Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 286

You’re Pushing Your Luck Too Far,Coolest Girl in Town

Elise walked out of the hotel and saw Alexander standing beside the car from a distance. From the way
his back figure looked, he seemed cold and lonely. As she approached, she made a heartless joke
about him. “How does it feel to have someone throwing themself at you, Mr. Griffith?” Alexander didn’t
respond, and merely stood there until Elise approached. Then, he turned sideways and promptly
opened the car door for her. Seeing that, Elise paused and looked up, only to find that Alexander’s face
expression was not a pleasant one. She admitted that she had overlooked that Alexander was a decent
gentleman, and it was biased to distinguish who took advantage of who according to his condition.



And so, Elise sorted out her expression to try her best to look serious, then she apologized seriously.
“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said that.” Alexander stiffened his face, retracted the hand that held the car
door open, and raised his chin arrogantly, as if trying to get back at her. Elise didn’t know whether to
laugh or weep. Who is the man here? It was just a small accident—did he get pissed at me just like
that? As Elise stared at Alexander’s stringent face, her stand gradually became less firm. After all, she
was the one who took the initiative to provoke Janice; otherwise, Alexander would not have
encountered such an unfortunate matter. Less than a minute after the silent war on the side of the road,
Elise raised her feet and stepped forward.

She then tipped her toes and hooked her arms around Alexander’s neck to bring herself close to his
face before she landed a peck on the corner of his mouth lightly. “Still angry now?” Alexander couldn’t
help raising the corners of his mouth, and there was a smile in his eyes—it was sweet and warm, as if
he didn’t mind being taken advantage of. When Elise saw this, her face turned hot immediately. As she
was about to back away, Alexander coiled his arm around her waist, and they were once again facing
each other. His dark eyes seemed to contain the entire starry sky—they were immensely deep and
romantic.



“That’s not enough,” Alexander said with his deep voice. After he finished speaking, he leaned forward.
Their lips touched, and at this point, they were inseparable. It wasn’t until their breaths became a little
rugged that Alexander reluctantly let go of Elise. Elise felt a sense of dizziness, but after regaining her
senses, she realized that she was still trapped in Alexander’s arms. Immediately, she clenched her fist
in anger and punched his chest twice. “You’re pushing your luck!” The corner of Alexander’s mouth
raised into a doting arc, and he deliberately used his strength to close their distance. “I prefer to call it
the demonstration of love. You know, the body doesn’t lie; you didn’t push me away just now, which
proves that you and I love each other deeply.

Am I wrong?” Elise bit her lower lip, whereupon the redness on her face extended to the back of her
ear instantly. For a moment, she didn’t know how to respond to him. Under the moonlight, Elise’s shy
and astringent face was particularly radiant, and Alexander’s heart was on the verge of beating out of
his chest as he mumbled, “This waiting game is too hard.” He couldn’t wait to marry this woman. He
couldn’t wait to be more intimate with her, to bring her closer to his body… He wanted to be the closest
person to Elise. “What?” Elise didn’t hear him, so she raised her head to ask him what he said, but their
bodies collided unintentionally because of this.

When she felt a foreign object on his body pressing against her, she pushed him away with force and
subconsciously took a few steps back to put some distance between them. Alexander also realized that
he had lost his cool, so he lowered his head to clear his throat. “G-Get in the car. It’s late—you should
go back and rest early.” “Yeah.” Elise nodded vigorously, then got into the backseat swiftly and closed
the door with a bang. Along the way, neither of them exchanged words, but they did make eye contact
through the rearview mirror from time to time.

Alexander sent Elise to the door of the room and watched her close the door before finally turning
around to wait for the elevator. Honestly, he himself didn’t realize that such a trivial and boring thing
would make him keep his sweet smile for so long. … The next day, Alexander took Elise to participate
in the project bidding meeting. Once they win the bid, it would mean all the similar projects in the whole



of Athesea would be led by Griffith Group. When it was Alexander’s turn to bid for the project, there
was a commotion in the admission area as someone was trying to cut the cue, but the bidding
continued.

The host on the stage dropped the gavel and started the bidding, and Alexander immediately gave the
price that everyone could not reach. “Twenty billion.” Everyone present knew Alexander’s identity. They
were obviously afraid of the strength of the Griffith family in Tissote; therefore, no one dared to
challenge the price. The host kept saying things to flatter Alexander while preparing to make a final
decision, but just one second before his gavel fell, a very discordant voice sounded in the back row of
the venue. “Twenty billion and ten dollars.” As soon as the words fell, everyone turned to look at the
owner of the voice, wanting to see who was so bold to dare to contest with the Griffith Family from
Tissote.

Johan stood up slowly amid doubts and curiosity as he tidied up his jacket proudly. Spending twenty
billion to give Alexander and Elise some unhappiness and inconvenience was a fair price he was willing
to pay. He couldn’t go wrong if he grabbed something that Alexander was eyeing. Maybe once his
grandfather found out, he would even praise him for doing a good job. Faye sat on the chair beside
Johan and held her forehead in disgust, feeling speechless. She dragged this guy here because she
wanted him to get familiar with business growth and knowledge, but there he went, taking the initiative
to provoke the Griffith Family. He was practically asking for trouble!

For the Olson and Anderson Families to succeed in combining their assets through a political marriage,
it was imperative that they not only keep people from finding out about their plans, but also ensure that
they didn’t make too many enemies in the process as well. At first, she thought that Johan was just a
little more playful, and when he matured, he would naturally mellow down. However, right now, Faye
was rethinking every single one of her decisions, wondering whether she had overestimated Johan.
Elise recognized Johan just by his voice, but her physical disgust toward him made her too lazy to look
back, so she leaned slightly to the side of Alexander and whispered, “Athesea is small enough.



We just met him at a bar yesterday, and now we bumped into him here again! This scoundrel is onto
us. I bet we’re going to be in trouble for a while.” Alexander didn’t take it to heart at first, but after
hearing her say this, he understood that Johan was the one behind this. Immediately raising his right
hand lightly, Alexander said in the most serious tone, “Twenty-five billion.” Johan, who was still
complacent just now, instantly became angry when he heard Alexander’s new bid. He slammed his
hand on the chairs of the guests in the front seat and shouted, “Are you mocking me?”

Elise couldn’t help laughing out loud, and deliberately said in a mocking tone, “Wow. He just made a
bid, yet you saw it as mockery. How fascinating!” When the words fell, everyone snickered, and seeing
Johan’s embarrassed face, they laughed even more vigorously. Faye was so angry that her face turned
green. Immediately, she stood up and turned to leave. Johan grabbed her wrist and asked angrily,
“Where are you going!?” He was already being humiliated, and Faye, as his fiancée, was indifferent
and didn’t say anything—now, she even wanted to leave him here alone?

Faye shook his hand away. “If you want to embarrass yourself, leave me out of it. I can’t afford to
embarrass myself this way.” After speaking, she walked away. Johan glared fiercely in the direction of
Alexander and Elise with gritted teeth, and finally left angrily. Elise said jokingly, “His tolerance is
smaller than that of a sparrow.

Is he seriously calling himself a man if he can’t even tolerate such a small matter?” Alexander smiled
and stretched out his hand in front of Elise. “It was nice working with you.” Elise smiled happily, then
held Alexander’s hand to shake it. “Likewise!”
