She wasn't dissing Naomi or anything. However, the point was that Naomi was still single.
Naomi only called Cindy back after Cindy got home from work. She lied to her mentor and said she drew the drafts herself, and she wanted some feedback. Naomi's mentor was probably not as talented as Serena, since she didn't even point out any flaws. She even praised Naomi for the progress Naomi made and said she felt glad because of that.
Cindy wasn't happy about the praise at all. She didn't think her drafts were great, and she knew there must be a lot of flaws in them. She was just starting to wade into the professional world, so she couldn't believe she could reach perfection in such a short time.
Not every designer was as great as Serena. She could imagine how Serena could point out all the flaws in the draft if she gave it to her. I'm lucky to be learning from her.
Naomi felt embarrassed as well, and she sounded apologetic. "Honestly, I thought my mentor was talented, but now I think I might have overestimated her. I asked her if there was any problem with the draft, and she looked at it for hours only to say it's perfect."
Can't do anything about that. Cindy smiled. "I'll ask my mentor about it once she comes back."
Naomi was slightly envious. "You can improve really quickly if you have a mentor who knows what she's doing. I'm envious, girl. My mentor is just..."
Cindy sighed. "I'll tell you about the tips my mentor gave me after I ask her about it. We'll improve together."
Naomie smiled. "Okay. Don't forget about me when you're successful. I'm just waiting for you to carry me."
They joked around, then Naomi asked how Cindy handled the trending topics that were related to Ian. Naomi said she checked the news about the girl and about the kiss between Cindy and Ian and found that they weren't on the list of trending topics anymore. What was left was the set's promo poster and the case with Yulia.
Cindy wasn't too sure either. "His company probably pulled something and got that search to stop trending. The things you said could be left off trending, but the promotion for the drama and the case with Yulia can't be dealt with, so they're left up there."
Naomi clicked her tongue. "I went to curse Yulia, but wow, everyone in the comment section took the words right out of my mouth. I was a step too late to the battlefield."
Cindy knew that would happen. After all, the proof was concrete. The whistleblower was an executive director, so even though he had a grudge against Yulia, people still believed him. He was in the industry after all, so his sources were probably legitimate. Well, that's Yulia's problem. Ian's not that badly affected.
Cindy looked at the time. "It's getting late. I have to make dinner. Talk to you later."
She hung up and called Aurora to ask her if she wanted to have dinner together.
Aurora had been waiting for the call. When Aurora picked up the phone, she smiled. "I was just thinking if you were home already. You would have called me if you were."
Cindy smiled. "Come over. I'm making dinner right now."
"Sure," Aurora answered, then she hung up. Cindy wasn't done yet when Aurora came, so Aurora went to help with dinner.

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...
