Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1532

After they finished eating.

Juniper had classes in the afternoon and planned to head back to the dorm for a quick nap.

With the debate competition over, Janet could leave early. She was originally supposed to live on campus, but worried about her mother's health, she specifically applied to commute. Whenever she had free time, she stayed home to keep Saskia company.

"Where are the books?" Melvin stood up and instinctively picked up Janet's laptop bag.

"Huh?" Janet's outstretched hand grasped empty air, and she hurriedly replied, "All the books are at home."

"Alright." Melvin lifted his chin, his tone gentle. "I'll drive you back, and I can grab the books while I'm at it."

"O-okay."

It made perfect sense, so Janet couldn't refuse. Like a startled little bird, she followed Melvin to the garage and instinctively reached for the back door handle.

"Treating me like your chauffeur?" Melvin held her laptop bag, staring at her with a half-smile.

"No."

Janet didn't understand the unspoken rules of these things, but she was smart enough to immediately move to the passenger seat.

She sat up straight, her back rigid, staring straight ahead.

Her gaze was so determined she looked like she was about to swear an oath of allegiance.

"Relax, I'm not going to eat you." Melvin slid into the driver's seat and tossed her laptop bag into the back.

Then, he leaned over, getting closer to Janet.

Startled, Janet took a deep breath and shrank back against her seat, her eyelashes fluttering wildly like butterfly wings.

Melvin buckled her seatbelt for her, staring at her with a deep smile. "There are snacks in the glove compartment. Grab whatever you'd like."

Janet looked over and sure enough, the compartment was stuffed full of snacks.

Was this prepared specifically for Juniper, that little glutton?

Mr. Steele really was a great guy.

"I just ate, so I'm not hungry. Thank you, Mr. Steele." Janet offered a polite smile.

"Suit yourself," Melvin replied.
