A faint sense of gratification manifested on Sophia’s face. “That’s good. Frankly speaking, I don’t quite fancy seeing her even though she did me a favor.” After saying that, she laughed maniacally again and declared self-deprecatingly, “I’ve always been such a dastardly person.”
Plopping down on the bed, John flipped over and hugged her tightly. “I love how you treat others dastardly.” After he’d said that, he then asked, “Do you know that Ian’s show is over?”
“I know. I watched a bit of it,” Sophia replied. “But I then fell asleep without watching until the very end.” At this, she gave an embarrassed chuckle. I’m simply a fake fan. In the past, I boasted of my support for him, but I ended up failing to watch even a single show of his to the end.
John leaned over and pecked her on the corner of her mouth. “He’ll probably be returning in a few days. He has signed with a company, and his upcoming schedule is rather packed, so he’ll probably come back before that to meet up with you guys.”
Sophia looked up at him. “How do you know all this?”
How do I know all this? John didn’t quite know how to answer her, because he’d also invested in the show Lorraine invested in, making him one of the bankrollers behind the scenes. A bankroller had the absolute right to dictate parameters, so it was convenient for him to play underhanded tricks behind closed doors.
It was him who proposed the closed-door training and confiscation of cell phones, forbidding any contact with the outside world. He even furtively pressured the crew to have them suggest that Ian refrain from divulging too much of his love life on the show. Back then, he was extremely disgruntled that Ian had confessed his love for Sophia twice on the show, so he cut off all communication between them.
Sophia nodded. “That’s for sure.”
Nevertheless, it didn’t bother them, and they both headed to Lola’s gym hand in hand. Although it was afternoon, there were still some people in the gym. There weren’t many people, but it wasn’t particularly deserted.
Sophia went in and peered around, but she didn’t see Lola. Thus, John went over to a coach and inquired about Lola’s whereabouts. The coach then lifted a hand and pointed in a direction. “There’s an office there when you take a right turn.”

So what happens to Ian and Cindy. Is she/ or does she get pregnant? Do they go back to the city and Ian works with Logan? Does Aurora stay in the entertainment industry or return with Ian? Terrible ending, who cares if Aurora was drinking/drunk with colleagues. What happened with Ian and Cindy?!...
Get rid of Gary. Apparently Cindy is too dumb to figure out his motives 😡...
Why are you trying to break them up when they just got together and are a loving couple. Let them stay close and move back to their true friends, Logan, Lola, John and Sophia!...
Sure hope Ian pulls his head out of his behind and works this out with Cindy. His brother needs him at the company and neither one of them truly like the celebrity life. Sophia and Lola will love her …....
I can’t wait for John to take down the Bailey’s including Isabelle so he, Sophia, William and Matilda can live in peace. Introduce Yolanda to Richard so they are out of the picture....
Ugh, don’t break up Sophia and John… they belong together and Sophia is just stubborn for no reason...
Sophia lives John, he just needs to tell her he loves her and get on with their life and family. Too much interference from others....
Sophia is so stupid....
John needs to man up, tell his mother and Isabelle to take a flying leap and confess to Sophia that he made a horrible mistake in divorcing her. This story is taking too long and once again, the bitches are looking like they are on the right side. Awful...
