The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 1407

After that, Hannah added, “We will be making the transaction in a while, so kindly check when it’s done.”

Cindy exhaled before finally giving a curt reply. “Sure.” While she did wish for Ian to be able to thrive, as it would

ensure the continuity of her own career, Hannah’s offer was another major factor for consideration. After all, Cindy

was in desperate need of the money.

Ian had to attend an interview that afternoon which Cindy would have to follow as usual. However, this time,

Hannah picked out an outfit for her that she would be required to wear while following Ian around. Cindy was

normally in charge of arranging Ian’s outfits, so she quickly realized what was going on when she saw the outfit

Hannah gave her. Without a word, she took it from Hannah before changing into it.

There were a lot of people in the agency, but due to Ian’s status and the resources he held, the other celebrities

would by extension treat Cindy nicely. Such treatment was nonexistent anywhere outside the agency. Ian and her

hung around till afternoon, leaving after that to attend the interview. As per usual, Cindy accompanied Ian to the

venue, and she waited outside while Ian was being interviewed in the room.

Counting in the break, the interview lasted for an hour and a half. Throughout the wait, she sat spaced out on the

chair outside the room. Most of the time, she was recalling what Hannah told her. Ian didn’t want anybody

uncovering his girlfriend’s identity, so he wanted someone to pretend to be his girlfriend. It just so happened that

Cindy was Hannah’s first choice when it came to the role of Ian’s pretend-girlfriend.

She wasn’t sure what qualities Hannah saw in her that made her the first choice. On the other hand, she was also

lamenting the fact that Ian had indeed broken up with his girlfriend. How he was trying to protect her even after

that showed just how responsible he was.

Meanwhile, her mind was still buzzing. Despite having been told that she didn’t need to do anything differently, she

could imagine the ruckus that their act would stir up. With their incompatibility, she was certain that Ian’s more

possessive fans would soon be criticizing her harshly. Cindy was heaving a sigh when there was a chime on her

phone. Taking it out, she saw a notification that indicated that two hundred thousand had just been transferred to

her bank account. She got back to her senses after staring at it for some time. Then, she logged in to her banking

app, only to see a good two hundred thousand added to her account. Truth be told, she never saw such a huge sum

of money in her life, as she had to send all of her money back home as soon as she got her salary, leaving her with

only a thousand or so to meet her needs. Previously, she hesitated to help Ian out as she didn’t want to get into too

much trouble, but the money that she got now was enough to eliminate every single ounce of hesitancy on her

part. After all, money was the most reliable resource in the world. Cindy stuck her phone close to her chest,

suddenly filled with a sense of security. As soon as Ian’s interview was over, they left the venue after bidding the

crew goodbye, only to realize they were surrounded by the media as soon as they got out. Before they could even

react, their photos were already taken by the media, catching both of them off guard. Ian’s immediate reaction was

to turn around to block Cindy’s face from view. “Let’s go!” Cindy lowered her head upon noticing his reaction.

Meanwhile, the driver already had the doors of the car open while waving at them. “Over here!” Worried that they

might get separated by the crowd, Cindy cutched onto Ian’s arm while they squeezed through the crowd to make

their way to the car. There were a few people who began asking questions while sticking their microphones out, but

Cindy didn’t even register what they were asking due to sheer anxiety and the amount of questions she was being

asked. Despite some setbacks, they eventually managed to get into the car safely. .
