Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 772

Chapter 772 I’ll Kick All of You Out of This House

Just like that, Danny successfully stayed in the car by making his skin thicker than a wall.

Their journey to the company continued in silence. As soon as Ariel stepped into the company, she was surrounded by assistants and employees alike.

“Miss Whitney, your signature is required on this document.”

“There is a meeting in 15 minutes.”

“The revised plan of the project department has been sent to your email. There are still some details that I would like to add in during our face-to-face discussion. Also—”

“Stop,” Ariel instructed the crowd. She then turned to look at Danny and Helios, who were both standing at the door. The duo had the same relaxed expression on their faces.

“You.” She raised her eyebrows in their direction.

“Me?” Danny pointed at himself with an innocent expression.

“Yes,” she answered curtly. “Keep an eye on Helios. I give you permission to not attend the meeting.”

Danny was about to refute by saying that he was a self-motivated man but instead of giving him a chance to speak, Ariel brought her bunch of minions into the office after she told him what she needed to say.

As the door closed, it seemed to divide them into two worlds, just like how their relationship now was. It might seem calm, but there was an invisible wall between them that Danny couldn’t seem to knock down.

As he thought of this, he became depressed and involuntarily let out a sigh.

Helios looked at Ariel’s office, then turned back and set his eyes on Danny before he uttered those words too mature for a boy his age. “Do you have designs on my Aunt Ariel?”

Hearing that, Danny glanced down at the boy, then turned to continue looking through the glass. While he gazed at Ariel who was in her office affectionately, he dismissively nagged, “Children shouldn’t butt into adults’ business.”

“Okay, then.” Helios spun around and left. “I was going to help you with pursuing her. Looks like I’ve gotten ahead of myself.”

“Hey!”

Danny quickly turned toward Helios and grabbed the boy by his collar, forcing him to turn around and face him.

“Let go of me!” Like a frightened porcupine, Helios swung his small hands around and yelled, “I am going to call Aunt Ariel! I’ll have you know that my aunt has a black belt in Taekwondo!”

Despite the threat, Danny leaned over with interest as the corners of his mouth lifted into a haunting smile. “It looks like you know your aunt well, dear Helios. How about being my wingman, and I will be your magic lamp?”

“What is a magic lamp?” Helios instantly stopped making a fuss after sensing something good coming his way.

“Have you never heard of such a popular fairy tale? Simply put, it can make three of your wishes come true. You can tell me whatever you want as long as it is within my capability to fulfill it,” Danny said confidently.

“Deal!” A joyful smile blossomed on the boy’s face. “My first wish would be to meet the world’s greatest hacker, H!”

“H?” Hearing his first wish made Danny stumped. “You little brat! What are you looking for a hacker for?”

“Stop being nosy,” Helios haughtily complained. “You said I can have anything I want. Is it because you can’t do it? If you lie to me, I will speak ill of you to Aunt Ariel!”

“Hey, you punk! You are turning your back on me just like that?” Danny had a helpless look on his face.

He is Ariel’s nephew all right. They both are hard to fool.

“You said it yourself that H is a super hacker. It will be difficult to find someone so elusive. I will try my best to find this person for you, okay?” Danny proposed a compromise.

However, Elise didn’t even need to reconsider as she unhesitantly embarrassed her father. “Go ahead and find someone who will cooperate and be your daughter, then.”

“You are a hopeless case! Just how is someone like you my daughter? How am I supposed to explain to the outside world about the child you suddenly have without a wedding? Do you want the entire White Family to lose our faces along with you?!”

Onyx finally tore off the hypocritical mask he had on, his real face having selfishness and philistinism written all over it.

Nothing, not even his own daughter’s feelings, could compare to the household’s reputation.

“If you can’t explain it, don’t. Only silly people care about the silly words that those silly people yap about. You are a talented man who has studied all over the country and even abroad. You can’t even tolerate something like that?” Elise’s words were filled with underlying thorns.

Even after hearing that, Onyx still tried to get through to her with patient words. “It is exactly because I know and have experienced more than you that I am here teaching you how to handle this. Gossip can be terrifying and rumors can be lethal. Do you still not understand after experiencing it first-hand at the book signing event? I am your father. I won’t do anything to harm you.”

“I know better than you who is helping or harming me.” Elise’s eyes unwavering peered at him. “Anyway, it is final—there will be no wedding. I will do what I want.”

She then turned around to head upstairs after saying that.

“Stop right there!” Onyx roared like a wild beast.

Still, she was indifferent about his outburst. Her every move that followed was determined, and it was as though she hadn’t heard a word from her father.

“Okay! Fine, then! You ignore everything I am saying for your own good. You have a mind of your own now, don’t you? If that is the case, pack up your things and get out of this house! At least that will save me the trouble of having to clean up after your mess when reporters start coming for you here!”

Hearing this, Elise stopped in her tracks, her fingers tapped on the handrail of the stairs in irregular intervals. After a while, she turned around and looked down at him with a smile on her face.

“You are trying to kick me out so that you can take all of my mother’s inheritance, aren’t you? Unfortunately, my dear father, I have already done my checking. It is my name that is written on the title deed. It is not a question of whether you can kick me out or not. You should be more worried that I will get rid of you, your wife, and her daughter out of this house anytime you get on my nerves.”
