Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 297 There Can Only Be One of Us,Coolest Girl in Town

The next day, Elise was shaken awake by a person while she was still dreaming, and that person was

none other than Addison. “Wake up, Elise. Someone came to deliver you a parcel and breakfast.”

Since Elise was not a person who liked to stay in bed, plus she wanted to know as well who had sent

her a parcel and breakfast, she got up. After opening the package, she saw a cell phone, which was

delicately wrapped, and a card with big, bold words written on it: ‘The SIM card is included. Call me

after receiving this.’ It’s from Alex! All of a sudden, she was touched, and her lips turned upward into a

smile by reflex.

Immediately, she gave him a call. “Have you had your breakfast yet?” A gentle voice echoed into her

ears slowly and reached all the way into her heart, which skipped a beat and turned even warmer.

“Didn’t you tell me to give you a call after receiving the parcel? Isn’t it good that I called you right

away?” “Yes, but I wish that you’d take care of your health first,” he said with a smile. Meanwhile,

Cameron, who came into Alexander’s office to deliver a document, was amazed at the sight. Ever since

Alexander announced that he and Elise were engaged, there had been more and more smiles on his

face.

The others always said that President Griffith has a ruthless personality and is decisive and aloof, but right now, he looks like he’s a very approachable person. “Okay, so I’ll have my breakfast first,” Elise

said, unable to mask the smile in her voice. “Sure.” “You must be speaking with that sl*t, Elise, aren’t

you?” The sharp voice carrying mean comments echoed into Alexander’s ears, wiping the smile off his

face and turning his expression stiff. “Mom, I’m already engaged to her, and she’ll be your daughter-in-

law in the future. How can you speak about her in this manner as an elder?” he grumbled unhappily

with his brows knitted. Madeline’s heels clicked on the floor as she came in, and she sneered, “It would

be better if she could be of some help to you, but what can she help you with?

At the ceremony last night, you totally lost your cool over a woman!” He already instructed someone to

block the news about what happened last night at the mathematics award ceremony, but he didn’t

expect that his mother would still find out about it. “Who will protect my woman if not me?” he rebuked

with a grim face. He would not allow anyone to slander Elise like this—not even his mother! “Well said!

Alexander Griffith, don’t you forget that I’m your mother, and I don’t agree to this marriage.

In addition, your grandfather had just passed away, so no wedding is to be organized for the next three

years to show your respect!” she argued stubbornly and stopped in front of him. “I know that, so you

don’t have to remind me in this way. Since you said that there would be no wedding allowed for the

next three years, then what about Maya?” Even though Alexander didn’t want to argue with her, her

relentless attitude was wearing his patience thin. “She’s my goddaughter and great in all aspects, be it

her family background or personality. So I’m sure she’ll be an amazing help to you if you’re with her.

Besides the fact that your grandfather was friends with Elise’s grandfather, what else does she have?”

Losing all his patience, Alexander sounded a little more frustrated as he said, “Mom, we’re already

engaged, and everyone in Athesea knows. Why are you saying such things? What will others think of

me if I go back on my word now?” “What will others think of you? Both of you are not actually married

yet, and you can always cancel an engagement.

I’ve never liked her to begin with, and even more so after what happened yesterday.” She then snorted

and continued, “Whatever it is, I came here to tell you today that there can only be one of us—either

me or her!” “Do you really want to push things to this extent?” Alexander’s face was stony, and his eyes

turned icy all of a sudden. The last thing he wanted was a confrontation with his mother. Seeing his

face, Madeline sniggered, but she was heartbroken on the inside. “I’m not the one who wants to push

things to this extent, but you’re the one who’s going against me.

We’re mother and son, and your father is just unreliable. Whose advice should you heed if not mine?

Regardless, I’m leaving my words here. If you insist on going against me, you can forget that I’m your

mother. Or else, I’ll definitely drive out this woman named Elise Sinclair and even make her disappear!”

To begin with, Madeline already didn’t like Elise, and especially after what happened last night, she

completely realized that she was nothing but a disaster! If they continue their relationship, the one who will be affected is Alex! she thought. Furthermore, Elise has never been honest from the beginning. Who knows what else she’s hiding behind her back?

“I dare you,” Alexander hissed through gritted teeth. When the words left his mouth, Madeline was

stunned, and she turned to him in shock, thinking that she had heard him wrongly. But when she saw

how steely he looked, she realized that everything was real—Alexander had really said something so

harsh to his own mother because of Elise. “Why wouldn’t I? Are you going to kill me if I really kill her?”
