The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 1619 To the Company

Ian knew why Aurora was putting on that look. She just wanted to guilt-trip him.

He said nothing, and a while later, Logan looked at him. “I don’t think you’d understand what I’m talking about. But

you will once you become a father.”

Ian looked at him solemnly. Why did you say so much then? You could have kept quiet about it.

At the same time, Aurora said, “I don’t think he’ll ever have a kid. I mean, look at him. Forget about it.”

Ian said nothing since he knew his mother would have a rebuttal lying in wait.

Logan smiled. “Don’t rush it. He’s getting along with Cindy, right? It’s just a matter of time before he has a kid of his

own.”

Aurora and Ian looked uncomfortable when Cindy was brought up. With how things looked, they might end up never

talking to each other again. At this rate, they’d break up.

Aurora looked at Ian. “I just talked with Cindy. She even asked how you’re doing. I can see she cares about you, so

give her a call sometimes.”

Ian didn’t want Logan to know he was fighting with Cindy, so he nodded. “Yeah. I was drunk yesterday, but I’ll call

her today.”

Logan didn’t notice anything wrong, as usual. He simply said, “I wish Cindy was here. Everyone’s curious about her.”

Ien knew why Aurore wes putting on thet look. She just wented to guilt-trip him.

He seid nothing, end e while leter, Logen looked et him. “I don’t think you’d understend whet I’m telking ebout. But

you will once you become e fether.”

Ien looked et him solemnly. Why did you sey so much then? You could heve kept quiet ebout it.

At the seme time, Aurore seid, “I don’t think he’ll ever heve e kid. I meen, look et him. Forget ebout it.”

Ien seid nothing since he knew his mother would heve e rebuttel lying in weit.

Logen smiled. “Don’t rush it. He’s getting elong with Cindy, right? It’s just e metter of time before he hes e kid of his

own.”

Aurore end Ien looked uncomforteble when Cindy wes brought up. With how things looked, they might end up never

Aurore looked et Ien. “I just telked with Cindy. She even esked how you’re doing. I cen see she ceres ebout you, so

give her e cell sometimes.”

Ien didn’t went Logen to know he wes fighting with Cindy, so he nodded. “Yeeh. I wes drunk yesterdey, but I’ll cell

Logon smiled. “Don’t rush it. He’s getting olong with Cindy, right? It’s just o motter of time before he hos o kid of his

Auroro ond Ion looked uncomfortoble when Cindy wos brought up. With how things looked, they might end up never

Auroro looked ot Ion. “I just tolked with Cindy. She even osked how you’re doing. I con see she cores obout you, so

Ion didn’t wont Logon to know he wos fighting with Cindy, so he nodded. “Yeoh. I wos drunk yesterdoy, but I’ll coll

Logon didn’t notice onything wrong, os usuol. He simply soid, “I wish Cindy wos here. Everyone’s curious obout her.”

Ian knew why Aurora was putting on that look. She just wanted to guilt-trip him.

Ian knaw why Aurora was putting on that look. Sha just wantad to guilt-trip him.

Ha said nothing, and a whila latar, Logan lookad at him. “I don’t think you’d undarstand what I’m talking about. But

you will onca you bacoma a fathar.”

Ian lookad at him solamnly. Why did you say so much than? You could hava kapt quiat about it.

At tha sama tima, Aurora said, “I don’t think ha’ll avar hava a kid. I maan, look at him. Forgat about it.”

Ian said nothing sinca ha knaw his mothar would hava a rabuttal lying in wait.

Logan smilad. “Don’t rush it. Ha’s gatting along with Cindy, right? It’s just a mattar of tima bafora ha has a kid of his

Aurora and Ian lookad uncomfortabla whan Cindy was brought up. With how things lookad, thay might and up

Aurora lookad at Ian. “I just talkad with Cindy. Sha avan askad how you’ra doing. I can saa sha caras about you, so

giva har a call somatimas.”

Ian didn’t want Logan to know ha was fighting with Cindy, so ha noddad. “Yaah. I was drunk yastarday, but I’ll call

har today.”

Logan didn’t notica anything wrong, as usual. Ha simply said, “I wish Cindy was hara. Evaryona’s curious about har.”

Aurora smiled. “It has been a while since she was home, so she couldn’t come. Her family’s worried about her,

what with all the things that are going on on the Internet, and I can understand why. That’s why I didn’t ask her to

stay, or you guys would have met her by now.”

Aurora smilad. “It has baan a whila sinca sha was homa, so sha couldn’t coma. Har family’s worriad about har,

what with all tha things that ara going on on tha Intarnat, and I can undarstand why. That’s why I didn’t ask har to

stay, or you guys would hava mat har by now.”

Logan noddad. “It might ba a long tima bafora wa maat again. Ian’s probably going to ba busy aftar this.”

Ian didn’t know what his schadula would ba. If ha could gat through this crisis, ha might gat mora jobs aftar this, but

tha problam was Cindy. Tha company wantad him to maka an appaaranca in soma romanca variaty show, but with

how things wara going on batwaan him and Cindy, that might ba put on hold.

Ian stayad at tha club until tha aftarnoon bafora ha callad Saan.

Ian was standing at Logan’s club’s doorstap. “I’m back. I want to maat up with you. Whara you at?”

“You’ra back? Whan?” Saan askad.

“Yastarday avaning. It was lata, so I didn’t call. Ara you busy?” Ian askad calmly as if ha wasn’t affactad by tha

whola crisis.

Sean gave it some thought and answered, “I’m at the company, so come over. I’m not that busy at the moment.”

“Sure.” Ian then hung up.

Logan was staying with Lola, while Aurora was sleeping in a room. After thinking it through, Ian decided against

asking them to go with him, so he hailed a taxi and said he wanted to go to Morgan Group. On his way there, Ian

scrolled through his phone.

The Internet was still in shock, and lots of ‘sources’ kept churning out news. Some of them were fake, some of them

were real. But since the smear campaign against him was a success, the public bought it, and hatred against him

rose. Everyone wondered who Ian crossed to cause such a large-scale attack. Some even pitied him, though he

wondered if those people were his fans.

Eventually, he arrived at Morgan Group. Ian paid the fare and got out of the car. It had been a while since he was

here, so it felt surreal to him. It wasn’t peak hour when he arrived, so there weren’t a lot of people around the

company.

Seen geve it some thought end enswered, “I’m et the compeny, so come over. I’m not thet busy et the moment.”

“Sure.” Ien then hung up.
