Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 925

Later, this set of jewelry changed hands several times.

Rumor had it that anyone who possessed it lived a remarkably happy life.

Because of this, people dubbed the set a symbol of "happiness," and many sought to acquire it.

"It's pretty. It'd make a great gift for Celine," Juniper said with interest, staring at the picture.

"Isn't Celine pregnant with a boy?" Shanley frowned.

Gifting a crown to a baby boy?

"Who said I was giving it to the kid?" Juniper huffed lightly, her tone serious. "Having the baby makes Celine the biggest hero here. As for the little brat..."

Juniper pointed casually. "I think this suits him perfectly."

"?"

Shanley looked down, catching sight of the horsewhip in the auction catalog, and couldn't stop the corners of his mouth from rising.

A horsewhip?

No child would ever want something like that.

A newborn baby receiving that as a gift—it would be an absolute nightmare!

Since it was still early, after a quick freshening up at the hotel, Shanley took Juniper to a downtown bar.

He had heard the owner of this place made exceptional desserts.

The lighting was dim.

The two sat in a corner, Juniper happily eating her cake with a spoon.

It suited her tastes perfectly, and she had already devoured three slices.

Just as she was about to start on her fourth, the plate was suddenly pulled away, and the man's voice rang out. "You've eaten too much. Control yourself."

Juniper clutched her fork, her clear, starry eyes staring straight at him as she sulked.

"I'll bring you back tomorrow."

Shanley leaned over and kissed the tip of her nose, coaxing her with a soft voice. "Eating too many sweets is bad for your stomach. Let's switch to some real food, okay?"

"Annoying."

Juniper muttered. Though reluctant, she obediently put down her spoon.

Just then, a commotion broke out nearby.

A woman in a long dress, her long hair cascading down her shoulders, stepped through the crowd.
