Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1698

"Sorry."

The assistant looked over her shoulder guiltily, then began her dramatic performance. "Ebony Fox, hurry and look! Kurt looks like he might be a little bit dead."

"Last time he called me weak." Xavier sneered coldly. "Who knows if he's just faking it?"

Ebony Fox pursed her lips, looking toward Kurt.

He had a high fever yesterday and got up at 4 AM to make her breakfast.

His body definitely hadn't recovered.

"Ebony Fox, how about I give him CPR?" Xavier planned to give him a taste of his own medicine.

Last time Kurt made him lose face, so he intended to take back everything he had lost this time.

Ebony Fox shot him a glance and walked over to Kurt.

She crouched down.

Her palm rested against his forehead; the temperature was terrifyingly high.

If his fever kept burning like this, wouldn't he turn into an idiot?

"Take him to the infirmary," Ebony Fox withdrew her hand and spoke softly.

"Ebony Fox, no need." Xavier leaned in, about to grab Kurt. "He's definitely using the same trick I used last time."

When chasing a girlfriend, faking a faint for attention was a major taboo.

Saying that.

Xavier reached out to pinch Kurt's mouth open.

"Hey?"

The assistant was startled. Just as she was about to stop him, Xavier's hand was suddenly shoved away.

The person who pushed him was none other than Ebony Fox.

"Don't touch him." Ebony Fox's expression was grave, her gaze turning frosty as she stared at Xavier.

Xavier was frightened by the icy glare in Ebony Fox's eyes, her cold aura rendering him speechless.

Why was Ebony Fox reacting like this?

Did she really like Kurt?

It was his first time seeing such an anxious expression on her face.

The assistant was startled by the low reprimand and silently lowered her head, barely hiding the smile creeping onto her lips.

So Ebony Fox did care about Kurt after all.

The assistant nodded, watching Ebony Fox leave, keeping her eyes on them until their figures disappeared.

Hearing the noise, Kurt completely dropped the act and sat straight up.

He nearly gave the doctor a heart attack.

"Mr. Schwartz, what's wrong?" The doctor held his shoulder, looking at the assistant. "Come help, he might be having a seizure."

"I'm fine."

Kurt pushed the doctor's hand away, looking at the assistant. "Where's Ebony Fox? Did she go see Xavier? What do they even have to talk about?"

"No, I need to go keep an eye on them. That bastard will take any opportunity he gets. He's terrifying!"

"Hey! Mr. Schwartz!" The assistant quickly called him back, speaking earnestly. "If you run out there now, won't Ebony Fox know you were playing dead?"

"Besides, there's no way Ebony Fox would ever fall for Xavier. Relax."

Whether she loved someone or not was actually quite obvious.

Kurt thought about it and silently lay back down.

The doctor beside him asked, "Playing dead?"

Kurt looked at him, deadpan. "Promise me you heard nothing."
