Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 490

Chapter 490 We Are Destined for Each Other

“Miss Sinclair!” Tom suddenly came out of nowhere, scaring Elise.

“What’s all this fuss about?” she asked with some annoyance.

“Machine No. 9 is now working on our gemstone. Do you want to take a look at it?” he questioned.

“Alright.” Upon hearing that, Elise nodded her head and went toward the place he specified.

“She’s here. That woman is here!”

“This is the gemstone she chose.”

“I’m surprised she actually dared to come. All the gemstones opened today came from the inner hall, except for hers. I wonder if there’ll be any surprises…”

“What? It came from the outer hall? Then I better look at the other machines.”

Less than a minute after Elise arrived, half of the people there were already gone.

To her, it was a good thing because the air was much fresher with fewer people.

Then, the gemstone master began to open her gemstone.

Not long after, Tom screamed, “I see green!”

Even the gemstone master couldn’t help but be surprised.

Immediately, the people who looked away were drawn by the commotion again as they stretched their necks to watch the action, wanting to know what good could come from that stone.

Ziggy, who was observing everything silently from afar, couldn’t help but concentrate on Elise’s stone.

Could it be that this woman really is the second God’s Chosen Girl? Can she really turn a stone into treasure?

Everyone’s eyes were locked onto the gemstone master’s hands, as if their eyes were the ones opening the gemstones instead of the tools.

Finally, the master opened the outermost layer of the stone, revealing its interior.

Everyone went silent for a moment.

“Hahaha…”

After a short silence, their laughter echoed across the hall.

“As expected, nothing good comes from the outer hall. What was I expecting?”

“Not only is its quality average, it also has impurities and broken layers. I wouldn’t take it even if it was free!”

“She is just an ordinary woman after all. I actually thought that there would be a second God’s Chosen Girl, but it seems like I was thinking too much. Serves her right for competing with Ziggy with this level of ability! I think that it’s possible that she is fond of Ziggy and was just finding an excuse to go to bed with him.”

The interior appearance of the gemstone that was lying on the machine was indeed imperfect.

However, Elise remained calm, as if she had expected the outcome.

As for Tom, he was so worried that he could feel his eyes falling off. The whole time, he kept on wiping away the cold sweat on his forehead.

This is bad! Miss Sinclair really knows nothing about stone gambling. She only won that stone gambling in Landred City entirely because of luck. Based on her ability today, she is no match against Ziggy, let alone his secret weapon!

“Miss Sinclair, y-you…” Tom stuttered as he didn’t know how to persuade her.

Should I find some local enforcements to help cancel the bet? Even though we’ll lose some money, I can’t allow a little girl like her to fall in the hands of Ziggy. Who knows what kind of torture she’ll have to endure? Maybe there’s still time to hire a professional stone gambler since today is only the first day!

However, Elise lifted her hand and patted her mouth as she yawned lazily. “What should I do? I’m feeling sleepy again.”

“Miss Sinclair, please stop joking around. The lunch break just ended…” Tom smiled bitterly.

Upon hearing that, she casually patted his shoulder. “Don’t be so anxious. After I’m done recuperating, we’ll battle again. Are you confident in holding the fort by yourself?”

Seeing that she was walking away, the group of people quickly jogged over and followed her, since they were afraid of losing her.

Behind them, a slender figure followed suit silently.

Since they were some distance away from the hotel entrance and gradually walking into an ordinary street, the group of people prepared to find somewhere isolated to jump on her. However, Elise suddenly turned a corner into an alley next to her.

The man in front smiled smugly and paused for a moment before excitedly ordering his men, “Let’s go!”

She walked quickly in the alley and finally left those people some distance away. Then, she quickly ran into a corner and climbed up the beam along the items placed under the roof, ready to jump down when they walked past so that she could scare them.

Seeing her disappearing around the corner, the group of people sped up.

The man in front was very vigilant. When approaching the corner, he suddenly slowed down and raised the stick in his hand before slowly turning the corner.

When turning the corner, a man behind him suddenly bumped into him, pushing him directly onto the opposite wall.

Just as the leader turned around and was about to yell, he found that a man in a suit had appeared behind them at some point.

“Who are you? You better mind your own business!” The leader warned the other man.

Kenneth tidied his suit and hooked his fingers impatiently. “I don’t want to waste my time, so please come at me all at once.”

His words instantly enraged the thugs as they picked up their sticks that had fallen to the ground and viciously lunged at him.

However, Kenneth calmly lifted one of his feet and did a swirling kick on two thugs. His moves were utterly strong and deadly.

While waiting for the thugs to arrive, Elise felt strange when she heard noises of fighting instead, so she jumped down from the beam and casually walked back the way she came.

Meanwhile, Kenneth accurately sensed the figure approaching from the other end of the alley, so he kicked down one of the two thugs who was still standing. When the other person lunged at him with a stick, Kenneth didn’t avoid it and took the hit. In the end, he turned around and fell backward.

The moment Elise arrived, she instinctively caught the falling man.

“Miss Sinclair, do you now believe that we are destined for each other?”
