Xante drove Sunny to a very famous fine-dining restaurant. She thought she should at least bring him to eat something good
since he went through a lot of trouble to sneak out of his house.
In the end, they bumped into somebody they knew in the restaurant.
Jeremy was dining at the restaurant with a very ***ily dressed woman. They were eating and chatting as though no one else was
in the world.
Xante narrowed her eyes with disgust.
‘Well, they certainly look cozy, yet he still wouldn’t give up his search for the boss. I don’t get it. Why does he still insist on looking
for her? Why doesn’t he just spend the rest of his life with his exotic wife? It’s all his fault that the boss has to stay in hiding!’
thought Xante.
She did not plan to greet Jeremy as they were not very close to begin with. Most of the interactions they had were always work-
related.
However, she forgot one little thing, and that was Sunny.
As soon as Sunny saw Jeremy, he waved to him and said, “Jeremy, fancy seeing you here too!”
Jeremy looked in their direction, so Xante had no choice but to give him a curt nod as a greeting.Books Chapters Are Daily

However, that was not the end of it as Sunny, who obviously could not read the room, quickly dragged her over to Jeremy’s table.
“Jeremy, my girlfriend and I’ve come here to have lunch too.”
Xante was speechless.
Jeremy glanced indifferently at Xante before turning back to Sunny, asking, “Does your brother know you’re dating Miss Xante?”
Sunny frowned in dismay. “He knows, but he thinks I’m still too young to be dating. But I’m not a kid anymore, so I’m not going to
listen to him. He can control every other aspect of my life, but not this one!”
Jeremy looked at him thoughtfully and said nothing. Instead, he went back to cutting his steak.
Sophia, however, giggled. “My, Mister Sunny. I’m sure your girlfriend feels very secure with you. After all, it’s not every guy who’d
be willing to go against their family for a girl.”
Sunny looked at Sophia. This was not the first time he met her, but they had not really exchanged any words before. All he knew
was Sophia was a good friend of Jeremy’s, and she seemed to know Zeke and Gerald too. For some reason, he could not bring
himself to like her, so he ignored her.
“Let’s go,” said Xante. She did not want to stay a second longer.
Sunny nodded and they were about to go to their table. Suddenly, Sophia said warmly, “Since we’re all friends, why don’t you join
us? We still have a lot of food that hasn’t come. Take a seat, you two.”
“No, thanks. We’ll order our own food,” said Xante.
“Miss Xante, I heard from Jeremy that you’re Miss Corinne’s friend. Well, I’d love to get to know you better. I have a lot of things I
want to talk to you about.”
Xante stopped walking at the mention of Corinne. She turned back to look at Sophia warily, “Exactly what do you want to talk
about?”
Sophia laughed heartily. “About Miss Corinne, of course.”
Xante narrowed her eyes. She could not help but wonder what Sophia was hiding under her smile.
