Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1182

"No garlic, no ginger, and extra cilantro."

Corvus froze in place, staring at her calmly, though his gaze was terrifyingly cold.

"And I want dessert after, preferably something mango-flavored." Juniper sat in her chair, casually swinging her feet. "What about candy? I'd like some candy, too."

"Anything else?"

Corvus's lips twitched, the scar under his eye contorting menacingly. He spoke through gritted teeth.

"Nope."

Juniper thought for a moment, shook her head, and said politely, "Thanks."

Corvus kept a long, sullen face, not saying a word.

Behind him, several researchers and subordinates were also staring at her in sheer disbelief.

Did she not understand the concept of being a prisoner?

That posture, that attitude...

If you didn't know she was being held captive, you'd think she was at a resort.

Living in a 'prison-themed' luxury hotel.

"I want food—"

Seeing that no one was moving, Juniper, who was already starving, raised her voice and started yelling again.

"What are you standing around for?! Hurry up and go prepare food for this starving ghost!" Corvus turned his head and roared viciously.

"Yes, sir!"

The subordinates scrambled out of the room.

"You just stay here and behave," Corvus said, tilting his chin toward the computer. "All the data on the gene modification research is in there. Take an early look at it."

"The sooner you succeed in your research, the sooner I can give you a quick death."

"Sure."

Juniper glanced at the computer, a smirk curling on her lips.

The computer was fitted with a tracker; the moment she tried to exit the local network, an alarm would trigger.

Not only that, but the device was being monitored in real time, making it utterly impossible to send a message outside.

The old bastard really learned his lesson.

Seeing her acting docile, Corvus didn't say anything more and stormed off.

The researchers hurried after him, muttering among themselves.

Why did it feel like the boss was being awfully indulgent with this girl?

Could it be because she looked the most like Dr. Sommers?

But no matter what, she was still Silas Blackwood's daughter!

Thinking back to Celine Sherwin last time...

They just couldn't understand it!
