"I was so worried about you that I snuck out of the house to find you when my brother wasn't looking. I forgot to bring my wallet, and my phone is running out of battery… Xante, can you please come pick me up?" explained Sunny pitifully."No. Find a way to get home yourself!" she said impatiently."I'm scared to go home. Lucas doesn't seem like he's in a good mood today, and I'll definitely receive a beating if I go home now. Plus, I don't have any money to take the cab…"Xante would like to kick his behind if she could. "Where are you now? I'll send someone over to drive you to a hotel where you can stay for the night. Then you can figure out a way to get home in the morning.""No! I don't want someone else to come get me! I only want you! I'd rather freeze to death than let someone else pick me up," said Sunny stubbornly.Xante frowned. "Fine. You can freeze to death for all I care!"After that, she hung up the phone. 'God. He's so annoying! What have I done to deserve this?'

"Okay. You can go home now. I'll be sure to check out your channel," said Sunny. After that, he haughtily waved the busker goodbye before getting into Xante's car.Xante glanced at the busker and got into the car too. She then drove off after making sure both she and Sunny had put on their seatbelts.Sunny, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, lifted his chin proudly. "Hmph! I guess it's true when they say women mean yes when they say no! You still came after all. You know, you should just tell me if you really care about me. I promise I won't laugh at you."Xante was speechless. 'Here he goes again.'She would not have come all the way to pick up Sunny if Aaron had not seen the busker's livestream and told her Sunny was crying in the underpass. After all, it would be more troublesome for her if the Riveras blamed her should anything happen to him.It was a good thing her place was close to the underpass Sunny was at, so it only took her less than 10 minutes to get there.

Jeremy frowned and stared at Sophia coldly. "Even if she doesn't mind, I mind! Get out of this room this instant!"Sophia frowned for a second before getting out of bed. The pajamas she was wearing were a little too small for her, so her breasts and behind were slightly revealed.The pajamas belonged to Corinne, who was of a more petite size. The pajamas would be too small for the big-boned Sophia.Jeremy narrowed his eyes. "Why are you wearing her clothes?"Sophia shrugged. "My stuff hasn't arrived yet. Jeremy, have you forgotten that we came in such a rush that I didn't even get a chance to go home to pack my stuff? I wanted to borrow clothes from Francine, but she wouldn't lend me no matter how much I begged. I don't think she likes me very much. You see, I had no choice but to borrow from Corinne."Not only was she wearing Corinne's pajamas, but she showered in their room too. The reason was the same: Francine did not let her shower in her room. Corinne's pajamas were already

Jeremy scoffed. "Do you think I'm in the mood to joke with you right now?"Sophia shrugged. "Why not? I mean, Miss Corinne could be having the best time in her life as we speak. There's no reason for you to be sad."Jeremy frowned. "That's enough chit-chat for the night. Go find another room to sleep in."Sophia shook her head. "Where? I can't sleep here or in Francine's room, and I'm not going to sleep in the guest room.""Only you would believe in the words of a tarot reader!" said Jeremy with annoyance."That's right! And I don't see anything wrong with that! You're never going to make me sleep in the guest room! You should just let me stay here for the night since it looks like you'll be too worried about Miss Corinne to ever fall asleep. I promise I'll go find a hotel tomorrow morning.""No!"Sophia rolled her eyes and scoffed. "What a stingy man! I don't think Miss Corinne cares one bit whether another woman sleeps on her bed since it's so obvious she doesn't want to be wi

The new Holden Group building was designed and constructed by Newmoon Group. However, the company representative sent an apologetic email saying Moon the architect would not be able to attend the ribbon-cutting as she was occupied. However, to show the company's sincerity, the president of Newmoon Group would attend on Moon's behalf.Holden Group's directors were furious when they found out about this. They would not accept Newmoon Group's president to attend on the architect's behalf. They even went so far as to think that Newmoon Group was cursing them to fail.Jeremy did not believe in all that mumbo-jumbo, but as the president of Holden Group, he had to respect the board of directors' wishes. Thus, he called Xante to let her know that his company would not pay the remaining balance of the payment unless Moon went to the ribbon-cutting ceremony.150 million dollars was not a small sum. That amount of money could spell the life or death of Newmoon Group. Thus, Xante was understand
