Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 86

“Alright,” Juniper said, hanging up.

Just then, her WhatsApp buzzed. She opened it to find a message from the old woman she’d helped before.

The old Woman: [My dear, it’s been a while! Best Wishes.]

Juniper smiled slightly. [It has. How is your husband doing?]

The old Woman: [He’s doing wonderfully, thanks to you! But the medicine you gave him is almost gone, and I was hoping to buy some more.]

Juniper was a kind girl; she’d left the medicine last time without taking any payment, and the old woman still felt guilty about it.

Juniper: [It will take some time to prepare more, about ten days.]

The old Woman: [That’s perfectly fine! Ten days from now happens to be my birthday banquet. I was wondering if you would grace us with your presence and join us for a drink?]

A birthday banquet? So many people were celebrating birthdays lately.

Juniper was about to decline when another message came through: [You saved my husband’s life and gave him that expensive medicine without asking for a cent. If you won’t take our money, you must at least let us treat you to a meal to show our gratitude. Otherwise, I won’t be able to sleep at night. I might just kick the bucket from all the worrying!]

Juniper couldn't help but chuckle. Who jinxes themselves like that?

After a moment’s thought, she replied: [Alright, I’ll bring the medicine over then.]

It was just a meal, after all. It wouldn't take too long.

The old Woman: [Wonderful! I’ll be waiting for you, miracle doctor!]

Juniper: [I’ll be there.]

After ending the chat, Juniper opened the page for her studio to check on their progress. A staff member quickly sent her a picture.
