Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 112

"Phew…"

Rachel sat down, clutching her pounding heart and gasping for air.

It was a good thing she exercised regularly and had a high tolerance for stress. Otherwise, she might have had a heart attack right then and there.

"What in the world is going on?" Rachel finally composed herself, looking back and forth between Jimmie and Lunar, her brain struggling to keep up. "How is Master Lunar your sister?"

"It's true," Jimmie said, grabbing a handful of pistachios. He shelled them one by one and gently placed the nuts near Juniper's hand. "Juniper is my sister."

As he spoke, he deliberately spread out the DNA report, raising an eyebrow with a hint of pride. "My biological sister."

Rachel snatched the report and read it over and over. It was true. They were related.

"See! I knew it!" Rachel, who had just calmed down, shot up from her seat again, exclaiming, "I said from the beginning that Master Lunar and you looked alike. I can't believe you're actually related!"

Admit it, her eye for these things was impeccable!

"Keep your voice down," Jimmie chided with a slight frown, his tone displeased. "You're disturbing Juniper's snack time."

Rachel's smile froze, and her mouth twitched.

He just found his sister, and suddenly, he’d become a complete stranger to Rachel!

"Hmph," Rachel huffed, then scurried over to Juniper's side and took her hand. "Master Lunar, congratulations. I'm so happy for you. Congratulations to you, and congratulations to me."

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.

She no longer had to worry about Mr. Tate having a meltdown and canceling the project at any moment. She didn't have to worry about Master Lunar getting angry and walking off the set. She didn't have to worry about the two of them getting into a fight during production.

The world was a beautiful place again.

"So, are you two going public with this?" Rachel asked, finally getting to the heart of the matter.

The whole world knew Mr. Tate was searching for his sister. They would surely be thrilled for him.

"Juniper." Jimmie shot up from his seat, his eyes filled with urgency. "Can I get your number?"

They still had so much to talk about.

"Sure," Juniper paused for a second before pulling out her phone.

Jimmie was so excited that his hands trembled, and he fumbled with the screen several times before he could unlock it. In the end, Rachel had to help him.

Once they were connected, Juniper created a contact for Jimmie: Brother.

Seeing the contact name, Jimmie finally broke into a wide grin. But then he remembered something else, and his voice turned grim. "Juniper, before you leave, there are some people and things that need to be dealt with."

Rachel knew exactly what he meant.

Slandering Mr. Tate's sister? They had no idea who they'd messed with.
