Naomi really meant it when she said she had been paying attention to the few people who had provoked Cindy and Ian before. Now, Naomi was their number one hater. She said that Sena and Yulia were being dragged across mud whenever they posted something on their social media. It seemed that Yulia recently shot a magazine cover photo for a top celebrity, but even though her standards had always been high, people were boycotting her harder this time.
Even the top celebrity was implicated and many people boycotted the magazine. Moreover, fans of big-name celebrities had come forward and asked them to stay away from Yulia because it was uncertain when Yulia would use them to stir things up. Fans had always been irrational and they were eager to protect their favorite celebrities. Therefore, Yulia’s reputation had actually not recovered significantly and she was still severely criticized.
When Naomi talked to Cindy about these things, even if she couldn’t hear Naomi’s voice, she could still feel Naomi’s joy. If it was in the past, Cindy might think it was unnecessary, but it had also affected her because Yulia was not only interested in Ian. So, Cindy replied to Naomi and told her that Yulia deserved it.
As Cindy had always been good-natured and rarely spoke to others like this, Naomi immediately noticed something was wrong and directly called her.
Cindy held the phone, and after thinking about it, she rose from her seat. “You guys carry on. I'll go out and answer this call.”
She originally thought that she would just turn around to leave, but she didn't expect Ian to suddenly turn to look at her with a serious expression. “Who is calling?”
An amused Cindy responded, “It's Naomi. I need to talk a few words with her in private.”
Ian was relieved after hearing this. “Okay, go ahead. Don’t talk for too long as the dishes will be cold in a while, though.”
Cindy patted Ian on the shoulder. “Okay, got it.”
When she turned to close the private room door with her phone in her hand, she saw Gary looking in her direction. Gary's expression was slightly serious, but not particularly so. It was similar to the expression she saw earlier and it was somewhat strange as it caused her heart to stutter for a moment. Closing the door, she blinked before taking a deep breath and headed toward the corridor.
There, Cindy answered Naomi's phone, and as soon as she answered, she heard Naomi shouting, “What's going on? What's going on? What happened to you and Yulia? Cindy, you were not like this before. Is there any conflict between you two?”
Cindy smiled. “Am I someone who does whatever she wants? Considering Yulia's identity, how could I dare to get into conflict with her?”
“So what if she has such a powerful identity? I'll still drag her across the mud on the Internet.” Naomi spoke so confidently that Cindy couldn't help laughing out loud.
With some arrogance, Naomi even added, “I am now actively spreading hate about her every day. I just want to scold her! How dare she pretend and think that she can clear her name so quickly! I must remind her and everyone else every day about the dirty things she has done!”
Cindy curled her lips. “When you come next time, I must treat you to a big meal and I must kiss you.”
Naomi snorted. “Seriously, I didn't think much about the entertainment industry before, and I’m not a fan of any celebrity anyway, but now I feel that the people there are really hypocrites.” Without waiting for Cindy to ask, she added, “I'm among the fans now, and I’m Yulia’s top hater. I’m going to wait for her to fall from her pedestal.”
In fact, Yulia had fallen a bit from her pedestal now. After the scandal with Ian was exposed, her situation suddenly became awkward because of Cindy's clarification. The entertainment industry had always been this way—toadying to the popular ones and trampling those who were not. During the period when Yulia's reputation was falling, many people came forward to expose her dirty deeds.

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...
