Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1388

Staring at the person in front of him, Jimmie looked completely dazed, struggling to process the reality of the situation.

After all, his entire memory of Luella was tied to her masculine disguise, and the woman standing before him was breathtakingly beautiful.

Though, looking closely, their features were identical.

Wait.

Not identical. It was the same person.

"You—"

Jimmie's brows knit together. He took a hesitant, careful step toward her, his gaze locked intensely on her face. "Luella? Is that you?"

"Ugh!" Luella crossed her arms over her chest, her beautiful face scrunched up in a scowl. "Who else would I be?!"

Jimmie closed the distance between them, finally taking in every detail of her radiant features. Overwhelmed, he pulled her into a desperate, crushing embrace. "You're finally back."

"Yeah, yeah," Luella muttered, wrapping her arms around his waist but still grumbling. "What happened to 'I don't like being touched'? You're holding me pretty tight right now!"

"And you pushed me!"

The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she got. She pinched his side sharply. "I hit the table and my back is killing me. You owe me!"

You hit the table?

Jimmie frowned deeply. Noticing the curious stares from the surrounding staff, he grabbed her hand and practically dragged her toward his private lounge.

"Hey!"

Luella was still wearing heels, stumbling awkwardly as she tried to keep up.

Seeing this, Jimmie stopped, swept her off her feet, and carried her bridal-style.

Luella blinked, startled.

Before she could fully process it, the lounge door clicked open. Jimmie carried her straight into the bedroom, set her gently on the large bed, and immediately reached for the hem of her dress.

"What are you doing?"
