Chapter 1402
Ian wore a cold expression while pursing his lips, as he knew the driver was right. Turning around to adjust her position, Cindy wondered if
she was being too sensitive, as she had a hunch that there might be something wrong between Ian and his girlfriend.
When they arrived at their next destination, Ian was still looking morose. Although he wasn’t a cheerful guy to begin with, Cindy could detect
that he was unhappy. His displeasure essentially meant that he would be silent throughout the shooting process. When Cindy and Ian got to the
lounge at the filming set, the other guest celebrities who were in it also pretended to be busy to avoid socializing with Ian. However, he wasn’t
in the mood to socialize either, as he even omitted the customary greeting.
His sour mood was apparent from the sulk on his face, but she figured the others might assume that he was feeling upset because of the
scandal. Therefore, Cindy did her best to keep a low profile while with Ian as she didn’t want to make things even more difficult for him when
he was already feeling down.
The shooting went smoothly, as Ian was now being feared due to the fact that he had overturned the scandal online. Although none of the
guests wanted to approach him, nor were they about to get onto his bad side. Not wanting to be associated with his scandal, they kept a
moderate distance from him.
The production crew ordered takeaway for them during lunch. Under normal circumstances, everybody would have lunch together in the
lounge, but Ian was a little grumpy, so he left to eat in his car while pulling Cindy behind him.
Cindy could easily imagine that the other guests would be criticizing him behind their back as being arrogant, but she couldn’t bring herself to
care, as life was too short for such mundane concerns. Meanwhile, the driver was astonished by their presence, so he asked, “What’s wrong?
Did a fight break out?”
Shaking her head, Cindy indicated to him that he should talk less for the day, so he obeyed despite not really understanding the reason behind
it. Ian didn’t have much of an appetite, as he put his lunchbox down after just a few bites. Leaning against his seat, he seemed to be deep in
thought, whereas both Cindy and the driver exchanged a nce as they sat in their respective seats before deciding to feign ignorance.

After a while, Ian’s phone rang. Cindy checked on him through the rearview mirror to see him fishing for his phone before staring at it with a
frown
Although she didn’t know who the caller was, she had a feeling that it wasn’t anyone from the agency. Sure enough, Ian picked up the call
after getting out of the car. The call was from John, who read about the news online just now. Almost insipidly, John asked over the
connection, “Are you alright? It seems like you’re just about settled though.” Sniggering, Ian questioned, “Why would you suddenly care
about me?” John chuckled as well before exining himself. “Why would I care about you? Sophia wanted to call you, so I stepped in to stop
her from contacting you.” Well, he sure doesn’t mince his words. Ian said nothing, as he had nothing to say to John. After a pause, John said,
“It’s alright if you don’t want to talk, since I figured you should be alright. A scandal like that is nothing in your industry, so you shouldn’t
consider yourself a celebrity if you can’t settle things on your own.” With that, he hung up before Ian could react. Ian’s face was devoid of
expression. Earlier, he was hesitating on whether he should tell John about Sophia’s potential predicament as his so-called girlfriend. Although
he never got to that point with Sophia, he didn’t want to implicate her. However, John’s rudeness rendered Ian speechless, so he figured he
wouldn’t tell him. Instead, he would just take things one step at a time. Meanwhile, back in the car, Cindy was taking a close look at Ian’s
expression throughout the phone call. .
