In some ways, Cindy was feeling sorry for her own bank account.
It was time for lunch by the time they got to the hotel, so Logan asked if they wanted to have a meal or if they wanted to rest first. While they were on the way to the hotel, Cindy realized that Aurora seemed rather pale. "I'm tired. I want to nap." Cindy took the opportunity to speak for Aurora.
Ian stroked the back of Cindy's head. "You slept on the way here. Are you still tired?"
She nodded. "I didn't sleep well, so I feel really weak now."
"Okay. You guys can get some sleep, and we'll meet up for dinner later. I'll go home to check on my wife, and I'll call you guys later," Logan suggested.
Upon agreeing to the plan, Logan left them at the entrance of the hotel before driving off. Logan had requested neighboring rooms. Once Cindy and Ian got to their room, they turned to see Aurora stepping into the room next door. As she walked in, she didn't seem to be in a really bad state, but she didn't seem to be doing really well either. Cindy let out a sigh as she followed Ian into their room.
Logan had prepared a spacious suite for them. There was a wardrobe in the room, and Cindy opened it to find two dresses and two suits inside. These are probably the outfits that Logan prepared for us.
Ian walked over and hugged Cindy from the back after he kept the luggage away. "He even got us two sets," Ian muttered as he stared at the outfits in the wardrobe. "There was no need for that. One set would've been enough. He's so extra."
Cindy agreed—it wasn't as if they were hosting a proper wedding. Cindy had always preferred things to be simple, but she was naturally thankful for all that Logan had done for them. "Do you want to try it on?" Ian held her dress up to take a look at it.
She sighed as she wasn't in the mood for that. "Let's rest and shower before trying them on. I'd like to lie down for a while."
Ian nodded and placed the outfits back into the wardrobe before leading Cindy into their room, his arms still around her waist. Their room had a king-sized bed with banners hanging on the wall and petals scattered all over their bed as decoration.
Cindy felt bad lying on the bed when she saw how much effort had been put into decorating it. This really feels like a wedding more than an engagement. Ian, on the other hand, didn't seem too troubled by the decorations. He pulled his pajamas out of his luggage and changed into them before clearing the petals off the bed and lying down.
Ian hadn't gotten any rest on the way here, so he was pretty exhausted. Cindy climbed into bed as well after changing her clothes. She knew she wasn't going to fall asleep, so she turned to ask Ian a question. "Did you tell Sean about this?"
Ian nodded. "I did. I texted him when I was in the car. He's probably busy now; he would've seen my text otherwise."
"I wonder how things are with Miss Zimmerman," Cindy mumbled.
Ian didn't know much about this matter either, as he hadn't followed up on it. However, based on his knowledge of Leah, she was probably going to stay in the hospital for a long while. Leah was so terrified of death, she would send herself to the hospital even if she just felt slightly feverish. Whenever she felt a little unwell, she would stay in the hospital to get herself treated.
Since she had broken her leg this time, she would certainly request an extended stay in the hospital. Furthermore, it would be tough for her to travel around with a leg injury, and she probably knew that Simon wasn't going to look after her. After considering all these factors, it was likely for her to choose to stay in the hospital.
"Have you dreamt about your dad recently?" Cindy turned back to face the ceiling.
Ian was stunned to hear her question. He had been about to fall asleep, but his eyes shot wide open after hearing her question. He mimicked her movements to turn and face the ceiling as he answered her question. "No. I used to dream about them while I was living away from them, but I've never dreamt about him ever since he passed away."
Cindy pressed her lips together before talking about her past. "I used to dream about my dad all the time when he first passed away. I would dream about all sorts of horrible scenes, and I would feel extremely sad whenever I woke up from them."

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...
