Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 890

The party ended, and Juniper received a message from Shanley: “Outside.”

The group walked out of the private room. “Juniper, your birthday is next Wednesday, right?” Qadir asked.

“Hmm?” Juniper paused for a second before answering slowly, “I guess so.” Because she had no family, she never knew her real birthday. Later, her grandfather had designated the day he adopted her as her birthday. He remembered it every year. But this year… there would be no little old man to bring her a cake and sing ‘Happy Birthday.’

“I’m not planning on celebrating,” Juniper said, shaking her head, her expression darkening. “Qadir, you take Queenie and Dolce. Janet, you’re with me.”

“Okay.” The others didn’t dare to argue or mention it again.

Outside, a black sports car was parked under a large tree. A man in a long trench coat stood beside it, his posture tall and his aura noble. “Hi, Mr. Schwartz,” Janet greeted him as he opened the car door for them.

“Hi,” Shanley replied, his lips curving into a smile, his tone much gentler. “Mrs. Payne is still recovering. I’ll have Felton send over some nutritional supplements later.”

“Thank you,” Janet said politely.

They had to film the show the next day. After dropping Janet home, Shanley drove Juniper to the filming location. “I’m done with my work at the company. How about I stay with you?” Shanley suddenly took her hand, his voice a soft murmur. “Last time I saw you, you had dark circles under your eyes. Not sleeping well is bad for you.”

“Stay with me?” Juniper looked at him seriously, hesitating. “There will be a lot of people. Aren’t you afraid of being discovered?”
