Cindy bid Gary farewell and strode into the company.
However, she was startled when she stepped into the lobby, for Lucy was standing there and looking at Gary's car.
She quickly pulled herself together and nodded at Lucy. "Hi, Miss Harrison."
Lucy pocketed her gaze and glanced at Cindy. "Did you go out with Mr. Frye?"
Since there was nothing to hide, Cindy hummed. "Yes, Mr. Frye happened to pass by when I was going out for lunch, so we decided to have a meal together."
Lucy nodded, and there didn't seem to be anything off about her expression. She even curled her lips as though flashing a smile at Cindy. "Alright, let's go back to the office."
Without responding to her, Cindy turned around and strode toward the elevator. After the door was closed, she let out a breath. It's a small world, huh? I didn't expect to see her there when Gary and I returned from lunch!
Nevertheless, it didn't bother her. Since she wasn't guilty in any way, it made no difference that the woman saw them coming back together.
After returning to the office, she quickly rested her head on the table and got some shuteye. She lacked inspiration in the morning, so she had practically done nothing. If she couldn't rest well now, she wouldn't be able to do anything in the afternoon.
She soon dozed off, but she couldn't sleep well.
That was because she had an erotic dream where she recalled what Ian had done to her the night before. For some reason, she even felt bashful in her dream. Although they were a couple, she still felt shy whenever she was with Ian, especially when they were in bed.
It wasn't until someone tapped on Cindy's shoulder that she awakened. The person was the gossipy woman who always slid to her in her chair.
The woman reminded her in a small voice, "It's time to work. Why were you so sound asleep?"
She had found a general theme for the design and drawn a little of it, but she scrapped the draft because it wasn't up to her standard.
For some reason, an inspiration sprang into her mind as she sat there. She quickly picked up a pen and started sketching on paper.
Since she was engrossed in it, she no longer felt tired or sleepy. As more inspirations came into her mind, she was able to draw the frame and fill up the details quickly.
At that moment, she seemed to walk down memory lane and return to her college time. She recalled her teacher telling her she was talented in design.
Although many people said that hard work was more important than talent, it couldn't be denied that talent was crucial to success. If a person didn't have any talent, they would lose their way and couldn't find a way out.
Cindy took a deep breath and picked up her draft. Even though she was satisfied with it, she wondered what Serena would think.
Since it was just a first draft, she couldn't hand it in. She had to wait until her inspirations were gone before she took another look at it.

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...
