Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1806

"When we get married in the future, you'll see just how high a woman's status is in the Schwartz family."

Marriage?

Thinking back to when she proposed to him, Ebony Fox's face flushed with heat.

"What are you thinking about?"

Kurt murmured, suddenly leaning in closer. "My wound hurts a little. I want to take some more painkillers."

"If it hurts, find a doctor. I don't know how to heal people." Ebony Fox shoved his face away. "Go to sleep by yourself. I'm going to go check on the Ainsworth family situation."

Kurt wanted to help her, but his spirit was willing while his flesh was weak. He could only stare blankly at the ceiling.

This injury really came at the worst possible time.

In the next room.

Ebony Fox and Juniper stood on the balcony, each holding a lollipop.

"All the evidence is prepped and ready. We can pull the net shut anytime."

Juniper parted her red lips. "I heard Grandma and Grandpa came by earlier."

"Yeah." Ebony Fox nodded slightly, feeling quite awkward. "Hannah just added me on social media and sent me a ton of photos, telling me to pick what I like."

"!"

Seeing the items in the photos, Juniper's eyebrows shot up, a smile tugging at her lips. "Grandma genuinely likes you. Several of these are her most prized possessions."

"I don't really want to accept them." Ebony Fox pursed her lips. "These jewels are far too valuable, and I have no use for them."

"And besides, Kurt and I are just dating..."

"You already proposed to him," Juniper blinked, deliberately teasing her.

"Juniper..."

Ebony Fox instantly turned her head to glare at her, her eyes brimming with deep resentment.

If it hadn't been for her and that dog Kurt plotting together to trick her.

Why on earth would she have ever proposed to Kurt?

It was humiliating to the extreme.

"My bad, my bad." Juniper threw her hands up in apology.

"You... you little menace." Ebony Fox truly couldn't muster any real anger towards her younger sister.

She gently pinched Juniper's cheek, sighing helplessly. "I really don't know what to do with you."

"It's too late now. Go back and get some rest."

On the other side of the city.

Annie had sneaked out to have fun and was caught red-handed by Mrs. Ainsworth right as she returned.

"With the situation the way it is, you still dare to wander around?" Mrs. Ainsworth almost passed out from anger, pointing a trembling finger at Annie. "If Ebony Fox finds out you're in Eclara City, you won't even know how you died."

"That old hag has no time to care about me right now."

Annie let out a drunken hiccup, completely intoxicated. "I heard Kurt got into a car crash and is paralyzed from the waist down. He might never walk again."

"And Ebony Fox was fighting me for him? Look at her now. She snatched up a useless cripple."

At this, Annie burst into wild laughter, full of relief and smugness. "Thank God I didn't marry him, or I'd be a widow in practice."

Mrs. Ainsworth was stunned for a moment. If she had been with Kurt.

Kurt wouldn't have gone abroad, and naturally, this accident would never have happened.

Not to mention.

Kurt's sister-in-law was Juniper Payne, the world-renowned Dr. Nocturne.

There was no way she couldn't cure him.

Kurt had already returned to the country last night and was currently recovering in the Schwartz family's private hospital.
