Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 400

Chapter 400 My Enemy

“I don’t understand.” Alexander’s expression was frozen on his face.

Austin thought for a while, then tried dropping hints. “Matthew is one of the Griffiths, and there’s this thing between him and Elise… Well, anyway, with that sort of relationship, she mustn’t be married to any of you. As her father, I have to ensure that she stays unharmed.”

Alexander went silent for a while, after which he blocked the receiver of his phone as he told everyone in the office, “We’ll take a break for 15 minutes. Everyone out.”

Within a minute, everyone else had already left the room. It was only after that when Alexander returned to his call with Austin. “You mean that photo with Matthew and Elise?”

Austin was stunned, for he didn’t expect Alexander to know about this.

“Since you already know, there’s no reason for me to hide. If anyone learns of the history between your brother and Elise, the only one to be hurt will be Elise, and you know it. If you’re a gentleman, you would call off the wedding,” Austin said.

“Impossible.” Alexander then repeated his vow, claiming, “I have to marry Elise!”

“So you’re saying that you want to go against me?” Austin’s voice turned cold. “Do you think you’re qualified enough to fight me just because you have Frazier Pharmaceuticals and that measly amount of money you got from the stock market?”

“You are Elise’s father, so I won’t hurt you. However, anyone who dares stand in the way of my union with Elise will be my enemy!” Alexander said gravely, every syllable laced with warning.

 

“All right, then. We’ll see how you spout nonsense when you get in trouble!”

With that, Austin hung up. In the office, the look in Alexander’s eyes grew cold. He was lost in his own thoughts as he tried to guess where Matthew was at the moment.

Just as expected, I should’ve gotten to the root of the problem while I had the chance. New problems will keep popping up if this does not end well.
