Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 241
Elise replied, âThanks for your reminder, Mrs. Griffith, but you donât seem to know your son very well. His views might not be similar to yours, so what you said today didnât crush my determination to stay with him. Instead, it strengthened my resolve. Iâm a bit tired, so Iâll be going upstairs for a rest. You should rest early, too.â With that, she turned around and left, her back straightened. Madeline looked sullen, her face livid with anger as she was left alone in the living room. What gives this country woman the nerve to stand up to me? she thought. Then, she took out her cell phone and made a phone call, saying, âHey, Maya, itâs me!
Are you free tomorrowâŚâ ⌠When Elise returned to her room, all her disguises vanished at once, leaving only a despondent look on her face. Back when Jonah was still in the Griffith Residence, she seemed to have nothing to worry about. But now, Madeline was telling her outright to back out and not ask for the moon. But was there room for turning back at this point right now? The next day, Elise got up early in the morning. She had promised Brendan to go to his studio today to help him, so after having breakfast, she had the chauffeur drive her to his studio right away without waking anyone else.
Brendan was somewhat surprised to see her. âWhat brings you here so early in the morning, Elise?â he asked. Elise raised her eyes to look at him as she replied, âWell, it happens that Iâve got nothing else to do, so I decided to come early. Is my office still where it was?â âYeah, I cleared out a large space for you around here. Let me show you the way.â Elise hurriedly followed Brendan all the way to the end of the corridor before he stopped and pushed the door open.
Coming into view was a large room that had several mannequins wearing wedding dresses of different styles placed at the door in various postures. âThis is where youâll be working during your summer break. Take a look at it. Do you like it?â Brendan asked. Elise entered the room and looked around before walking up to the French window. As she gazed out of the window, she had a panoramic view of the incredibly beautiful scenery in the distance. âWhat a beautiful place this is! Itâs simply a pleasure to work here.â Brendan chuckled at her words.
âI just knew youâd like it. In that case, this room shall belong to you.â Elise gave him a smile in return. âDonât worry, boss! Iâll do my best at work.â Brendan replied, âAlright then. Go ahead and get busy. Tell me right away if you need anything.â With that, he left the room, leaving Elise alone in the spacious office. As Elise looked at the colored pencils and drawing papers before her, she suddenly had a brilliant inspiration in her mind. Therefore, she sat down, picked up the pencils, and started drawing the outlines. As it turned out, Elise was a workaholic who couldnât tear herself away from her work once she was absorbed in it.
It was already 12PM, and the other staff members in the studio had gone for lunch, yet the door to her office was still tightly closed. When Brendan went out of his office, he subconsciously darted a glance at Eliseâs office. Then, he went over and knocked on her door. âEliseâŚâ Elise was still drawing designs, and she asked without even looking up, âAnything?â Brendanâs eyes were full of amazement when he walked up to Elise and saw the completed drawings on her desk. âDid you draw all of these in one morning?â âUh-huh,â Elise mumbled in response.
