Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 403

“Juniper—”

Shanley stood frozen, his expression wounded as he watched Juniper shield another man across from him.

“Grandmaster—”

Harold, looking completely innocent, quickly buttoned up his shirt.

What had he done to deserve this? He was just trying to conduct an experiment, and suddenly one person was pouring water all over him and tearing at his clothes, while another burst in and punched him without a word. Now his face and his back were both aching.

“Hold on,” Juniper said, rubbing her temples. She didn't have time to explain to Shanley. Turning to Harold, she said bluntly, “Take your shirt off again. I need to see.”

Harold blinked. “Huh?”

Shanley stared.

“No, that’s not what I mean,” Juniper said, taking a deep breath to compose herself. “I want to see the scar near your heart. What it looks like.”

A scar? Harold paused. All this fuss was just to see a scar? He did have one. But how could she possibly know about it?

“A scar?” Shanley’s tense posture suddenly relaxed as he connected the dots. So Juniper suspected Harold was her second brother. But his investigation had shown that Harold wasn’t an orphan. Had there been a mistake somewhere?

“Show her,” Shanley said, stepping forward. His tone softened considerably. “We’re looking for someone who has a scar on his chest.”

Harold’s eyes darted between the two of them, his heart pounding. They were also looking for someone? Someone with a scar on their chest?

After a few seconds of silence, Harold slowly unbuttoned his shirt, revealing the left side of his chest. The scar was distinct, clearly from an injury that had happened many years ago.
