The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 2051

Chapter 2051 Someone I Knew in the Past

After they ordered their food, the waiter left with the menu. Before leaving, she asked, "I wish you all good luck on your journey."

Ian smiled at her and said his thanks.

When the waiter left and closed the room door, Aurora finally let out a sigh. "Sometimes, it's so inconvenient to come out with you."

Ian also felt resigned. "I think so too, but at the moment, there's no other way."

As long as he was still popular, situations like this would always happen.

If he lost his popularity, this kind of situation might be reduced, but it would have an impact on other aspects.

Since there were pros and cons, Ian could only think in a positive direction. "At least it proves that I'm still popular, so I don't need to worry about my next job."

Aurora leaned against the chair and said, "Since your father left so much money for you, there's actually no need for you to continue doing this."

On the sidelines, Cindy raised her brows as she didn't expect Aurora to think like this.

Aurora always wanted to return to the entertainment industry, so Cindy thought that she would love a life under the spotlight and hope that Ian would live the same life too.

At the very least, the older woman could benefit from some of Ian's popularity.

However, she was unexpectedly open with the idea of leaving the industry behind.

"If that's the case, we'll have to wait until my contract expires. At the moment, there's no other way." He smiled before turning toward Cindy. "You just have to wait a little longer."

Cindy couldn't tell what was the intention behind his words, so she could only answer, "I'm fine with it. You can make the decision yourself."

Not long after, the food was served and it was obvious that Ian was hungry. He only drank during the engagement party and didn't have much to eat, so his stomach was definitely empty.

As for Cindy, she wasn't quite hungry and there was a troublesome aspect about eating seafood, which were the shells, so she sat aside and helped Ian with removing the shells.

Meanwhile, Aurora glanced at her and said to Ian, "Why are you such a lucky guy?"

Of course, he knew what she was talking about, so he laughed loudly. "I also keep wondering the same thing."

Aurora's phone rang again during the meal.

She took a look at her phone, only to put it back on the table.

Since she didn't answer the call, it meant that it was from that man again.

Even though Cindy said nothing, Ian could feel that something was wrong and he asked, "What's the problem? Who was it that called you? Why didn't you answer the call?"

However, Aurora didn't explain too much to him. "It's someone I knew in the past. He is probably drunk at the moment because he kept on mumbling to me."

Ian stared at her for a while before withdrawing his gaze.

She doesn't have any friends. If it is someone she knew in the past, it is probably a man who lived with her before.

At this point, Aurora didn't want to say anything, and Ian stopped asking as he didn't wish to know about her past.

Meanwhile, a hint of disgust began to fill Cindy's face when her eyes landed on Aurora's phone on the table.

Maybe it was because she had a clear-cut stand on what to hate or love, so she still felt angry after knowing about this matter today.

After Ian was almost done eating, he wiped his hands and began removing the shells for Cindy.

The two of them went back and forth with each other.

On the other hand, Aurora was full, so she lay back on the chair and looked at the sweet couple.

Cindy didn't feel embarrassed at all as she opened her mouth to allow Ian to feed her the seafood.
