Coolest Girl in Town, Chapter 423
Even Trevor was starting to warm up to Claude, and the whole family looked merry. Well, everyone except Alexander.
Ever since Elise came to the table, she would glance at Alexander. She noticed his, silence, so she gave him some food. “Here. It’s your favorite.”
Alexander looked at his bowl, and his frown disappeared. He paused for a moment before he started to eat, but he looked at Claude coldly.
Claude met his gaze, and he knew Alexander was mocking him, but all he did was smile, as if he didn’t care about Alexander. Fortunately, none of them got into any argument, so dinner went relatively well.
After the servant came and cleared the table, Claude stood up and stretched his arm, then he huddled closer to Elise. “Where will I be staying tonight, Elise?” he asked.
“Third room on the right in the backyard,” Elise said calmly.
Claude craned his neck. “Where are you staying then?”
“Second room on the left,” Elise answered impatiently.
“Who’s in the first room?” he asked again.
Elise gritted her teeth, but she said nothing.
“That’s my room,” Trevor raised his voice. “You got a problem with that?”
“Of course not.” He grinned and wrapped his arm around Trevor’s neck, then he whispered something into his ear.
“Good to hear.” Jeanie looked at him approvingly. He’s a friendly one, but not good enough to be Elise’s husband.
Claude didn’t mind. He took Trevor away and had a hushed talk. When they came back, Claude gave him two bottles of meds.
After Elise was done performing acupuncture on Joseph that night, Alexander took her back to her room. The moment they came to her room, the door to the right room suddenly opened, and Claude came out. “Oh, back from your date, Elise?”
“Why are you here?” Elise asked. This room is the furthest one from the front yard. It’s quiet and spacious. It’s supposed to belong to Grandma and Grandpa.
“I managed to move in. Charisma talks.” He looked up arrogantly and smirked at Alexander.
And Alexander stormed off angrily.
