Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 391

Trent stood impeccably dressed in his suit, his eyes narrowed with interest as he stared at the girl before him. With her hands in her pockets and a lollipop in her mouth, her features were stunningly beautiful, and she possessed an almost otherworldly grace.

It was her. If he remembered correctly, her name was Juniper Payne. She was the notorious adopted daughter of the Sherwin family, one of Eclara City's elite, who was later sent to live with the Payne family. She was also the long-lost sister of the acclaimed actor Jimmie Tate.

He had been abroad for the past two years and had only returned yesterday, so he'd only done a quick catch-up. This Ms. Payne was no ordinary person; she had been responsible for quite a few earth-shattering events recently. The only thing was, she was too cold. She carried herself as if wrapped in a thick layer of ice, studded with sharp thorns that kept everyone at a distance.

"Hello, Trent." Seeing Trent fixated on Juniper, Yolanda stepped forward, her jealousy masked by a radiant smile. "I'm a friend of Yelena's. My name is—"

The Wilcox family's status was far above the Lonsdale family's. If she could get in with the Wilcoxes, she could easily kick Jerrold Lonsdale to the curb. But before Yolanda could finish her affected introduction, Trent turned his head away.

"It's been a while. Forgotten how to greet people?" he asked, his question directed at Janet.

"Mr. Wilcox," Janet said, lifting her head slightly. Her face was a little pale, her tone distant. "Mm," Trent grunted, an eyebrow twitching. His gaze then shifted to the indifferent Juniper, and he took the initiative to greet her. "Hello, I'm Janet's cousin."

What? Hearing Trent's introduction, Yelena's eyes widened. Cousin? How could that mistress's daughter, Janet, possibly be worthy of being called his family?

Yelena wanted to object, but she didn't dare act out in front of Trent. He was the future heir of the Wilcox family, after all. Her mother had warned her since childhood that Trent didn't particularly like them. She was supposed to do everything she could to win his favor, which would help her secure a portion of the Wilcox family fortune.

Juniper lazily lifted her eyelids, glancing at the hand extended toward her. She kept her hands in her pockets, showing no intention of acknowledging him.

"Let's go," she said, striding right past Trent without a second glance.
