Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 513 And You Have the Right Instead?

Truth be told, Austin was hoping that the accusations were true.

However, although Faye’s dirty laundry had been aired in front of everyone, none of the elders from the

Anderson Family commented about it. Obviously, her connections at the company were far more

complicated than he imagined. It wouldn’t be that easy to defeat her.

“How about this? I’ll ask someone to investigate this issue, but you have to explain to me how you used

the 100 million that you just transferred.”

“Why do we have to wait?” Before Faye could even reply, Elise answered the question. “We will have a

way to find out whether it is accurate or not.”

Then, Elise glanced at the crowd and said loudly, “Captain Gleeman, I know you are here. Please show

yourself.”

From the back of the crowd, a muscular man walked through the crowd toward her with a cocktail glass

in his hand.

An impatient Jackson asked, “Who told you that I’m here?”

I used someone else’s identity and invitation card. How did this ‘murderer’ find out?

Elise beamed. “I’m sure you won’t dare to miss such a good opportunity to observe me.”

He heaved a long sigh. “Alright. I will look into this. If this evidence is true, none of you can escape.”

After that, he took a slight pause before adding, “You know that I’m not referring to today’s incident.”

“Of course, none of us can escape from the mighty law.” Elise shrugged.

“This is a serious matter.” Jackson chastised her.

“I’m just joking.” Elise rolled her eyes in exasperation. “As usual, you lack humor, Captain Gleeman.”

He did not reply to her.

“Alright. We have enough of a scene for today. Let’s discuss this later,” Austin added solemnly.

After all, he did not want the police to bring his daughter away from the party that his family hosted.

Elise nodded. “Oh, right. It’s time to talk business.”

“You have something else to discuss?” Austin frowned and murmured quietly, “Yoyo, if it’s private, we

can discuss it among the family members once the party is over. We don’t have to make a fool of

ourselves in front of the guests.”

“Are you worried that I might continue to disgrace Faye?” Elise asked directly.

Austin was instantly at a loss for a reply.

To be precise, he was worried about the Anderson Family’s reputation and since Faye was a part of it, it

meant he could not deny the truth.

Elise immediately turned indifferent as she said coldly, “Don’t you worry about that. There are many

people who want to teach her a lesson. I have no interest in her for the time being.”

Upon hearing that, Austin sighed. I’m afraid I’ll have to interact with this daughter of mine as if we are

strangers for the rest of my life.

Elise ignored him and walked to a nearby table. Then, she took a small spoon to hit her champagne

glass, letting out a crisp sound.

“Everyone, I have some good news to share with you. You know that I have been enjoying myself abroad

and I know little about the Anderson Family’s business. Now that I have returned, I finally thought it

through and understood the hard work that my father and my sister have put into it. From now onward, I

will officially join Anderson Pharmaceuticals to help them to bear the burden.”

As soon as Faye heard that, anger pulsed through her veins as she yelled, “No!”

After realizing her faux pas the next second, she lowered her voice and pretended to be kind as she

responded, “I was just trying to say—how could you do that? You are still studying at university. You

should live your life without any burdens, Elise. It’s enough that one of us is helping out with the

business. Since you are still a student, you should focus on your studies.”

“Don’t I have the right to do so?” Elise stared into Faye’s eyes without any humor. It was clear that she

was not making a joke.

“If you insist on taking that perspective, my reply will be yes. Indeed, you are not fit to take charge of

Anderson Pharmaceuticals. I don’t want to say this, but you are from the countryside…” She pretended

to accidentally let slip of the fact and quickly paused before she continued. “I mean, the countryside

abroad. You have been having fun with farmers and they are the people whom you have interacted the

most with. Our business is worth hundreds of millions. It’s not something you can simply play with.”

“I see.” Elise blinked carefreely. “So, as the person who embezzled the company funds, you have the

right to manage the company instead? Don’t forget that I acquired the land that we need for the

development of the next six months without spending a cent. If this is not enough to prove my abilities,

I’m going to suspect that you actually don’t want me to join the company.”

Finally, the stakeholders of Anderson Pharmaceuticals, who had been observing the situation all this

while, opened their mouths.

“So, that land was auctioned off by the second daughter of the Anderson Family!”

“Once we get the piece of land, we don’t have to worry about the development for the next three years,

do we?”

“Faye even wanted to halt the plan before this. It turns out that she just wants to bully her sister and

ignore our profits!”

“We are businessmen, after all. There’s no reason why we won’t want to earn more profit. Say something

about this, Mr. Anderson!”

Austin, who was suddenly brought into the conversation, had no idea how to explain this and glared at

Faye. It’s Faye who asked me to hide this from the stakeholders, and she’s the one who privately asked

for the land from Elise. Now that everyone knows this, how can I even defend her?

Faye did not look well either. It was completely out of her expectation that Elise could be so ruthless as

to completely ignore Austin’s feelings and embarrass both her and Austin in public. This woman is too

cruel! I still lost to her in the end!

“Hahahaha! Interesting!” Kenneth, who had been observing the situation all this while, suddenly clapped.

“Since you would like to learn how to manage a business, Yoona, I will announce this—as long as you

join the management of Anderson Pharmaceuticals, Smith Co. will collaborate with Anderson

Pharmaceuticals on the properties that we plan to invest in Landred City.”

With that, he did not forget to lean toward Elise to get her approval for his help. “How about that? I

helped you out again.”

Elise shot him a sideway glance. “I can succeed even without you.”

“That’s true. But with me, it’s way easier for you, isn’t it?”

With that, Kenneth straightened his back and looked at the crowd arrogantly as if he was a victor.

However, Elise was stunned upon hearing his question because her thoughts had wandered elsewhere.

At that moment, she felt a familiar feeling and even wanted to reply to his dominance. It was just an

instantaneous feeling, yet it created even more doubts in her.

She did not believe that a man like Kenneth would be willing to help her out so much without asking for

any return, just for her beauty.

It was probable that this man would bring even more mystery to her.

Kenneth’s promise of working together with Smith Co. had attracted the stakeholders who valued profit.

“Miss Yoona, you are so talented at such a young age. You should have a spot in the company!”

“I support Miss Yoona to join the company and inherit the business.”

“It’s time for Anderson Pharmaceuticals to have some new blood. Please take up your responsibility,

Miss Yoona!”
