Chapter 375 Rise From the Dead, Coolest Girl in Town

"It looks like you're planning to spare Jeremy's life for the time being?" Alexander mentioned. "That's not true!" Elise frowned as she tried to recall when she had said that. Meanwhile, Alexander lifted his head to stare at her, his dark eyes glimmering as he revealed a slight smile. "Or perhaps you are of the opinion that your fiancé would really let the entire Griffith Family's fortune go down the drain?" Elise caught on to his words right away. Alexander had the utmost confidence that he could keep the Griffiths from bankruptcy. In that case, she had no excuse to go up against Jeremy, which meant his life would be spared. Just then, Elise furrowed her brows into a thin line and she frustratedly replied, "I've overlooked that."

At that point, Alexander lifted his hand to ruffle her fluffy hair. "It's alright. A stunning girl with a boyfriend wouldn't need to lift a finger to seek revenge." Stunning girl?! In all honesty, Elise felt that Alexander was exaggerating. After all, once someone like her takes offense against a person, she would definitely go after the other party's life. She held her grudges, and did not forgive nor forget. Only Alexander could choose to go against his conscience and turn a blind eye to that. Elise's expression was serious when she removed his hand and teased, "President Griffith, it's not right to judge someone by wearing blinkers."

Alexander smiled in response. Then, he naturally took her hands and wrapped them around his waist so she seemed to be hugging him by default. Soon after that, he reached out and pulled her into an embrace using his long arms. "I can't help it when I'm faced with you." He didn't plan to change either. It was a natural instinct to be biased toward someone you love. Elise felt her face flush red and it felt as if there was a magical spell that had been cast on her, so she didn't dare to move a muscle. The two of them remained in an embrace for quite some time until the elevator doors from nearby opened and a middle-aged couple in their forties walked out of the elevator.

They stared at the hospital room nearby for a short while before heading in their direction. "It's here." The woman glanced at the room number and agitatedly pinched her husband's arm. Elated, both of them exchanged looks with each other before she reached out to push the door handle. "Stay right there!" Elise hollered at them. The tenderness in her eyes disappeared and she became quite wary. "Who are you?" She had clearly seen the gloating look that flashed across the duo's faces. They had a calculative and greedy expression and almost instantly, she was on her guard.

The woman's smile stiffened upon being interrupted and she scrutinized Elise for a short while before speaking up exasperatedly, "We're the patient's family members. Who are you anyway?" "Oh? You're the family members?" Elise expressionlessly raised her left eyebrow as she started to study the duo carefully. The Sinclairs did not have many relatives but the familial ties were quite strong between family members, so Elise could remember each of them clearly. However, these two were the exceptions. From her memory, this duo had never appeared before. She noted their appearance and saw that they were dressed quite ordinarily. Perhaps they're very distant relatives that we hardly ever see.

Just as Elise was feeling quite perplexed, the middle-aged man, who had remained silent all this while, walked forward and stood protectively in front of the woman. Subsequently, he spoke arrogantly. "I'm the patient's son, Joshua Sinclair, and we're here to visit my mom. What are you two up to anyway? Why are you behaving shiftily by the doorway to my mom's room?" Elise noticed his indignant look and she couldn't help bursting into laughter. Did he rise from the dead? These imposters are so unprofessional! They should at least replace out our family background properly. Indeed, Laura had a son but he had passed away more than ten years ago and he was no longer alive.

These two must have gotten the news of Laura's critical condition, so they had rushed to the hospital to claim a share of the Sinclair family fortune. Meanwhile, Joshua found Elise quite strange and he frustratedly spat out, "You're a lunatic..." After saying that, he placed a hand on his wife, Maureen's, shoulders and reached out his other hand to push the door handle. Just then, Elise instantly reacted to that and she moved forward to grab Joshua's hand. She easily grabbed him and she pushed him against the wall by the room. "Oh my god! Where did this lunatic come from? Help! Is there anyone there? There's a lunatic here assaulting us! Hel-" Maureen immediately yelled out for help as soon as she saw her husband get into trouble.

However, Elise only glared at Maureen, thereafter covering the latter's mouth with her hand. Maureen then stood still in place with a frightened expression on her face, but she didn't dare to utter another word. "Let go of me! Who are you to stop me? Is it now a crime to perform my duties as a son by visiting my sick mom?!" Joshua had half of his face pressed against the wall and he complained loudly. Just then, he glanced sideways and noticed Alexander, who was dressed immaculately, by the side and he growled at him, "You must be this lunatic's family, right?

Hurry up and grab her off me! I'm warning you if I get hurt, you won't be able to get away with this lightly!" However, Alexander had a resigned look on his face. She just promised me that she wouldn't easily get into a fight, but it's just been a couple of minutes and she's already broken that promise. This is tough... He stood leaning against the wall with a difficult expression and he seemed quite lost as to what to do. "I do sympathize with your encounter but unfortunately, I'm no match for her. She's very good at fighting and she has some money too. If I help you right now, what if she comes after me after this?" "What's there to be afraid of? I'm here, and I can guarantee your safety.

Our family's rich so once you save me, I'll arrange for my men to come and take care of her immediately!" As soon as Joshua said that, Elise tightened her grip from behind, causing him to moan from the pain. "This darn girl is so strong! Maureen, hurry up and call security!" "Sure!" Maureen nodded her head earnestly and turned around to head downstairs. Suddenly, a large hand stopped her from the side. Alexander stood overbearingly and stared at her. The warm expression from his face had completely disappeared and his expressionless, dark eyes made one reluctant to approach him. Maureen gulped upon sensing his oppressive aura.

The corridor was considered to be quite wide but when faced with Alexander, she did not think that she could ignore his presence and run past him. She glanced at him with a terrified look before turning to stare at her husband, who was moaning painfully. Out of desperation, she turned around and opened the door to the room and she yelled as she rushed inside, "Mom, help us! Mom!" At that point, a look of annoyance flashed across Elise's eyes and she quickly changed her posture and forced Joshua's arms behind his back. Then, she marched inside with him in tow.

Laura was a light sleeper, so she was jolted awake by Maureen's yells. Dazedly, the former opened her eyes and as soon as she saw the person by her bed, a spark of anger appeared in her cloudy eyes. "Mom, there's a lunatic outside who's about to kill Joshua! Hurry up and get some help!" At that moment, Élise marched into the room with Joshua in tow. Meanwhile, Joshua instantly went down to his knees as soon as he saw Laura. "Mom, your unfilial son is back!" Laura's brows were tightly furrowed but she didn't respond to his words. On the other hand, Elise had assumed that these two were imposters, so she pushed Joshua toward Alexander and moved forward to grab Maureen so that she could throw them out of the room. "Mom!

Mom, say something! It's fine if you refuse to see me but what about your grandson? Don't you want to see him?" It was only at the mention of her grandson that Laura finally reacted. "Let them stay." Upon hearing that, Elise paused in her tracks and quickly released Maureen. Shortly after that, the former turned to look at Joshua, who was currently weeping badly. How can this guy possibly be Grandma's biological son?!
