Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 677

“Thank you.” Juniper picked up a piece of fruit, but just as she was about to eat it, Miranda spoke again.

“Juniper, what on earth do you see in our Shanley?”

Juniper paused mid-chew, her eyes lifting in confusion.

“Don’t get me wrong,” Miranda quickly clarified. “I’m just incredibly curious how he managed to win you over.”

A top scholar, a master dancer, a jewelry designer, and apparently a skilled race car driver... On top of all that, she was a phenomenal gamer. Honestly, the girl was practically a prodigy, and she was only eighteen. What could she possibly see in Shanley? Miranda genuinely couldn’t fathom it.

“Shanley’s had a strange personality since he was a child. He’s always been cold to everyone and never let any girls get close,” Miranda said, airing all her son’s dirty laundry. “We used to suspect he was into men, ha ha ha.”

Shanley’s face turned ashen as he listened to his mother’s laughter.

“Is that so?” Juniper, however, found the laughter contagious. A smile touched her lips as she replied softly, “I thought he might be into men at first, too.”

“Thankfully not.” Miranda found craning her neck uncomfortable, so she simply ordered Shanley to get up. They swapped seats, and she happily plopped down next to Juniper, continuing their chat. “Juniper, you’re not even nineteen yet, are you?”

“That’s right,” Juniper nodded.

“Tsk.” Miranda glanced at Shanley with a look of mock disdain. “Well, thank you.”

“Hm?” The thanks came so suddenly that Juniper was caught off guard.

“If it weren’t for you, Shanley would have probably died alone,” Miranda said, pulling no punches.
