Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1402

"Alright."

Juniper nodded, her red lips parting slightly. "I'll try to swing by if I have the time."

"Awesome!"

Jenna beamed, and before darting off, she shoved a heavy bag of treats into Juniper's arms. "Thanks again for the case files!"

With that, she sprinted away.

Juniper glanced down at the massive stash of snacks, an involuntary smile lifting her brow.

Now this was a gift that spoke directly to her soul.

Swinging the bag happily, she strolled toward the campus gates, only to nearly collide with Yolanda Sherwin.

Guilt-ridden and terrified of retribution, Yolanda stumbled back two steps, staring at Juniper with wide, panicked eyes.

Ever since Nadia had been hauled away, Yolanda had completely lost contact with her.

It didn't take a genius to figure out that Nadia was likely gone for good.

For days, Yolanda had been living in a state of sheer terror, waiting for the moment Shanley and Juniper came to settle the score.

Oddly enough, nothing had happened.

Juniper stared blankly at Yolanda for a few seconds before walking right past her, not even sparing her a second glance.

Yolanda turned, staring at Juniper's retreating figure with a deep frown.

Could Nadia have been right? Was her grandfather truly her ultimate shield?

Juniper must be backing off out of respect for her family's patriarch.

That had to be it.

At that thought, Yolanda exhaled a massive breath of relief and sauntered off, happily humming a little tune.

Back at the Cloudscape Community.

Fresh out of the shower, Juniper lounged on the sofa and glanced at the man typing away on his laptop.

It only took one look for him to abandon his work.

Shanley grabbed the hairdryer, walked over, and gently began drying her hair.
