Chapter 1126

‘Is this kid stupid or something?’ Xante wondered.

“I don’t want to hang out!” she grumbled.

“I don’t believe you! You obviously care about me. You wouldn’t have given me the blanket otherwise.”

Xante was speechless. She felt like she was talking to a wall. Thus, she ignored Sunny and went to

Aaron’s office instead.

Annie was nowhere to be seen when Xante arrived outside of Aaron’s office, which she found to be

very strange.

Before she went in, she said sternly to Sunny, “Wait outside! Don’t follow me in!”

“Why can’t I go in with you? Why are you looking for Aaron again?” he asked unhappily.

“If you haven’t noticed, this is a company, and I’m working! Aaron is my business partner and

colleague. You, a non-employee, have no right to be there for our business discussion.”

Sunny scoffed haughtily. “Fine. I won’t bother you working. I’ll wait outside.”

Xante rolled her eyes at him before knocking on the door and entering Aaron’s office.

Sunny anxiously and obediently waited for her like a dog waiting for its owner to return. From time to

time, he would put his ear against the door to hear what was going on inside.

“Sunny? Is that you?”

Hearing his name, Sunny turned and saw Annie with a cup of coffee in her hand.

“Hey, it is you, Sunny!” said Annie with surprise. “What are you doing here?”

Sunny was surprised to see Annie there too. “I should ask you the same thing. What are you doing

here?”

Annie sat back down in her seat. “I work here.”

Sunny’s eyes widened in shock. “What?! You work here? I thought you worked at your uncle’s

company!”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

“I did, but it was so boring there that I came to work here instead. Plus, this is a good chance for me to

learn how to be independent.”

An idea suddenly popped into Sunny’s mind. “Are you guys still hiring? Can I work here?”

Annie looked suspiciously at him. “You want to work here? Why? Wouldn’t it be better to work in your

family company?”

Sunny pouted. “It’s not going to be fun working there! My brother will watch me like a hawk, and he’ll

say nothing I do is ever good enough. Also, I want to learn how to be independent like you too!”

Annie half-believed him. “I don’t think the company hires students who haven’t graduated from high

school.”

Sunny frowned in embarrassment. “I’m graduating soon!”

“Well… The company doesn’t hire part-timers either.”

“Then how did you get the job?”

Annie rolled her eyes. “We’re not the same, okay? I’m a university graduate. Not to mention, I got the

job through legitimate means. I applied with my resume and went for the interview.”

Sunny scoffed. “You think you’re so great just because you’ve graduated from a university.”

“Yeah, real mature of you,” said Annie sarcastically. “Anyway, you haven’t told me why you’re here.

Also, would you care to explain why you have your ear pressed against Mister Aaron’s office door?”

Sunny cleared his throat awkwardly. “Umm… I wasn’t trying to eavesdrop or anything but…my… My

girlfriend is inside, and I’m…worried about her.”

“What?! You have a girlfriend?”

Sunny lifted his chin proudly. “Yeah. Why do you sound so surprised?”

Annie waved her hand and laughed. “I find that really hard to believe. I mean, what girl would be willing

to date a kid like you? Hahahaha!”

Sunny’s face darkened. “The only kid here is you!”
