Chapter 1410
Before Ian left for his room, he told Cindy, “There are new towels and toothbrushes in the washroom.”
There was a moment’s pause before Cindy replied, “Okay.” After he left, she went into the washroom to
wash up using the utensils she found. However, she didn’t bring her pajamas with her, so she could
only sleep in the clothes she was wearing.
Cindy could sleep practically anywhere, so the only downside to the arrangement was that her clothes
were too thick and heavy for her to feelfortable. Nheless, she still fell asleep with rtive
ease.
If Cindy were her previous self, she might have a hard time falling asleep due to all the stress after the
scandal regarding Ian and her broke out. Now, she couldn’t bring herself to care anymore, probably
because she didn’t think things could get any worse. Anything would be fine as long as nobody died,
and in case anything happened, she had two hundred thousand in her bank ount.
While Cindy was sound asleep on the sofa, Ian had a hard time doing the same while in his own bed.
He went through the news online to see that everything was going ording to Hannah’s n, which
meant that scandals pertaining to both Sena and his ex were basically settled.
Instead of feeling relieved, he was feeling suffocated as if his airway was blocked. After tossing and
turning for a long while, he got out of his bed and entered the living room. Cindy was already fast
asleep, curling under the nkets into a tiny ball. The curtains in the living room weren’t drawn, and the
light shining in through the windows provided ample lighting for him to take a good look at her figure.
Ian walked up to the sofanguidly before lowering his head to examine her. Without any makeup on
her face, he could see her face was clean even in the dark of night. When Hannah assigned Cindy to
him, she told him Cindy might be one of the few people who wouldn’t be charmed by his looks.
Despite having heard that, Ian didn’t really register it in his mind as he didn’t care much about things
like that. However, he realized Hannah might be right after watching Cindy closely. Cindy was indeed
impartial to his looks. Instead of feeling defeated, Ian was actually relieved, as he preferred to maintain
a professional rtionship with his colleagues, so he needed someone who wouldn’t mix their personal
feelings into matters.
Without warning, Cindy rolled over while talking in her sleep. “Money…”
Startled, Ian took a step back in reflex before stopping himself. With a frown, he thought, Money is all
she cared to say… I wonder what she is dreaming of to have even said that out loud.
By the next morning, Cindy woke up early. It was already a habit of hers to wake up earlier than Ian
and buy him breakfast. After a quick wash up, she tied her hair into a ponytail before turning to check
Ian’s room. As the door was closed, she figured he was still asleep. She hesitated for a moment before
deciding against waking him up, going downstairs alone instead. When she left, she made sure to put
on a mask despite knowing that it wouldn’t conceal much, but she figured it was better than not having
anything to cover her face at all.
To Cindy’s surprise, the area was quiet in the morning, and there were no paparazzis who swarmed in
on her. She bought breakfast somewhere near the house before rushing back. When she got back in,
Ian was already up and walking out from his room. The front of his pajamas was unbuttoned, so Cindy
could see his bare chest as soon as sheid eyes on him.
Oh, wow… Although he looks thin, he is actually quite muscr. His pectoral muscles look sturdy.
Cindy quickly averted her gaze after a while. “I bought breakfast, soe eat after you’re done

washing up.”
Ian was also slightly taken aback, for he seemed to have forgotten that there was another person in his
house. With a grunt, he covered himself up. To be honest, Cindy might be able to keep a straight face if
he hadn’t done that, but the fact that he did it made her blush.
