Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 179

,Coolest Girl in Town

Elise stayed in the hospital to take care of Alexander. The next day, Jack dropped by for a visit. The
sight of him was unforgettable for Elise—she had never seen him more disconsolate than this. “How’s
Alexander?”



Jack’s hoarse voice cut through the silence, significantly sounding less energetic than his usual self.
“He’s fine. As long as he wakes up, there shouldn’t be any serious issue. I’m just worried because it
has been days, but his condition isn’t improving.”

Jack went up to the patient bed and stared at the almost lifeless Alexander. “Alexander, since we were
kids, you’ve always been a role model to us. Now, you need to wake up quickly as well.” He reached
out to clutch Alexander’s hand so tightly that it almost looked as if he was channeling energy into his
brother. “About Mikayla… Is there still no news about her?” Elise meekly asked the question. After
Mikayla’s name was mentioned, Jack’s already tired eyes appeared a tad dimmer.

If only I had agreed to go for the snowball fight with her, the outcome might have been different. After
the avalanche, Jack searched through the area but could not locate her. “She’ll be fine.” Even though
he told Elise that Mikayla would be fine, he didn’t know for sure. She’ll be fine. She will… “Just take
good care of Alexander. I will search for Mikayla to the best of my ability. If I can’t find her, I won’t
return.” Next, he let go of Alexander’s hand and turned to leave. Elise’s heart sank to the
bottom. Mikayla, come back to us soon! We’re all waiting for you.

That night, she was looking after Alexander at the bedside as usual. He had been in a coma for days,
but his eyes suddenly fluttered. Moving his stiff arms, he slowly inched around to sit up. The next
second, his arm accidentally came in touch with the girl by the bedside. In the darkness, he could still



recognize Elise. The sight of her warmed his heart. He pulled the blanket over to cover her. To his
surprise, Elise jumped in her dream and mumbled, “Alexander… Alexander, don’t leave me!”

After she was awake, she sat up and looked across the empty room. Soon, she seemed to have felt
the gaze of someone else in the darkness. “A-Are you awake?” Out of nowhere, she was yanked into
his embrace with great force. He was clumsy, but he savored the moment like the world would end the
instant and she would disappear along with it. It’s her… “Alexander, I’m scared to death because of
you.” Her voice cracked, and he tightened his hug around her.



His magnetic voice rang in her ears. “Don’t worry. I’m always here for you.” The familiarity of his voice
brought tears to her eyes. No one knew the extent of the heartache and stress she had suffered in the
past few days. “Are you feeling fine? Should I call the doctor? You’ve just woken up. Don’t move
around. If you need anything, just let me know.” While speaking, she let go of his hand. “I’m turning on
the lights. Wait for me here.”

She rose up only to be struck by a thought. Reflexively, she reached out to touch her face. In the past
few days, she had been so busy looking after him that she did not have the time to put on her disguise.
If she turned on the lights, he would see her real face. I can’t let him see my face. She came to a
decision right away. “I need to use the washroom. I’ll turn on the lights after that.” As she explained,
she deftly sneaked into the washroom and locked the door from the inside. Staring at her reflection in
the mirror, she gasped for air to calm herself down and frantically took out her foundation cushion to
powder her face.



He was taken aback by her odd behavior but did not pursue it further. Instead, he switched on the lights
by himself, and the room was brightly lit. His pupils struggled to adjust to the influx of brightness, and



he closed his eyes from the irritation. When his vision adjusted, he got out of bed. “Elise, are you
done?” Elise scrambled to get ready and shouted, “Give me a minute! Wait for me.” In a few moves,
she quickly put on her ugly disguise with makeup.

When she was satisfied with her appearance, she opened the door and strolled out. “I’m done,” she
said to him. Seeing the face he missed dearly, he opened his arms to her. After a little hesitation, she
walked to him and gave him a hug. “It’s great that you woke up,” she told him earnestly, and his lips
curled up into a dazzling smile. “It’s great to hug you again.” After he woke up from the coma, doctors
performed a multitude of tests on him, and she was there for him the whole time.

“This is good. His body is in great shape, and his recovery is going well. He will be under observation
for two more days before we discharge him.” The doctor’s comment soothed her worried heart. “Just
stay here for another two days, and we can go home.” Alexander looked at her and nodded in
obedience without any questions or comments. At the same time, he received a call from home, so he
picked it up. “Oh, Alexander, you’re finally awake!”

Alexander lifted a brow and asked, “Is everything okay in the company?” Danny was straightforward.
“Well, things were not going well at first, but thankfully, Boss told me to look for Jamie. The situation
has stabilized for now. We’re only waiting for your return.” Alexander shot a puzzled look in her
direction after hearing about Jamie. It sounds like she’s close to Jamie. “Alexander, are you listening?”
Danny’s voice pulled him back to the conversation, and he said, “You’ve gone through a lot. I’ll be back
in a few days’ time.” “It’s not a problem if Jamie’s around. He has great business acumen, and he acts
aggressively.

Even if you want to take a longer break, the company will turn out fine,” Danny praised Jamie to the
heavens, to which Alexander replied with a grunt as a sign of acknowledgment. After he ended the call,
Elise followed up, “How’s the situation back home? If you need to deal with company matters, we could
fly home earlier.” “It’s fine. The company is in good hands,” he answered and followed up with a



question. “Are you close to Jamie?” Elise felt her heart skip a beat and quickly clarified, “Yes, I guess
you can say so.” She had thought that he’d pester her with more questions, but he changed the topic.

“Any news about Mikayla?” The light in Elise’s eyes went out as she shook her head. “Nothing yet.”
Although Cynthia joined the search, Mikayla had, in fact, been missing after such a long time. It was
difficult to keep the news under wraps any longer, so Elise had informed Mikayla’s parents in the most
cautious manner possible.

Mikayla’s parents were on their way to Switzerland and were expected to arrive in the next two days.
“It’s okay. Don’t worry. Mikayla is a lucky girl. She’ll be safe.” Elise had no choice but to pray fervently
for her friend’s safety in her heart. The next day, Mikayla’s parents arrived with a heavy heart, but they
did not point their fingers at anyone.

The couple cooperatively worked with the rescue team to look for their daughter. Not long after, Cynthia
rushed to Elise with a grave expression. “Ellie, I have some unfortunate news for you. I hope you’re
mentally prepared.”
