Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 255

Melvin took out his phone and contacted Binary Oracle again. With the racing and citizenship issues resolved, he could now focus completely on finding his two brothers and four sisters. The last hacker group he'd hired had bailed on him without warning. No wonder they'd lost to Binary Oracle in the hacking competition. So, he decided to try his luck with Binary Oracle once more.

Just as Melvin contacted them, Binary Oracle reached out to Juniper.

Her WhatsApp notification chimed while she was playing a game. She switched apps and saw the message.

Binary Oracle: [Boss, Melvin's back. But this time... he's only looking for his sisters.]

Juniper thought for a moment and replied: [What's the situation with his sisters?]

Binary Oracle: [Melvin says he can only disclose the details once we confirm we're taking the job.]

So secretive? Juniper pursed her lips, slightly annoyed.

Shanley, sitting beside her, noticed her smiling as she texted and couldn't help but ask, "What are you chatting about?"

"Hm?" Juniper glanced at him. Not wanting to reveal anything about her potential family ties yet, she gave a vague reply. "Just talking about Melvin. He's... an interesting guy."

His name on her lips sent a chill through Shanley. His warm expression instantly frosted over, and the temperature inside the car seemed to drop several degrees.

"Interesting?" he repeated with a cold laugh, his eyes like chips of ice. "Juniper, he doesn't seem like a good person. You should keep your distance from him in the future."

"Really?" Juniper was still messaging her team and didn't catch the coldness in his tone.

"He seems alright to me," she replied absently. If he really was her brother... at least his character was sound, and he was decent-looking. He wouldn't embarrass her.

Hearing her defend Melvin not once, but twice, Shanley's hands tightened into fists, a fire of frustration building in his chest. They had only met a few times, and she was already developing a liking for him? He knew she never got this close to any other man.
