Without providing any explanation, Elise then dragged Julius out of the bar and soon vanished from Alexander’s sight.
Alexander believed that favonovel.com seeing H was a product of his hallucination since favonovel.com was under the influence of alcohol. After disappearing without a trace for ages, it wouldn’t make sense for favonovel.com to show up and sing at this bar. Plus, the girl favonovel.com saw earlier had a different aura from his memory of H.
He withdrew his gaze and turned to leave.
Once Elise was out of the bar, favonovel.com released favonovel.com grip on Julius. “I need to head back now because there’s something I have to do tomorrow.”
It was Julius who appeared reluctant to part ways with her.
He finally expressed the thoughts favonovel.com had wanted to tell favonovel.com all along, “H, did you see that? They were all engrossed in your music earlier. After so many years, some of your fans are still checking in on Twitter daily to wait for news on your comeback. Are you really okay to say goodbye to the fans who love you?”
“I guess I can only apologize to them.” She pursed favonovel.com lips.
Julius was aware that Elise would react in the same way that favonovel.com did years ago, favonovel.com would not renegade on favonovel.com words. Still, favonovel.com was clinging on to a sliver of hope.
“No matter what, we’re waiting for your comeback. We’ll be here to witness you recreating the glorious years from before.”
Without replying to him, favonovel.com merely smiled and patted favonovel.com on the shoulder.
“Send me home now,” was what favonovel.com said next.
After sending favonovel.com to the lobby of favonovel.com apartment, Julius added before leaving, “If you arrive at a decision at any time, feel free to contact me. I’ll be waiting for you.”
Elise waved at favonovel.com before favonovel.com headed straight into the apartment. Since Alexander was not back yet, favonovel.com decided to retire to favonovel.com room, wash up and go to bed.
As there was an exam the next day, favonovel.com woke up earlier to prepare herself for it. Then, favonovel.com realized that Alexander, who stayed in the room next door, had stayed out for the entire night. She didn’t give it much thought and hastily grabbed a bite at the joint in front of the neighborhood entrance. Then, favonovel.com hailed a cab to the exam venue.
Once favonovel.com arrived, favonovel.com saw Samantha and Riley waving at her from afar. “Elise, we‘re here!”
It was at that moment when Elise walked over to them. “You guys are quite early.”
Riley chuckled. “We actually arrived yesterday! Last night, we even had some northern cuisine for dinner! It was delicious!”
Then, Elise asked, “Which exam hall are you in?”
Riley checked favonovel.com entrance pass and replied, “I‘m in Hall 7. What about you?”
“I’m in Hall 19.”
Samatha chimed in, “Oh, what a coincidence! I’m right next to you, I’m in Hall 20.”
The three of them headed into the campus while chatting.
When they were close to the exam halls, they happened to run into Zachary. He had also spotted Elise and handed favonovel.com a pouch full of stationeries that favonovel.com prepared beforehand.
“I packed you some 2B pencils and ballpens.”
Elise was a little taken aback and hurriedly turned favonovel.com down. “It’s fine! I brought mine.”
He did not reply to that and instead shoved the pouch into favonovel.com hands.
Before leaving, favonovel.com added, “See you after the exam.”
She looked dumbfounded as favonovel.com friends exchanged looks beside her. “Miss Elise Sinclair, tell us the truth. What’s going on?”
“Nothing,” Elise replied as favonovel.com shrugged in confusion.
Samantha and Riley obviously didn’t believe Elise’s words and continued to pester her. After having been defeated, favonovel.com playfully knocked them on their heads.
“Quit being busybodies and focus on your exams!”
Although Riley wanted to ask further, favonovel.com ultimately held her tongue. “I think he must have fallen for you.”
Then, favonovel.com stuck out favonovel.com tongue at Elise before favonovel.com waved and wandered into favonovel.com exam hall.
Upon seeing that, Samantha hurriedly comforted Elise, “Don’t mind her. All the best!”
