Chapter 1664 Should I Visit Him?

Ian had wrapped his arm around Cindy’s waist. In a daze, he had even caressed her forehead with his chin. She

couldn’t explain what she felt at that moment, but she knew that she didn’t hate it. She was simply a little afraid

since it was unfamiliar territory to her.

Soon enough, Aurora hurried out of the kitchen. When Cindy heard Aurora’s voice, she hastily tidied her hair before

walking out of the washroom. Aurora had no idea what happened between Cindy and Ian, so her speech and

expression remained natural when she saw Cindy. “You’re awake! Do you have a headache? Do you need me to

prepare some tea for you to freshen up?”

To Cindy’s surprise, she didn’t get a hangover at all. John had prepared high-quality red wine that wouldn’t cause

any side effects even if one had a little too much to drink. Cindy felt rather sleepy and drowsy, but she was fine

apart from that. “There’s no need for that. I had a good rest. What about you? You look like you had a lot to drink

last night. Did you get a hangover today?” Cindy kept glancing at Ian subtly as she responded to Aurora.

Ian was sitting upright, and his gaze was fixed on the television. He looked as if he was immersed in whatever he

was watching. “I’m just a little sleepy. I had too much fun last night, and I might have gone overboard with the

drinks,” Aurora uttered with a laugh. She didn’t have a hangover either.

After giving Aurora a nod, Cindy headed over to the dining table. Aurora took two steps in the same direction

before she turned around to stare at Ian. “Why are you still sitting over there? Don’t you want to eat?”

Ian wasn’t his usual self as his responses were delayed today. “Yeah! Yeah, of course,” he answered after a long

pause.

“What’s up with you?” This version of him amused Aurora. “Why are you so out of it today?”

When Ian walked over without responding, Cindy lowered her gaze as she sat at the dining table. I know what’s up

with him. He’s probably too stunned after what happened last night. Everything’s just too shocking. I’m as stunned

as he is, but I’m better at acting calm, she thought.

Ian didn’t look at Cindy even as he sat down right in front of her. He could still recall the blurry sensation he felt the

night before, where a woman’s warm figure rested in his arms. He felt as if he was still holding onto Cindy’s waist at

that moment. Stop it, Ian! Stop paying so much attention to that memory. The more you think of it, the more you’ll

get nasty thoughts, he reminded himself.

Cindy took a sip of her soy milk as she tried her best not to blush. Ian was sitting directly in front of her, and she

couldn’t stop herself from feeling shy when she looked at him. It was the first time a man other than her father had

ever hugged her.

Throughout their meal, Aurora was the only one who spoke. “Old Mrs. Constance left a really good impression on

me,” she commented. She went on to talk about how Matilda seemed nice to Sophia. “It’s probably because Old

Mrs. Constance was also nice to Mrs. Constance,” she speculated. It was natural for family members to influence

one another, after all.

Ian pressed his lips together. He couldn’t bring himself to point out that Matilda actually didn’t like Sophia at all. In

fact, Matilda had played a huge role in Sophia and John’s divorce.

Since Aurora didn’t have much of an appetite, she leaned against her chair after eating a little. She figured that she

was still slightly drunk from the night before. “Last night, Old Mrs. Constance sang a song that I used to sing when I

was younger. If I’m being honest, I barely remember how to sing that song. It’s been years, and memories fade as

time passes indeed.”

Upon hearing Aurora’s words, Cindy turned to see a somewhat disappointed expression on Aurora’s face. After a

moment of silence, Cindy turned to look at Ian. “When are you visiting your father?”

Ian hadn’t gone to the hospital at all because Sean had mentioned that he would let Bryce know Ian was coming,

and then Ian could wait for Bryce to make an appointment. All the news sites stated that Bryce was severely ill, and

Bryce had even refused to meet Leah a while ago, so Ian was taken aback when he found out that Bryce had

agreed to meet him.

“We haven’t decided on a day. I’m waiting for Sean to get back to me,” Ian uttered absent-mindedly.

“Do you think I should pay him a visit too?” Aurora pouted as she spoke.

Ian knitted his brows upon hearing this. “Do you want to visit him?”

She scoffed. “I just want to see how bad of a state he’s in now; that’s all.”

“Forget it, then.” Ian didn’t think it was a good idea for Aurora to visit with such intentions. “He’s not suffering as

much as you think he is. If you go over, you probably won’t get to taunt him. If anything, he might even put you in a

bad mood!”
