Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 25

Elise was chewing on her pen when she heard the question. In response, she quickly lifted her head to glance at Alexander and hummed.

“When’s the competition?” Alexander asked again.

“Next Friday at Athesea High.” As she recalled Jack had once mentioned that Alexander had taken part in a Mathematics Olympiad competition before too, she added, “I heard you participated in a Mathematics Olympiad competition before and had even won the first prize. Do you have any tips for me?”

Alexander lifted his brows slightly. “That was a long time ago, so I can’t be of much help now.”

Joy spread across Jonah’s face when he saw Elise. “How are things at school, Ellie? Just tell me if you’re

Alexander did not refute Jonah’s words but answered indifferently, “Alright, Grandpa.”

Jonah couldn’t be bothered about Alexander’s apathetic response. So, he diverted his attention back to Elise and
