Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 924

On the way to the airport.

Juniper munched on some chips, looking over at the man in the driver's seat. She spoke casually, "Kurt went to Fox's Den Boxing Gym."

"Him?"

Even Shanley found it absurd. He turned his head and asked, "With his scrawny arms, chicken legs, and disabled body, what could he possibly do there?"

"He said he was there for physical therapy."

Juniper answered honestly. Thinking about it, she added, "But he seemed more like a live-in chef."

He was frighteningly eager to cook and clean.

"Maybe..."

Shanley frowned, feeling a twinge of guilt as he was forced to cover for him. "He really looks up to Ebony Fox and wants to learn some martial arts."

"Oh."

Juniper tilted her head, thinking seriously, then muttered, "I think he did mention something like that. That's pretty ambitious of him."

"Yeah."

Shanley replied in a low voice, the corners of his lips turning up as he played along. "For his sake, he'd better actually succeed in learning something."

Otherwise—

If the secret got out that he took the risk to cover for the brat, his girl would absolutely tear him apart.

Eight hours later, the plane landed safely at Caelus International Airport.

Caelus was one of the most developed continents, second only to Australis and Borealia.

Whether in terms of economy, culture, or commercial civilization, it stood at the global forefront.

This year's J.R. Radiant Auction was being held here.

Felton and Flint had arrived in Caelus a day early and were currently standing in front of a Rolls-Royce.

"Ms. Payne. Boss."

"Mhm."

Shanley shielded the car roof with his hand, carefully escorting Juniper into the back seat.

He then pulled a piece of candy from his suit pocket, unwrapped it, and fed it to her.

"What kind of stuff is at this auction?"

Juniper asked with interest, lazily leaning back against the seat with the candy in her mouth.

Felton immediately presented a thick catalog with both hands.

Juniper didn't take it, merely signaling the man beside her with her eyes.

"Alright."
