Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 576

Gift of Confidence From Grandpa and Grandma

Mikayla had just walked down the steps outside the door when she turned around and stopped Jack in
his tracks.

“I know my way out, so you can stop here.”

Jack paused in his tracks and didn’t insist on walking her out. He merely asked her casually, “How have
you been lately? I’ve taken on many jobs recently, so I haven’t had time to visit you at the university.”

“I’m not that interesting, so why would you come and see me anyway?” Mikayla replied self-mockingly.
“I’m just an ordinary student. Mr. Griffith, you’re obviously someone destined to be under the limelight
and you have plenty of things to deal with every day. Even if we’re just friends, ordinary people like me
should tweak my schedule to meet yours instead,” she said.

At that point, Jack felt bad after hearing her words. “Are you upset at me?”

Meanwhile, Mikayla shook her head and revealed a composed smile. “No, Jack. I do regard you as my
friend, so that’s why I’m saying all this to you. It’s quite true; you are always under the limelight while
I’m just a nobody. I’m quite content to be able to befriend such an outstanding person like you. I’m
happy to coordinate my time according to yours, and I don’t think that you’ve screwed up anything. On
the contrary, your focus on your career has made me realize that it’s quite awesome to have such a
career-oriented and popular friend.”

Jack frowned slightly. “I haven’t helped you recover your memories, though…”

“That’s no longer necessary.” Mikayla behaved like an understanding friend, and she smiled serenely at
him before taking a deep breath. At that point, she seemed to relax significantly. “I think that my current



life is quite great; although I’ve lost some things, perhaps they aren’t meant to be mine after all. I don’t
want to continue wasting time on this matter too.”

She paused after saying this and looked at Jack impishly with a slightly nosy look. “It’s rare for us to
meet, so can I take this chance to ask you a question? Before we lost our memories, do you think we
dated each other? Do you think it was a relationship where you were deeply infatuated with me and
only had eyes for me?”

“That’s impossible! I would never be deeply infatuated with anyone!” Jack spoke haughtily.

However, he couldn’t help feeling anxious after saying that. Before Mikayla lost her memories, she had
always harbored such hopes. Was his denial a cruel thing to say to her?

“That’s great!” Mikayla chuckled out loud. “In that case, even if I don’t recover those memories, there’s
no need to feel sad about it. After all, you’re such a handsome guy. I would be quite lucky to have
dated you.”

“That’s for sure!” When Jack saw that she was completely taking this as a joke, he couldn’t help feeling
at ease.

“There is one thing, though.” Mikayla suddenly changed the topic. Then, she teased him playfully by
saying, “Even if you’re handsome, you’re just someone suitable to go on a date with. You’re not
someone suited for marriage, because it would be terrible to only meet up less than ten times a year. In
the future, if a woman is interested in you, then that would be your blessing. Hence, you must grab the
opportunity and don’t let her leave you!”

“Hey, don’t judge me so badly, alright? I’ve won the Best Actor Award before, you know!” Jack lifted his
brows impatiently.



Meanwhile, she simply shrugged and lifted her hand to wave at him. “Very well, then. Goodbye, Best
Actor!”

As soon as Mikayla said that, she bounded off with a bounce in her step.

As for Jack, he stood there staring until her figure disappeared from the alley. Then, he heaved a deep
sigh before turning around to enter the house.

As soon as he walked in, Elise started to tease him. She asked, “How did the chat with Mikayla go?”

“How else do you think it could’ve gone? She can’t be bothered to talk to me.” Jack walked into the
room dejectedly. Suddenly, he couldn’t help glancing from the side of his eyes as he caught sight of
Winona’s figure beside him. Gosh, this girl doesn’t even care about her image in front of a guy. She’s
truly a glutton in front of and behind the cameras.



“Ellie,” Alexander suddenly came out of the stone doors from the back yard as he gestured with his
hands at her. “Could you come over for a minute?”

“Okay.” Elise lifted her feet and headed in that direction, but she paused after taking several steps. She
turned to look at Jack and said, “You’ve gone on a variety show before, right? Since you’re quite free,
could you help me explain to Winona what issues to pay attention to? I don’t want to embarrass myself
in front of the entire nation.”

“Sure, I’ll do that. Go over there, and I’ll sort things out for you.”

Jack pulled out a chair and took a seat across the table from Winona. Then, he placed both of his
hands under his chin and looked at her thoughtfully. “Is it that tasty?”

“It’s really tasty…” Winona didn’t even bother looking at him.



…

Meanwhile, Elise followed Alexander and walked into the room of the two elderly Sinclairs.

The two of them sat in an upright position in the living room with a solemn expression on both of their
faces, so Elise couldn’t help but feel anxious all of a sudden.

“What’s wrong?” Elise asked Alexander in a soft voice.

“Ellie, come over this side,” said Robin as he suddenly called out to her.

As for Elise, she was quite perplexed. However, she slowly made her way toward him and squatted
down in front of him. “What’s wrong, Grandpa?”

Robin lowered his head and asked her in a grave voice, “Will you regret marrying Alexander?”

Elise turned to shoot a look at Alexander, realizing that he had told them about their marriage.

She turned back and held Robin’s hand in hers. Then, she spoke sincerely. “I hold him dear to my heart
just as he does too. As long as he keeps me close to his heart, I promise not to disappoint him.”

“Okay.” Robin nodded and subsequently took out a large key from his pocket. Then, he placed it into
Elise’s hands. “This is the key to the Sinclair Family’s safe. Your grandma and I have discussed this,
and we’ve decided to give it to you on your wedding day as a form of dowry. Hence, it’s time to hand it
over to you now.”

“A safe?” Elise was taken by surprise. After all, she was unaware that there was even such an item in
their family.

“It’s located in the underground cellar in our room at the ancestral home.” Robin further explained, “We
didn’t tell you in the past because we didn’t want you to feel pressured. Now that you’ve got Alexander



here to share the load with you, it’s fine. He’s a great guy, and I am happy with this grandson-in-law.
From now on, you guys are free to use the Sinclair money to your liking.”

“No, Grandpa. I can’t possibly take that.” Elise returned the key to him. “This is both of your retirement
savings, after all. I have my own money and I can’t take yours.”

“This is for you.” Robin’s tone of voice became much more unyielding as he solemnly instructed, “Take
the money, and you’ll be responsible for caring for us in the future. I only trust you, you know.”

Robin had made his stance quite clear, so Elise could no longer reject him as that would make her
seem quite disobedient.

“Okay,” Elise held the key tightly. “I’ll definitely make sure that you and Grandma enjoy a stable and
enjoyable life from now on.”

Robin didn’t respond to her words immediately, but he lifted his head to speak to Alexander. “Wait for
us outside. I’ve got something to tell Elise in private,” he said.

“Okay.” Alexander obediently shut the door after him and proceeded to wait in the garden.

Once Alexander had walked off, Robin patted Elise’s hand persuasively. “You must keep this key to
yourself, alright? This is our gift to you, and it’s for you to maintain a confident self. You don’t have to
feel inferior to anyone else no matter what happens, and there’s no need to suffer in silence, alright?”

“Your grandpa is right. A girl with money in her hands will always have a way out if needed,” Laura
agreed too.

“I understand.” At that point, the tears welled up in Elise’s red-rimmed eyes. “Thanks, Grandpa and
Grandma. I’ll definitely maintain a good relationship with Alexander, and we’ll surely lead a happy life.
Hence, you guys don’t have to worry about me.”



“That’s really great and awesome. Go on, then—you’re newly married, so you should spend more time
with your husband.”
