Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 56

“Well…” Yolanda’s eyes darted around for a moment before she offered a gentle, sweet smile. “For this festival, I just wanted to do my best for the audience. I wasn’t thinking about winning an award,” she said softly. “Getting this opportunity was a wonderful surprise, and I’m very grateful.”

“The dress you’re wearing is beautiful. Could you tell us a bit about it?”

“Of course.” Yolanda smiled demurely, a proud look on her face. “This dress is from The One. It took a lot of effort to acquire it.”

She paused deliberately, her eyes finding the camera lens. She then frowned slightly and said, “Speaking of the dress, I’m sure everyone is aware of what’s been happening online. Yes, it’s true that Juniper was adopted by my parents, but later…”

Her eyes reddened as she trailed off, leaving the audience to fill in the blanks. “I’m sure my sister didn’t mean any harm. She’s only eighteen, and her grades aren’t good. It was hard for her to even get into a school. I hope everyone can give her another chance. Thank you.”

Since it was a live broadcast, the chat was soon flooded with Yolanda’s die-hard fans. The screen was nearly obscured by a torrent of praise. The general consensus was that Yolanda was beautiful, kind, and a great student with a compassionate heart, while Juniper was a good-for-nothing troublemaker.

The interviewing reporter was also moved by Yolanda’s supposed kindness. “Juniper is lucky to have a sister like you.”

“My sister is wonderful, too,” Yolanda replied, her vanity soaring as she watched the screen fill with compliments. She had achieved her goal: boosting her own reputation while completely tarnishing Juniper’s.

But just as the interview was proceeding smoothly, a comment suddenly cut through the noise: [LUCKY FOR HER, OR A CURSE!]

The fans were confused.

Then another comment appeared: [The tables have turned, check Twitter! Juniper is Lunar! Juniper is Lunar!! JUNIPER IS LUNAR!!!]

Soon, the entire chat was spammed with the same message.

[Can someone get Yolanda off the screen? What is she even saying about Lunar with that fake, two-faced act?]

[YES! Finally, someone else sees it! Yolanda is playing the victim while reaping all the benefits. What a hypocrite!]

The tide in the live chat turned in an instant, with everyone calling for Yolanda to get off the screen.

Staring at the endless stream of “get out,” Yolanda sat frozen in place, a single phrase echoing in her mind: Juniper is Lunar!

How could this be…? How could that useless waste of space be the master choreographer, Lunar?
