Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 716
“You know how to modify motorcycles?”
Jamie’s interest had been piqued.
“Does this mean Boss does as well? Come on, tell me some stories from you
and Boss’ younger days.”
Narissa got to a random window seat that she found and after sitting down, she
started flipping through the menu.
“Are you interested in El or me?” she scoffed.
Enter title…
She came to a pause then as she warningly lifted her gaze from the menu to
him.
“You do remember that El is a married woman, yes?”
Jamie’s eyes immediately got dim after he heard her words.
Even his expression had started looking unnatural as he put the helmet at the
side of the table.
Seeing him fall silent made Narissa smile contently.She turned to the waiter and
hooked her finger to gesture for him to come take her order.
“This, this and this.I don’t want these three items.Bring me everything else.”
Jamie’s eyebrows shot up at that.
“Can you finish everything you ordered?”
Aren’t women supposed to have an appetite as small as a bird’s? Why is it
different for this woman?
“What? Are you actually upset because I’m ordering?”
She narrowed her eyes dangerously at him.
“I am just worried you will end up with a stomach ache.Get anything you want.”
He got up from his seat while he buttoned up the front of his suit jacket.
“I will have a black coffee with a bit of milk.No sugar.That is all for me”
Jamie headed to the washroom after that.His coffee came around the same
time as the food Narissa ordered was served.
An evil grin began to appear on her face after she peered at the coffee a few
times.She then extended her hand and moved the coffee in front of her…
After Jamie came back from the washroom, he sat down and automatically
brought the cup of coffee to his lips.
As soon as he took a sip of it, he spit it out with an agonized expression on his
face.
“F*ck, what is this? Why the hell is it salty?!”
The strange taste that lingered in his mouth made him stomp his feet.
“Pfft!”
The woman in front of him suddenly burst out laughing.
“I dare you to call me weak again! Serves you right!”
“You d*mn woman—”
Jamie was so enraged he would have gone off on her if it wasn’t because of
Elise’s sake.He swallowed his anger and forced a smile then before he
squeezed out his next words through his teeth.
“You are evil.”
“Prick,” she childishly mocked him.
“Wretch,’ he rebutted.
“Cheapskate!”
She rolled her eyes bitterly.
“Cheapskate?!”
Jamie jumped to his feet and his anger finally reached its peak.
“I set aside a business that could have brought in tens of millions, go here and
there with you, make sure all your demands are met, and even missed my
favorite car racing for you.Yet, you are calling me a cheapskate?!”
Realizing that she had gone overboard with her joke, Narissa timidly gulped
before she somewhat apologetically muttered, “I’m sorry.I know I don’t think
things through before I speak.Don’t take this to heart.I only spoke like that
because I thought we were getting close…Anyway, I am sorry”
She was chewing on her lower lip as she sincerely apologized.She had even
stopped eating and had obediently leaned back against the backrest of the
chair.
Jamie only continued to look down upon her with an indifferent expression.
It was impossible for her to know what he was thinking at the moment.
The air was getting more and more awkward and suffocating until he suddenly
sat down on his chair again.
After a few seconds, he chuckled devilishly.
“I scared you, didn’t I? Oh—you are easy to deal with.I fooled you! We will see if
you still behave so arrogantly after this!”
Hearing this, Nairssa immediately realized that she had fallen for his prank.
“How dare you play tricks on me!”
She grabbed a fork and poked it in his direction.
“Hey, hey.”
He pointed at the fork and gravely warned, “That was a joke.Don’t get all
serious now.There will be a price to pay even if we are both Boss’ friends.”
Still enraged, Narissa plunged her fork into the dessert in front of her, and then
aggressively shoved it into her mouth as she glared at him resentfully.I will get
“Good day, everyone.My name is Ekaterina Miiyagi.The judges have told me to
go on an extra round with Miss Abby Mellor, but [ don’t agree.Our works should
already have been judged.I don’t understand why we need to go another
round.”
The girl had a proud attitude as she spoke, though her sentences were
ungrammatical.Her name, unique to the locals, was proof that she was from
Rosepeak, an entirely different country.
For someone of her identity to criticize the fairness of the competition was a
strange thing to do—it was as if she was saying that Cittadelians were sore
losers.
As soon as she said those words, the audience immediately erupted in anger.
“What gives you the right to take part in a competition for Cittadelians, you
Rosepicker?!”
“Who cares what your name is.Get the hell out of our country, Rosepicker!”
“How dare a Rosepicker talk about fairness when your people have been
stealing our culture? Do you think you can walk all over us just because we
have been keeping quiet?”
Ekaterina didn’t shrink from the intimidation at all.
She kept her head held high as she retorted, “Embroidcry has a long history.It is
debatable whether or not it is a culture exclusive to Cittadel.But what I am sure
of today is that the best embroider in Cittadel has been defeated by me!”
Her words had managed to anger the entire crowd.
A few men from the audience were about to rush on stage to beat her up,
prompting the security personnel at the event to step forward and keep the men
under control.
The emcee of the event was standing with the judges when he unwillingly
shouted into the microphone, “Be quiet if you are a Cittadelian.Don’t do
something that will make others look down on us!”
Among all the commotion, Elise noticed Abby secretly wiping away her tears
while standing in a corner.
Elise and Alexander briefly exchanged glances before they started walking
toward her.
“Abby?”
She lightly patted the young girl on her shoulder.
“Miss Sinclair.”
The tip of Abby’s nose began to sting when she saw Elise, and her tears quickly
rolled down her cheeks again.
“I am sorry.I’m sorry, Miss Sinclair.I have let you down.I lost…”
