Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1581

"Janet, you were so flustered just now. You definitely have feelings for me too, right?"

Melvin Steele gently turned Janet by the shoulders so she was facing him directly, the depth of emotion in his eyes startlingly intense.

"If you just tell me you don't like me, I'll never bother you again."

"Mr. Steele." Janet tilted her head up, meeting the man's gaze. "How can you be so sure you actually like me, and this isn't just some passing whim?" she asked softly.

"How can I be sure?"

Melvin was stumped by the question, unsure of how to answer for a moment.

"Yeah." Janet nodded seriously, her glossy lips parting. "I'm someone who loves deeply. Once my mind is made up, it doesn't change easily. If you lose interest in me later and leave, I'll be devastated."

Her eyes dimmed, and her tone grew solemn. "Relationships aren't a game. You told me to think it over carefully. What about you? Have you thought it through? I don't know what I can do to make you believe my feelings are genuine."

Saying that, Melvin pulled a stack of cards and keys from his pocket.

"These are all my bank cards and the keys to my properties. The PINs are written on the back, and I can transfer the deeds into your name."

Melvin cupped her face, his eyes red-rimmed as he spoke word by word. "When that old fox Shanley chased after my sister, he used this exact same trick. If you still don't feel secure, we can put it in writing."

Melvin thought for a moment before adding earnestly, "If I ever let you down or treat you badly, you can have the assassins from Subterra Vanguard or the Sigma Network take me out."

"You're Juniper's brother. Why would they ever assassinate you?"

Janet was astounded.

"Brother, schmother," Melvin grumbled, feeling thoroughly wronged. "In Juniper's heart, you're way more important than I am."

The moment the two of them had an issue, the first thing Juniper cared about was whether Janet was mad at him.

Listening to him, the corners of Janet's lips couldn't help but curve up.
