Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 802

Chapter 802 I Want Her

“No!” Having her weakness grasped, Adelpha immediately conceded. “Fine, I’ll endure it!”

“In that case, I won’t disturb your rest now. Goodnight and goodbye.”

Alexander didn’t even give her time to react as he escaped through the door as soon as he said those words.

“Alexander! Alexander!”

Adelpha took great pains to struggle free of the blanket. When she rose to her height, she only saw the tightly shut door. Only the empty room and silence responded to her.

“Hmph!”

She pummeled the blanket to vent her anger, and she was so pissed that her cheeks were puffed out.

…

After Alexander got out, the car finally started on the journey back.

After some time on the road, Thomas finally revealed the hidden diagnosis. “She’s probably six months into the pregnancy.”

“Hm.” Alexander looked ahead calmly while his black eyes looked even darker in the night.

Seeing how calm Alexander was, Thomas couldn’t help but be nosy. “Don’t tell me you did this before Elise left?”

“No.” Alexander’s answer was clear cut.

“It’s good, then!” Thomas let out a sigh. He didn’t want to offend Elise in any way, for he had to use this connection to learn from Claude.

“I want her, though.”

“What?!”

Alexander’s words were so shocking that Thomas didn’t know what to say for a moment.

He was exasperated as he commented, “Are you okay? Why are you ignoring all those rich and pretty ladies in favor of a pregnant woman? What’s more, you want to take care of the child? Aren’t you just giving yourself trouble?”

Alexander ignored him and changed the subject. “No matter what, I need to keep this child safe. You’ll be Anastasia’s maternity doctor from now on, so reject any other work if you can.”

“Are you out of your mind? Asking an all-round doctor like me to take care of just one patient? That’s too much! Also, Miss Anastasia has a husband, so how can I possibly help you snatch her from her husband? I have my own principles!” Thomas stubbornly raised his chin, reluctant to cooperate.

Alexander didn’t even shift his gaze as he lightly added a few more words. “I’ll pay more.”

Thomas immediately reacted, and when he turned back around, he was all smiles, evilly patting Alexander on the chest. “Oh, you don’t have to. We’re brothers, aren’t we? It’s my duty to help you out. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely make sure she’s yours!”

Alexander rolled his eyes in exasperation.

Adelpha lay on the bed for more than ten minutes, and as the seconds ticked by, she was even dizzier. As such, she decided to just get up and go downstairs to look for some medicine herself.

It was bad enough that Anastasia was bullying her, but now, even this man dared to shout and mock her. He didn’t respect her one bit.

Birds of a feather flock together. Men who fall for Anastasia can’t possibly be decent. If Alexander hadn’t gone back, he wouldn’t dare be so arrogant! Just you wait. Someday, I’ll make you two beg for mercy in front of me! No, it’s too passive to just wait. I have to think of a way to get Anastasia off her high horse. How should I do that, though? Anastasia came back from the dead, and she can even crawl back from the sea that swallows people. What can threaten her? Right!

Adelpha’s eyes lit up. The child! Ever since Anastasia returned, she’s been eating and taking good care of herself. She’s very concerned about the child in her tummy, so if she loses the child, she won’t be able to bear the shock. She’ll go crazy. After all, she went crazy when her mother died. Yes, I’ll do just that! If Anastasia turns crazy, no one will lord over me anymore!

Adelpha’s expression grew vicious as murderous intent appeared in the depths of her eyes. Her pale face looked even more twisted under the lights.

…

Two days later, Tissote’s Jewelry Association welcomed its new members.

As the only member who submitted an application, Celina sat on the left side of the vice-president, looking sprightly and confident.

Minutes had passed since the agreed time for voting to start. Seeing that the vice president was still motionless, Celina knocked on the table impatiently. “Don’t waste our precious time. Since everyone is here already, let’s start the voting session right away.”

Only then did the vice president reluctantly straighten his posture.

After a long sigh, he looked at the members seated at the table, saying heavily, “If so, you may cast your votes. Those who agree to Miss Celina joining the Jewelry Association, please raise your hands.”

Celina leaned back in her chair readily, waiting to savor the sight where everyone approved of her application.

However, as time ticked on, the smile on her face slowly froze along with the silent atmosphere.
