Chapter 1935 Hazel’s Act

Hazel hesitated when she noticed that Cindy hadn’t argued against her statement at all. “Do you really know him?

Do you know his family?”

Cindy’s gaze landed on her mother’s phone. “You saw the news. Don’t you know that I was there with him when his

father passed away previously? I know everything about his family. I was there for all of it.”

Hazel wasn’t aware of the events that Cindy just mentioned. She wasn’t good at searching for news online, so she

had just tapped on the first article that she saw. The one she read was about how sweet Ian and Cindy were as a

couple, and she didn’t know anything about Ian’s father’s passing.

“Ah… What about his mom? What’s his mom like?” Hazel asked.

Cindy considered this question for a moment before she picked out some unimportant things about Aurora to tell

her mother. Cindy told Hazel that Aurora was a nice person, that Ian was nice, that Ian’s father had left him a huge

inheritance that came with a sum of money, property, cars, and stocks. “Ian and I could not work for the rest of our

lives, and we’d still have enough to live comfortably,” Cindy added at the end.

Hazel immediately felt more reassured upon hearing what Cindy said. “That’s great. I feel less worried, then,” she

uttered with a smile.

Cindy, on the other hand, felt rather uneasy after saying what she said. The fact that Hazel looked so relaxed and

pleased after hearing about Ian’s wealth made Cindy more annoyed than ever.

Hazel held Cindy’s hand as she continued speaking. “I feel so much better after hearing that you’re able to get

married to a good man. You’ve suffered when you were young, so I really hope that you get married to a good man

so that you can enjoy the rest of your life in peace. If Ian is able to give that to you, then there’s nothing else that I

can ask for.”

Hazel phrased her words in a kind manner, and Cindy frowned for a brief moment when she realized what Hazel

was trying to do. So, that’s why she mentioned all those concerns at the beginning. “Okay, I got it,” Cindy uttered as

she pulled her hand away and stood up. “You should get some rest. I’m going to go to bed now.”

However, Cindy wasn’t sleepy at all. She stepped out of Hazel’s room and let out a sigh after shutting the door. She

knew that she shouldn’t allow herself to be troubled by this matter—she had expected this after all.

Ian and Cindy spent the next two days in Cindy’s house. They spent most of their time at home on the first day, and

Ian accompanied Cindy to visit her father’s grave on the second day. That night, they booked flight tickets to leave

early the next morning.

Throughout their two days at home, Hazel treated Cindy the usual way that she did. However, on the third day,

when Cindy was about to leave, Hazel clung onto Cindy’s hand and wailed while saying that she would miss Cindy.

This wasn’t the first time Cindy had encountered such a matter.

Back when Cindy was still in school, she would go home during the holidays. At that time, Hazel wouldn’t pay much

attention to her, but Hazel would always make it a point to cry when Cindy was returning back to school. Hazel

would claim that she felt sorry for Cindy, and that she would miss her a lot.

Cindy had seen the same thing happen one too many times—she didn’t feel much apart from disgust toward her

mother. Ian, who was watching from the side, seemed sorrier for Hazel. He glanced at the mother-daughter pair

with a rather thoughtful and sad look on his face. Cindy had no way of telling him that it was all an act, so the most

she could do was to ensure that she didn’t express any sarcasm on her face.

Once Hazel was done crying, Cindy and Ian got in the car and left. As the car drove off, Cindy glanced in the

rearview mirror to see the main entrance of her house. Hazel didn’t even see them off to the front door—she

merely wailed and sobbed inside the house. She doesn’t even go all out with her acting, Cindy thought as she

looked away and leaned against the seat.

I’m so thankful that I have Ian now, she thought as she slipped her hand into Ian’s. I can finally get rid of this family.

Once the car arrived at the airport, Cindy and Ian found a seat to rest. There were still quite a lot of people at the

airport at this hour.
