After thinking for a moment, Corinne assumed Sunny should be busy taking care of his father and not likely to tag along, so she said, "Let''s invite Xante. We''ll all help Annie pick out a wedding dress together." Aaron smiled. "Alright, I''ll call her right now!"


    Annie was still hugging Corinne''s arm like a child. "Corinne, honestly speaking, I... I''m a bit nervous."


    Corinne raised an eyebrow and teased her, "What''s there to be nervous about? It''s not like it''s your first time getting married."


    Annie frowned and looked up at her. "Corinne! How can you bring up what happenedst time? You should know very well how traumatized I was."


    Corinne chuckled and gently pinched her cheek. "That''s right, so don''t be nervous. This time can''t be worse than thest! Aaron might just be an average guy, but he''s still way better than thest one! Don''t worry. With me around, he won''t dare mess things up."


    Annie felt better after hearing that.


    However, the same could not be said for Aaron. He said angrily, "Hey! Boss, is it really appropriate to speak ill of me to my wife? And right in front of me, no less!"


    Corinne crossed her arms defiantly and asked, "What? You got a problem with me?"


    Aaron shed an apologetic smile. "Of course not. Please continue."


    Corinne ignored him and rolled down the window for some breeze. The air conditioning inside the car was a bit too strong, and it made her ufortable.


    Soon, they arrived at the entrance of a Japanese restaurant. The moment the three of them got out of the car, Xante also arrived. Unfortunately, Sunny-the person Corinne least wanted to see-was there with her as well.


    ''Ugh, seriously? Shouldn''t he be at the hospital with his dad? He sure has a lot of free time,'' thought Corinne.


    Corinne rubbed her temples when she saw Sunny. She had no intention of dealing with him. She quickly grabbed Annie and headed straight inside the Japanese restaurant.


    However, Sunny seemed oblivious that he was unwee there. He happily trotted after them. "Corinne! Why are you walking so fast?"


    "I''m hungry, duh," replied Corinne impatiently.


    Sunny crossed his arms and strolled with her at a casual pace. "Why? Did you skip your breakfast?"


    Corinne could not be bothered to respond.


    "Corinne, why didn''t you answer any of my calls? I called you several times this morning. If Xante hadn''te for lunch, I probably wouldn''t have been able to reach you!" said Sunny. Corinne deliberately ignored his calls because she sensed trouble.


    Annie, annoyed by Sunny''s chatter, spoke up for Corinne. "Sunny, can you quiet down a bit? Can''t you see Corinne doesn''t want to talk to you?"


    Sunny frowned. "She''s my sister. Why wouldn''t she want to talk to me? And you. Why are you clinging to my sister''s arm? You''re not even rted by blood!"Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    Annie rolled her eyes at him. "So what? Although we''re not blood-rted, she''s still my Corinne, and my rtionship with her is a thousand times closer than your rtionship with her! Bleh!" Sunny was displeased, so he started to retort. "You..."


    Before he could unleash his anger, Xante pulled him aside and scolded, "Have you forgotten that you''ve promised me you''ll be quiet if I let youe with me?"


    After being reprimanded, he did be somewhat more subdued. However, it was unlikely for him to give up easily with his personality. Immediately after, he pretended to be aggrieved and muttered to Xante "Xante, Annie is bullying me. Can''t you scold her for me?"


    Xante patted his shoulder. "She''s a girl. Can''t you cut her some ck?"


    Sunny scratched his head, visibly annoyed. "I see it now. Nobody here wees me, huh?"


    Annie turned back and stuck out her tongue at him again. "Took you long enough to figure that out!"


    Sunny lifted his chin. "Hmph! Even if no one wees me, I''m stilling! I''ll show you!"
