Chapter 293 Suspected
In spite of that, there was no way for him to ask about it. On the other hand, Elise wasn’t thinking as much as Danny was; she made her way to the mathematics award ceremony after hanging up. After all, she had already given her word to Professor Merlin; otherwise, she wouldn’t attend such an event given her usual personality. Unexpectedly, before she stepped into the venue, she saw Alexander standing at the entrance. Thinking that he was here to retrieve his cell phone, Elise took out the phone from her pocket and passed it to the man with a stony face in front of her. “Here, your cell phone.” Parting his lips, Alexander spat out the words unhappily. “You think I’m here for the phone?”

But after that, slowly through their interactions, she fell for Alexander as well. At that moment, a small crowd was starting to build up outside the venue.
