Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1187

She had seen this person back at Wraithfall Mountain.

Her name was Nadia Norwood.

She was incredibly ruthless and completely treated the test subjects as less than human.

Rumor had it she used to be a colleague of her mother's. Later, she defected, colluded with Corvus, and had blood on her hands from the countless lives she'd ended.

"You—"

Nadia opened her mouth but couldn't find a single word to argue back.

She really couldn't do it.

After finishing the mango, Juniper resumed her work.

Three hours later.

All twenty test subjects had successfully received their gene modifications.

"To test the effectiveness of the research, these twenty subjects, who come from various fields, will return to the city."

Nadia announced, "The people from Sanctum Holdings will closely monitor their progress."

If the modification worked, they would display vastly superior abilities in their respective professions compared to before.

"Oh."

Juniper acted like she couldn't care less. She let out a yawn and said, "What needs to be done is done. You can all leave now, I need to catch up on some sleep."

With that, Juniper turned and walked into the bedroom, slamming the door shut with a loud bang.

Nadia's face flushed green and pale. She simply couldn't stand this obnoxious brat.

Indeed.

She was exactly like her mother, with that same insufferable attitude. What on earth did Corvus see in her?

Why couldn't he just look at someone else for a change?

She had been by his side for over twenty years, loyal and devoted.

Once this research succeeded, neither Specter nor Theia would be left alive.

She'd make sure of it.

Eclara City.

Shanley had just finished dealing with matters at Subterra Vanguard.

He was sitting in Juniper's room, lost in thought, when his phone suddenly rang.
