Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1748

Ebony Fox frowned, her cheeks burning intensely.

"Kurt——"

"Okay, okay, okay." Knowing he had pushed his luck far enough, Kurt decided to quit while he was ahead. "Hearing you say you miss me makes me so happy."

Ebony Fox pursed her lips, a bit unsure how to handle such a reaction.

Just one 'I miss you' and he was this thrilled.

"My little fox, I have to get back to work. I'll video call you when I'm done."

"Alright."

Ebony Fox didn't say anything more and ended the call.

Then.

Using the number Juniper provided, she contacted the people at Cybernetic Shadows.

"Hello, I need to check someone's recent itinerary and chat logs."

"The name is Annie Ainsworth."

——

The next day.

Ebony Fox checked the surveillance footage at the gym's entrance and saw people in disguise.

They were throwing eggs and vegetable leaves at the main door.

Some even splashed red paint and hung banners.

They read: Justice for the working class.

The working class?

Whoever was orchestrating all this really knew how to manipulate public opinion.

Sure enough.

More and more people were demanding that Ebony Fox show her face and explain the situation.

Ebony Fox turned off the video and texted Polly: [Which hospital is Wayne staying at?]

Polly instantly sent the address: [Ebony Fox, are you going to the hospital to find him? The entrance is packed with reporters.]

Ebony Fox: [Coincidentally, one of the doctors at this hospital is a student I personally trained.]

They had a good relationship; she had helped the doctor fight off an abusive husband.

She probably wouldn't refuse this small favor.

——

Noon.

Ebony Fox changed clothes, put on a hat, and arrived at the hospital.

Upon hearing the situation, the doctor immediately expressed her willingness to help.

"Coach Ebony Fox, I refuse to believe you would do something like this."

The female doctor furrowed her brows, clearly indignant. "Someone must be pulling strings behind the scenes."
