Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1699

"Right, I didn't hear anything." The doctor stared awkwardly out the window. He couldn't afford to offend the Schwartz family's spoiled heir.

Outside the door.

Xavier and Ebony Fox stood facing each other.

"Ebony Fox, do you like Kurt?" Xavier cut straight to the chase, asking directly.

Ebony Fox stared at him, remained silent for a few seconds, then slowly spoke. "Regardless of whether I like him or not, I will never like you."

Xavier choked on his words. Although she didn't give a direct answer, he knew Ebony Fox liked Kurt.

"Why?"

Xavier's eyes grew red-rimmed as he couldn't help but ask, "If you can like him, why can't you like me? Compared to him, where do I fall short?"

"Tell me, and I can definitely change it."

"Not liking someone just means I don't like them." Ebony Fox's expression was indifferent, her voice distant. "Not liking you is the biggest reason."

Just as Kurt had said, he didn't know why he liked her either.

He just did.

"Do I really have absolutely no chance left?" Xavier stared at her, looking so aggrieved he was about to cry.

Ebony Fox didn't reply; her silence said it all.

"I understand." Xavier lowered his head, letting out a helpless smile. "From now on, I won't bother you again."

"Thank you for understanding." Ebony Fox nodded. "You can go to the finance office and get a refund for your enrollment fee."

"No need, just transfer it to the other students." Xavier had lost all interest, speaking bitterly. "They genuinely want to learn some self-defense."

Ebony Fox pursed her lips. "I'll be going then."

"Ebony Fox." Looking at her retreating back, Xavier suddenly spoke up again. "If, and I mean if, things don't work out between you and Kurt, I'll be back."

Ebony Fox frowned, instinctively quickening her pace.

Whether they worked out or not, she didn't like him.

He was just endless trouble.

In the infirmary.

When Ebony Fox returned, Kurt had his eyes tightly shut, an IV drip hooked up to his hand.
