The two of them stood like that for a while before Ian’s actions became suggestive. He released Cindy from his embrace, then turned her around by her shoulders so that they were facing each other before he lowered his head to kiss her.
Cindy didn’t dodge him. She had her back to the musical fountain and could imagine from the music that the pillars of water had risen to a great height. There were sounds of children’s laughter beside them and she wanted to do something romantic with background music like that. She hugged his waist and tiptoed to respond to his kisses.
The two didn’t bother about what other people would think. At that moment in time, they just wanted to follow their own hearts in that particular place and atmosphere.
After kissing for a while, Ian finally released Cindy. Then, the two gazed at each other for a while before they broke into a smile.
The musical fountain show only went on for an hour and the waterworks ceased after that. Then, the crowd in the park started to dissipate.
Cindy held hands with Ian as they walked back. After walking for some time, her phone rang. She fished out her phone to see that it was a call from Naomi.
Cindy picked up the call and greeted with a smiling tone, “Hey, gorgeous.”
Naomi chuckled, her voice helpless as she responded, “Man, I don’t know whether I should be happy or angry for you when I saw the news about you.”
Cindy froze. “News about me?”
Then, she remembered that she had visited the crew earlier today and the photographer had taken some photos for them. So, she asked right out, “Is it about me visiting Ian at work?”
Naomi sighed. “There’s that.”
‘There’s that’ meant that there was another story, which Cindy found a little comical. “What else do you have?”
Naomi exhaled and said, “Ian is really popular these days, isn’t he? He’s trending right now with lots of articles on different issues. I’ll have to slowly go through them with you, but do you have time for that? We’ll talk about them one by one.”
There was multiple news of Cindy and Ian trending. The first was naturally Cindy’s visit to Ian’s workplace. It was obviously posted by the crew since there were also proper photos of them. The text was also prim and proper, talking about how close the couple was to each other.
The next news was leaked by a fan, who posted her photo with Ian. She mentioned that Ian and Cindy were extremely friendly people. Of course this was uploaded by the girl who worked as an extra for Ian’s sake.
The girl was a little playful with her tone; she claimed that she wasn’t in a good condition today and didn’t want to post the photos at first. Then, she couldn’t help but notice how handsome Ian was, and she decided she wouldn’t waste her first photos taken with him.
She also talked about giving Ian the doll and mentioned how nice he was to his fans because he had brought the doll back and even posted on Facebook to thank her. Such a gesture from him had touched her a lot.
Last but not least, she stressed a lot on Cindy. Her main point in the entire post was to praise Cindy. She said that Cindy understood how she became an extra just to see Ian, so Cindy had taken Ian over to see her. She added that Cindy was nice enough to allow her to give Ian a hug and even took the photos for them, which indicated that Cindy was especially nice and gentle throughout the entire process.
The girl concluded that she finally understood why Ian would fall in love with Cindy. She said that if she were a man, she would fall for Cindy as well.
The third news was the matter that the executive director brought up when they were having their dinner at the food stall.
The group had one too many drinks and were talking at the top of their lungs, which meant that their conversational topics were heard by those around them.
Then, someone said that Yulia really liked Ian and wanted to get him at all costs. They even leaked that she wanted to work with some directors and filmmakers to inconvenience Ian and create an opportunity for him to get close to him.
From the contents that the person had leaked, there were quite a number of details that weren’t mentioned when Cindy and Ian were eavesdropping at the food stall. The leaker even uploaded a voice recording and the person speaking was none other than the executive director just now.

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...
