Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 726

After searching the room and finding no trace of Juniper, Shanley was about to check flight information when a voice called out.

“Mr. Schwartz, what are you still doing here?”

It was Tucker, returning to the hotel in high spirits with a bag of snacks.

“Did Juniper contact you?” Shanley asked, turning around and forcing himself to remain calm.

“Yeah,” Tucker replied nonchalantly, popping a corn chip into his mouth. “She said something came up and she had to fly home early. What? You didn't know, Mr. Schwartz?”

Shanley’s lips thinned, but he said nothing.

“She really didn’t tell you?” Tucker assumed Juniper was just being difficult and couldn’t help but click his tongue. “That girl. How could she leave without telling her elders?”

He thought he could see how much it had angered Mr. Schwartz; the man’s face was practically black.

Felton and Flint frantically tried to signal him to stop. Their boss was already miserable about being “dumped” by Ms. Payne, and now he was being called an “elder.” The situation was just tragic.

Had the two of them fought? Tucker thought. No, that didn't seem right. His master, Juniper, had a temper, but she wasn’t unreasonable. To make her angry enough to storm off… who knew what this Mr. Schwartz had done to her.

Tucker’s expression soured. He had no interest in talking to someone who bullied his master, so he turned on his heel and left.

Staring at the empty room, Shanley felt a sharp, intense pain in his chest. “Felton, check the flights.”

“Boss, Ms. Payne is indeed on her way home,” Felton reported immediately. “Her plane took off two minutes ago.”

“Pack our things. We’re going back to Eclara City,” Shanley said, sinking wearily onto the sofa and staring up at the white ceiling. “And make arrangements for Tucker.”

“Yes, sir.” Felton and Flint immediately went to handle it.
