Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 154

His Juniper, with her unwavering integrity—cheat? As for the perfect scores…

A small smile played on Shanley’s lips, his expression turning deep and complex. It seemed the girl was about to give him another little surprise.

“This meeting is adjourned.”

Hanging up the phone, Shanley stood up abruptly, tossing out the single sentence before striding out of the room. On his way, he dialed Salma’s number to inform her of the situation.

“What?” Salma was clearly caught off guard. Hearing that Juniper had achieved perfect scores in two subjects, she nearly dropped her phone. After calming herself, she replied gravely, “Mr. Schwartz, I’m on my way back to the school right now.”

Salma had always felt there was more to Juniper than met the eye, that she wasn't as poor a student as she appeared. She just never expected this. In the entire history of Aurora High School, no student had ever achieved perfect scores in both Literature and Math simultaneously.

Watching their workaholic boss leave so suddenly, the executives exchanged confused glances. It had to be that girl again, the one who had called last time. Only she could make Mr. Schwartz lose his composure like this. Had anyone figured out who this girl was, this kryptonite to their formidable boss?

...

Back at Aurora High School, in the Dean’s office, the room was now occupied only by Juniper and the senior year teachers after Queenie and Qadir had left.

“Juniper…” The Dean took a moment to compose himself, his tone softening into one of earnest guidance. “Just tell me where you got the answers. If you’re honest, I’ll be lenient.”
