Chapter 1486


    Chapter 1486 Developing a Rtionship


    Cindy only got up at noon the next day.


    Ian had a shoot that morning, so he had already left the house by the time she woke up. To some


    extent, Cindy had deliberately gotten up at the time she did because she didn’t exactly want to run into


    him.


    In truth, she couldn’t quite exin it either; perhaps Ian’s distant attitudest night had ticked her off.


    Although she had thought about it and remembered that Ian behaved like that even before then, she


    shouldn’t overthink things. Besides, they used to get along well.


    However, she couldn’t hide the awkwardness she felt.


    If they were both going to be ufortable being in the same room, why not avoid it then?


    After Cindy had gotten up, she washed her face and freshened herself up. Then, she headed to the


    kitchen.


    She had made a lot of foodst night, and there were plenty of leftovers from the meal. The food could


    actually be microwaved, but Ian clearly hadn’t touched a single morsel of it.


    As such, Cindy couldn’t quite hold herself back. She snorted before she reheated the food and ate her


    meal alone. She then checked the time and decided it was time to head out. First, she booked a hotel


    room and stowed her own luggage inside it before hailing a taxi to go to the airport and pick up Naomi.


    Meanwhile, Naomi’s flight arrived on time.


    Cindy hadn’t seen her in a long time, so she felt a little excited as she stood in the arrival hall. She


    immediately caught sight of Naomi the moment she appeared—then, Cindy immediately hopped up


    and down and waved. “I’m here, Naomi!”


    Naomi dashed over the moment she saw Cindy. She surveyed thetter and grinned. “Couple clothes, I


    see.”


    Cindy felt a little embarrassed, for most of her outfits had been nned beforehand by Hannah. Her


    rtionship with Ian now wasn’t exactly normal. Ian’s poprity made it a bad idea for them to openly


    show off their rtionship, so the only way they could express it was through subtle hints like this.


    Cindy rushed over to help wheel Naomi’s things. “Come on, I already booked the room.”


    “Does Ian have to film today too? I’m rather envious of you. You work as an assistant for a celebrity,


    and you managed to snag him in the end,” Naomi quickly said.


    Cindy chuckled tly over and over again.


    Then, the two of them took a taxi to the hotel. Cindy ced Naomi’s things down before pulling her


    over to survey her. “It’s been a while since thest time we met. Look at you! You’ve changed so much!


    You’re already an office worker.”


    Naomi pouted. “Making fun of me now, aren’t you? How can Ipare to you? You’re about to be


    rich. Ian’s a money-making machine, so I’ll have to stick to you in the future.”


    Cindy thought of the time Gary wanted to help her out with investing. If she could get Gary to give her


    some advice, she could be rich even without Ian.


    Hence, Cindy promptly thumped her chest. “Don’t worry, I won’t abandon you once I be rich in the


    future.”


    Naomi stepped forward and hugged Cindy. “I’m going to write all of that down in my notebook.”


    The two of them chatted for a while before heading down to the hotel’s restaurant to eat. As they ate,


    Cindy looked at her phone. Judging from the current time, Ian should have finished his shoot and


    arrived home already. Without Cindy at home to cook for him, he would have no choice but to eat the


    leftovers even if he didn’t want to.


    Upon thinking about that, Cindy felt like she had somehow rxed.


    After their meal, the two women returned to their hotel room to rest. Naomi was curious about many


    aspects of Cindy’s rtionship with Ian, constantly pestering her for answers. Meanwhile, Cindy


    couldn’t leave Naomi hanging—hiding things would make it easy to pique Naomi’s suspicions, after all.


    As such, Cindy could only pick some simple questions to answer, like how Ian’s work day was normally


    like, or what they normally did at home. She mostly chose to answer with some incidents that had


    actually happened. She wasn’t a master at making things out of thin air, and besides, it was easy for


    her lies to not align with each other if she did do that.

    Stars nearly shot out of Naomi’s eyes. “Why does all of this sound so romantic? I’m so envious of


    rtionships that have developed over a long period of time like yours.”


    Every time Naomi gushed like this, Cindy felt awkward. It wasn’t the least bit romantic.


    Anyway, nothing developed between them either.
