The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 1408

They quickly shut the door behind them. Patting on her chest to soothe herself, Cindy asked, “What’s going on?”

Shaking his head, the driver said, “I don’t know. I was waiting here all this time, but there weren’t this many people

around. They swarmed over as soon as you stepped out of the doorway. I suppose it’s because of the latest

development online.”

Cindy knew Hannah would definitely release some news online as soon as she was able to find someone to play the

role of Ian’s girlfriend, so she dared not read anything, as reading anything about herself was a completely different

matter from reading news about other people. On the other hand, Ian seemed as calm as ever while leaning back

in his seat. “Let’s leave.”

They returned to the agency. Ian was assigned a place to live by the company, where they would be staying over

that night. Upon dropping Ian off, Cindy was ready to leave with the driver, as she had her own dormitory. However,

Ian turned to look at her after getting out of the car. “You should come too.”

It wasn’t until then that it hit her that she was now acting as his girlfriend. Pursing her lips, she got out of the car

after some thought, and the two of them returned to Ian’s place. It wasn’t Cindy’s first visit to the deluxe studio

apartment. Standing by the door, she said, “I will leave later on tonight.”

Ian said nothing when he took off his shoes, then he got himself a change of clothes. After he came back out, Cindy

was still standing by the door, so he asked, “Why are you standing there? Have a seat.”

Without even checking on Cindy’s reaction, he sat down on the sofa before taking out his phone to scroll through

the most recent news. He was still the center of attention, as netizens were still trying to uncover the identity of his

girlfriend. After scrolling through the article, he snorted.

His agency was efficient indeed, as they managed to overturn the situation within a day. While everyone was

focused on his photos that they found on social media, they had directed their attention toward the sneak shots. Ian

heaved a sigh, seemingly more at ease about the situation now.

After pondering over the situation, Cindy came into the house after changing her shoes. She stood some distance

away from him while asking, “What would you like for dinner?” Ian put his phone down before replying, “I’m fine

with anything. You can order whatever you want.” Heaving a sigh, Cindy said, “Let’s just order takeaway. I’ll go with

whatever that I see first.” Aside from giving a grunt, Ian said nothing else. The two of them didn’t interact at all

while in the same space, as both were busying themselves with their respective tasks on their phone as if they were

in their own separate spaces. Later on, the doorbell rang, which Cindy immediately recognized as a sign that their

dinner had arrived. She opened the door to see the delivery man outside the house, and she thanked him while

taking the food from him. However, the man didn’t respond, but his gaze was fixated on Cindy’s face, unnerving

her. “Is something the matter?” Meanwhile, Ian came over from the living room. “What’s going on?” The delivery

man spoke as soon as he saw Ian. “Oh, it’s nothing.

” With that, he left the place. Ian smiled as he already had an idea of what just happened. Closing the door, he told

Cindy, “Come, let’s have dinner.” It’s tiring to have to constantly put up an act, he thought to himself. After eating

dinner with Ian, Cindy settled down on the sofa, figuring she would leave later on. However, news broke before long

regarding sightings of a woman in Ian’s house who was wearing his clothes, behaving rather intimately with Ian.

Cindy was taken aback by the news. While it was true that there was indeed a woman in Ian’s house, that woman

wasn’t wearing his clothes. She lowered her head to check on her own outfit that Hannah gave her. Then, she knew

what it indicated.
