The corners of Ian’s mouth curved upward. “Do you usually watch horror movies with such an attitude?”

Cindy solemnly nodded. “Didn’t you realize that this horror movie appears less frightening after I’d said that? I can

adjust the atmosphere with my attitude and make people less afraid.”

Ian stared at her for a while before he nodded without saying anything. It seemed as though he was only now

beginning to understand her slightly.

At the end of the month, Ian took a day off because his mother was coming. Cindy had never heard him mentioning

his mother before, but back when news of his background circulated widely on the Internet, she’d read a bit of it.

Thus, she knew that his mother, Aurora Peyton, was once a renowned singer and was a huge hit in the

entertainment industry. However, she then met Ian’s scumbag father, and her entire life was ruined.

Ian’s mother came in the morning, whereupon Cindy and Ian both waited for her outside the community. His

mother had permed hair while wearing a tight-fitting shirt and wide-leg pants, coupled with kitten heels.

Undeniably, she still looked very much attractive.

Ian didn’t go over to his mother but stood by the community gate, so Cindy stood beside him. His mother was even

wearing sunglasses, and as she stepped out of the taxi, she studied Ian for a while before walking over. Then, she

remarked, “This is quite an easy place to find. Come, let’s go in. I forgot to have some water before leaving home,

so I’m rather thirsty.” She acted as though this was her own territory.

Cindy was a tad awkward, not quite sure how she should greet her. Nonetheless, Aurora didn’t even look at them,

walking into the community area herself. Ian turned, and at the same time, he said to Cindy, “Let’s go.” With just

that meeting, Cindy could tell that Ian’s relationship with his mother wasn’t good.

After walking a distance, Aurora slowed down and waited for them. When Ian and Cindy had caught up with her,

she then commented, “I saw the news about the two of you on the Internet. Are you both truly dating?”

A tad embarrassed, Cindy didn’t quite know what to say. This is Ian’s mother, so I can probably tell her the truth,

but it’s best to have fewer people in the know when it comes to this matter. She turned and looked at Ian, telling

him without words to answer this question himself

He can decide himself whether to tell her the truth. While Ian didn’t look at her, he understood her meaning. He

merely grunted in assent as an answer to Aurora. Subsequently, Aurora shifted her gaze to Cindy, looking her up

and down. It wasn’t certain whether she was satisfied, but she then retracted her gaze a few seconds later. The

three of them went back to their place upstairs. The moment Aurora stepped into the house, she looked around

before heading straight to the sofa and sat down. “I actually arrived yesterday, but it was too late. I didn’t want to

bother you, which was why I stayed the night at the hotel. This time, I mainly came back to see you.” Taking a bottle

of mineral water and juice from the refrigerator, Ian went over and placed them on the coffee table. “What’s to see

about me?” His words and tone sounded rather rude. On the other hand, Cindy walked over and sat down beside

him without interrupting them. Aurora wasn’t at all offended.

Slipping off her sunglasses, she placed them on the coffee table before snagging the juice and twisting the cap

open. In a single go, she guzzled half the bottle. When she put it back down, she said, “I was planning to come

some time ago, but I was delayed.” Ian looked at her thoughtfully. “Even if you’d come earlier, I was very busy, so I

wouldn’t have had time to entertain you.” He was so brash in his speech that Cindy turned and glanced at him,

gently patting him on the arm. Although she didn’t quite like Aurora either, feeling that her affair with Bryce Morgan

had dragged Ian down, she still thought that there wasn’t any need for impertinent remarks that would make the

atmosphere awkward since Aurora was already sitting here in the house. Aurora chuckled, not at all bothered

about his words and tone. “I’m actually very surprised that you debuted. But it’s a good thing since your brilliant

voice isn’t wasted,” she noted.
