Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 482

Getting Even

“I’ll go,” Elise answered succinctly. “When we come back later, let’s change the name of Shaw’s Jewelry
Co.”

“Change it to what?” Tom was curious.

“Alexis.” At the thought of Alexander, a smile appeared on Elise’s face.

“Ah… Lexis?” As he did not hear Elise clearly, Tom pondered on that thought and decided that Lexis was
a good fit in the end. “Alright, I’ll get someone to design the logo immediately.”

“It’s not urgent,” she said as she briefly pursed her lips. She wanted this to be a surprise for Alexander,
so she wanted to design the logo herself.

However, Tom thought that she was just being courteous with him. Therefore, right after the meeting, he
went to look for a designer that he was familiar with to design the brand logo.

After Tom left, Elise went directly to the restaurant.

When she got there, Alexander had already ordered breakfast for her.

Just as she sat down, he passed her a cup of milk that he had been holding onto.

“Here, drink this cup of milk first.”

“Thank you.”

Taking the drink over, she took a sip as she thought, Wow. The milk is still warm.

“Did it go smoothly?” Alexander asked casually.



“Nothing out of the ordinary,” Elise replied in a good mood. She then recalled what Tom said, so she
asked, “I may have to visit Dukethorn in two days. Do you want to tag along?”

Hearing that, he showed a troubled face. “Can it be postponed by two days? I can’t leave yet.”

“Oh, it’s fine. You can focus on your work while I do mine,” she said understandingly.

Though she did not want to be separated from him, she knew that distance was inevitable no matter how
close the person was to her.

Having a career of their own would help build a long-lasting relationship. Therefore, she decided to try
and get used to being away from him in short intervals during this long-term relationship.

Not to mention, she wasn’t a well-pampered and spoiled young lady.

After some thoughts, Alexander said, “Have Clement and the others follow along.”

“There is no need for that. I’m going there for business, not to travel,” she replied.

“When you’re out, you should have bodyguards by your side. They can handle conflicts that require
fighting.” He looked at her with a concerned expression.

She seemed to have heard this sentence from somewhere. Nevertheless, she couldn’t help but retort,
“Are you expecting them to protect me? You don’t even know who’s the one protecting the other.”

Stumped for a moment, he felt helpless, but he still insisted. “I know that you’re perfectly capable of
fighting, but Dukethorn is a messy city. You can’t fight everyone on your own. It’s better to have a few
people by your side.”

Knowing that she would not be able to win the argument, she no longer rejected. However, her gaze
suddenly turned cold and murderous.



Noticing that, Alexander was worried that her hostility was toward Kenneth, so he asked, feeling a little
guilty. “Is there something bothering you?”

“No.” With her eyes squinted, she said in a dangerous tone, “I suddenly remembered that I have to get
even with Faye.”

Upon hearing that, he was secretly relieved. He then humored, “Sounds like Faye’s going to get unlucky.”

Hearing that, Elise simply smiled without replying.

Since Faye intended to kill her and get the jadeite, Elise was going to let her get a taste of her own
medicine. As for the killing part… Elise didn’t have such plans yet, so she’ll spare Faye her life.

Faye. Oh, Faye. You better stay alive. When my brother wakes up, he’ll definitely go to you personally to
get his revenge.

After finishing her breakfast, she made a phone call.

The person on the other end picked up quickly. “So, Miss Elise still remembers this unimportant
character. Is the sun rising from the west today?”

“Cut it out.” Elise then said in a serious tone, “I’m here to give you a job.”

“No thanks. I’ve already changed for the better. I no longer do anything bad.” The opposite end then
added, “My mother’s health isn’t the best. I want to be a good person. Hopefully, God will bless her then.”





“Oh? Didn’t you want to be Robin Hood? Are you not interested in stealing from the rich for the poor?”
Elise questioned.



At this moment, the other side fell silent. It seemed that he was starting to get swayed.

She then proceeded to persuade him, “Saving someone’s life is worth more than doing good deeds. Isn’t
that a fast track to gain God’s blessings?”

“Then, you have to ensure the opponent is a bad person,” the person on the phone said as if he was
giving his all.

“You have my word,” Elise said in a serious manner. “I don’t want to hide it from you either. This person
tried to kill my family several times. I have to teach them a lesson. Hence, you can see it as my personal
matter. I won’t force you to help me.”

“What? Kill Miss Elise’s family! How dare this person?! You should’ve said that earlier! I won’t neglect this
matter. Why don’t I beat that person up?” the person said with righteous indignation.

As Elise heard that, it made her feel touched yet helpless. “There’s no need for that. I’m not so violent.
All you have to do is…”

…

On that night, Faye was tossing and turning in her bed as she was unable to fall asleep.

Thinking that Elise was getting all the attention these past few days, she was so mad that her chest felt
painful.

Making another turn, she suddenly noticed that there were some faint noises outside.

“Who’s there?” Using her arm as support, she lifted her upper body up as she looked toward the living
room.

Just as she said that, all the lights in the house were suddenly dimmed.



“Who’s there?!” Her alerted voice sounded threatening. Immediately, she picked up the phone that was
on the headboard wardrobe.

Immediately, she could feel as if someone had barged in.

After dialing the number of the hotel lobby, she was prepared to call for help.

At this moment, the person outside suddenly spoke up.

“Miss Anderson, I’ve accomplished the task.”

After that, the man turned on a flashlight to shed light on his surroundings.

He was standing far away by a storage shelf and had his hand placed on a silver safe. “The blood jadeite
is right here. Unfortunately, I don’t have the passcode, and I’m afraid that I’ll damage the jadeite inside if I
open it by force. That’s why I can only bring the whole safe over to you.”

“What about Elise Sinclair?” Faye didn’t seem to be suspicious at all.

“That pretty lady? She’s probably in the emergency room now. I could’ve gotten rid of her, but the Griffith
guy showed up,” the man said as if it was a pity.

Hearing that Elise was hurt, Faye smiled triumphantly. “Good job. You can leave the thing here. I’ll
transfer you the money tomorrow.”

“That won’t do, Miss Anderson. I only accept cash or checks.” The man touched the handle of the safe
as he said in a suggestive manner, “Pardon my straightforwardness, Miss Anderson, but the thing in the
safe must be worth more than my pay. If I’m not getting the money tonight, I will take the jadeite with me
and make a deal with someone else.”



“No!” Faye said quickly, but she realized that she was exposing herself. Hence, she quickly changed her
tone before coming up with an excuse. “You’re wrong. The item inside isn’t worth much. Aside from the
Andersons, it’s just a useless piece of stone to others. You won’t get any money if you bring it away.”

After that, she got out of bed before opening her own safe using the light from her phone screen.

Inside the safe, there were a few hundreds of thousands inside along with some certifications and
important documents. Even the jade that she had gotten today from the auction was inside it.

Taking out 50,000 in cash and a checkbook, she immediately locked the safe back.

After writing down the amount agreed on the check, she walked out before giving the man both the cash
and the check.

“You can cash out the check any time you want. This 50,000 is a bonus.”

Pressing his cap lower, he took the check and cash before saying, “Well, thank you, Miss Anderson.”

After that, he turned off the light before running out.

After locking the stolen safe into her own, she went to sleep in peace.

…

The next day.

“Ah!”
