Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 978

Jamie spent the night drinking to the point he had to be carried back to the bedroom.

Seeing him in a daze, Narissa walked over and tried to help him take off his coat so that he was more comfortable.

She had just reached out when the man suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed her by the wrist, his eyes seemingly on fire.

"You were pretending to be drunk?" Truth was, Narissa couldn't tell.

A sly smirk appeared on the corners of the man's mouth when he heard that. "I've been in the business industry for years now and yet, they tried to take advantage of me by getting me hammered. Do I look like a pushover?"

"Doesn't that sound amazing? But don't forget how you fell asleep on our wedding night. It seems to me that you… aren't all that." Narissa intentionally killed his ego a little.

Men could tolerate a lot of things, but not one of them could put up with having their abilities doubted.

"I'm not all that? Did you really just say that I'm not all that?"

Like a broken record, Jamie repeated his words twice before holding Narissa by her wrists and pressing her against the couch. "I shall demonstrate my abilities to you then!"

She smiled and struggled a few times, but when she realized that she couldn't push him away, she squinted as a dangerous light flashed in her eyes. "Are you trying to do it by force?" she warned.

Jamie, however, was completely oblivious to the impending danger as he thought that she was still playing along with the bickering. Instead of getting up, he closed in on her. "Last time was a mistake on my part. Tonight, I'll show you what a real man is."

"Okay, then. Show me what you're made of." Narissa's smile now seemed to hide malicious intent.

The two of them had been at loggerheads with each other from the first day they were acquainted. It never stopped even until now.

The person who showed cowardice now would naturally be the loser.

With the liquid courage that the alcohol was giving him, Jamie braced himself and pushed his face into the crook of her neck to have his way with her.

"Ouch!" He was gasping in pain with his hands over his abdomen while he fell on his knees the next moment.

Narissa then let out a contented smile. She had only put less than half of her strength into this kick, but it was enough to knock the breath out of the unsuspecting Jamie.

He was asking for it, anyway.

She had no problem laying her hands on him if he dared to get forceful with her. It was a competition to see who was more ruthless.

In short, she couldn't lose!

Jamie's face had flushed red. "You're actually serious!" he groaned.

"What were you expecting?" Narissa was like a child who had successfully pulled a prank.

Jamie gritted his teeth in anger. As his indignation welled up, he rushed forward again, only to be kicked by Narissa.

Falling over in shock, he looked at this side of Narissa he had never seen before and kept gulping.

Ariel shook her head. "I don't mind him cheating. It's not worth it living a lifetime, only to have bedded one person. I'm mad that he kept it from me for so long."

"Wait, I don't understand. So, what you're saying is… married couples don't have to be faithful?" Elise felt that her knowledge of this world had been swayed.

"Loyalty is a must but honestly, I grew up receiving foreign education. I don't care much about things like chastity. I might have been a little pissed, but it was only for a while. I am not an angry person by nature."

Ariel did speak like a foreigner, and she was as exaggerated as she was bold. However, her words weren't the most logical.

"So, what are you planning on doing?" Elise only picked up on the part she took notice of. "You're not mad, but you're not getting married either?"

"Oh, the wedding proceeds as planned, for sure." Ariel didn't even think before she answered. "But no matter what, messing around is a problem with one's principle. I'll need to ignore him for a few more days. What if I get my heart broken when he can't control himself after we're married? Just think of this as a way to keep the husband in check."

Elise didn't dare to agree just like that. "Are you sure you're keeping him in check, not the other way round? You're already out of your mind now. What do you think will happen to you in a few days?"

Ariel let out a bitter smile at that. "Hey, don't you know what 'girls help girls' means? You're making fun of me, huh?"

"My bad, my bad. Considering how you're a poor wife waiting for your husband, I'll pay the bill today. Get whatever you want."

"You said it! I won't hold back."

One of a woman's greatest joys was shopping, and the greater joy was shopping using other people's money.

With Elise buying her everything, Ariel felt as though her worries were gone in the blink of an eye. After Ariel went all out shopping, she finally found a place to take a rest. She had bought so many things that not even one booth could fit all her shopping bags.
