Chapter 172,Coolest Girl in Town

As soon as Elise walked out of the school gates, she noticed the familiar-looking car parked in front

and walked toward it immediately. Then, she tapped on the car window, which was then gradually

wound down. Alexander was slightly surprised as he asked, “Have your classes ended?” Without

batting an eyelid, Elise nodded right away. “Where are we headed?” she asked. However, there was an

air of mystery to Alexander as he murmured, “You’ll see soon enough.”

And so, he drove the car and brought her to a vintage-looking restaurant. Furthermore, the waiter was

dressed in a traditional costume. The both of them then headed directly upstairs to the private room.

“The atmosphere here is quite pleasant,” Elise said sincerely. Soon after that, Alexander pulled out a

chair for her as he offered, “Have a seat.” Both of them sat facing each other and shortly after, the waiter came in with

two apples for them. “It’s Christmas Eve tonight. This is for you and I hope that you will enjoy your night.” Meanwhile, Alexander

raised an eyebrow.

“Christmas Eve?” Elise explained, “It’s just a simple occasion. We don’t need to make a big fuss about

it.” Alexander didn’t realize that today was Christmas Eve so he didn’t prepare a present for her.

However, after further consideration, he turned to her and said, “I’ve been too busy with work lately and

I haven’t had much time to go out.” Elise, too, was quite considerate. “You must be quite tired from all

the work-related matters that you need to deal with.” He lifted his head and shot a look at her, but his

face remained impassive and he mentioned calmly without any emotion, “Actually, I asked you out

today because I wanted to talk to you about something.” Humming in response, Elise took the teacup on the table

and poured some water into it before handing it to him. “Why did you want to see me?” Alexander looked at the teacup in her

hand and reached out for it. Then, he took a sip of water and hummed softly. Meanwhile, Elise mentioned once again, “What is

it?! Can you just tell me?” At that moment, Alexander lifted his head and their eyes met. They gazed at each other for a moment

before he finally replied slowly, “Let’s get married.”

Although he merely mentioned those few simple words, Elise was significantly shocked. Just then, the

water in the cup spilled all over the table due to her trembling hand. “W-What did you just say?”

Alexander noted her surprise, so he decided to explain. “I want to fulfill my promise to Grandpa, so will

you marry me?” Elise’s heart thudded frantically but she quickly came to her senses soon enough. “Are

you doing this just to fulfill Grandpa’s late wish?”

Alexander nodded in response. I can’t use any other excuse other than this, can I? Upon hearing that,

Elise looked slightly dejected but she randomly replied, “I just turned eighteen and I’m not past the legal

age to get married.” “It’s alright,” Alexander replied. “We can get engaged first and then hold the

marriage ceremony a few years later.” “But…” Elise was about to say something else but Alexander

interjected right away, “No buts. If you disagree, then just say so outright.

I won’t force you.” Elise pursed her lips but before she could get a word across, he continued,

“Grandpa’s doted on me the most since I was a kid and he has the highest expectations from me. This

is his only wish, so I would like to fulfill it and live with no regrets.” His words made Elise recall the

memories she had with Jonah. Grandpa had always been so kind to me, so I really shouldn’t disappoint

him. “Alright, that’s fine with me. We can get engaged first.”

Alexander hummed in agreement, but there was no hint of excitement on his face and he seemed like

he was discussing something irrelevant. “I’ll arrange for someone to get started on the engagement

preparation. What sort of ceremony would you prefer?” The sudden mention of an engagement

ceremony caught Elise by surprise. Meanwhile, Alexander was quite calm. “It’s alright. You can let me

know about the details once you’ve given some thought to it.”

Just then, Elise had a surreal sensation and she pinched her thighs hard. Ouch! That hurts, which

means this is real! Soon after that, she lifted her head and stared at Alexander, who was sitting right in

front of her. She blinked while she considered the situation. Is it a good idea to get engaged?! This has

happened way too suddenly, though! After the two of them finished their meal, Alexander footed the bill

and they made their way out of the door. Just then, they were about to walk out of the door when they

saw Jack and Mikayla walk in together.

The four of them looked at each other and Mikayla was quite startled by the scene. “Elise? W-Why are

you here?” Elise glanced at the duo in front of her and her first instinct was that there was something

unusual going on with the pair, but she didn’t reveal anything despite being aware. In the end, she

merely replied, “I came over for a meal.” “Enjoy your meal! We’ll be on our way now.” Elise waved at

them as she said that and followed Alexander out of the restaurant. After turning a corner, Alexander

couldn’t help raising his eyebrows. “Are they dating each other?”

Elise raised both of her palms into the air to signal that she had no idea as well. However, Mikayla and

Jack looked quite compatible together. It would be great if the pair actually got together. “It doesn’t

matter. Let’s head home.” Just then, Alexander agreed. “Let Cameron know if you have any

suggestions regarding the engagement ceremony and he’ll sort everything out.” Elise realized that

Alexander didn’t care too much about the engagement upon hearing his words and she couldn’t help

but feel slightly upset. However, she was also well aware that he would never mention a word about

getting engaged if it wasn’t for Jonah. …… As soon as the Griffith siblings got the news that Alexander

planned to get engaged with Elise, Danny was the one who felt the most shocked.

“Alex, are you pulling a prank on us? Are you actually going to get engaged with my boss?! That

means she’ll go from being my boss to being my sister-in-law!” Meanwhile, Jack, who was standing by

the side, was also quite surprised. “Alex, marriage is quite a sacred thing. Although this is Grandpa’s

last wish, there’s really no need to force yourself into anything. After all, Elise’s looks…” Jack gave out

a slight, intentional cough as he tried to mask his awkwardness while he brought up that topic.

“Whatever it is, she came from the countryside, after all.

Even if we overlook her appearance, you’re still worthy of someone much better than her.” Brendan

was usually the least outspoken sibling among them but right now, he chimed in as well, “Alex, I know

that in our family, it’s not a big deal even if we marry someone of unequal family status, but you should

at least be in love with each other. If you don’t love her, then you really shouldn’t waste her time.”

“That’s true! Alex, I think there’s no need to enter into a marriage.

After all, everyone knows that a loveless marriage is basically like being in a lifeless tomb—” However,

before Danny could finish his sentence, Alexander slowly replied, “I’ve made up my mind. I don’t care

about what you guys have to say but I’ve decided to marry Elise. Brendan, I’ll need you and your

team’s help to sort out our attire. Also, there’s no need for you guys to comment about anything else

because I know what I’m doing.”

All three of them obediently kept their comments to themselves as soon as they heard him say that he

knew what he was doing. They were fully aware that Alexander had always been quite opinionated

since young. As such, they stopped sharing their opinions with him, but they couldn’t help feeling

worried about his and Elise’s marriage. After all, how long could a marriage devoid of love last?
