Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 162

,Coolest Girl in Town

“Thank you, Julius,” Elise answered earnestly. However, Julius merely smiled. “We are good friends, so
there’s no need to be so polite.” Right after they walked out of the room, she locked the room from
inside before walking to the elevator. “I still remember the last time I left and even quietly thought that I
would never be here again. Less than two years have passed and I’m here once again. It’s quite
emotional,” she said slowly. He gently looked at her. “Actually, from the beginning, I already knew that
you’d return. It’s all a matter of time.



Fortunately, I waited until this moment. All the best for the competition tomorrow. I will be there to cheer
you on and I look forward to seeing your performance.” Elise grunted. “The competition tomorrow will
be among small groups and I will do my best.” After she walked out of the elevator, she directly headed
for the garage that stored her favorite car. Even though it had been parked here for around two to three
years, there wasn’t a lot of dust on it because Julius had asked people to regularly maintain it. Elise sat
on the driver’s seat where she seemed to have discovered the familiar past.

The moment she started the car, she floored the accelerator to drive the vehicle out. As the fancy
sports car sped on the road, it had attracted many people’s attention. However, she ignored them and
drove all the way to the hotel. After she removed her cap, she casually left it on the passenger seat
whereupon she started to tidy her hair before exiting the vehicle. The moment that she walked into the
lobby of the hotel, she ran into Alexander, who was engaged in a call. It seemed that they had entered
the elevator one after another, which now resulted in her standing right next to him.

“Settle this matter first. If there are any problems, contact me again.” With that, he immediately hung
up. When he looked at the reflection in the mirror, he was slightly repulsed by the coincidences he had
with Joy. What he never expected was the woman to actually attract him and subconsciously made him



desire to be closer to her. What the hell? “Did you just return, Miss Sinclair” Alexander broke the
silence by asking. Elise initially planned on feigning that she didn’t notice him. Now that he had taken
the initiative to speak to her, she hummed in reply.

There was no further exchange of words after her response. When the elevator doors opened, she
walked out first before they both returned to their respective rooms. As soon as she returned to her
room, Elise entered the bathroom to take a shower. When she reemerged, she grabbed a towel to dry
her wet hair before she stood in front of the French windows to gaze at the city’s night scenery. The
bright neon lights and the exciting night life were indeed difficult to resist. Ding dong! It was at this
moment when her doorbell rang and aroused her curiosity about the person who rang the bell.

Who would look for me at this hour? She walked to the door and asked, “Who is it?” “It’s me!” Upon
hearing those two words being spoken in a familiar tone, she froze. Then, she opened the door with
slight incredulity. “Mr. Griffith, why are you here?” Alexander asked, “Do you have hot water here? My
kettle is spoiled.” Elise blinked before answering, “Yeah, I do. Give me your cup and I will fill it up for
you.” Then, he passed the glass in his hands to her. After she took it from him, she went inside to fill it
with hot water while he waited quietly by the door.



“Here you go, Mr. Griffith.” Elise handed the full glass to Alexander as he stretched out with his hands
to accept it. When he did so, his gaze involuntarily fell on her hands and saw a black mole on the back
of her hand that was quite conspicuous. Without thinking much about it, he took the glass and
responded, “Thanks!”

After that, she closed the door and returned to her room without thinking too much about the encounter.
Somewhere deep in the night, Elise woke up with a violent cough after choking on the thick smoke.
However, the smoke seemed to get thicker and made her realize that something was amiss, which
forced her to immediately open her eyes.





Smoke was already permeating the huge room at this stage; it was as if the place was on fire. “There’s
a fire here…” The fire alarm rang outside along with the cries of men and women. She couldn’t stop
coughing because of the smoke and quickly snatched the towel to cover her nose and mouth while
stumbling to the door. As soon as she opened it, she saw that people were fleeing for the safety exit
along the corridor. Upon seeing this, she joined them. All of a sudden, many people from the hotel
gathered together and ran down the stairs. Elise had no idea who pushed her, but she lost her balance
and leaned forward against the wall.

She stopped walking for a moment as she inhaled deeply. As the crowd had been leaving one after
another, there were only a few people behind her. “Are you alright?” Alexander’s voice suddenly rang in
her ears. She quickly nodded. “Yeah, I’m fine. Why are you still here? Quickly head down…” There was
slight anxiety in Elise’s tone as she subconsciously tugged his elbow while running downstairs.
However, he was stunned to the point where he froze for a second, which gave rise to a familiar feeling
when he saw such a sight. He didn’t have the time to think it through and merely ran downstairs with
her.

As he did so, he quietly held her hand. Both of them ran all the way to the ground floor from the tenth
floor. She was panting for breath, feeling as if she had narrowly escaped death while the crowd
chattered noisily. “Are you alright?” “Are you alright?” Alexander and Elise spoke at the same time,
thereafter staring at each other. It was only at this moment when they realized that they had interlocked
their fingers and released their hands almost instantaneously. “What is going on? Everything was fine.
Why is there a fire?” Elise asked as she still panted.

She wasn’t the only shocked person; those around her were questioning the same thing as well. He
raised his head and looked at the fire above them. “When I was running downstairs, I saw the room
next to us on fire. The fire was so massive that it nearly affected all ten floors of the hotel…”



Meanwhile, the fire brigade quickly drove to the venue one after another to extinguish the fire. As many
voices were mixed together, it led to a rather chaotic scene. “What would happen to us for the rest of
the night?” Elise asked as many people around her demanded a solution from the hotel. The hotel
employees quickly attempted to pacify the crowd and said, “Please don’t be anxious. We will think of a
solution for everyone.”

The fire was too sudden and it had happened during the middle of the night. After the firemen had
spent around half an hour extinguishing the fire, the situation was finally under control. Fortunately, it
was caused by electrical appliances and no one died in the accident. “Please be patient. We have
already arranged a new place for everyone to stay, but there are limited rooms. Two people need to
share a room together.

If you have any friends or know anyone, you can share the same room. You can request the room keys
from me now.” The moment the manager finished his words, many customers went to him in pairs to
get their card. Since both Elise and Alexander were on their own, they wanted to look for another
person to share the room. However, everyone had already left by the time they waited, which left them
as the only remaining people there. They stared at each other before concurrently asking, “W-What
should we do, manager?”
