Julius, who hadn’t gotten a reply from Elise for a long time, continued, “Whatever it is, I’m glad I got to witness the day you re-enter the music scene. I also listened to your song with Jack Griffith. The style of the song is marvelous, and your talent is as good as before without the slightest hint of wavering. If you are willing to return to this circle one day in the future, I will definitely stand behind you and support you till the end.”
Elise smiled happily after hearing what Julius said. “Thank you!” “Remember, you’re not alone—there are countless people behind you who support you, and they have been waiting for you. No matter how long, they will always wait for you. Okay?” Elise hummed in reply and hung up the phone. Even she herself was not sure when she would completely reconcile with her past self, but she hoped that that day wouldn’t be too far away. …… Jack’s new song was really popular—crazily popular.
No matter where one was, one could hear the familiar melody ringing in their ears: On the subway, in the park, on the bus, and even on campus radio… The popularity of this song was unprecedented, and it went viral. Even Alexander played it on loop dozens of times at once before he finally said, “It really is H’s style—she’s really back.” Cameron also knew that Alexander liked H’s music. He previously kept H’s albums in the drawer of the office, so he naturally understood Alexander’s excitement.
“I bet we will be able to hear a lot of H’s new songs in the future.” Alexander hummed a reply, seemingly in a good mood. “I hope so too.” After he finished speaking, he looked at the time—it was almost 5.00PM. He remembered that Jack was supposed to pick Elise up today, so he simply took the car key and went out. “I have to go somewhere later. Cancel all my meetings in the evening.” Cameron quickly replied with an ‘Okay’ and watched Alexander walk into the elevator.
After classes ended in the afternoon, Elise walked to the gate as usual, but after searching for a long time, she could not find Jack’s car, so she called Jack. “Jack, when are you coming to pick me up?” “I’m busy with my schedule and will be a few minutes late. Can you wait for me at the gate for a bit?”
Jack’s tone was a little impatient. If it wasn’t for Jonah’s forced request, he wouldn’t want to pick up Elise at all. Now, he had no choice—even if his schedule was packed, he still had to pick her up on time. Elise pursed her lips and said, “Got it.” With that, she hung up the phone before waiting for Jack’s reply. After all, she was not in a hurry, so she walked over to the gate and sat alone on the stool. After a while, a familiar Maybach stopped by, and the window slid down, revealing Alexander’s face.
“Elise Sinclair.” Hearing someone calling her name, Elise raised her eyes subconsciously and saw Alexander. This surprised her. “Why are you here?” Alexander then asked, “Where’s Jack? Not here yet?” Elise shook her head. “I guess it will take a while more.” Alexander said directly, “Then get in the car. I’ll take you home.” Elise hurriedly opened the car door and got into the car. At this moment, Jack also arrived.
He saw Alexander first and took the initiative to say hello to him. “Alex!” However, just when he made a sound, the eyes of many people around looked over, and after discovering that it was Jack, all of them seemed to have gone crazy as they rushed up to him immediately. “Jack Griffith! It’s really you, Jack! Oh, my God! I’m in the presence of Jack Griffith!” “Ahhh! Jack, can you sign my…” When he noticed that he had been recognized by fans, Jack quickly opened the door to Alexander’s car and got in.
“Alex, drive!” Alexander started the car and drove out just to get rid of the swarming fans. Jack looked back, and after seeing that the fans did not manage to follow, he was finally relieved. “Thank God you were here, Alex. If we ended up being surrounded by those fans, I don’t know when you’d be able to
escape.” Alexander looked at him. “You’ve become quite popular lately, huh?” Jack sighed. “Man, I’m so tired. There are more than a dozen meetings arranged on my schedule in a day, and a lot of business performances as well.
I’m exhausted! Oh! How about this, Alex—when it’s my turn to pick up Elise another day, can you just do it in my stead please?” Alexander did not refuse and simply replied, “Sure.” Jack looked happy from hearing Alexander’s answer. “Really? Thank you so much.” Immediately, Jack looked at Elise again. “Elise, you have to forgive me. I’m really busy, so I’ll have Alex pick you up for me, and we’ll discuss other arrangements later when I’m done with all this work on my schedule.”
Elise agreed. After all, it didn’t make any difference who came to pick her up. Immediately after, Alexander uttered, “Your new song is good. I heard H wrote it for you.” Jack knew that Alexander liked H’s songs, and he was even considered H’s partial fan at one point, so he quickly said, “Actually, I’m not exactly clear about this either. I don’t even know H, and we don’t have any acquaintances in common that I know of.
It’s just a friend of mine who knew H and asked her to do me this favor.” Jack was telling the truth, but Elise still silently lowered her head and said nothing. Alexander nodded in understanding and continued to drive. Jack hurriedly leaned forward. “Alex, if you really like H, I can ask my friend to help you play cupid and let you two meet—I heard that H is a beautiful woman; maybe she doesn’t have a boyfriend yet.
How about you tie her down and make her my sister-in-law?” As soon as Jack said what he said, Alexander floored the brakes. This caused serious friction between the tires and the road, and the three of them flung forward because of inertia. “Alex, I was just saying this casually. You don’t have to be this excited,” Jack said with a sullen face, but Alexander replied sternly, “Don’t ever talk about this kind of thing again.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
I just appreciate H’s talent in music. Liking her songs has nothing to do with my personal feelings.” Alexander spoke while the corner of his eyes glanced at Elise in the back seat. He didn’t even understand why he was so nervous, but he was afraid that Elise would misunderstand. Seeing that Alexander was being so serious, Jack retracted the mocking smile on his face and quickly explained, “Alex, it’s just a joke, okay?”
Alexander’s expression turned brighter, and then he continued to drive. “But Alex, you haven’t been with anyone for so many years. I’m almost doubting your sexual orientation. Or… do you like men?” Alexander’s face sank again, and he shot over with cold eyes. “You seem to be very talkative today.”
Feeling a dangerous aura, Jack shook his head quickly. “Hey, hey, hey. I’m just curious; that’s all. There is absolutely no other meaning…” However, Alexander’s expression still did not improve in the slightest. Jack instantly knew that he had caused a disaster, so he went on to say, “Alex, your sexual orientation is not a problem.
I’m the problem here. I talk too much…” “Shut up,” Alexander scolded coldly. However, the next second, Elise couldn’t help but burst out laughing, and the two of them looked at her in unison. Elise looked up innocently at the two of them and said with a smile, “It’s nice to see two brothers caring about each other. But Alex, do you really like men? Otherwise, why did you react so greatly?”
