“He’s not!”
Juniper shot him a playful glare before saying evenly, “He knows you’re executing your master plan, and he was worried you might actually be short on cash.”
Shanley had always been terribly possessive and couldn’t stand Luella being too affectionate with Juniper.
But ever since he found out that she and Jimmie were actually in love.
He had practically become a different person. He was genuinely generous toward Luella now.
Makes sense.
Deep down, he really was a gentle and kindhearted man.
He knew Luella wouldn’t ask for money unless she was truly out of options.
“Mr. Schwartz is so kind, it suddenly reminds me of the years before I became a toxic witch…” Luella dramatically sniffled, murmuring to herself, “I’m never going to curse Mr. Schwartz behind his back again.”
Shanley’s face darkened again.
Luella really shouldn’t be allowed to speak.
“If you need money, just ask. And don’t get hurt,” Juniper commanded seriously.
“Got it.”
Luella bit her lip, feeling a tiny twinge of guilt.
Juniper truly treated her like a sister. And what was she doing? Plotting to marry her best friend.
Sinful!
After hanging up.
Juniper finished her breakfast. By the time she was ready to go, Shanley was already waiting by the door, holding her bag.
“Are you sure you don’t want me to drop you off at Eclara University?” Shanley asked.
“No need.”
Juniper took her bag and walked with him to the parking garage.
He got into his multi-million-dollar sports car.
She got onto her beat-up little e-scooter.
The Schwartz Group had a lot going on lately. Shanley was swamped, and she didn’t want to waste his time.
“Alright.”
Shanley leaned down, gently touching the girl’s face. “Text me when your classes are over. I’ll come pick you up.”
“Mhm.”
Juniper nodded, giving him a quick kiss before putting on her helmet.
With his spiritual fuel replenished.
Shanley headed to work in a fantastic mood.
The entire Schwartz Group benefited from his bright aura; the office atmosphere was like a gentle spring breeze.
Eclara University.
Juniper parked the e-scooter and hummed a little tune as she walked toward her classroom.
As she walked, she suddenly felt someone following her.
She gradually slowed her pace.
Reaching a corner, she deliberately stopped and then abruptly spun around.
“Ah-“
Yolanda Sherwin shrieked in terror, her face pale as she demanded, “Juniper, what are you doing?”
“Following me?”
Juniper sized her up coldly, her tone displeased. “You’ve got some nerve, Yolanda.”
“Who’s following you?”
Yolanda seowled, retorting defensively. “This path leads to the
Department of Meeads
dres.
There’s no rule saying only you can walk here.”
It was the truth.
Yolanda hadn’t been following her; it was purely a coincidence.
Seeing Yolanda looking on the verge of tears from the fright, Juniper calmly looked away. “I thought you’d
forgotten the lessons I taught you
It’s best if you’re not following the
Leaving those words behind.
Juniper turned and walked away.
Yolanda stood frozen, pitifully wiping her tears.
When she glared at Juniper’s retreating back, her eyes were filled with pure resentment.
If it weren’t for her, Yolanda wouldn’t have been isolated by everyone in her class and the entire university.
Ever since Juniper got engaged to Shanley, everyone treated Yolanda like she was a plague.
No one came near her, no one spoke to her.
They were all terrified of offending the Schwartz Group.
And the Sherwin Group…
Someone had spread the rumor that the Sherwin family had abused. Juniper, which caused their
Corporate partners to cut vel
No one dared to work with the Sherwin Group anymore, and their revenue was plummeting.
If things continued this way, the company’s bankruptcy was only a matter of time.
She wouldn’t even be able to keep her status as the “Sherwin heiress.” Thinking of this.
Yolanda gritted her teeth in fury, desperately wanting to drag Juniper down to hell with her.
But Juniper was too powerful, and she had a backer like Shanley. What could Yolanda possibly do?
The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt.
She wanted to crouch down and just cry.
But before she could bend over, a figure appeared in front of her.
Yolanda slowly looked up, only to see someone dressed in long sleeves and pants,
wearing a hat and a black mask.
Looking closer.
She saw a severely burned, heavily scarred face.
“Ah-“
Yolanda screamed even louder, her heart pounding frantically.
A monster!
