“It took a lot of effort to win her over,” Qadir said, grinning like a fool, both proud and happy. “You have to keep the good things in the family, right? Besides, I’d rather a great girl like her be with me than let some other guy get her.”

“Oh, shut up.” Queenie gave him a light kick, smiling awkwardly. “Juniper, don’t listen to his nonsense.”

“It’s great,” Juniper said, chewing on a spicy jerky stick with a raised eyebrow. “If he ever gives you trouble, just tell me. I’ll take care of him.”

“Never, never,” Qadir quickly pledged his loyalty. “I can’t love her enough as it is.”

“Ooh, ‘can’t love her enough as it is’,” Dolce mimicked, before she and Janet burst into laughter. Queenie was so embarrassed she wished the ground would swallow her whole. This boyfriend of hers was truly insufferable. She was starting to regret saying yes.

“By the way, Juniper, when are you and Mr. Schwartz going public?” Qadir asked, his words muffled as he gnawed on a chicken wing. Recently, rumors had started circulating around school that Juniper had a boyfriend. Not just one, either. He had no idea who started such a ridiculous rumor.

Hearing this, Juniper pressed her lips together. “In a while,” she said quietly. Shanley was in the middle of a major international case, and she had the show to film. Announcing their relationship now would completely overshadow the show's publicity, and she didn't want to cause any trouble for Miranda.

Later, Juniper went to the restroom. On her way back, she ran into Jerrold in the hallway. “What are you doing here?” he asked, reeking of alcohol and clearly surprised to see her.

“None of your business.” Juniper shot him a cold glance and tried to walk past.

“Trying to earn some money?” Jerrold blocked her path. The alcohol had gone to his head, and the scent of her perfume made his mind wander. “Juniper, are you that desperate for cash?” He let out a cold, superior laugh. “You know, with your looks, you could easily find a rich and powerful boyfriend.” If he remembered correctly, her current boyfriend was a broke nobody.
