Meanwhile, Sunny and the others didn’t leave because they hadn’t received Sophie’s call.

“Mark, is Sophie in trouble? It shouldn’t take her longer than three or four minutes to ride the elevator. Why hasn’t she called after so long? We should go up and check on her,” Sunny uttered worryingly.

“Give her a call first.” Now that Sophie is officially dating someone, the situation will become awkward if we go up and end up meeting Mr. Tristan there.

“Why? Wouldn’t it be easier to go upstairs directly and check on her?” We’ve been waiting here for half an hour.

“What if Mr. Tristan is there?” Mark glanced at Sunny. The latter was still young, so it was normal for him to consider a matter from fewer perspectives.

Sunny was rendered speechless this time.

“Are you all right, Mark?” Undeniably, Sophie has rejected him, so he must be feeling anguished.

“I’m fine. Seriously. It is common for everyone to experience rejection. You all don’t have to feel so worried about me. I am quite tough.”

There are so many other options out there for me. I am Mark Wheeler, after all. If I wish to, I can make girls offer themselves up to me with a flick of my finger.

“Shut up, Sunny!” Another one of the band members was at the limit of his patience.

Sunny was still young, and he had always hung out with them. He didn’t have any dating experience, so it was a given for him to be clueless about how it felt to be lovelorn.

Mark was behaving in a typical manner as someone caught up in unrequited love. They would try their best to pretend they were fine in front of others regardless of the circumstances, and they didn’t want others to sympathize with them.

“All right, then.” Sunny had no choice but to take out his phone and call Sophie.

Sophie was feeding Tristan when her phone rang. Hearing the ringtone, she put down the spoon in her hand before picking up the phone.

“Have you all gone back?” Sophie had completely forgotten about her promise to call Mark and the others.

“What the h*ll are you doing, Sophie? Didn’t you say you would call us once you reached? Why haven’t you called after so long? I was about to rush upstairs, thinking something bad might’ve happened to you,” Sunny immediately jabbered away after hearing her voice.
