Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 248

Chapter 248 New Neighbor, Coolest Girl in Town

“Haha! You’ve got quite the temper, huh? I like it.” The man took off his jacket and forcibly pounced on Elise. Elise was instantly filled with disgust, as if her stomach was churning. She kept struggling, but the other men came forward and pinned her down, so she couldn’t summon up her strength at all… Elise looked at the shabby roof above her head with her heart full of despair. As she slowly closed her eyes, a tear quietly rolled out of the corner of her eye… Bang! Just then, there was a loud bang, and Elise instantly opened her eyes. “Elise!”

Alexander called out to Elise loudly, but the scene before him caused his eyes to redden with rage. He strode forward and sent the man on top of Elise flying with a kick. Then, without the slightest hesitation, he took off his suit jacket and draped it on her. As Elise looked at the man before her through a mist of tears, feelings of grievance welled up inside her, and tears gushed from her eyes. Alexander’s heart ached terribly when he saw her like this.

“How dare you f*cking kick me? Guys, get him!” Alexander darted a cold glance at the men. He moved so swiftly that no one could see how he moved, and he knocked them flat in the blink of an eye. “F*ck, we can’t beat him! What should we do? Let’s run away…” The men quickly got up from the ground and ran to the door, only to see Brendan standing there with his back straightened. There was no warmth in his eyes as he folded his arms across his chest, saying, “Go on, keep running! Why aren’t you running?” The few men looked at each other for a while as they were at a loss for what to do.

At last, the man leading them quickly said, “Wait a minute, it’s all a misunderstanding! Please let us go this time. When we meet again in the future, I’ll definitely reward you for this.” Brendan’s lips curled up into a chilling sneer. “Misunderstanding? Reward? I’m afraid you’re not gonna have the opportunity anymore…” Before his voice faded, police sirens were heard wailing outside. “What do we do, bro? The police are outside. We have nowhere to run…”

Surprisingly, the leader of the group of men calmed down instead. “There’s nothing to worry about. We’re just gonna have a cup of tea at the police department. What else could happen, anyway? But today’s matter…” the man said before looking daggers at Brendan. “We’ll definitely kill you once we get out of the police department.” Brendan met the man’s gaze fearlessly, saying, “You’re not gonna have the opportunity anymore.”

When he finished his sentence, the policemen had arrived. The few men cooperated obediently when facing the policemen. After frog-marching the men into the police cars, a policeman came to Brendan and asked, “Did you call the police just now? Please come with us to have your testimony recorded at the police department.” Brendan looked at Elise nearby with worry in his eyes. Nevertheless, he cooperated with the police. “Alright, sir. I’ll be there right away.” It wasn’t until everyone had left that Alexander slowly crouched down and looked at Elise, who was trembling like a leaf before him.

With a look of pain in his eyes, he reached out and caressed her cheek. He whispered softly, “It’s okay. Everything’s fine now.” The next instant, Elise flung herself into Alexander’s arms, unable to hold back her tears. It didn’t take long before her tears formed a wet patch on his chest. “There, now. Nothing’s gonna happen since I’m here for you.” Elise slowly slipped out of Alexander’s arms while looking at him through a mist of tears. “Do you know I really was in despair at that moment? I was so scared…” Before she could finish her sentence, though, he leaned forward and silenced her with a kiss on her lips.

However, just as she was about to press the elevator button, Alexander suddenly reached out and grabbed her. Then, he took a key out of his pocket and opened the door to the apartment next door in an unaffected manner. “Hi! Nice to meet you, my new neighbor.” Elise was stupefied at the sight of the scene. Her mouth agape, she stared at the opened door, asking, “Y-You’re my new neighbor?” “So? Would you like to visit your neighbor’s new home?”

Elise’s eyes instantly flickered with a hint of surprise. “W-Why did you move out as well?” Alexander smiled before explaining with a look of resignation, “Well, my girlfriend wants to stay here. I’m worried since she’s staying alone, so I moved here to keep her company.” Elise looked at him as her face finally broke into a faint smile. She stepped forward, stretched out her hands, and hugged him. “Hi, my new neighbor.”

Alexander reached for her head and stroked her hair. He asked again, “Are you sure you’re not gonna visit my place?” Elise poked her head out and looked at the apartment. In reality, she was a bit curious about what Alexander’s apartment would look like, but they would be staying together in the same room in the middle of the night if she visited his place. Well… What if we start making out by accident?
