Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1711

Shanley murmured in agreement, secretly breathing a sigh of relief. "Managing to win over Coach Ebony Fox is pretty impressive. If I were his father, I'd give him a dedicated chapter in the family history."

Family history?

Hearing those words, Juniper Payne suddenly pushed herself up, leaning over Shanley.

"Hmm?"

Shanley quickly supported her waist, adjusting his position so she could rest comfortably.

"Ebony Fox mentioned to me before that his mother wanted to match him with someone of equal social standing and age," she said. "Will Aunt Monique disapprove?"

Shanley frowned heavily, avoiding a direct answer. "My aunt values Kurt immensely. When it comes to his marriage, she will absolutely interfere."

"Whatever."

Juniper sighed softly, nestling back into the man's embrace. "Anyway, if Kurt Schwartz ever dares to make Ebony Fox suffer, his life will be a living hell."

"Aunt Monique isn't a bad person. She's got a sharp tongue but a soft heart, so she'll come around."

Shanley murmured, gently stroking the girl's hair to comfort her.

The next day.

Six o'clock.

Juniper threw off the covers and got out of bed to change.

"Don't you have the day off from classes today?" Shanley woke up, his eyes still heavy with sleep.

"I'm going to stake out Ebony Fox's place," Juniper said as she got dressed, glancing back at Shanley. "Are you coming?"

"Stake out?"

Shanley didn't quite understand, but he still got up, dressed, and grabbed her bag.

"I need to get to the bottom of this," Juniper answered seriously.

"Alright."

Shanley offered a faint smile, starting up the sports car and heading toward Ebony Fox's residence.

They arrived at the destination.

It was barely seven-thirty in the morning. At this hour, Ebony Fox hadn't even left for the gym yet.

Juniper called her. "Ebony Fox, are you home?"

"Yeah, I'm here."

Ebony Fox was in the middle of breakfast, holding her phone with her left hand while keeping an eye on the man frying eggs in her kitchen.

"Yeah."

Kurt glanced at their intertwined fingers, his voice turning pitiful. "Can I at least get a kiss? Just on the cheek!"

Ebony Fox shot him a look, swiftly withdrawing her hand, her voice turning cold again. "Don't push your luck!"

She slammed the door shut.

Kurt was left speechless.

After a frantic struggle.

Ebony Fox composed herself and opened the door. "What brings you here so suddenly?"

Juniper didn't reply. Instead, she walked right in, looking around the place like a detective on a case.

On the dining table, there was only one serving of breakfast, but two placemats were laid out.

The kitchen lights were still on, and the rich scent of fried eggs filled the air.

Her dear friend didn't even know how to fry eggs.

And this breakfast spread... why did it smell so familiar?

Her close friend was definitely hiding a man in her house.
