Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1673

Assistant: Ah—

What name could there be? She couldn't exactly call it "Kurt's Private Kitchen," could she?!

The assistant urgently texted Kurt: [What do I do? What do I do? She's asking for the restaurant's name!!!]

Kurt instructed her on what to reply.

Assistant: [Ebony Fox, did it suit your taste? If you want to keep eating there, the restaurant can cater three meals a day and deliver right to your door.]

They were that accommodating?

The corners of Ebony Fox's lips curled up as she typed: [Alright, set up a subscription for me, thanks.]

Assistant: [You're welcome, Ebony Fox.]

It was just that—

Mr. Schwartz was about to go from being a sidekick to a full-time personal chef.

Sigh.

Chasing a girlfriend was turning out to be far too difficult.

——

The next day.

Ebony Fox was still half-asleep when her phone suddenly rang.

The delivery guy reminded her that her breakfast had arrived.

Seven thirty.

It was almost too punctual.

Ebony Fox took it and discovered Pork Ravioli, paired with a soft-boiled egg.

There was also a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice.

She loved drinking orange juice the most.

When Kurt was around, he would make it for her every day.

Kurt—

Unconsciously thinking of his name again, Ebony Fox furrowed her brows slightly.

Why was she always thinking about him?

It seemed she had simply been too idle lately; she needed to find things to occupy her time.

After finishing breakfast.

Ebony Fox wrapped up her workout and headed to the studio.

She had a business meeting scheduled halfway through the day at a restaurant downtown.

She instructed her assistant to keep her lunch in a thermal container once it was delivered.

Then, she made her way to the restaurant.

——

Meanwhile.

Kurt had just finished cooking the last dish, packed it into the box, and handed it to the delivery courier.

The courier squinted at him. "Sir, why do you look so familiar? You look a bit like the younger Mr. Schwartz!"

His leg injury from a previous racing accident had made major headlines.

Next to her sat a bag worth tens of thousands, and the jewelry dripping off her was too much to count.

Flashy and extravagant, she looked like a walking display case.

Nothing like his Ebony Fox... Simple and understated, rocking short sleeves and long pants every day, yet still effortlessly beautiful.

"Kurt!"

Seeing him approach, the girl immediately stood up and greeted him, "It's so great to see you again."

"Is it?"

Kurt's lips twitched as he replied casually, "You might be celebrating a bit too early."

The girl: "?"

——

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Ebony Fox pushed open the doors of the restaurant, following the address provided by her business partner.

She scanned the room.

And happened to spot Kurt sitting in the corner.

Ebony Fox: "?"

Shifting her gaze slightly, she saw the girl sitting across from him.

If she remembered correctly.

That looked like the girlfriend Mrs. Schwartz had found for Kurt.

Were the two of them on a date?
