    Chapter 1640 Estranged Friendship


    She knew who Sophia was, since she had looked her up online. Cindy also knew how special Sophia


    was to Ian as well. However, all she did was purse her lips and look away, pretending she didn’t see it.

    Ian picked his phone up, but instead of taking it immediately, he went to his room and closed the door.


    Cindy couldn’t suspect him of cheating, but it still made her feel uneasy. Then, she turned around and


    went to sit beside Aurora. “I want to sleep with you tonight, Aurora. Seriously.” She leaned her head on


    Aurora’s shoulder.


    Aurora patted her head. “So you aren’t forgiving him, are you?”


    Cindy pursed her lips, but she said nothing. Given their rtionship, she didn’t think he needed to be


    forgiven by her. It wasn’t that deep yet. Sure, they weren’t as tense as they had been, but they couldn’t


    go back to how they were. Not after that chaotic kiss.


    At the same time, Ian took the call the moment he went into his room. “Ian!” Sophia immediately said.


    “It’s me. What is it? Anything you need?”


    Sophia chuckled. “Why? Can’t I call you for just a chat?” She was joking, but he could hear the


    comint in it. After all, why wouldn’t she? They used to be best friends, but they weren’t anymore.


    Ian knew he said the wrong thing, so he exined, “I don’t mean that. I just thought you had something


    going on.”


    Sophia sighed. “Logan says you’re treating us to a meal tomorrow, so I thought why not have it at my


    ce? Since I want to treat you guys as well, we can just have this one meal.”


    Ian frowned, but he didn’t reply immediately.


    Sophia waited for a minute before saying, “I mean, you might have to go somewhere for your job at any


    time, so I don’t want to dy this in case you can’t free up your time. That’s why I want to do it sooner.


    If you don’t want to merge the meals, then we’ll have it at my ce tomorrow, and you can treat us next


    time. What do you think?”


    Ian wasn’t refusing her. He would have said yes immediately in the past, but with Cindy here, he


    wanted to be a bit formal. He wanted to introduce her during the dinner, but now that Sophia had


    changed the n, he sighed. “I’m just trying to say that it’s discourteous of me if you’re the one being


    the host all the time. Fine. I’ll go to your ce tomorrow. If we have time, we can eat out.”


    Sophia smiled. “Don’t think too much about it. We’re all friends, so don’t be so formal. I care about our


    friendship.”


    Ian sighed silently and looked up. He didn’t feel anything after hearing that. If it was in the past, he’d be


    upset, but not now. “Yeah, sure,” he said curtly.


    Sophia noticed it was getting awkward, as if they weren’t close anymore, so she ended the call right


    there.


    After that, he turned around to look at the bed. Apparently, Cindy didn’t take up a lot of space earlier,


    and she didn’t even use the nket. She’s starting to get too careful at my ce. It didn’t sit right with


    him, but he couldn’tin about it either.


    He stayed there for a while before going out. Aurora and Cindy were holding their phones, and judging


    from their conversation, Cindy was teaching Aurora how to y a mobile game. Aurora looked excited,


    for it was the first time she yed mobile games.


    Ian stood at the doorway, staring at them. Nobody would question it if I said they were mother and


    daughter. Hm, a daughter-inw counts as a daughter, I… What am I thinking? He wondered why he


    had that kind of idea, but he squashed it immediately.


    Cindy and Aurora yed a match, and it ended in Aurora’s total loss.
