Chapter 1918


    Chapter 1918 Yulia at the Neighborhood


    Ian could see she was teasing him, so he yed along and huddled closer. He pretended to take a


    whiff of her scent, but he was actually kissing her.


    Cindy felt ticklish, and she evaded him. “Alright, stop fooling around. What did Hannah say?”


    Ian kissed her neck anyway before he retreated. Then he leaned against the sofa, lookingnguid.


    Hannah hadn’t said much to him. She had heard about the news, and when he went to see her,


    Hannah looked solemn.


    She had asked Ian about his interactions with Yulia and what the director told him. Ian told her the


    truth, and he could see that Hannah was upset. He didn’t say anything bad about Yulia, nor did he


    bring up his rtionship with Cindy. He just said he didn’t have any feelings for Yulia.


    Hannah wanted him to steer clear of Yulia as well. Even though Cindy was his fake girlfriend, or at least


    that was what Hannah thought, they had still gone public, and it was important to note that Yulia had


    some entanglement with him prior to that.


    If he did get together with Yulia, the public would boycott him, since they would think that Yulia was a


    mistress who usurped Ian’s girlfriend’s ce. They would think Ian was a two-timer who dumped his


    long-time girlfriend for Yulia, who could help his career and had connections. It was easy for someone’s


    reputation to be ruined, but it was hard for it to be salvaged. They had to spend a lot of time, effort, and


    money on it. After what happened to Ian, thepany had to be careful and avoid any pitfalls that Ian


    might step on. He had to steer clear of Yulia for that.


    Cindy leaned against his chest. “If thepany says so, then that’s settled.”

    Ian was a popr celebrity, so hispany wouldn’t abandon him. He wasn’t even in the wrong in this


    scandal, so thepany would protect him. Yulia was just an individual no matter how powerful she


    was. Even if she had herwork, it wasn’t enough to go against a wholepany. They had a bigger


    Cindy felt sleepy a whileter perhaps because of the wine she had. As she had nothing to do, she


    wobbled back to the room and went to bed.


    Ian wasn’t sleepy though. After Cindy had fallen asleep, he looked at his phone and went to change


    before going out. A car was parked outside the neighborhood, and Ian bent down to knock on the


    window. Someone rolled it down, and Ian saw a familiar face in the car.


    Yulia said, “Let’s find somewhere we can talk.”


    Ian didn’t move. “This ce is as good as any. Cindy’s asleep. I don’t want to leave her alone.”


    Yulia sighed. “Must you do this?”


    Ian stood up and took two steps back to keep some distance between him and the car. “Must you do


    this, then?”


    Yulia pursed her lips angrily. She never thought Ian still wouldn’t cave in even after all she did. She


    didn’t tell the directors to put any pressure on Ian during the gathering, but they were her friends and


    they wanted to stand up for her, so they had tried to convince Ian to give in. She didn’t expect that at


    all.


    She never wanted to take things to the extreme. Ian was in the entertainment industry, so even if he


    had gone public with his rtionship, he still had to remain unmarried for as long as possible for the


    sake of his career.
