Chapter 26

Elise was so concentrated on solving the problems that she did not notice Alexander’s exploring gaze. After she

completed one question, the scrap paper was already full of workings. Elise stretched while a deep voice

emerged from beside. “Good job. You‘ve used the correct method and formula. Continue with the next question. This question is less challenging than the previous one.”

Elise hummed in response and continued solving the questions with high spirits. As time passed, Elise became

The dim light shone on her ugly face, but at this moment, Alexander thought Elise didn’t look that bad at all. He even thought she looked rather gentle.

Standing up, he then carried Elise and laid her gently on the bed. Upon being put on the bed, Elise flipped over

Fortunately, her makeup still looked fine and her wig did not come off. Elise checked her appearance in the mirror again and only went downstairs with her school bag after ensuring that everything looked fine.

Alexander started the car engine and drove out slowly. On the way, no one spoke a word. Elise had never felt so awkward before as she could even sense the suppressed atmosphere. Inwardly, Elise kept praying that she
