Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 653 Acting One Way to My Face and Another Behind My Back

Winona had claimed that Craig was busy with various commercials recently, so much so that they barely had any time to meet each other. If that was the case, then what was he doing just now?

Joey followed Elise’s gaze and took in the sight. It was just that she did not recognize Craig, so she casually said, “That man must have a bad stomach.”

“How do you know?” Elise asked innocently.

“It’s so obvious! He’s a kept man!” Joey pursed her lips. She despised these kinds of men the most—men who put on airs but only wanted to ‘leech’ off women to live.

Even Joey could tell that the relationship between Craig and that woman was not that simple. It proved that Elise was not overthinking things.

In the driver’s seat, Alexander was slightly absent-minded as he drove. He would glance in the rearview mirror from time to time and observe Elise’s reaction. He thought that today might be a good day to confess.

Following several internal struggles, he reduced his driving speed and prepared to speak. But, when he looked up, he saw that Elise had taken out her phone to make a phone call. The words that were on the tip of his tongue could only be swallowed back once more.

It didn’t take long for Winona to answer the phone.

“Elise, I was just about to call you. So many people have been asking for you to appear in their commercials. Even Blitzy Entertainment has started to prepare for a joint promotional effort.” She was so busy that her eyes were spinning, but she seemed to be enjoying herself.

People who had just graduated from college were usually like that. They were not scared of exhaustion or hardship. Instead, they were most afraid of having nothing to do or being unneeded.

“Let’s meet up and talk about that next time. I remember you saying that your boyfriend, Craig, is a trainee who has been very busy recently, right?” Elise could not ask too bluntly, so she could only ask in a slightly convoluted manner.

“That’s right! He’s really very hardworking. I only helped him a little in the early stage, and he is already doing much better recently. I heard that several investors have been interested in shooting commercials with him. Our goals are extremely aligned. If it’s for the sake of our career, we are not afraid, no matter how difficult it gets. Else, don’t you think I have a good eye for people?” At the mention of Craig, Winona shone as brightly as a little sun, full of vigor.
