I Didn’t Know That You Are a Scholar
Jack was confused at first but after staring at Mikayla, he finally understood what was happening. Elise
is trying to match both of us together, right? She really doesn’t know what she is doing. Mikayla and I
are just friends.
“Elise, you guys are finally here,” Mikayla said before turning toward Jack. “You’re here as well.”
However, he only gave her a simple reply without saying anything while putting on an indifferent
expression. His reaction immediately left Mikayla confused because this wasn’t how he would usually
react when they were alone together.
Then, the four of them boarded the plane and arrived at Switzerland a dozen or so hours later.
At the moment, it was nighttime in Switzerland, so they quickly rushed to the hotel. Elise and Mikayla
were staying in one room, while Alexander and Jack stayed together in another.
Due to tiredness, the two girls immediately fell asleep the moment they lay down on their beds.
Meanwhile, Alexander and Jack seemed to still have some energy left so after arriving at the hotel,
they took a bath before going downstairs to have a drink. Jack was still surprised that Alexander would
suddenly bring Elise along on a skiing trip, so he couldn’t help but ask, “Alexander, do you really like
Elise?”
Listening to his words, Alexander remained emotionless, making it difficult for others to read his mind.
Instead, he took a huge gulp of his wine glass to conceal his true emotions. However, Jack read his
actions as him being distressed, so he patted his shoulder and said, “Alexander, I understand that you
are doing all this because of Grandpa’s last wish. Actually, you don’t need to force yourself. Grandpa
has passed away and I believe that he wants all of us to live a happy life. If he knows how reluctant you
are to be together with Elise, he definitely won’t force you to do so.”
With a faint smile, Alexander murmured, “I didn’t get engaged with her because of Grandpa.” Jack
thought he had heard him wrongly at first, but Alexander’s words afterward immediately caused his
eyes to widen. “I did it because… I found out that I seem to like her.”
Listening to his words, Jack couldn’t help but pinch himself. “Alex, are you joking?”
“Do I look like I’m joking?”
Jack quickly nodded his head. He was still in shock after Alexander personally admitted to him that he
liked Elise, which was why the former immediately thought that Alexander was joking with him.
“Are you sure? She looks so…” As an admirer of good-looks, Jack kept on bringing up her appearance
because he believed that no one would care how beautiful you were inside if there was nothing
appealing on the outside. “What is it about her that you like?”
Alexander himself couldn’t answer his question, as he believed that there shouldn’t be a reason for a
person to fall in love. If something like love can be explained rationally, does that even count as true
love?
“I don’t know. Maybe it’s temporary or maybe I really like her. However, before I figure out my true
feelings for her, I hope that you can keep this a secret for me.”
Jack was still processing what he just heard but seeing Alexander’s serious expression, he felt that
perhaps he wasn’t joking this time.
“It’s getting late. You should go to sleep. We are going out together tomorrow, so please don’t look so
sulky as you were today.”
Quickly, Jack refuted, “I wasn’t. I’m just getting used to the place.”
“You better be. Mikayla is a nice girl. If you like her, you should act fast.”
Listening to him, Jack was frightened as he kept on refuting, “Alexander, there’s really nothing going on
between the two of us. I only see her as my friend.”
“Even so, everyone starts out as friends.”
Upon hearing that, Jack was rendered speechless.
He felt that there was nothing he could do to convince Alexander, so he kept quiet and ignored him.
After returning to their room, Jack took a shower before falling asleep on the bed while Alexander
remained awake. He was obviously tired, but he just couldn’t fall asleep. Therefore, he stood alone
outside the window, gazing at the strange city in front of him. As the confusion inside his heart seemed
to be fading away, he realized that some things just required him to find the answer himself.
…
The next day, Elise woke up during the afternoon due to the jet lag she experienced the day before.
When she woke up, Mikayla was already gone. After stretching her body, she took a look at the note on
the table and found out that Mikayla had gone out for lunch.
After cleaning herself up and changing her clothes, she decided to leave the room. However, the
moment she opened the door, the door on the opposite side also opened at the same time, and it was
as if she had had a telepathic conversation with Alexander in the other room. As the two of them stared
at each other, he took the initiative to invite her for lunch. “Do you want to go down to eat together?”
She nodded her head, so they closed their doors and went down in the same elevator.
The restaurants in Switzerland were mostly based on western cuisines. After reading through the
menu, Elise ordered her favorite steak and foie gras. Listening to her fluent French, Alexander couldn’t
help but praise, “Your French is quite good. You even have their local accent. Have you stayed abroad
before?”
“I went on a student exchange programme for a year,” she replied. That is possibly the happiest time in
my life. Thinking about it right now fills me with beautiful memories.
“I see.” He didn’t ask her any more questions. After they ordered their food, the waiter took the menu
and left.
“I heard that you went to England to pursue your MBA, right?” she asked, to which he answered, “I
completed my undergraduate and postgraduate degree in Cambridge University within 3 years.”
“I didn’t know that you are a scholar.”
“You are not bad yourself too. It’s not like anyone could win first place in the city’s Math Olympiad.” He
quickly followed up her words.
At that moment, the waiter came over with their steaks. “Enjoy your meal!”
Just as Elise was about to pick up her tableware after thanking the waiter, Alexander acted first and
helped her cut the steak before handing it back to her. “Try it—the taste should be authentic here.”
Looking at the neatly cut steak in front of her, Elise felt a strange feeling surging inside her heart. “I
didn’t know that you are this good at cutting steak. You should teach me in the future.”
The moment her words came out, she could hear the mumbling voices of two foreigners sitting next to
them. Even though their voices were soft, she could still hear their every word clearly.
“Why does that handsome man have the appetite to eat with such an ugly girl?”
