Chapter 2031 Two Halves
Earlier, Cindy thought of her father. Even though our family doesn''t have a tradition of hosting
engagement parties, Dad would probablye to join us if he was alive, right? He might be a coward,
but he would still try his best to fulfill his daughter''s wishes.
Although Cindy didn''t talk about it, she still felt rather dejected that not a single person from her family
would be attending the engagement. She knew it would be one of her regrets in the future.
Upon hearing what Cindy said, Ian rolled over before giving her a gentle pat on the shoulder. Both of
them may have simr experiences, but they hadpletely different feelings about it. Ian had never
been good atforting others, so he didn''t know what to say at that moment. Cindy knew what Ian
was thinking about, so she put a smile on her face. "Don''t worry, I''m fine. I just happened to think about
this matter." She turned to look at Ian. "I wonder if Miss Zimmerman will ever dream of your dad. I''m
curious to know what she would do if she did."
Ian frowned and thought about her words. "She would probably give him a huge scolding. He passed
away before she got what she wanted, after all. She might use her dreams as a means of expressing
her anger since she can''t do it to him in real life."
Ian spoke in a rather yful tone, and Cindy burst intoughter after hearing what he said. "I guess
that does make sense. It feels like something that she would do."
He wrapped his arms around her waist as he felt himself getting sleepier and sleepier. He edged closer
to her and shut his eyes as he spoke. "Some people justck kindness and empathy, you know?
People like them will live their lives thinking that it''s always someone else''s fault."
"I guess so." Cindy nodded. They were quiet for a while, and Ian fell asleep soon after that. Since
Cindy couldn''t sleep anymore, she waited for him to enter a deep sleep before she carefully slipped out
of his arms. Then, she sat in the hall outside and scrolled through some entertainment news on her
phone. She recalled something all of a sudden, and she decided to search for Yulia''s name.
Most of her news was old news—there hadn''t been any recent rumors about her. After that, Cindy went
to stalk Yulia''s social media ount, but it seemed like Yulia had blocked others from leaving
seeing that there weren''t any odd-looking rumors or articles. Maybe it''s just like what Ian said. Yulia
might have gone to visit him because she wanted him to put in a good word to save her reputation.
Cindy scratched the back of her head as she thought, Why am I contradicting myself? A part of me is
telling me to stop thinking about this, yet I can''t help but look for news articles rted to Yulia. I feel like
there are two halves of me. In the end, Cindy lowered her phone and hugged her knees as she looked
out the window.
Humans will never be satisfied, she thought. All I wanted was money in the past. Now, Ian and I have
more than enough to livefortably, but I''m starting to feel greedy toward other things. Nothing''s ever
enough, huh? Cindy sat around for a while more before she left her room to visit Aurora''s
Aurora wasn''t asleep either—she was sitting by the ss window and looking out at the view. When
Cindy knocked on her door, Aurora walked over to open it for her. "Is Ian asleep?" Aurora didn''t seem

surprised to see Cindy.
Cindy nodded. "Why didn''t you take a nap?"
Aurora scoffed. "I can''t sleep with this uneasy feeling in my chest," she uttered after shutting the door.
Both of them knew the reason for her uneasiness.
Cindy went over to sit on the couch. "You''ll feel better in a few days. It must feel really bad to know
about all of this. I might not like that guy at all, but I do feel angry on behalf of you after finding out.
Well, on the bright side, we''re lucky that this guy didn''t continue clinging onto you. If you gave in and
got together with him, you''d be sending yourself into a pit of fire."
