Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 596 Was She Overthinking?

“Compatibility isn’t determined based on appearance, Mr. Bailey. If what you said earlier was broadcast, you’d be known as a shallow man,” Elise reminded him, her face emotionless.

“Well, perhaps I’m not a profound person to begin with,” Kenneth replied. His words seemed to have a deeper meaning.

She sensed that as well, but now was not the time to argue with him. Hence, she changed the subject of their conversation. “Where’s the firewood that you collected? Don’t tell me you brought nothing back after being gone for so long.”

“Of course not.” He raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the courtyard, saying, “I wouldn’t disappoint pretty ladies.”

Hearing that, she ignored his flirty words and went straight to get the firewood.

The live broadcast proceeded without a hitch. At the very end, the director had a last-minute idea to include an exclusive interview on crisis management, and that greatly boosted Elise’s popularity.

The livestream show set a new record for ratings among all similar programmes in Cittadel, making Elise’s name ranking among the top three trending search terms on various social media platforms. The show was shared by many, resulting in a nationwide sensation that gradually spread abroad.

Shortly after the show ended, Jack arrived with a cake to express his congrats.

“Congratulations Miss H, our new queen of variety shows,” he teased. “Today’s script was good. The female actor was daring enough to remove her makeup in the live broadcast. She really went all out.”

“Thank you, Mr. Jack!” Winona took the cake with familiarity, and after a brief pause, she explained, as if she was afraid of something, “That wasn’t a scripted scene. That girl really barged in on her own. I merely walked away for a while and something terrible almost happened!”

Though she was still perplexed over the matter, she had quickly accepted the fact that her artist was H after hearing the crew’s explanation.

Winona, of course, still had some fear lingering in her after Celina’s previous attack on Elise. Hence, she vowed to herself that she would always stay by Elise’s side and not step away even for a single second for future shows.

“What?” Jack was surprised after he heard that, and he immediately asked, “Darling sister-in-law, are you alright?”

In response, Elise shrugged and with one of her brows raised, she answered, “No, I’m not.”

“Where are you hurt?! Why did you continue with the show when you’re injured? Quick, I’ll send you to the hospital for a check-up now!” He got anxious hearing her reply.
