Chapter 152,Coolest Girl in Town

Elise’s ankle injury wasn’t all that serious. By the next day, she recovered. Coincidentally, it wasAlexander’s turn to send her to school today. “Thanks for yesterday. I owe you one. I’ll be sure to payyou back in the future when I get the chance to.” Alexander gave an evil smile as he looked at her.Those bottomless eyes of his were seemingly filled with boundless admiration. “Elise, I didn’t help youbecause I wanted something out of it. Why don’t you consider making this act real?” Elise wasstupefied by that. It felt like something was stuck in her throat, and she began to cough violently.

Her face was soon a brilliant red. “W-What kind of joke was that?” Alexander’s initially tense heartrelaxed at her words. He just wanted to test the waters, but it seemed that she didn’t feel that waytoward him, so he followed the flow of the conversation. “Just teasing. If you really feel like you oweme, just leave that debt be for now.” Alexander strode out as he spoke. Elise’s forehead was beadedwith sweat from confusion.

She just had the feeling that Alexander was being weird today. Right at that moment though, her heartalso calmed down from its frantic hammering after she heard his words. No one knew just howbewildered she had been just now; she even thought that her ears were playing tricks on her.Fortunately, she had good self-control, or she would have ended up making a scene. She muttered toherself, “This guy… He’s actually learned how to crack a joke.” When they arrived at school, Elise gotout of the car and waved at Alexander. “I’m going in. See you later.”

Alexander made an affirming sound, only leaving once he had seen her head inside. Not long afterthat, however, Jack parked his car in the same exact parking spot. Mikayla hurriedly undid her safetybelt. “Dar—” She nearly called him ‘darling,’ but she ended up holding her tongue right before she saidit. “Thanks for sending me to class, Jack, but I’m fine now. You don’t have to worry about this matter

either.” Jack hummed. “So long as you’re okay. If you don’t feel well, text me. Don’t force yourself toweather through it. If you feel sick, you must go to the hospital immediately.”

Mikayla’s heart was overfilled with joy as she listened to his instructions. “Got it. I’m going to classthen.” Although she was a little reluctant, Mikayla still opened the door and alighted from the car. Sheended up looking back several times with each step she took before she finally set foot on campus, stillreluctant to part with Jack. The moment she stepped inside the classroom, she caught sight of Elise,and she made her way over to her. “Elise, I’m sorry, but my phone was broken earlier. That’s why Ididn’t text you back.” Elise looked up and smiled.

“It’s fine!” But right after that, she noticed something different about Mikayla. “What happened to yourface?” Mikayla touched the tiny wound that still remained as she explained, “It’s nothing much. I justhad a small accident. Everything’s okay now.” Elise sighed at that. “What are the odds? We even gotinto accidents at the same time.” “What’s wrong? Did something happen?” Mikayla quickly asked. Eliselet out another sigh. “I went horse-riding yesterday and got thrown off my horse. Luckily for me, itwasn’t anything serious. I’ve recovered from the fall already.”

Having heard Elise say that, Mikayla promptly sat down. “Actually, I got hit by a car,” she whispered.Elise was startled. “Wait, what? You got hit by a car? When did that happen?” “It’s okay. It’s all in thepast now. But, do you know who hit me?” Mikayla had excitement written all over her face. It boggledElise’s mind. This was the first time Elise had seen someone not feel angry at all toward the personwho hit them with their car. In fact, Mikayla actually seemed rather happy. “Who was it?” Mikaylagiggled. “My husband, Jack.” Elise stared at her in bewilderment.

“He was the one who hit you?” Elise suddenly recalled that day when she called Jack. He had said thathe was at the hospital dealing with something. Was he there because he went to see Mikayla after hehit her? “Are you sure you’re okay? You’re not pulling my leg?” Elise asked in concern, but Mikayla

shook her head. “I’m perfectly fine. I’m doing great! In fact, I’m pretty happy. My body aches a bit, butI’m still happy. After all, I got closer to my husband because of this.” Groupies… They’re beyondsaving, Elise thought. “As long as you’re okay, I guess.

Nothing else matters then.” Mikayla didn’t share her opinion though. After spending the last few dayswith Jack, she felt that Jack was a nice person. Not only was he handsome, but he was also anabsolutely patient man. Most importantly, he had a sense of responsibility. He could have handed thesituation off to his assistant or his manager, but he didn’t. He even kept a close eye on her injuries, andhe would take time off to visit her in the hospital. In any case, Mikayla felt that Jack was an amazingman. I wonder who’ll be lucky enough to marry him in the future.

At that thought, her heart soured. She was already beginning to be jealous of the girl who would marryhim. …… Meanwhile at Orbis Entertainment, a fleet-footed man entered the room where Charlene wasresting. “These are the photos that were obtained while trailing Jack.” The man tossed an envelope toCharlene. Her lips curved up into a smile, her interest piqued. “Did you manage to snap anythinguseful?”

The man shrugged. “I made a huge discovery. Jack seems to be dating.” Charlene couldn’t stop herhands from stiffening the moment those words were said. She then asked, “You’re serious?” The mangestured for her to open the envelope. “The proof is in your hands. The girl’s still a high school studenttoo. She most likely isn’t of age yet. Jack’s tastes are rather special.” Charlene opened the envelope. Itwas filled with photos of Jack during his time with Mikayla at the hospital, and there were also photos ofhim dropping Mikayla off at school. “Were these photos taken at… a hospital?”

The man smiled maliciously. “Exactly. A hospital. Tell me, what would an unmarried man and girl bedoing at a hospital?” Charlene’s gaze met his. “Don’t tell me—an abortion?” The man waved a hand

after those words left her. “I don’t know the reason, but the media might be interested in probingdeeper. No one can control exactly how rumors spread, but public opinion? That can be completelycontrolled, no? Who knows. Maybe this bit of info would be enough to destroy Jack.”

Charlene smirked. “That’s how the entertainment industry works. We can certainly make good use ofthis, but that’s not the main thing I wanted. Did you not manage to snap anything else?” The manleaned forward and smiled. “Charlene, I’ve only been trailing him for a short while before I managed todrop off such juicy info. You’re not even giving me any credit for my legwork. You gotta compensate mefor this, no?

Some ‘motivating’ compensation so that I stay motivated to keep digging.” All at once, Charleneunderstood. She got up and reached a hand out, pulling the man closer by his neck and kissing him.The man had a look of enjoyment on his face. Instantly, he stopped being a passive enjoyer and tookcontrol of the situation. Soon, the room got steamier…
