Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1806

"When we get married in the future, you'll see just how high a woman's status is in the Schwartz family."

Marriage?

Thinking back to when she proposed to him, Ebony Fox's face flushed with heat.

"What are you thinking about?"

Kurt murmured, suddenly leaning in closer. "My wound hurts a little. I want to take some more painkillers."

"If it hurts, find a doctor. I don't know how to heal people." Ebony Fox shoved his face away. "Go to sleep by yourself. I'm going to go check on the Ainsworth family situation."

Kurt wanted to help her, but his spirit was willing while his flesh was weak. He could only stare blankly at the ceiling.

This injury really came at the worst possible time.

In the next room.

Ebony Fox and Juniper stood on the balcony, each holding a lollipop.

"All the evidence is prepped and ready. We can pull the net shut anytime."

Juniper parted her red lips. "I heard Grandma and Grandpa came by earlier."

"Yeah." Ebony Fox nodded slightly, feeling quite awkward. "Hannah just added me on social media and sent me a ton of photos, telling me to pick what I like."

"!"

Seeing the items in the photos, Juniper's eyebrows shot up, a smile tugging at her lips. "Grandma genuinely likes you. Several of these are her most prized possessions."

"I don't really want to accept them." Ebony Fox pursed her lips. "These jewels are far too valuable, and I have no use for them."

"And besides, Kurt and I are just dating..."

"You already proposed to him," Juniper blinked, deliberately teasing her.

"Juniper..."

Ebony Fox instantly turned her head to glare at her, her eyes brimming with deep resentment.

If it hadn't been for her and that dog Kurt plotting together to trick her.

Why on earth would she have ever proposed to Kurt?

It was humiliating to the extreme.

"My bad, my bad." Juniper threw her hands up in apology.

"You... you little menace." Ebony Fox truly couldn't muster any real anger towards her younger sister.

She gently pinched Juniper's cheek, sighing helplessly. "I really don't know what to do with you."

"It's too late now. Go back and get some rest."
