Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 639

“You’re my hero! I’ll feel terrible if I don’t do something to repay you.”

“She’s right,” Hayden added, seeing his wife’s earnest plea. “Please, Ms. Payne, let us have your contact info. Think of it as making new friends. If you ever need help with anything, you can always call us.”

Juniper looked at the couple. They didn’t seem like bad people, so she eventually gave them her number.

After adding each other as contacts, they started walking toward their respective private rooms. Miranda and Hayden’s room was the first one they reached.

“Ms. Payne, wait just a moment,” Miranda said, pushing open the door. She disappeared inside and returned seconds later with her arms full of snacks. “These are delicious. You have to try them.”

Before Juniper could react, she had pushed the entire pile into her arms.

“You don’t…” Juniper started to refuse, but her eyes fell on the colorful array of treats, and the words died on her lips. “...have to give me so many. I can just take a couple.”

“Take them all,” Miranda said with a grin. “If you like them, I’ll buy you more next time.”

Hayden’s eyes widened in disbelief. His wife was giving away all her favorite snacks? He wasn’t even allowed to touch those snacks, let alone eat them. And now she was giving them all to a girl she’d just met?

“...Alright,” Juniper finally said, her hands instinctively tightening around the pile of goodies.

A few minutes later, Juniper walked back into her room carrying a mountain of snacks.

Luella froze mid-sip, her lips twitching. “Where did you get all this?”

“Saved someone on my way back from the restroom. This is their thank-you gift.”

“These don’t look cheap,” Luella noted, rummaging through the pile and pulling out her favorite chocolate. “A quick guess, this is probably a few hundred bucks’ worth of snacks.”

“That expensive?” Juniper’s eyelashes fluttered, and she suddenly became much more careful about where she set the food down.
