Chapter 1424


    Cindy did this every single time, informing Ian of all the possible problems so that he could brace


    himself.


    Ian murmured in acknowledgment. “It’s okay. I’m not easily offended. If I’m truly admonished, you don’t


    need to say anything at the side. You don’t have to go over and apologize to them, for some people


    merely want to put on airs.”


    Surprise gripped Cindy. After all, when she talked to him about all this in the past, he mostly listened


    and seldom responded, even wearing a slightly impatient look on his face sometimes. Today, however,


    he picked up where she left off and even consoled her instead. This was an unprecedented situation


    that had never happened before. She nodded. “Okay, got it.”


    After lunch, Ian went to take a shower. Sitting in the living room, Cindy felt slightly ill at ease. This


    house had a bedroom and a living room, so even while she was watching television here, she could still


    hear the sound of running water from the bathroom. Although she tried her best to corral herself,


    images uncontrobly shed across her mind. This is just a torture!


    The driver reclined at the side with his eyes closed now that he’d filled his stomach, not at all bothered


    about everything else happening around him.


    Having no other recourse, she got up and went to the balcony. The weather outside was very good.


    She then took out her cell phone and surfed the inte, only to discover that her photos with Ian were


    already posted, ones that were taken when they left in the morning. This time, many people gave their


    blessings, while those who disdained her and mocked Ian had diminished significantly. A little over 20


    minutester, she heard the door of the bathroom open.


    Ian was actually fully dressed when he came out. He knew that he couldn’t be too casual since there


    was now a woman in the house.


    Upon seeing that there was still some time to spare, Cindy returned to the sofa and leaned back to rest


    for a while.


    After getting ready in the room, Ian came out. As he stood by the door, he looked up and instantly saw

    Cindy with her eyes closed. She must be really tired to fall asleep while sitting on the sofa. I might not


    have it easy, but it’s actually even more exhausting for her. He tarried for a while before going over and


    waking the driver first. “We should make a move.”


    At the side, Cindy’s eyes abruptly snapped open, her gaze still dazed with grogginess. “We’re leaving?


    Oh yes, it’s time!” Springing to her feet, she smoothed her hair before walking over and gathering


    everything Ian had to bring.


    The three of them left together. Cindy was probably still half-asleep as she stood in the elevator.


    Leaning against the elevator wall, she yawned several times.


    Ian didn’t look at her, merely reaching out and taking the cosmetic box from her hand. “I’ll carry it


    myself.”


    This action had Cindy snapping to attention. “No, no, I can manage,” she hastily insisted. After all, the


    cosmetic box was actually quite heavy.


    Ian said nothing, yet he didn’t release his hold on it either. “Never mind, it’s just a few steps.”


    Cindy stared at him. In the end, she pursed her lips and stood at the side with her hands hanging by


    her sides. The driver’s gaze shifted between them, an amused expression on his face. Cindy knew


    what he was thinking, so she strove to maintain a solemn expression in order to keep her


    embarrassment from him.


    She then sat in the back seat with Ian. “You can nap for a while,” Ian suggested.


    Cindy was already wide awake at this time. “No, I’m fine. I’m feeling better after dozing for a bit earlier.”


    Ian didn’t say anything further though he scrutinized her out of the corner of his eye. For the first time,


    he felt that she was stretching herself too thin. He’d never had an assistant, nor had he noticed how


    other people’s assistants were, but Hannah had onceuded Cindy before him. She said that it was her


    first time seeing a newbie who was sopetent in handling the position of an assistant. The


    assistants she arranged for other artists in the past all made various blunders, so she was truly


    surprised by Cindy.


    Retracting his gaze, he turned and gazed out the window. Could she possibly be bad at her work when


    she stretches herself so thin? But she’s probably very tired.


    The car drove all the way to the photo shoot location provided by the magazine publisher. When they


    alighted from the car, Cindy went over to take the cosmetic box, but Ian was a step ahead of her,


    carrying it himself.
