Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1250

"And soon, you'll have that same luck, too."

Juniper slipped the snack box into her bag, a faint curve on her lips. "See you tomorrow, Professor Dawson."

"Ah?"

Meeting the girl's smiling eyes, Professor Dawson felt a sudden flutter in his chest.

This kid agreed to come to the School of Medicine; he should be thrilled.

But when she smiled like that, why did he feel a chill running down his spine?!

"See you tomorrow, see you tomorrow. Hehe."

Professor Dawson shook his head vigorously.

After walking a short distance.

Her phone rang.

"Mom."

Juniper curled her red lips into a gentle smile.

"Are you out of class? Your father and I are prepping a family dinner at home. We're planning to invite Shanley's family over for a meal."

Theia's voice was warm.

An engagement was inherently a matter for both families, but the Schwartzes had been mindful of their recovery and thoughtfully handled everything without making them lift a finger.

Theia and Silas felt bad about doing nothing.

They had spent the whole day preparing a thank-you dinner.

"I'll head over right now," Juniper replied, softly reminding her, "You and Dad just recovered, don't overexert yourselves. Have..."

Juniper paused, mentally running through the options.

Her eldest brother was filming, her second brother was locked in his lab, her fourth sister was running the boxing gym, her fifth sister was pregnant, her sixth sister was back in Caelus...

Yeah.

Only Melvin had entirely too much free time.

Every day, he just hovered around race cars, signing invoices and modding vehicles.

"Have Melvin help you guys," Juniper decided.

"Oh, Melvin? We already dragged him back," Theia couldn't help but laugh. "Look, he's squatting on the floor peeling vegetables right now."

Saying that, Theia pointed her video camera directly at Melvin.

Melvin shot a glare at the screen, his smile more pained than crying.

Why did they act like he had nothing better to do?
