Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 323

Juniper’s words struck Yelena like a bolt of lightning. Her face turned ashen, and her body trembled uncontrollably. Online? She had just passed her art academy entrance exams and was planning to study film. If her identity as the “daughter of a mistress” was exposed, her future acting career would be over before it even began.

No. She absolutely could not let that information get out.

“Don’t…” Yelena was terrified. She finally understood that this parentless wild child was not someone to be trifled with. Wisely, she softened her tone. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have bothered you while you were eating, and I shouldn’t have said those things.”

“Sorry?” Juniper’s lips curled into a cold smile. “Sorry to who, exactly?”

“To you,” Yelena ground out through clenched teeth, deliberately avoiding any mention of Janet.

“Is that all?” Juniper’s gaze hardened, her patience clearly wearing thin.

“Juniper, should I post it now?” Qadir asked, his phone already in hand, the message drafted and ready to send.

“No, wait! There’s more!” Yelena quickly interrupted, turning her face reluctantly toward Janet. “Janet… I’m sorry.”

“I can’t hear you,” Janet shot back, staring her down. Her pretty face was a mask of displeasure, showing none of the saintly forgiveness Yelena might have hoped for.

A faint, almost imperceptible smile touched Juniper’s lips as she watched the exchange. She had initially thought Janet was a pushover, someone who would just take the abuse. But now, it seemed she had some backbone after all.
