Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1696

"Received. Thanks, Shanley!"

After replying, Kurt immediately started his sports car, preparing to orchestrate an "accidental" encounter.

After sending the message, Shanley suddenly realized something.

If Kurt succeeded in winning his wife, how would the family hierarchy work out?

If they went by Ebony Fox's status... Wouldn't he be demoted in seniority and have to call Kurt his brother-in-law?

That was completely backwards!

...

Downstairs.

Carrying her bag, Ebony Fox reached the parking lot only to realize she had left her car keys in Juniper's room.

Going back up would definitely wake her.

After thinking it over, Ebony Fox decided to call a cab.

While she was looking around, a black sedan pulled up beside her. The window rolled down, revealing Kurt's handsome but slightly sickly face.

"What a coincidence."

Kurt stared at her, flashing a brilliant smile. "Meeting like this must be fate. Get in, I'll give you a ride."

"No need." Ebony Fox looked at him blankly, her red lips moving. "I called a car."

"Check your phone. I bet nobody took your ride." Kurt looked entirely confident. "This is a famous high-end residential area in Eclara City. Private cars aren't allowed in."

Ebony Fox didn't believe him and checked her phone.

The driver had canceled the order.

She believed it now.

"I'll go back and get my keys." Ebony Fox turned to leave.

"Getting them won't help." Kurt stayed exactly where he was, speaking unhurriedly. "There are driving restrictions today. Your car isn't allowed inside the third ring road."

Ebony Fox checked the news on her phone. He was right.

"Walking from here to the designated taxi pickup zone takes at least forty minutes."

Kurt glanced at the overcast sky and spoke with earnest concern. "The weather forecast says it's going to rain soon. You just recovered from a cold. Don't push yourself."

"If it really bothers you, just treat me like an Uber driver. Just pay the fare."

After weighing her options, Ebony Fox eventually got into Kurt's car.

Afraid he would misunderstand, she deliberately handed him the cash upfront.
