Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 514

A Logical Explanation

Everyone else had supported Elise, but Faye’s face darkened when she saw that. These old jerks!
They support whoever has the advantage right now. All of them have forgotten how much money I
earned for them throughout these years! Because of this little profit today, they have betrayed me
completely. Ungrateful scums! When I officially take over Anderson Pharmaceuticals, the first thing I
will do is to fire these stakeholders who have betrayed me!

However, she could not do anything at this moment.

“Mr. Anderson, it seems like everyone has agreed for Miss Yoona to represent your company to
discuss our collaboration. Am I right?” Kenneth asked with a slight smile.

Austin nodded. After all, his current position in the company couldn’t be compared to the stakeholders,
so he was unable to do anything but follow their wishes.

Kenneth pressed his lips into a smile and asked Elise, “In that case, Miss Yoona, shall we find a quiet
spot to discuss the details of the collaboration?”

Elise eyed him before offering her hand to him. “It’s my pleasure to do so.”

After all, she had already accomplished her goals here and she had no interest in socializing with them
either. It was a good opportunity for her to avoid them and have some peace. Hence, they entered the
Anderson Family mansion.

As soon as they walked through the door, Elise withdrew her hand to sit on the couch to open his
present. After she had shoved him aside, Kenneth froze for a brief moment and clenched his fingers as
he helplessly sighed. Then, he followed her and sat beside her on the couch.



Elise saw a gold-plated USB drive when she opened the box. Holding the item in her hand, she asked,
“What is this?”

“You will know after seeing the contents.” Kenneth crossed his legs with one hand on the couch and
another on his lap, looking like a boss indeed.

Elise rolled her eyes at him and asked the servants to bring a laptop to her. When she received it, she
immediately checked out the contents of the USB drive in front of him.

There was only one folder in the drive named ‘CM’. After she opened it, a few documents and pictures
appeared.

Elise randomly opened one of the folders. However, her expression became grim the moment she
looked at what was inside. She tried to take in the information for a bit before she raised her head to
look at Kenneth again. “You’re investigating me?”

The reason for her question was because the picture showed a woman whom she had been anxiously
looking for—Clemence Murray.

“It’s more accurate to say that I am investigating the person whom you want to investigate,” Kenneth
replied calmly.

“What’s the difference? If you don’t investigate me, how do you know I’m looking for her?” Elise asked
sarcastically.

“Perhaps it’s because I know you well enough.” Kenneth’s lips twitched into a chivalrous and polite
smile.

“That is just your assumption. You better stop investigating me for no good reason. I don’t like it.” She
felt as though she was being watched by the people behind SK Group.



Kenneth shrugged without replying to her.

In those few seconds of silence, Elise slowly regained her rationality. She did not hasten to quickly read
the information in the USB drive and instead closed the window. Of course, she had erased all the
traces that might be left behind. Looking at the dimmed screen, she asked again, “Why are you helping
me?”

“You are a woman I want to marry. Who will I help, if not you?” he replied in a matter-of-fact tone.

“I don’t want to hear such a reason that you use to tell others as well. You better give me a reason that
can convince me,” Elise answered with a solemn expression.



Kenneth merely heaved a helpless sigh again. “Well, I’m telling the truth, but I have other reasons as
well.”

With that, he took a pause and met Elise’s clear eyes. Then, he said seriously, “It’s for business.”

“Business?” Elise arched her eyebrow, thinking of the credibility of his words.

“That’s right,” he added firmly. “You acquired the red jade twice, which shows that you have good luck.
Of course I know that you are more than just lucky—you have the skills too. I would not let someone
who is both lucky and skilled slip away, for I like to work with people who like that.”

“The leader of Smith Co. actually believes in something as unreliable as luck.” Elise looked at him
incredulously.

“That’s right. I know luck sounds even more unreliable than the weather report, but sometimes you just
have to believe that people who are lucky seem to have God on their side. So, I would like to also
obtain some of your luck. Are you satisfied with my explanation?” Kenneth smiled at her.



Though it seemed rather unreliable, she had to agree that it was logical. Some people believed in God
and others in geomancy while the more realistic ones believed that it was up to one’s decision to
decide their fate. Luck was no different from these beliefs as it was purely a personal preference.

“Barely.” Elise placed the USB drive into her bag as a silent approval to his explanation.

However, he suddenly started a new topic of conversation. “By the way, I found something else related
to Alexander. Would you be interested?”

Elise’s gaze darkened upon hearing that. She took out a silver needle and turned around to aim for
Kenneth’s eyes, but he avoided her attack in an agile manner.

When the needle flew past his ear, he returned to his previous posture and pretended to pat his chest
fearfully. “If I hadn’t been looking at you all this while, one of my eyes might be blind.”

“That’s because you deserve it. If you are blind, you will stop looking at things that you are not
supposed to look at,” Elise informed without any warmth in her voice. “I have already warned you many
times that you won’t end up well if you challenge my bottom line. Alexander is my man. If you dare to
touch him, no matter how many people at Smith Co. can take the damage for you, I’m still able to make
your life so difficult that you wish to be dead.”

Alexander seemed to be her bottom line. After finishing her sentence, she did not want to stay any
longer and stormed off after taking her handbag with her.

Kenneth placed his hand on the couch’s hand rest and supported his chin in disappointment as he
watched her leave. I wanted to tell her my identity, but it seems like I need to find another time to do so.
I think I can understand why she can’t tell me about her various different identities.



In order to avoid the guests, Elise walked from the entrance to the garden before she hailed a cab to
leave. Initially, she planned to return to the Sinclair Residence to perform a checkup on Laura.
However, she seemed to remember something when she saw Clement standing by the gate. Then, she
changed her direction and headed to Alexander’s place as she looked Clement in the eye.

However, Clement was still rather stony and rigid, as if he was just a stone statue.

“Clement, your name is quite special.” Elise appraised him from head to toe as she addressed him
meaningfully.

She had already investigated him and found out that he was from Smith Co. It was not a big deal, but
now that Kenneth had started to extend his reach to Alexander, she had to be on guard.

“What is it, Miss Sinclair?” Clement looked at the ground impassively.
