Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 451

Chapter 451 Tickets to the Black Market

Joseph hesitated for a moment. Seeing that Elise wasn’t saying anything to stop him, he said with a nod, “I’ll think about it.”

Danny jumped with excitement. “Oh, yeah! Please be sure to think this over! I was afraid that you wouldn’t think about it, you know?” he said. After a moment, he collected himself and said unflinchingly, “Come on, I’m ready. Whatever the test is, bring it on!”

“Hmm.” Joseph frowned slightly. “Firstly… get out of my room.”

Danny’s overflowing enthusiasm was quenched at once. “Huh?”

“You idiot.” Elise slapped the back of Danny’s head from behind. “He’s now a patient who needs rest. You want to see him being sickly all the time?!”

“Oh, yeah, that’s right!” Danny ducked his head while nodding vigorously. “Well, in that case, I won’t be bothering you anymore, Mr. Fuller. Just tell me if you need anything. Starting from today, I’m at SK Group’s disposal. Just put me wherever you need me to be!”

Joseph was speechless; he didn’t expect Danny to be so good at talking. With an awkward look of embarrassment on his face, he said, “I’ll remember you.”

Danny clenched a fist in front of his chest and made an encouraging gesture to cheer Joseph on. Facing Joseph, he thumped on his chest before leaving the room in a solemn manner.

At the sight of the scene, Joseph’s eyebrows twitched continuously. He began to wonder if he had made a wrong decision.

Elise gave Joseph a sympathetic look. Then, she closed the door and left as well.

Meanwhile, Danny was hopping and leaping around like a rabbit in the courtyard, giving Alexander no peace.

Alexander shook his head. “When will you behave more like an adult?” he asked, before walking toward Elise. “Ellie, what kind of medicinal ingredients do Grandma and the one in there need to recuperate? Just make me a list. The black market will open in the suburbs tonight, so I’m gonna buy them back.”

“Is the black market coming to Athesea too?” asked Elise.

“Uh-huh.” Alexander nodded. “It’s been 13 years since it last opened. You’re lucky.”

“Yeah, that’s true,” Elise agreed.

Danny’s hope, which had just been kindled, was extinguished at once. In an instant, he lost heart completely.

“It’s okay,” Elise replied calmly. “It’s not that dangerous. As it happens, I also want to visit an old friend at the black market, so I can take Danny with me while I’m at it. And besides, you’ve forgotten something; I’m not one of those damsels who live a pampered life and never need to fend for themselves.”

Alexander had no choice but to relent. After all, he could say no to anyone except Elise. “Okay, you may go there, but we have to agree on a few rules. You must stay within my sight and be no further than one meter away from me at all times. Also, you must always listen to me,” he said with a serious look on his face.

“Okay,” Elise said. It’s always been like this as long as he’s present, anyway.

Alexander nodded. However, upon seeing Danny, whose eyes almost popped out of his head in excitement, he resumed a stern countenance. “Don’t get too excited about it yet. I’m going to make calls now. If I can only get one ticket, you’re gonna stay at home!” Then, as Danny watched bitterly, he calmly took out his phone and stepped aside to make phone calls.

Danny smacked his lips in vexation. When he looked back, though, he saw Elise sending a text message with her head down. The message read, ‘Get me some tickets to the black market.’
