Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 931

"Hmm?"

Meeting Juniper's gaze, Coralie didn't get angry but smiled instead, her red lips curving. "The little girl is quite cute, just... a bit fierce."

She looked ready to bite.

"Don't be angry," Shanley gently held Juniper's hand to comfort her. "I promise, no one will take what you want."

This was a double entendre.

People or things, if she liked them, they were hers.

After two rounds of bidding.

Shanley suddenly stood up and made a gesture to the auctioneer.

The crowd erupted upon seeing his gesture.

The lantern pledge!

In the auction world, this meant he would win the item regardless of the cost. He would follow through to the end.

It was a display of wealth and determination, and few dared to be so arrogant.

But this was Shanley Schwartz, a man at the top of the pyramid in wealth and power.

He could buy out the entire auction, let alone one item.

"The lantern pledge?"

Not expecting Shanley to pull this move, Coralie's gaze turned cold.

It meant no matter how much she bid, Shanley would outbid her.

She wasn't qualified to compete with him financially.

For a horsewhip?

Was it really necessary!

"Ms. Quill—"

Just as Channing Irving was about to comfort her, Coralie suddenly stood up and walked over to Shanley.

Juniper looked up at the woman. Under the heavy makeup, her features weren't very clear.

True, the little girl was blinded by jealousy, how could she care about anything else?!

However, her face looked so annoying.

Maybe because it somewhat resembled Ebony Fox.

"Hello, Mr. Schwartz."
