Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 589

The security was impeccable. After dinner, the group headed directly to Moonlight Peak's private parking garage.

"Once I'm done with work, I'll come find you," Ebony Fox said, holding Juniper's hand, reluctant to let go. "We'll chat online, okay?"

"Okay," Juniper nodded obediently. She reached into her pocket, pulled out a handful of mango-flavored candies, and placed them in Ebony Fox's bag. "For you."

"Candy?" Ebony Fox was a little surprised; she wasn't much of a fan of sweets.

"Juniper loves candy," Shanley explained from the side. "She only gives it to people she likes. Getting candy from her… is the highest honor."

"Really?" Ebony Fox's heart melted as she felt the colorful wrappers in her hand. "Thank you, Juniper," she said softly. "I'll eat every single one."

"Take care on the road, sis" Juniper said, her lips curving into a sweet smile as she met Ebony Fox's gaze.

"I will." The word “sis” sent a wave of warmth through Ebony Fox. It was sweeter than any candy. "Be good. I have to go."

After saying her goodbyes, she turned with a smile, only to find Jimmie staring at her.

Her smile instantly froze, her expression turning awkward. Right. She'd almost forgotten. By accepting a sister, she'd also inherited three brothers.

"You guys…"

At the sound of her voice, the three brothers looked at her expectantly.

"Goodbye to you, too," she finished flatly, then slipped into the passenger seat without another glance, her smile gone. "Drive."

Watching the car speed away, Jimmie, Harold, and Melvin were utterly speechless. What was that about? Weren't they all from the same mother? She was all smiles for Juniper, but for them… The favoritism was just too blatant!

In the other car, Ebony Fox took out the candies and examined them. A smile bloomed on her face.

"Holy hell," the man in the driver's seat muttered, his eyes nearly popping out of his head. Was he seeing things? Ebony Fox was smiling? That was terrifying.

"Where'd you get the candies?" her subordinate asked, reaching over. "What flavors are they? Let me try one."

"Get your hands off," Ebony Fox snapped, her expression instantly turning cold as she carefully put candies away. Her sharp gaze shot towards him. "Head to the eastern district base. The training facility issue is resolved."

"The Schwartz Group's eastern facility?" her subordinate asked, both surprised and confused. "Ebony Fox, how did you manage that? The Schwartz family is notoriously difficult to do business with."

How did she manage it? Ebony Fox's face fell. She'd nearly paid for it with her life.
