The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 1417

Heaving a sigh, Cindy picked up speed. She chose to cook some simple dishes, so she was all finished within an hour. After serving the meal on the table, she called out to the men. “It’s time for dinner!”

The driver stood up first. “I could smell the aroma since long ago. I’m practically drooling by now!”

In the meantime, Cindy took off her apron before washing her hands, whereas Ian waited for her at his spot after casting her a glance. It wasn’t until she came back that they went to the dining table together.

They had to admit that Cindy was indeed a good cook, for the food she prepared was much better than the takeaways. Slowly, she drank the soup she boiled, which was warming and made her stomach feel better. She began eating after that, and she wasn’t in a hurry at all as she ate. In this aspect, she was different from Sophia.

Upon being reminded of Sophia, Ian also recalled that Sophia had a cheerful disposition, and that she rarely kept silent even when she ate. She would keep on talking while waving her hands around, sometimes even crossing her legs on the chair. In contrast, Cindy would sit quietly by the table. Taking a deep breath, Ian wondered what he was doing by comparing the two women, so he quickly averted his gaze.

On the other hand, the driver was delighted, all the while complimenting how tasty the food was. Later on, he asked if she had a boyfriend out of sheer curiosity, to which she replied with a smile, “No, I don’t have one.”

Heaving a sigh, the driver lamented, “Why would a pretty woman like you not have a boyfriend? Are you being too picky?”

Cindy chortled while reaching out for one of the dishes. “I’m not being picky, but I’m not really interested in finding a boyfriend at the moment. Since I just graduated, I figured I should make sure that I have a stable job and a secure source of income before I consider dating. Isn’t this the norm?”

Nodding, the driver went on to say, “That’s true, but I’m pretty certain that we are quite secure while working alongside Mr. Morgan, so you don’t have to worry about that. You’ll have to find a boyfriend one way or another, or else it will be a waste of your youth.”
