For the last two days, Cindy was getting by quite comfortably in the company. Mr. Kaufmann had chatted briefly with her outside the last time, so the people at her workplace didn't dare to mess with her anymore.
Those people also knew that they had treated Cindy badly before, so they were ashamed to act friendly with her now.
As such, they just steered clear of her in a respectful way.
Cindy loved days like that, for she didn't want anyone to bother her at all.
In fact, it was her dream to live her life without people breathing down her neck.
Two days of work later, Cindy waited until everyone else had submitted their designs before submitting her own. She was still lacking in some areas, so it would appear haughty if she submitted her designs too early.
After all the designs were submitted, she could rest from work since it would be Saturday.
When she used to work as Ian's assistant, weekends meant nothing to her. She wasn't too busy with her work anyway, so she didn't really have to take days off.
Now that she could rest for the weekend without Ian by her side, she didn't know what to do.
Meanwhile, Aurora had been busy for the past two days; it seemed like they were going to start working on audio tests or something. Cindy didn't know the workflow too well, and she only knew that Aurora had been quite busy.
Weekends didn't mean anything to Aurora either. Even if it were Saturday tomorrow, Aurora would still have to go to work.
In other words, it meant that Cindy would be home alone.
Cindy used to love peace and quiet, be it at work or in life. However, now that she could have some peace at work, her life wasn't too noisy anymore. On the contrary, she felt a little lonely.
Cindy sent Ian messages at night to express her thoughts. She told him that she didn't have much to do, and it was boring to stay at home alone.
Ian's reply came a while later. He probably also knew that Aurora was a little busy these days, so she wasn't spending much time at home. Hence, she couldn't keep Cindy company.
Ian jokingly replied to Cindy's message by saying, 'Why don't we have a child to keep you company?'
Cindy was stunned when she saw the message, but she smiled afterward. Although she knew that Ian was joking, the joke had lifted her mood instantly.
Truth be told, she really wanted to give birth to a child. By then, their home would be rather merry.
Still, she could only dream about it since it wasn't an easy task to carry out in real life.
With her and Ian's conditions right now, they couldn't possibly handle it. Her work was just getting on track, and Ian was quite busy as well.
If they wanted to have a child, both of them would have to slow down their work.
However, that wasn't quite possible right now.
Cindy hesitated for a while before replying to Ian in the same joking manner, 'Hey, what if we already do?'
Cindy hesitated for a while before replying to Ian in the same joking manner, 'Hey, what if we already do?'
There wasn't much birth control going on the last few times, so Cindy wasn't really sure if it would happen or not.
After all, they were still youthful.
Ian's reply came quickly. 'Just give birth if you do. Don't hide it from me.'
Cindy leaned against the couch, bored out of her mind. She swung her legs and thought that she would give birth if they really had a child.
Even though she wasn't a softie, she wasn't cruel either. She definitely wouldn't abort the child if she were pregnant. After all, it was their own child.
They chatted casually for a while before Ian had something to do, so Cindy put down her phone.
She then sat cross-legged on the couch and turned on the TV. However, she couldn't concentrate on anything on the screen.
After a while, Cindy took her phone and started a game, but she wasn't in the mood for games either.
When she was bored and all alone, she felt annoyed no matter what she did.
In the end, Cindy turned off the TV and went back to her room. Since she had nothing else to do, the only option left was to sleep.
Cindy lay on the bed, but she couldn't sleep even after tossing and turning for some time. Her mind was occupied with too many things.

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...
