"Suny, Austin." Elijah came over with red wine.
A waiter passed by with drinks on the tray. He took a glass of juice for Suny and a glass of red wine for Austin. He looked into Austin's eyes and saw a horrible world. He said in a broken voice, "Well, I'm a little thirsty."
Suny raised her eyebrows and cocked her head to Austin’s side. She asked, "Anything for me?"
Austin went to the waiter and brought her a glass of juice, "Grape juice?"
Suny smiled, "Thank you."
"Miss Holland."
At this time, Winnie came over, holding red wine. She said, "Did Miss Holland come here with Mr. Johnson?"
Suny knew there wasn’t too much time for Winnie to be smug, so let her be. "Does the code say he can’t bring a date?"
"No. I just asked."
Winnie said as her eyes fell on Austin, "I've never seen Mr. Johnson bring a date before."
She only saw Suny as Austin’s random date.
Suny landed her eyes on the brooch on Winnie’s dress, and asked tentatively, "Does Miss Bates like children?"
Winnie's face fell, "I don't know what you're talking about."
Suny mocked Winnie and said, "Miss Bates, don't get me wrong. Your brooch is very cute, so I just asked."
That was called, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
Winnie was humiliated, ready to retreat, "Have fun, Miss Holland."
Winnie wiggled away, with a glass of red wine in her hands.
Suny watched as Winnie left, and took a sip of grape juice, smiling.
Elijah clicked his tongue, "Winnie still doesn’t give up on you, Austin."
After Elijah finished speaking, he glanced at Suny for any reaction.
Suny glanced at Elijah and smiled lightly, "Mr. Brooks seems to know a lot."
She paused and then continued, "But I wouldn’t advise that if you want to end well."
He was just kidding! Don't have to be so serious, okay?
Austin’s eyes flickered to Elijah, implying, “Get out! Don't get in the way.”
Elijah snorted, "Okay, I won't bother you guys anymore."
What enviable love birds they were!
Elijah regained confidence when he went back to Antonio and Tate, "Austin is busy, well, dating."
Antonio cut him a what-a-foolish glance. Tate smiled, "What do you think we are doing?"
Who would bother them except for Elijah? Such an idiot!
Elijah was embarrassed, "...I just went over to say hello."
"Oh," Tate responded. He didn’t bother to argue with Elijah.
The Bates family was famous in J City, so Winnie and Parker was just a match.
Tonight, on the 80th birthday of Mr. Bates, almost all the upper classes of J City came.
As soon as Austin and Suny entered the hall, they drove many people’s attention.
People wouldn’t take Winnie's words seriously. Half a year ago, Austin made an announcement to pursue Suny again. The news could still be found on the Internet. When they entered together, many people wondered if Austin succeeded.
But still, Suny made many people envious.
Women loved competing with each other. No matter how excellent Suny was, they would never admit that was true.
