Clang!
Following that, she grabbed a dinner knife and stabbed it right into the center of the table.
“Why do the two of you have so much bullsh*t coming out of your mouths? And who the hell are you calling a tomboy?”
Phoenix questioned them coldly.
Even her enemies couldn’t make her shed a single tear on the battlefield.
What made these ladies think that they could bully her?
Phoenix fiddled with the dinner knife.
The threat was clear. She could send the knife flying straight through the necks of Zara and Yvette at any second.
Zara and Yvette were frightened stiff.
They exchanged a helpless look and laughed weakly. “I mean, we think you’re really great too! We’re so happy to have you join us!”
They were powerless against Phoenix, so they chose to keep their mouths shut.
The two of them only had the guts to bully those weaker than them, after all.
The nicer Zoey was to them, the more they took advantage of her.
But when faced with violence like the kind Phoenix had just demonstrated, they would chicken out immediately.
Zoey valued her friendships greatly. Since she was the one who asked them to be her bridesmaids, she had no choice but to put up with their bullying.
In fact, Zoey had a domineering side to her too. If it were not for her tolerance, she would have sent them packing for home already.
“Well, anyway, we will need to find a new group of groomsmen! This batch won’t do!”
Seeing that they couldn’t boss Phoenix around, Zara immediately turned to target the remaining four men.
Yvette nodded in concurrence. “That’s right. These groomsmen are horrendous! Look at the four of them. Their fashion sense is outdated. Their complexions are too dark, and some of them are bulky like bulls! Oh, this is terrible! They’ll seem so out of place next to bridesmaids like us!”
It was probably because Azure Dragon and the other three guys were all in plain clothing, not to mention the standard and boring military buzz cut they all had.
The whole look made them seem trigger-ready and unapproachable.
Zara and Yvette definitely wouldn’t make do with them.
“Zoey, you’ve got to listen to us. Get a few international models. They don’t even have to do anything else besides standing there, but they’ll make your wedding look much more prestigious,” Yvette suggested.
“Exactly! Your wedding’s got to be the best. Zoey, take a good look at these groomsmen! How are you supposed to work with them?”
Zara scoffed in disgust.
Zoey laughed awkwardly. “I think they’re great. All of them are Levi’s best friends. He treats them like his brothers! It’s just within expectations for him to invite them to be his groomsmen!”
Zara and Yvette scowled. “No way! They can’t be the groomsmen! We refuse to accept them!”
“Their expressions aren’t even right! I seriously suspect that they’re up to something! They won’t be fit to stand next to us!”
Upon hearing their remarks, Azure Dragon and his men were furious.
These b*tches seriously need some disciplining.
They’ll shut up the moment we land a few slaps on them.
Too bad they are Zoey’s friends.
For that reason, they didn’t dare speak their mind, despite being furious.
All they could do was to swallow their anger and remain silent.
Iris sighed next to them. “Do us all a favor, and make do with them, will you? We’re just choosing the groomsmen, so don’t put too much thought into it!”
However, Zara scoffed and turned to Zoey. “Zoey, we’re fine with letting you choose the groomsmen, but you’ve got to choose some whom we’re comfortable with! If you insist on having them as the groomsmen, then the two of us will refuse to be your bridesmaids!”
Yvette nodded along. “Yeah! If you insist on choosing them, then you can’t have us! Find some other girls to be your bridesmaids! Hmph!”
Zoey quickly jumped into the conversation to mediate the situation. “Come on. Don’t be like this! Let’s all calm down and talk this through, alright?”
Zoey didn’t want anyone to feel uneasy and hoped that they could all come to a peaceful consensus.
Little did she know that such kindness would only encourage those two girls to try and take advantage of her.
“That won’t do! Zoey, you’ve got to make a decision! Either you choose to have them as the groomsmen, or we stay as the bridesmaids! It’s one or the other!”
Zara and Yvette insisted on having Zoey make a decision.
“I…”
Zoey was at a loss for what to do.
How am I supposed to decide?
“Great! Just f*ck off if you don’t want to be a bridesmaid! Who the hell cares about the two of you?”
At that moment, Levi, who was at his wits’ end, yelled at Zara and Yvette in rage.
