Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1657

Kurt stared at Ebony Fox's utterly unbothered expression, and the raging fire in his chest died down just a fraction.

That wasn’t a blank expression at all. She was clearly conserving her energy, preparing to absolutely destroy them.

Fine.

His girl wasn’t the type to suffer in silence anyway.

—

It was time.

The exhibition match was about to begin, starting with opening remarks from the organizer's representative.

Kurt took the opportunity to slide into the seat next to Ebony Fox, handing her a coffee he’d prepared beforehand.

“No ice, no sugar, double shot of espresso.”

“Thanks.”

Ebony Fox took it naturally and took a sip, instantly feeling more awake.

“No need to thank me. You know how it is between us.” Kurt flashed her a brilliant smile.

Ebony Fox was momentarily blinded by how ridiculously bright and youthful his smile was.

“Cough, cough—”

She drank too fast and accidentally choked, coughing loudly.

“Are you okay?”

Kurt immediately dropped into a crouch, grabbed a tissue, and gently dabbed the corner of her mouth.

Xavier Saxon had spent ages getting ready, walking onto the stage in a perfectly tailored suit, looking sharp and energized.

He had been scanning the live feed monitors, keeping an eye on the crowd.

It didn't take long for him to pinpoint Ebony Fox's seat.

“Good morning, everyone. I am the organizer of this boxing exhibition, Xavier Saxon.”

Xavier held the microphone, his gaze looking straight into the crowd.

Locking onto the girl he’d been dreaming of day and night.

But before his joy could even last a few seconds, he noticed someone crouching beside her.

A man.

The man was wiping her mouth, and Ebony Fox wasn't stopping him. She was actually talking to him.

From what he remembered...

Ebony Fox had always been aloof and untouchable, never letting anyone get close.

And now she was allowing a man to touch her face?

Who was he?

Xavier gripped the microphone tightly, staring at the 'intimate' scene, the rest of his speech dying in his throat.

“?”

The audience, who had their heads tilted up to listen, exchanged confused glances when Xavier suddenly stopped talking.
