Sunny became a bit more obedient after Xante glared at him. Instead of following her, he sullenly sat back down on the Japanese tatami, crossing his legs.
"Haha! Serve you right. Miss Xante never had any plans to marry you, yet you're thinking of taking her to see wedding dresses? No wonder she's ignoring you. It would be strange if she didn't!" taunted Annie. Sunny's face darkened, and he glared at Annie. "Don't think you're safe hiding behind my sister. Just because you're there doesn't mean I won't do something to you."
Annie was indeed fearless and confident as she knew Corinne would always take her side and support her. She placed her hands on her hips and continued to taunt Sunny. "Is that so? Go on, I dare you to do something!"
"Why, you..." Sunny was fuming. The uncertainty of Xante's feelings already weighed on him, and Annie continued to aggravate the situation.
'D*mn it! If she wasn't a girl, I'd have surely done something!' thought Sunny.
Thus, unable to do anything, he could only seethe with anger. Fed up, he decided to ignore Annie and turned to ask Corinne, who was concentrating on her meal, "Corinne, you haven't answered me yet. I called you so many times this morning. Does your work really keep you so busy that you don't even have time to pick up a call?"
Before Corinne could respond, Annie interjected, "Are you really that clueless or just plain dumb? Isn't it obvious? Corinne just doesn't want to answer your calls! I called her this morning, and she picked up jus fine!"
Sunny was so infuriated that his face crumpled. "I wasn't talking to you. Could you please stop butting in? You're about to get married, yet you're still so annoying. Be careful; Mister Aaron might realize how unbearable you are and call off the wedding!"
Annie glanced at Aaron and remarked, "He has no chance to regret it now, so you can take your concern and shove it up your you-know-where."
Unable to win the argument, Sunny ignored Annie and looked at Corinne with his sad puppy eyes. "Corinne, are you really not answering my calls on purpose?"
Corinne turned to look at Sunny. Suddenly, she found it difficult to tell him the truth after seeing how pitiful he looked.
In consideration of Sunny's feelings, she chose to sidestep the issue and asked him instead, "Why did you call me? I didn't see any missed calls."
Sunny immediately regained his confidence when he heard that. He raised his chin and glared at Annie, saying, 'See? Corinne's not deliberately ignoring my calls. You're the know-it-all you think you are.' Annie was about to retort but Sunny cut her off, "Shut up! I'm talking to Corinne now, so don't interrupt!"
Annie frowned in displeasure and was ready to kick up a fuss, but Aaron suddenly offered her a piece of sushi, saying, "Try this, darling. It tastes really good!"
Annie looked at Aaron in surprise, realizing that he was signaling her to speak less.
Despite feeling a bit annoyed, she decided to go along with it and ate, ignoring Sunny completely.
