooled just like that. Ariel, on the other hand, smelled something fishy, but she kept quiet about it for now.
"By the way..." Danny decided to be mischievous again, using Zephyr to irritate him. "I think Doc might
be a mole. What do you think?"
novelbinWorried that the question would divert back to Narissa if the conversation dragged on, Jamie agreed
right off the bat, saying profoundly, "We should keep a lookout. After all, who can you trust if you can't
even trust yourself sometimes?"
Danny was dumbfounded. What is up with these two?! Who are they, and what have they done to
Narissa and Jamie?!
"Alright, I just came back to check in on things. Since Boss is still out there, I have to keep looking."
Jamie let out a murky breath at that, then shot up to his feet again. However, he fell back down beforestanding still, landing right into Danny's arms coincidentally.
"Hey, Jamie! Jamie! Wake up! Dude, quit it! This isn't funny!" Danny shook the man violently, but he
remained unresponsive. As such, he could only go upstairs to get Irvin.
After a brief check-up, Irvin eased their minds. "He's fine. He's just worn out from not sleeping for a long
time. He'll be fine after a long, solid sleep."
"Don't tell me this b*stard hasn't slept for days…" As livid as Danny was, he felt bad for Jamie as well.
"I wouldn't rule that out," said Ariel. "He lost all courage to face everything the last time Elise went
missing, and I think he also needs a confidence boost from her right now."
