Chapter 171 Find Some Time for the Game

Ever since Jonah passed on, Alexander became exceptionally busy. In the past, he had time to send Elise to school but nowadays, he couldn’t even spare that ten minutes of his time.

Just then, it was Danny’s turn to send Elise to school again. “Boss, it’s nearly time for our final exam. Let’s go and study together at the library in the afternoon.”

Elise, however, stared at the bare trees outside the window and pondered, I can’t believe that winter is almost over.

“Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, right?” Elise mentioned in passing. Just then, Danny quickly looked at the calendar and replied, “Yes, it’s the twenty-fourth tomorrow and it’ll be Christmas the day after tomorrow. It’s been forecasted that it’ll snow on Christmas. I wonder whether we’ll be able to experience a white Christmas this year?”

Meanwhile, Elise retracted her gaze. “I checked the weather forecast and it seems that there will be snow this year. Let’s wait and see.”

They exited the car and walked side-by-side toward the school. As soon as they arrived at the classroom, they noticed everyone crowded around talking amongst themselves. “Apparently the TV program that Samantha starred in is going to be aired on Mango TV tonight. We must show our support tonight.”

“Samantha has good acting skills. I’ve seen the trailer and it piqued my interest, so I’m definitely going to watch the program tonight.”

Meanwhile, Elise pulled out her chair and took a seat. Just then, Mikayla rushed forward and said, “Samantha’s TV program will be aired tonight. Let’s celebrate the occasion with her.”

Elise hummed in response. “This is the first show she’s starred in and she has done a great job. I’ll arrange for some flowers to be sent to her later.”

“Okay! I’m going to get her a present too,” Mikayla chimed in. At that moment, she scrutinized Elise carefully before murmuring, “Elise, does Jack have any new events lately?”

Just then, Elise lifted her head and stared at Mikayla. “Don’t tell me that you’re unaware of your husband’s schedule?”

Upon hearing that, Mikayla was slightly embarrassed. “H-How would I know his schedule?! Well, I heard that he seems to be quite busy lately.”

Meanwhile, Elise could kind of sense that there was something wrong behind these words. “Mikayla, what’s up with you lately? You seem to care a lot about Jack lately, don’t you?” She’s never behaved this way before.
