Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 797

"Ms. Payne, Mr. Schwartz, please, continue," Dana said, holding the cake in one hand and shielding her eyes with the other as she tried to make a hasty retreat.

"Dana—" Juniper shot up from the sofa and ran toward her. "I want the cake!"

"Ah?" Dana froze, then risked a peek back at the man whose face had turned storm-black. She forced a smile that looked more like a grimace. He wouldn't dock her pay for interrupting him, would he?

—

Three days later, a disguised Juniper walked into the living room, carrying a bag.

"Ms. Payne, you're awa—" Dana, holding a pot of soup, turned and was so shocked to see a handsome young man that she almost dropped it.

Who was this? Where was her Ms. Payne?

Just as Dana was about to scream for help, Juniper spoke calmly. "Dana, it's me."

"Ms. Payne?" Dana rubbed her eyes, afraid they were deceiving her. "How did you... end up like this?"

The neat short hair, the handsome features, the sharp suit... she was completely transformed, and incredibly dashing. Even an old woman like her couldn't help but feel her heart flutter.

"Mm," Juniper said, tossing her bag onto the sofa. "I have some business to take care of."

"Oh." The voice and mannerisms were identical to Ms. Payne's, so Dana didn't doubt her, though she still found it a bit strange.

A short while later, Shanley came downstairs, having just finished some work in his study. He was on the phone, his tone glacial and his presence intimidatingly powerful.

"Cancel all of them. And..."

He was about to give another order when his eyes met those of the person at the dining table. Or rather, the "boy" at the dining table.

He knew Juniper was going to be in disguise, but he never expected it to be this convincing. She looked exactly like a man—and a handsome one at that.

"Mr. Schwartz, is there anything else?" the executive on the phone asked cautiously when he didn't continue.
