Chapter 1440 Learning to Bake
Cindy was much more relaxed since Ian’s workload had been reduced for the month. After watching TV for a while, Cindy’s phone began to ring. She took a glance at the screen before picking it up. “What is it?”
Hazel’s voice came from the other end of the line. “Are you busy now, Cindy?” Hazel asked before letting out an awkward chuckle.
“No. What is it?” Cindy’s response was rather cold. Hazel let out another laugh before she got to her point. “Well, it’s about your brother. The school just offered to put them into teams and organize a charity performance for them. This is a much better opportunity than just learning theories in school, but we might need some money for the expenses since these performances don’t pay much…”
There was no need for Hazel to continue. The reason she called was always the same—she just wanted money from Cindy. “How much?” Cindy asked.
“How much… I don’t have an exact number. You can give us more if you have the money to spare. I know things aren’t easy for you either, so you can just give us an amount that you’re comfortable with,” Hazel uttered after giving it some thought.
I can’t believe my mother understands that things aren’t easy for me. How rare! “I only have a total of 2,000 left with me. Will that be enough?” Cindy was testing her mother on purpose.
Hazel seemed to hesitate on the other end of the line. She had probably guessed that Cindy wouldn’t have a lot of money to spare. Eventually, Hazel let out a long sigh. “2,000 is fine, I guess. Just send the money home.”
Wow. She didn’t even ask me to keep some for myself. Cindy hummed in acknowledgement before ending the call. Right after that, Cindy transferred the money to her mother before she glanced at the leftover sum in her bank account. She had more money in the past, but it had lessened since she had used them to clear all her debts. However, the remaining amount was still enough to last her for a long while.
While Cindy put her phone aside, she recalled Keith telling her that Hazel actually had money in her bank account. Hazel would certainly be able to pay for whatever Keith needed, even if Cindy only transferred 2,000 to Hazel.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Returning EX (John and Sophia)
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...
