Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 731

"We'll be fine after a little rest, Specter."

"Get them out," Juniper said, not wasting another breath on them. With a flick of her hand, several orderlies moved in and carried them out on stretchers.

Juniper then called Luella and told her to dispatch doctors from the main headquarters. "I'll give them the treatment protocol."

Once everything was arranged, Juniper returned to the lab.

"All of you, go rest. Come back tomorrow morning to relieve me." She sat down at a console and started reviewing the experiment data. Seeing their hesitation, she added, "Did you not hear me?"

"Yes, Specter."

The researchers finally stood up and left the lab. In an instant, the massive laboratory was empty, save for Juniper herself.

Good. Her mind was in turmoil anyway; having something to focus on would help her calm down. As for Shanley... that old bastard. He thought he was so tough, so arrogant? She'd give him the cold shoulder for a while, knock him down a peg.

With that settled, Juniper dove into the experiment's problems. Immersed in her research, the time slipped by, and soon it was late into the night.

At Cloudscape Community.

Shanley sat in the living room. He hadn't changed his clothes, combed his hair, or eaten a single bite. He just sat on the sofa, staring blankly at the front door.

It was three in the morning. Didn't Juniper have trouble sleeping? Didn't she need him by her side to fall asleep? Why wasn't she home?

She wasn't at Cloudscape Community, and she wasn't at any of her other places. Where could she have gone?