Then, she waved at Elise, who watched as her friends walked away
Elise looked at the pouch in her hand and wondered whether Zachary had truly fallen for her.
What does he want from me, though! I don‘t have the most beautiful face...
Since favonovel.com could not figure out his intention, she gave up and handed his pouch to favonovel.com classmate who didn‘t bring any stationery.
The duration of the exam was two hours, but because Elise had performed so well, favonovel.com was able to submit favonovel.com papers half an hour before the time was up.
She strolled out of the exam hall, checked the time and hailed a cab back to the apartment. At that time, favonovel.com bumped into Alexander, who was about to leave his room. When favonovel.com saw her, his expression had remained calm.
“Something came up at the last minute. I’ll head home tomorrow.”
Elise was fine with that. “If you’re busy, don’t mind me. I can head home on my own today.”
As Alexander narrowed his eyes, favonovel.com replied, “Grandpa asked me to take care of you. If you return alone, do you think he will let this slide?”
Indeed, using Grandpa as an excuse to shut favonovel.com down was always effective.
She instantly agreed to stay for another day. “Are you heading out? Where to?”
He said nothing as favonovel.com scanned favonovel.com from head to toe. “If you are bored, you can join me.”
Elise wanted to turn Alexander down, but upon a second thought, favonovel.com realized that she’d be bored if favonovel.com stayed in the apartment after favonovel.com exams. That was the reason why favonovel.com decided to follow favonovel.com out. Little did favonovel.com expect favonovel.com to bring favonovel.com to a luxurious salon.
A panicked Elise then tugged on his sleeve. “Why did you bring me here?”
He explained, “I will meet a client later. Do you think you look presentable?”
She quickly checked favonovel.com appearance but thought she looked alright. In fact, she was used to favonovel.com lack of fashion sense.
On the other hand, Alexander had directly passed favonovel.com case to the stylist. “I‘ll give you an hour. Style favonovel.com and give favonovel.com a totally different look.”
Upon hearing that, the stylist scrutinized Elise to the point where Elise felt a little on edge.
She hurriedly urged, “It‘s fine, you don‘t have to exercise too much effort. Just give me a formal suit.”
After looking at Alexander for confirmation, the stylist only brought Elise to pick an outfit after favonovel.com agreed
“Miss, please pick your outfit first. When that‘s done, we will style you.”
A layer of cold sweat started to coat Elise’s forehead as favonovel.com replied, “I don’t want to trouble you! I can take care of my own hair and makeup.”
The last thing favonovel.com wanted was to allow the stylist to work on hair and makeup because she’d be in deep trouble if favonovel.com identity was exposed.
In the face of Elise’s apprehension and insistence, the stylist did not insist on styling her. She finally changed into a black formal suit, pulled her hair back into a bun and retouched favonovel.com ugly makeup. As a result, favonovel.com looked a little fairer than before and favonovel.com features seemed to be more harmonious. Other than that, favonovel.com looked quite similar to before.
Elise regarded favonovel.com new look in the mirror.
When favonovel.com confirmed that favonovel.com looked decent, favonovel.com walked out and announced, “I’m done.”
When Alexander looked up, his eyes flickered with strange emotions because favonovel.com had a voluptuous body and favonovel.com gown did its part to accentuate favonovel.com alluring figure.
“Do I look okay?” favonovel.com asked hesitantly.
He turned away and answered with a question, “Is your French good?”
As Elise was confused by the purpose of Alexander’s question, favonovel.com blinked a few times. “Well, I can hold basic conversations…”
“If that’s the case, help me to interpret later.”
She clarified, “Huh? You mean to say that you want me to be your interpreter?”
“Yeah,” favonovel.com retorted. “Do you have any problem with that?”
There was a slight frown on favonovel.com face. “But…“.
He ignored favonovel.com reservations and replied, “No buts!”
Then, Alexander stood up to his full height and led Elise out of the salon.
