Gary let out a breath and continued, "I came across Lucy at a dinner party back then. After it ended, the person who held the party told me that he meant to play Cupid for the two of us. I have no idea what Lucy thought about it at that time, but since I wasn't aware of it, I didn't turn her down straight away. Therefore, even though I made it clear to her later, she was still relentless. She's a little obstinate. If you don't make something clear to her right away, it'll be pointless to do so later. As you can see, I'm in a bit of trouble now."
He paused for a moment with a helpless expression. "I was the one who recommended you to your company. She's aware of that, so I'm worried she'll make things difficult for you. Therefore, you have to turn her down directly so that you won't end up like me. Now, she won't believe me no matter what I say."
Cindy pursed her lips and gave it some thought. "Do you really have no feelings for Miss Harrison at all? I think she's an amiable woman."
Gary was taken aback before shooting her a look. "What are you implying?"
Faced with the question, Cindy realized she had said something wrong. Her relationship with Gary was awkward, to begin with, so she wasn't supposed to say anything about his love affairs.
Therefore, she quickly clasped her hands together and apologized to him. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that."
Anyway, Gary didn't intend to settle the score with her. He just wanted to ask her whether Lucy was mean to her.
He understood Lucy's temperament. She was petty and obstinate. Although Cindy had a boyfriend, she was on good terms with Gary. Therefore, Lucy would likely pull a trick on her.
During the meal the day before, Lucy kept asking about Cindy. It wasn't until Gary appeared displeased that she relented. It was giving him a headache since it was hard to get rid of the woman. If such a person went finding fault with Cindy, the latter would be troubled.

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...
