Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1690

*Ahhhhhhhh—*

Standing on the sidelines, the assistant clenched her fists, the silent scream practically tearing out of her body.

Was this a real confession?

Would Ebony Fox say yes?

This older-woman-younger-man romance was way too good!

"What?"

Xavier froze. He thought Kurt would deny it, never expecting him to confess so bluntly.

"Listen carefully. I love Ebony Fox." Kurt turned to face Ebony Fox, his expression completely serious as he enunciated every single syllable. "I've loved her from the very first moment I laid eyes on her."

"I never, ever saw her as a sister. From the day I walked into this gym, to cooking three meals a day for her—every single step was just to get closer to her."

"There's no 'two-timing,' and there was never a blind date. In this lifetime, the only woman I, Kurt Schwartz, want to marry is Ebony Fox."

Ebony Fox blinked, her eyes meeting Kurt's, her mind blanking out entirely.

What the hell?

The person Kurt liked was her?

"She's your sister-in-law's sister!" Xavier scrambled up, exasperated. "If you do this, will your brother and sister-in-law even agree? Where exactly are you placing Ebony Fox in all this?"

"Placing?"

Knowing Xavier was just trying to sow discord, Kurt sneered, speaking without a shred of hesitation. "I place her right in the center of my heart. As my girlfriend, my wife, my absolute sovereign—whatever she wants."

"As for being my sister-in-law's sister?"

Kurt let out a cold laugh, glaring frostily at Xavier. "Welcome to the twenty-first century. We have zero blood relation. Why wouldn't we be able to be together?"

"At worst, we just keep the titles separate. I'll call Juniper my sister-in-law, and she can call her sister. It literally affects nothing."

Xavier was completely dizzy from the logic. His mouth hung open, utterly unable to find a single counter-argument.

He could only look at Ebony Fox.

Kurt stepped right up, completely blocking Xavier's line of sight, and lowered his voice for Ebony Fox. "I told you before that the person I like was at this gym."

"That person is you."

"Ebony Fox, I'm in love with you. Will you be my girlfriend?"

Kurt's fingers tightened. His expression was a bundle of nerves and slight frustration.

He had originally pre-ordered flowers and a reservation at a fancy Western restaurant, planning to formally confess to her tonight.
