Chapter 449 Clearing the Place

Seeing that Elise wasn’t paying attention to him, Russel lost his temper at once. “Hey, what the hell is on

your mind? Didn’t you hear what I said? Didn’t you see how much pain Daniel’s in? What the hell are you

waiting for? Hurry up and cure him now!”

Elise tapped on today’s financial news in silence while still ignoring Russell. As she had expected,

Maxwell wasn’t only unwilling to pay the money; he was also secretly plotting to deal the Griffith Group

the finishing blow at the moment. He had even stretched his claws toward the Anderson Family; only he

hadn’t been found out for the time being since he had done so in a covert way. After pondering for a

moment, Elise picked up her phone and dialed a number.

“Who is it?” Nathan sounded quite irritated as he was roused from sleep.

Just as Elise was about to respond, Russell daringly made a lunge at her and snatched her phone away

directly. He said testily, “I’m talking to you! Did you hear me?”

As soon as he took her phone away, though, he met her eyes, which had appeared delicate and

beautiful to him at first glance. At this moment, however, her eyes were dark and gloomy and gleaming

with a strong murderous desire, as though she would go on a killing spree at any time.

Elise was half a head shorter than Russell, but she naturally projected a commanding aura even when

she wasn’t looking angry. Seeing the look in her eyes, Russell unconsciously gulped a mouthful of saliva

and silently put her phone back in place.

Elise shot him a chilly sidelong glance. Then, she went on and said to the other end of the line, “I’ve

found you a fun job to do, Nathan.”

Russell’s cloudy eyes instantly widened with astonishment when he heard Nathan’s name. Nathan?! Is

that the Nathan York that I know about? So the rumors are true that Elise and Alexander have a close

relationship with Nathan York! If the Andersons manage to establish a relationship with him, we’ll have a

divine hand in opening up the global market in the future, won’t we?

Unaware of the old devil’s scheming, Elise pressed her lips together, waiting for Nathan’s reply.

Nathan got out of bed and found a bath towel to wrap around his lower body. Then, he poured himself a

glass of wine and drank it. After breathing in with a hiss, he asked leisurely, “What’s the job?”

“Buying out the Dahlens’ family business,” replied Elise.

“No problem.” Nathan responded to her request without hesitation, but he bared his fangs soon

afterward. “As long as you give me the word, making any business in the country go bust or lose all its

capital is never a problem for me. Still, I can’t keep doing business at a loss, right? And besides, I’ve got

to answer to my clients.”

Elise seemed to realize what he was getting at. “What do you want?”

“That’s exactly what I like about you. You’re always so straightforward.” Nathan walked over to the

French window with his wine glass between his fingers. Looking down at the ground below, he continued

in earnest, “I want to meet with A in person.”

Elise didn’t want to take advantage of him, though. She reminded him kindheartedly, saying, “Are you

sure you’ll be able to answer to your clients after meeting with A? However capable A is, she’s just a

human being.”

However, Nathan replied with conviction, “Well, just as no one will turn down a dinner with Warren

Buffett, I believe that a meeting with A will be worth more than its price.”

“Alright then. I’ll help introduce you to her when this matter is over,” Elise replied.

“Okay.” Nathan threw his head back and gulped another sip of his red wine. After smacking his lips, he

said confidently, “It won’t take long.”

Elise hung up right away without continuing the conversation.

“Yoyo?” Russell called ingratiatingly in a whisper.

Elise turned her head away in disgust. “Who are you calling Yoyo?”

“You, of course!” Russell stared at Elise, his eyes sparkling brightly. Then, he realized that he had called

her by the wrong name. Correcting himself at once, he said, “Oh, sorry, I was wrong. It’s Elise. Elise,

were you talking to Nathan York—the outstanding investment broker—on the phone just now?”

“What does that have to do with you?” Elise replied snappishly while raising an eyebrow.

Russell replied in a groveling manner, “How could that have nothing to do with me? We’re a family, after

all. From what I heard just now, you’re going to arrange a meeting between Nathan and your friend. In

that case, how about you reserve a place for me?”

“D-Dad…” The ignored Daniel sat up, baring his shoulder. With a look of resentment, he asked Russell

for help, urging, “Don’t forget about me. My leg can’t wait another minute!”

Only then did Russell come to his senses. He cleared his throat, saying, “Ahem! Well, uh, Y… Elise,

since you’ve started taking action against the Dahlens, why don’t you treat Daniel’s leg while you’re at it?

After all, he got himself into such a state after going to the Dahlens with the best of intentions to cure

Maya for you.”

Elise turned to look at Russell coldly. “For me, you say?” she asked. Then, she retorted, stressing each

word, “Did I tell him to take a bunch of quacks with him to diagnose her? Or did I tell him to administer

medicine and treatment carelessly despite knowing nothing about her illness? Are you sure I was the

one who told him to do all that?”

“Well…” Russell was instantly stumped for an answer. After being speechless for a long time, he finally

forced out an excuse. “B-But it was you who told Daniel to treat her! He only made the desperate move

because he had no other options left!”

“Oh,” Elise murmured in acknowledgment with an expressionless face.

“Oh?!” Russell’s lips twitched. “Is that all? Your cousin risked his life without hesitation for your sake.

Aren’t you even gonna say thanks to him?”

“Well, I’m not as good with words as you are.” Elise locked her phone’s screen and put her phone in her

trouser pocket. Then, with her hands in her pockets, she looked straight ahead, saying as if nobody else

was around, “I’ll cure the patient if I can, but if I can’t, I’ll admit that I can’t cure them. I won’t show off my

superiority or try to be a hero for the sake of trying to make myself look good. Besides, those who end up

hurting themselves by pursuing their own interests under the excuse of doing good to someone else

don’t deserve sympathy either.”

Suddenly, she thought of Alexander, and she lowered her head and smiled in self-deprecation.

“Moreover, my sympathy’s limited. I can’t afford to take care of every Tom, Dick, and Harry, right?” Well, I

have to avoid some risks and protect myself for somebody’s sake, after all, she thought. After a

moment’s thought, she said under her breath through her thin lips, “Throw all these people out.”

“How dare you do this to me, Elise?! I’m your uncle!” Russell protested as he struggled.

However, Elise merely plugged her ears with her index fingers. She said impassively, “What a racket in

the early morning!”

Daniel was left alone in the center of the yard. Seeing Russell being thrown out in a curve through the

air, he gulped a mouthful of saliva in fear and crawled outside, dragging his broken leg.
