Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1877

Whenever night fell, the crushing guilt would inevitably wash over her.

She felt like she was constantly violently swinging between Channing and Ari.

They were like two invisible hands, fiercely dragging her in entirely opposite directions.

She felt as though she was being torn apart. There wasn't a single physical wound, yet her entire body ached so profoundly it felt suffocating.

"Stop doing this..."

Staring at the cake, she mumbled to herself, "Channing, stop doing these thankless things for me."

"Ms. Quill, what was that?" He hadn't quite caught what she said.

"Nothing." She pressed her lips together and replied softly, "I'm just feeling a little tired. You should get some sleep too."

"Next time I call you in the middle of the night, don't pick up."

She had already formed a dangerous habit, and breaking it was going to take some time.

After hanging up.

She sat frozen on the sofa, staring blankly at the cake and lemonade.

She had rejected this terrifying realization in her heart countless times.

Falling for Channing?

How could she possibly fall for anyone other than Ari?

But the harder she denied it, the more his actions forcefully reminded her.

She really was falling in love with him.

She was in love with Channing.

The more she dwelled on it.

The more nauseated she felt, sharp bursts of pain piercing through her chest.

The agony forced her into a crouch on the floor, clutching her chest as tears streamed freely down her face.

She genuinely had absolutely no idea what to do.

And so.

A horrifying thought blossomed in her mind.

Maybe dying was the only actual solution.

——

In Caelus.

Sensing that Coralie's mood was completely off, Channing instantly called his subordinate.

"What's the situation with her?"

The subordinate was thoroughly confused by the question and answered honestly. "Governor, she's asleep at the hotel. Everything seems completely normal."

"Are you sure?"
