Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 902

"Can you?"

He had just made the relationship official and suddenly found the nerve to ask such a reckless question.

"What do you think?" Juniper retorted without a trace of a smile.

"I think..." Shanley choked on his words, hesitating for a few seconds before laughing awkwardly. "I wouldn't dare push my luck."

"Well, at least you know your place." Juniper reached out and lightly stroked his chin, raising an eyebrow. "Were you that certain I'd marry you so early on?"

"I wasn't sure at first," Shanley admitted, wrapping his hand around hers with a growing smile. "But then I noticed you liked my face, and my money, so I figured I had a pretty good shot."

Juniper was speechless. He made it sound like she was some superficial gold digger. Everyone appreciates beauty, and as for wealth, she believed in earning it the right way. But when a handsome man willingly hands over himself and his fortune, who was she to refuse?

"I'll make sure to put on a good performance from now on." Shanley leaned in and pressed a gentle kiss to her cheek. "I'll work hard to get promoted from boyfriend to husband as soon as possible."

"Then you better work hard."

Before they knew it, they had wandered upstairs. Every detail of the design hit Juniper right in the heart. She was in a great mood, and her words reflected it. Just as she was inspecting a decorative piece out of curiosity, her eyes were suddenly covered.

"Shanley..." Plunged into sudden darkness, Juniper immediately tensed up.

"Don't be afraid, it's me." Shanley held her hand, his voice a soft murmur. "I have one more thing to show you."

After that, Juniper was led blindly by Shanley to some unknown spot in the house.
