Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 907

"No, no, no." Catching the implication in his brother's words, Kurt immediately waved his hands in denial. "If we get married, we'll keep the relationships separate."

He didn't have a death wish; he would never dare expect Shanley to call him brother-in-law.

"Married?" The amusement in Shanley's eyes deepened. It was as if he'd just heard a hilarious joke, and he couldn't resist knocking his brother down a peg. "You sure know how to dream."

"Ebony Fox isn't like the trivial girls you mess around with. She's not a woman you can win over just by buying her a designer bag and beckoning her with a finger."

"She's older than you, and she's been through a lot more than you have. You two aren't suited for each other. Don't provoke her."

Ebony's personality was the complete opposite of Kurt's. One was fiercely independent and quiet, while the other was a restless playboy.

"We haven't even tried dating yet, how do you know we aren't suited?" Kurt instantly fired back, clearly unwilling to accept the defeat. "Besides, what's wrong with her being older?"

"You're almost ten years older than Juniper!"

Shanley's face went completely black. If today hadn't been such a joyous occasion, he really would have smacked him.

"Fine." Shanley couldn't be bothered to waste any more breath on him and dropped a freezing sentence. "If you can win her over, that's your own skill. But if you piss her off, you'll face the consequences yourself."

"Shanley, you're letting me pursue her?" Kurt exclaimed, absolutely thrilled.

Shanley ignored him.

As if his permission actually meant Kurt could succeed. After all—Ebony's emotional intelligence was exactly on par with Juniper's. Want to win her over? It would be harder than climbing to heaven!

On his way out, Kurt noticed the two little turtles chilling in the living room.

Just as he reached out to touch them, Shanley's voice echoed behind him. "Those are your sister-in-law's life. Touch them, and see what happens."

Kurt quickly yanked his hand back and shoved it deep into his pocket.
