Chapter 140
Junie clicked her tongue in amazement.
She looked at Spencer and teased. Those Night Guards are quite quite extraordinary
Spencer smiled slightly, “Dear Miss Janie, those are your followers.”
Janie showed a disdainful expression. “Oh right, my followers….
She was displeased. Why are your Night Guards so handsome, and mine are just….
Janie looked at Spencer, her cheeks puffed. “You messed thein up and then dumped them on me, didn’t you?”

Spencer sighed, looking innocent, “Come on, my lady, maybe that’s just who they are. You can’t blame me for it. Besides, they’re sucking with you because they’re totally blown away by your charm and amazing personality. I didn’t make them
follow you
Janie blinked and grinned. “Alright, alright, you’ve got a way with words, Mr. Alvarez. I got to hand it to you. I like your honesty.
Spencer smiled at her and slowly leaned in closer.
Janie’s face lit up with a smile.
“Oh no, they’re about to start fighting! Can’t let that happen. Guess I’d better go check on my crew,” she said, pinching Spencer’s cheek before skipping off.
Spencer let out a helpless chuckle, straightened up, and followed her with a smile.
Janie wasn’t just making things up.
The Night Guards really were about to start fighting.
Janie cleared her throat lightly. “Hey guys, did you miss me?”
The Night Guards, who had been gearing up for a brawl, froze mid–action and immediately turned toward the source of the
voice.
Then, excitement and joy lit up their faces.
“Hello, Miss Janie. Mr. Alvarez, they greeted, quickly lining up in order, each one beaming
Janie looked at them with a bright smile. “Hello”
By then, Spencer had already reverted to his usual aloof, boss–like demeanor.
Janie couldn’t help but chuckle, then reached out to take his hand.
Spencer’s expression softened instantly.
The Night Guards jaws dropped, their grins turning mischievous.
Janie nudged Spencer forward, spun him around, and said with a playful smile, “See? He’s totally fine now. Doesn’t Mr. Alvarez look even more handsome?”
The Night Guards instantly teared up, crying and laughing at the same time. “Yes!”

Spencer couldn’t help feeling touched.
Janie used her hand to push up the comers of his mouth into a smile which made Spencer look a bit more adorable.
Miss Janie sure knows how to handle Mr. Alvarez, the Night Guards thought, stifling the urge to burst out laughing
They dared not joke too freely with Janie present. Otherwise, they d surely pay for it. Actually, even if they did cross the line, Janie would have their backs.
In truth, they were professionally trained not to laugh, though holding it in was always a challenge.
Suddenly. Noah cheered. “Mr. Alvarez and Miss Janie are such a perfect match!”
The other Night Guards snapped out of their daze.
Totally Miss Janie and Mr. Alvarez are a perfect match, made for each other?”
“Congratulations to Miss Janie and Mr. Alvarez! You two are meant to be!”
Their cheers got louder, and it didn’t look like they were stopping anytime soon.
Even Janie started to look a little embarrassed.
Spencer still kept his usual calm expression, but one could tell he was feeling awkward too.
Janie sighed and finally said. “Alright, alright, enough already. Thanks, but take it down a notch.”
Spencer’s lips twitched into a small smile. “Yes”
Jamie’s voice wasn’t loud, but the Night Guards caught on right away.
They stopped cheering immediately and stared at her with eager, almost puppy–like smiles.
Spencer raised an eyebrow.
Janie couldn’t hold back her laughter as she thought, “Looking at them now. Who’d ever believe they’re serious Night
Guardi
Sensing Spencer’s disdain, the Night Guards quickly wiped the smiles off their faces, adopting expressions of somber
determination
Both Janie and Spencer were momentarily stunned, thinking. Oh… well you don’t have to be that serious!
Spencer stayed silent, and Janie said, “Just act normal. No need to be so stiff.”
The Night Guards caught on quickly, replacing their stern expressions with more natural smiles.
“Miss Janie, Mr. Alvarez, it’s been so long since we’ve seen you. Add to that today’s joyous occasion, and we got carried away. Sorry for that. Isaiah said solemnly.
Janie raised an eyebrow. “Oh, Isaiah, you’ve gotten quite sharp, huh?”
Isaiah suppressed his inner excitement, maintaining a composed smile.
But inside, he was practically shouting with glee. All that brainpower spent trying to please them while the others rambled. It paid off! Miss Janie just praised me! he wondered.
The other Night Guards, who had been admiring him a moment ago, immediately tensed.

“Noah, Terchove a little chat, one of them nicer vint
Noah felt the tension. “What are you up to!”.
John, who had already been in one fight today, smirked gleefully. “You’ve stirred up enough jealousy. Time to pay the price
Noah didn’t quite understand at first, but it quickly dawned on him. These guys had made no secret of their desire to bear him up
Seeing then predatory expressions, Noah’s scalp tingled. “Men’s jealousy is something else. They’re all after my position, be thought grimly
With that realization, Noah snorted. “Seriously? Planning to gang up on me? How pathetic. Like I’d be scared of your
John couldn’t help but admire his courage.
“Alright then, you asked for it.” And with that, they all rushed at him.
They all rushed at him at once.
Determined to defend his position. Noah fought with everything he had.
Janie yawned
“Do you want to rest” Spencer asked softly
Janie barely opened her eyes and mumbled, “Yes”
Spencer chuckled and scooped her up effortlessly.
Jarur instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning against him and closing her eyes
As he gazed at her quiet, delicate face. Spencer felt his breath catch, his heartbeat quickening
He carried her to her bedroom
Jane’s room, naturally the best in the house, was right next to Spencer’s
Though they hadn’t been home much lately, it was always kept clean and well–ventilated.
Inside, Spencer removed her coat and gently laid her on the bed
Janie, of course, wasn’t actually asleep laut felt perfectly entitled to let Spencer take care of her.
