Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1871

Coralie curled up on the sofa, a profound sense of loneliness washing over her.

She wrapped her arms tightly around herself, tears slipping uncontrollably from the corners of her eyes.

She didn't know how much longer she could hold on!

——

Outside the door.

Shanley hadn't waited in the car. After glancing around, he headed straight for the bar's back entrance.

"Boss, where are you going?" Felton asked in confusion.

"Where am I going?"

Shanley curled his lips into a smirk. "To catch a little fox who's trying to sneak away."

Felton: "?"

At the back exit.

Juniper, bundled up securely in a hat and a face mask, walked briskly outside.

She was on the phone with Dana as she walked. "Are you saying he left the house three hours ago?"

The drive from the villa to the bar was only forty minutes.

If he was coming specifically to catch her, he should have arrived ages ago.

"Are you sure he's looking for me?" Juniper muttered under her breath.

She had been having too much fun earlier and hadn't checked her phone.

Only to realize Dana had tried to warn her a long time ago.

"I'm positive," Dana replied with certainty. "When he got home, he suddenly received a call, and his expression turned terrible."

"I vaguely heard something about you being at a bar, watching male models do the leg-sweep dance..."

Juniper stiffened.

He even knew about the leg-sweep dance. She was definitely busted.

"Alright, I got it." Juniper pressed her lips together.

She hung up and quickened her pace.

Was that frustrating man so angry about her watching male models and not replying to his messages that he ran away from home?

Otherwise, where had he been for three whole hours?
