Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1767

The nearby staff exchanged nervous glances, none of them daring to make a sound.

The internet was exploding with the scandal, so they were already fully aware of what had happened.

But Amos had just woken from a nap and had a weak heart, so no one had dared break the news to him yet.

“It was...”

Annie sat up, biting her lip and looking completely victimized.

Right at that moment—

Mr. and Mrs. Ainsworth came rushing down the stairs.

“Annie.”

Mrs. Ainsworth immediately pulled Annie into a frantic embrace, checking her up and down. “I saw everything online! Did anyone hurt you on your way out?”

“No.”

Annie shook her head, sobbing uncontrollably. “Mom, that wretched woman completely humiliated me. How am I ever supposed to show my face in this city again?”

“And she said she was calling the cops! She said she was going to have me arrested for attempted murder!”

“Let her try!”

Mr. Ainsworth barked, pushing up his glasses with a cold sneer. “She's just a brat. Does she really think our family is afraid of her?”

“Dad, she's a nobody,” Annie sniffled, wiping away her tears and looking pitiful. “But her friend is Juniper Payne, which means she has the Schwartz family backing her.”

“If she really pushes this, won't the Schwartzes pressure the police into locking me up?”

When forced to choose between the two, the authorities would absolutely side with the Schwartzes.

“Kent and I are old friends. That girl is nothing but a distant relative.”

Amos, having just skimmed the video footage, scoffed coldly. “Didn't you say she seduced Kurt, and that Monique absolutely despises her?”

“Yeah,” Annie nodded eagerly. “Kurt's mother hates her guts. But she's totally shameless. She just keeps throwing herself at Kurt.”
