The internet was the best place for verbal assaults, as both Ian’s fans and those who were slandering him were

both relentless in their apprehension of the other party. Cindy had a softer personality, so she wasn’t sure why

people were able to spout such vile words online without considering its consequences. However, she supposed

they were pushovers in real life who could only find some power by engaging in such activities online. In the end,

she put her phone away, deciding that she would ignore the matter altogether to save herself some anguish.

The sudden free time had Cindy feeling ill at ease. She had been working alongside Ian ever since his debut. As long

as he didn’t take time off, nor did she. They had been keeping themselves as busy as a bee all this time, so she

eventually got accustomed to the lifestyle in the process. However, the scandal forced them to grind to a halt.

While she wasn’t sure how Ian felt about it, she knew it didn’t sit well with her.

She lay in bed for a moment, but got up after a while as she had a hard time staying still. After loitering about in her

room for a while, she checked on the web again, only to see that Hannah had yet to offer the public any form of

explanation. As long as they remained silent, the scandal would continue to fester. To be honest, Cindy wasn’t sure

what Hannah was up to, as she figured she would instantly publish the recording she had if it were up to her. Now

that things were festering and affecting Ian’s reputation, Cindy could no longer remain as calm.

Mulling over the situation, she went over and knocked on Ian’s door, which he answered immediately. He seemed to

be at ease, seemingly enjoying the rare downtime. Cindy’s visit was within expectations, so he let her into his room

while asking, “What’s the matter? Do you have a hard time calming down?”

However, Cindy could hardly smile, as she wasn’t feeling as jovial as him. After closing the door behind her, she

questioned in a hushed voice, “Does the recording not suffice as proof? Why else would Ms. Jones withhold from

making it public?”

Turning around, Ian went and sat down on the sofa. “Don’t worry, since rushing things won’t help the situation. We’ll

just have to wait for a little longer.”

Cindy wasn’t feeling as unfazed as Ian. “Didn’t you see how people have been slandering you online? You won’t

have much of a reputation left if this keeps up.”

Lifting his head to glance at her, Ian figured that she was a young girl after all no matter how steadfast she usually

seemed, which was why she had a hard time keeping her cool.

He drank some water out of his bottle before explaining, “When it comes to such scandals, a major plot twist will

make things more interesting.” With her mouth agape, Cindy hummed in confusion, but Ian wasn’t about to explain

everything to her, so he muttered, “Just stay still.” Pondering on their circumstances, she settled down in Ian’s room

instead of returning to hers. Without work, they had nothing to say to each other. Although Cindy was waiting for

Hannah’s phone call to update them regarding their schedule, she ended up getting a call from her family.

Checking on the caller ID, she picked up before addressing the caller in a gentle tone. “Keith.” The caller was her

younger brother, who, after greeting Cindy, inquired about her recent situation. “Mom told me you sent us some

money, but do you have anything left for yourself? You already sent us money twice this month.” Pursing her lips,

she inhaled deeply before putting on a cheerful front. “You don’t have to worry about me, as I do have a job.

Instead, you need to focus on your studies.” Over the phone, Keith heaved a sigh.

“I’m feeling uneasy that we’re constantly asking for money from you.” Meanwhile, Cindy chuckled before replying,

“You shouldn’t be overthinking this, as it’s not your responsibility to.” Keith spoke after taking some time to calm

himself down. “Actually, Mom has quite a lot of money at her disposal, so you shouldn’t send her your money the

next time she asks. You don’t need to worry about us.” Letting out a hum, Cindy didn’t want to say much while in

Ian’s presence. “I understand that. Alright now, take care of yourself. I’ll be hanging up since I’m busy.” Keith hung

up after bidding her goodbye, whereas Cindy’s expression dimmed while putting her phone down.
