Chapter 652

Chapter 652 Alexander, You're So Cool!

Tiana suddenly felt a deep sense of crisis welling up from the depths of her heart. It was just like the moment she saw Elise's face on the 'National Goddess' voting interface last night. This woman was probably her greatest nemesis.

While the others were still caught up in amazement, she quickly sorted out her emotions and pretended to look enlightened. "I can't believe I forgot about such an important thing! Teacher once told me before about the method of clipping and uncovering layers. Almost all the paintings that she sent for mounting would use this method. It's all my fault. I've recently been busy with the school competition while managing the Calligraphy Association. I must have been so busy that this slipped my mind. I'm so glad you reminded me about this, Miss Sinclair. Otherwise, teacher's artworks would have been destroyed." She gratefully extended her hand to Elise. "Miss Sinclair, I am truly grateful."

Elise couldn't help thinking that these words sounded strange somehow, but she could not pinpoint exactly what was weird. However, when she saw that Tiana was looking at her sincerely, she stretched out her hand and shook hands with Tiana. "You're welcome. I didn't do much either."

The smile on Tiana's face deepened. "You have such a unique perspective, Miss Sinclair. If my teacher were here, I'm sure she would make another exception and take in another student."

She only spoke those words out of courtesy. However, Elise grasped the opportunity to push her luck further and answered accordingly. "That's great! In that case, I'll have to trouble you to give me SQ's contact information, Miss Hill." I want to see just who is using my name to swindle others.

Tiana was visibly taken aback by those words. That was just a throwaway remark. Why is she taking it seriously?

"Miss Hill, is my request very troubling?" Elise deliberately pressured the other party.

"What is there to be troubled about?" Tiana forced herself to smile. "I'm the only one who knows my teacher's social media account. It's just that she generally does not like to be disturbed, so I'm worried that you might be disappointed by the results, Miss Sinclair." "You don't need to worry about that, Miss Hill," Elise replied without a change in her expression. "Even you have such a high opinion of me, Miss Hill. I'm sure SQ will not reject me either."

Tiana stared blankly at Elise's face for a few seconds, unable to shake off the ominous feeling in her heart. Why is Elise so confident that SQ will accept her friend request? Could it be that she has met SQ before? In that case, if I really do hand SQ's contact information over and the two of them meet, then won't the fact that I've been pretending to be SQ's student come to light?She decided to test the waters by handing over her secondary account after mulling over the problem. "Since you insist, Miss Sinclair, then I can only wish you good luck."

After saying that, she asked the staff member for a pen and paper. Finally, she wrote down the email for her secondary account and handed the note to Elise.

"Thank you, Miss Hill." Elise took the note and placed the note in her bag. After that, she nodded her farewell. "Well then, I'll be taking my leave now."

She then shot a look at Joey, and they left the exhibition hall together.

Joey followed behind Elise, muttering under her breath all the way.

She suddenly paused in her tracks and turned around to ask Joey once they exited the building, "What have you been muttering under your breath?"

"Nothing much." Joey lied without batting an eyelid. "I was thinking about what to eat for dinner. My mother eats according to the diet you gave her every day, forcing Daddy and me to eat those light and bland meals with her. I want to eat something different tonight. Will you cook for me, Elise?"

Elise sighed in resignation. "It's easy to get indigestion if you eat too heavily seasoned meals at night. It will make you fat. Keeping in shape is a girl's goal in life. You can't relax, not even for a single day. Do you understand?"

"Fine. For the sake of beauty, I can only sacrifice my little tummy." Joey leaned over and grabbed Elise's arm as she said playfully.

Elise had once mentioned that she did not wish to interfere with the 'National Goddess' voting process. Therefore, Joey could not let Elise discover that she had been secretly investigating the matter.

The two of them laughed and chatted with each other by the side of the road, waiting for Alexander to come and pick them up.

It didn't take long before a black van pulled up beside them. The car door opened, and two men in black suits and sunglasses got out of the car to greet Elise respectfully. "Miss Sinclair, the lady would like to invite you over for tea." "Who is this lady you speak of?" Joey deliberately acted like she was not to be trifled with, and she shoved Elise protectively behind her after she stepped forward.

"Our invitation is extended only to Miss Sinclair. So, you do not need to know." The man who spoke did not fall for those tricks, focusing only on Elise. Instead, he leaned sideways to face the opened door and made an inviting gesture. "This way, please, Miss Sinclair." "What if I refuse?" Elise crossed her arms in front of her chest. "She wants to meet me but does not even dare to tell me her name. Does your mistress think that I'm an insignificant ant that would come and go as I'm told?"

The bushy eyebrows on the man's face furrowed together slightly, and a noticeable change came over the aura around his entire body. There was a moment of silence. Then, he reached out to grab Elise to forcibly drag her into the car. Before he could lay his hands on Elise, the sound of urgent footsteps rang out behind them. The two men turned around vigilantly. Before they could get a clear glimpse of that person's appearance, both were kicked in the chest and collapsed to the ground.

"Is my wife somebody you can touch just because you want to?" Alexander stood on the curb, looking down on them from above. His eyes were brimming with coldness.

"Alexander! That was so cool!" Joey raised both hands and gave him a thumbs-up gesture.

Elise watched the simple but crude scene unfolding in front of her just now. The speculation that she had suppressed for a long time flooded her mind again. This method of solving problems is not Alexander's style. It's more like Kenneth to do this.

Alexander was refined down to his very bones, and every action he took was calm and controlled. On the other hand, Kenneth was so lawless that even the Gods could not stop him once he lost his temper. She had clearly caught a glimpse of Kenneth's shadow at that moment, and the realization made her all the more stressed. She sighed as she clutched her chest.

Alexander was keenly aware that she wasn't herself. Hence, he hurriedly walked over and steadied her. Then, he asked in concern, "Ellie, what's wrong? Did you get hurt?"

While speaking, his pitch-black eyes surged with murderous intent.

"I'm fine." Elise shook her head. "It might be that I didn't get enough rest last night. Forget about them; let's go back first."

"Alright, let's go back first." Alexander coldly glanced sideways at the two men crawling on the ground. Only then did he escort her to his parked car on the opposite side of the road.

Upstairs, Tiana watched the entire scene from afar. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly at the sight. Elise sure has many people around her to protect her. As things stand, I won't have the chance to interrogate her about SQ. But it doesn't matter. SQ has never shown herself before. Elise might not actually know her, and I might just be overthinking things. She outshines me in every way. I hope I never run into her again.

On the other side, Alexander was driving. He took a shortcut near the Science and Technology Museum to send her back to the courtyard house. When they rounded the corner and entered an alley, Elise saw a red luxury sports car by the side of the road in the opposite direction out of the corner of her eye. Craig was hugging a woman with an ample bosom. Their bodies were pressed closely together. It was easy to tell that their relationship was pretty unusual at a glance.
