    Chapter 1715 To Prevent Future Misunderstandings


    Truth be told, Ian’s recent behavior toward her suggested an intimacy that was beyond a usual


    rtionship.


    Truth be told, Ian’s recent behavior toward her suggested an intimacy that was beyond a usual


    rtionship.


    Although the two of them were pretending to be lovers, they both knew the truth behind this pretense,


    so certain actions between them would be inappropriate.

    However, Cindy, who was bashful in nature, was shy to remind him although she knew that it wasn’t


    right.


    Presently, Ian moved and stepped out of the room. “Let’s go and eat.”


    While Cindy was following him from behind with her lips pursed, she was actually thinking about Ian’s


    exnation earlier. Turns out that Ian was chatting with Sean. I wondered why the two men chose to


    talk about those in the middle of the night, though. Instead of having a chat like that during the day,


    they furtively texted each other at night and caused me to think that Ian might be keeping in touch with


    Yulia in private.


    Come to think of it, from the way he exined the situation to me earlier, did he think that I felt jealous?


    Cindy felt frustrated at herself at the thought. Although I indeed felt a little ufortable when I


    suspected his rtionship with Yulia, I wouldn’t consider it as being jealous.


    On the other hand, Aurora, who had finished preparing their meal, was going to ask them toe over


    to eat when she saw the two of them. “Come here! I’ve just finished preparing a meal and the two of


    you are here. Let’s dig in.” She smiled and waved at them as she spoke, then turned to Cindy. “Are you


    alright? Do you feel better now?”


    Ian turned to look at Cindy and responded on her behalf, “She should be fine now since I’ve talked


    things out with her.”


    Aurora cast him a re from one side. “I knew it was you who provoked her. I reckoned that a girl with


    a temper as gentle as Cindy’s would never reveal that kind of an expression if it weren’t because of


    your fault.”


    Ian nodded. “Yes, yes, yes. It was my fault. I promise to exin everything clearly to prevent any future


    misunderstandings.”


    Argh! I can’t bear to continue listening to their nonsense. What kind of an expression did I reveal this


    morning? And what did he mean by preventing future misunderstandings? However, Cindy couldn’t find


    any words to refute their statements at all. So, she turned on her heels and took a seat at the dining


    table.


    Upon seeing that, Aurora raised her hand and tapped on Ian’s shoulder twice. “You’d better behave


    yourself after this. Do you think that she is on her own? No, she and I are a team. You have to go


    through me before you even think about bullying her.”


    Ian sat down next to her and responded, “Sometimes, I wonder if you are my biological mother. When I


    see the old man again, I have to ask him what happened with you two back then.”


    Aurora snorted. “You should also ask him if he is sure that the youngest son of his is really his. That


    little brat seems to not inherit his cunning character at all—getting himself involved in the mess now is


    no different from having a death wish.”


    At the mention of Simon, Cindy recalled about the incident in which Leah purposely called Ian to give


    him a scolding. Hence, she suddenly chimed in from the side, “Perhaps Simon really isn’t his son.”


    Aurora turned to look at Cindy. Feeling satisfied with her performance, she grabbed thetter’s arm.


    “Cindy, you know me the best. To be honest, I hope that the brat isn’t the old man’s son; I wonder what


    will be his reaction when he finds out. After toying around with women outside for so many years, he


    was tricked by one of them. I can’t wait to see that happen,” Auroramented in a wicked tone. Upon


    seeing her reaction, an initially enraged Cindy was unable to resist herughter.


    Ian raised his eyes and cast a nce at Cindy. When he had just entered the house earlier, she


    seemed ill and had a dark expression. However, she was currently smiling with a blush on her cheeks,


    which made her look very much better than before.


    Hence, he couldn’t help but to specte that Cindy’s illness earlier might have something to do with the


    misunderstanding that she had, whereby she thought that the person he had been in contact with


    yesterday was Yulia.


    Upon having such thoughts, Ian felt ted and was unable to hold back the feeling of satisfaction that


    bubbled up inside him.


    The three of them then chatted over the meal. After the meal, Aurora took out her phone in an attempt


    to check the news online.


    Nevertheless, the moment she logged in to the website, she suddenly yelped after barely scanning


    through it.


    Cindy immediately looked at her. “What’s the matter? What happened again?”


    Aurora handed the phone to her for her to check it out. “Look at this—the media reported that Ian went


    to the hospital to visit the old man and they had a nice chat.”
