Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1582

Seeing Janet's face pale, Melvin quickly explained, "I'm kidding. I just wanted to show my loyalty. Your mom wouldn't actually stab me."

"I wouldn't be so sure about that," Janet bit her lip.

Since her father passed away, she was her mother's entire world. Growing up, her mom had endured so much hardship just to make sure she was never hurt. If anyone dared to bully her, her mother would absolutely fight them to the death.

"Let's head out first, otherwise Juniper's going to think I'm picking on you." Melvin put his jacket on and grabbed Janet's hand to lead her out.

Janet was forced to follow Melvin out, her mind a chaotic mess.

"Does Juniper know?" Janet asked.

"What if she does?" Melvin asked, sounding quite cocky. "If she didn't agree, would you actually listen to her?"

Janet stopped in her tracks, glaring at Melvin in exasperation. "I *would* listen to her."

Juniper was a great judge of character. If she felt they weren't a good match, then they definitely weren't.

Melvin fell silent, looking at her in shock. "In your heart, Juniper is more important than I am."

"Yeah." Janet nodded like an obedient child. "Juniper means everything to me."

Without Juniper, she would never have gotten into Eclara University. And she definitely wouldn't have met Melvin.

So...she would never do anything in the name of love that would make Juniper unhappy.

"Fair enough." Melvin was disappointed for a few seconds before quickly making peace with it. "I'll just have to love you twice as much to make up for the part of your heart that belongs to Juniper."

Janet stared at him, touched, her heart racing.

Melvin stared right back, his eyes overflowing with tenderness and affection.

Just as they were locked in a deeply romantic gaze, a soft sound drifted from behind them.

Juniper had just stepped out of the restroom. She unhurriedly wiped the water from her hands, staring at them with a teasing half-smile. "Did I interrupt something?"
