Xante frowned and looked down at Aaron’s phone, which he had put in silent mode. There was an incoming call, and she did not
need the caller ID to tell her it was from Sunny. Her sleepiness gave way to frustration as she thought, ‘Oh my god, he’s so
annoying!’
“You can just turn off your phone, you know,” she said impatiently.
Aaron gave a helpless shrug. “Your little lover says he’ll call the cops on me for kidnapping you if I turn off my phone. I don’t want
to go down to the police station if I can help it.”
Xante was speechless. ‘That crazy son of a b*tch.’
She took Aaron’s phone back to her room. When Sunny called her again, she leaned back against her headboard with a frown to
take the call.
“Aaron! My sources tell me you live together with Xante! Don’t think I won’t really call the cops if you don’t let her answer my
calls!”
“Call the cops, then. I dare you,” said Xante coldly.
There was a brief silence before Sunny said in a high-pitched voice, “Xante! Thank god you finally answered the phone! I was
worried sick about you.”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates...
“What’s there to worry about me?” asked Xante in an annoyed tone.
Sunny did not know how to answer her, so he scoffed haughtily and said, “I don’t know, but just know that I worry about you
whenever I can’t contact you.”
Xante could not stand him anymore. “Sunny Rivera, I was fine before you came along, and I’m going to be fine whether you’re in
my life or not! Stop harassing my friend ’cause there’s really nothing to worry about. Understood?!”
Sunny inhaled sharply, and his voice sounded a little bit off when he childishly replied, “Fine, whatever. I didn’t mean to bother
your friend, but how can I not panic when it was always Corinne who picked up your phone when I called you for the past two
days? It’s not like I can go find you since Lucas has grounded me.”
Xante sat up straighter. “What did you say? Corinne picked up when you called my phone?”
Sunny nodded. “Yeah. I was sort of wondering why she had your phone.”
“What did you two talk about?” asked Xante darkly.
“No... Nothing,” answered Sunny guiltily.
“So you did talk about something. Tell me what it is now!”
“Well... Umm... I didn’t know it was her who picked up the call, so I said you need to take responsibility for me after sleeping with
me...”
Xante facepalmed herself. “And what did she say after that?”
“She asked me when it happened,” replied Sunny in a trembling voice.
“How did you answer?” Xante was starting to get a headache.
“I didn’t answer her since I remember you told me not to let her know anything about us! So I quickly hung up the phone,”
answered Sunny honestly.
Xante massaged her temples. ‘What’s the point of him hanging up the phone when he already told Corinne what he shouldn’t
have told her? She must be mad at me for sleeping with her kid brother. But it wasn’t like I meant for that to happen. It’s all
Sunny’s fault for giving in so easily and not stopping when I told him to!’
“It’s getting late. You should go to bed now. Don’t call me unless there’s an emergency. I have no time to play with you,” said
Xante.
She was about to hang up the phone when Sunny said in a trembling voice, “I’m actually outside...and it’s so cold... I can’t sleep
when it’s so cold...”
Xante’s thumb froze. “Why are you still outside when it’s so late?” she asked with a frown.
