Ian, too, found Simon's case rather sarcastic. "With a situation like that, it's no different from robbery."
Simon was so focused on money that when he killed Leah, he was probably no longer aware of family ties.
Ian asked Sean about it sometime after that and learned that Simon was in serious debt. Leah could indeed help him pay back the debt, but if she did, she wouldn't have much money left. One could only imagine the amount.
Simon must've been driven to insanity because of the money, so it wasn't a surprise that he would turn against Leah.
Cindy was still a little bothered. "I wonder what Leah was thinking at the end. Maybe she was in despair, and she regretted a lot of things."
If Leah still had some common sense, she might regret not putting more thought into Simon's habits. She was the one who had more resources, and if she had put more effort into it, she might have raised Simon to be someone on par with Sean.
However, unexpectedly, the youngest son of the Morgan Family was raised to eventually walk down the wrong path.
Some things really didn't turn out the way people thought they would. Sean and Ian, who had never experienced a mother's love in their youth, and seldom a father's love, if any, eventually became successful in the end.
On the contrary, Simon, who had been pampered all his life, had turned out to be a failure. Actually, their parents played a huge part in this, but no amount of discussion could help anything now.
Bryce was dead, and so was Leah. With Simon reaching a point of no return, he had no one to blame.
Cindy thought for a bit, then said, "What about Sally? Did she go back? She should know about this already, right?"
Ian didn't know about Sally, either. She should have heard of this incident already, and he felt that Simon would have contacted Sally before Leah's passing. It wasn't for any other reason. Judging by Simon's personality, if he couldn't get money from Leah, he would've gone to Sally for help.
Ian simply said, "Who knows? I don't care if she knew about it or not; things had turned out like this, anyway. There's nothing she can do about it now."
Now that Cindy thought about it, Sally was quite pitiful too. Sally wasn't the nicest person, but she repented eventually. However, she still ended up in an unpleasant situation. It's not a good ending, but neither is it bad.
Ian didn't want to talk too much on this topic, so he moved on to ask about her work and if things were going smoothly.

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...
