Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 222

Unauthorized personnel? The assistant glanced at the girl and understood immediately.

“Right away,” the assistant confirmed. “I’ll make sure nothing interferes with your training tomorrow.”

...

On the other side of the track, the moment the car stopped, Juniper scrambled out, fanning her face to cool down. She was afraid that if she stayed in there a second longer, she might just snap Kurt’s neck. This test drive had revealed just how many bad habits Kurt had. Scolding him the entire way had left her tired and thirsty.

“Juniper, I get all the points you made. How about I do another lap?” Kurt asked meekly, offering her a cup of water with both hands.

To his credit, even though he’d just been verbally pummeled by Juniper, he knew she was right about everything. There were even several moments when she’d had to grab the wheel to correct his steering. With one hand, no less. Effortlessly cool, flawless execution.

If it weren’t for the fact that Juniper didn’t have the points to qualify for F1, he’d want her to race in his place. Her skills were on par with any seasoned professional.

“You think about it tonight. Tomorrow, you’ll do one more run. If you make the same basic mistakes again…” Juniper took a sip of water, shoved the cup back into Kurt’s hands, and added with a sharp edge to her voice, “I’ll knock your block off.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll fix it! I promise!” Kurt yelped, instinctively covering his head as he forced a smile.

“You’d better,” Juniper said dismissively. She glanced at the time, pulled on her cap, and started walking away.

As she passed the lounge, she ran into Ghoul, who was still glued to his phone, frantically messaging ‘J.’ But every message he sent was met with a delivery failure notification.

Right. She’d blocked him.

Seeing him hunched over, looking pathetic as he typed out his long, rambling messages, Juniper pursed her lips. She had been wrong to assume he was lying about wanting her in the race. In a fit of anger, she’d blocked him.

Fine. She had misjudged him. Time to take him off the blocklist.

“Yes!”
