Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1625

Shanley stared at her darkly, his gaze freezing cold. If looks were daggers, Luella suspected she'd have been sliced to ribbons by now.

We're doomed, doomed, doomed.

"Juniper, maybe I should get out of here first." Luella tugged at her clothes. "If the old fox knows, Jimmie probably knows too. I need to go home and play dead."

"Look at the door." Juniper moved her red lips, muttering softly. "Does that guy look a bit like Jimmie?"

Luella: "?"

Once she got a clear look.

Luella: "!"

She frantically grabbed a passing waiter, asking desperately, "Is there a back door? Does this place have a back door? Ahhh!"

"N-No."

The waiter felt like his brains were being shaken loose by her.

"Take care, bestie."

Luella instantly deflated like a wilted flower. She patted Juniper's shoulder and looked cowardly at Jimmie. "Um, listen to me lie—no, listen to my explanation..."

Shanley wore a mask, hiding the expression on his face.

But Jimmie didn't, and his face was terrifyingly dark, blacker than charcoal.

Jimmie looked at the shirtless men on stage, then at a guilty Luella, and said in a low voice, "Alright, explain."

"Tomorrow is Juniper's wedding, so we thought we'd just blow off some steam."

Luella pinched Jimmie's fingers, explaining cautiously, "We originally just wanted to go sing karaoke. Who knew we'd open our eyes and end up here."

Jimmie stared at her blankly, with a 'do you think I'm buying this' look on his face.

"Um..."

Seeing Jimmie didn't believe her, Luella scrambled for words guiltily. "It was just to relax, we didn't do anything."

"Let's go home."

Jimmie reversed his grip to hold her hand, his expression calm. "We can settle this score slowly once we get back."

"Juniper, save me!"

Luella cried out for help. Juniper opened her mouth, met Shanley's gaze, and silently closed it again.

The model weakly glanced at Shanley, his legs nearly giving out from fear. "Boss, this has nothing to do with me. Your girlfriend wanted to spend money to buy me for two days."

"Buy you?"

Shanley looked him up and down, completely consumed by jealousy, and turned to glare angrily at Juniper. "Is he handsomer than me?"

Juniper shook her head.

"Does he have a better body than me?"

Juniper continued to shake her head.

"Is he richer than me? Better at making you happy?"

Juniper: "No."

"Then tell me, what exactly do you see in him?" Shanley was furious but didn't dare explode.

What if he spoke too harshly and his wife just bolted from the wedding tomorrow?!

Sneaking out to find young guys before the wedding.

They weren't even married yet, and she was already bored of him?
