The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 2197

Chapter 2197 You’ve Passed

A few moments later, Cindy heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Phew! I didn't know acting was so tiring. I always thought it was easy for Ian."

"Haha, that's because you two have different purposes to serve, but I must say that you're a pretty good actress. Have you thought of venturing into the entertainment industry with Ian?" Serena responded with a smile.

"No thanks! I don't belong there, and I will never fit in. I witnessed a lot of shady stuff when I worked as his assistant previously. Furthermore, I'm pretty happy with my current nine-to-five job." Cindy told Serena how she felt about that idea while waving her hand.

"Oh, come on. Do you know how many people have done all they could to get famous but failed?" Serena asked with a smile.

However, Cindy didn't seem to agree with Serena's point of view, thinking many people insisted on venturing into the industry despite knowing it wasn't a place for the kindest. The only reason she refused to venture into the entertainment industry was that she wasn't ambitious about building her career in that domain. After all, she was content with her status quo as long as she and Ian had enough money to get by. Besides, she was more concerned about their mental welfare and quality of life rather than luxury and materialism.

In the meantime, Serena had no idea where to go; she was only making up an excuse to leave when she told Lucy she wanted to go shopping, but since Cindy wanted to tag along, she decided to take her to a nearby shopping mall to kill time. On the other hand, Cindy was not a person who enjoyed shopping.

Thus, when neither of them bought anything upon strolling around the mall for a while, they figured it was probably time for them to make a move and took a cab back to the office. They arrived at the company just as their break ended. Then, they exchanged gazes in front of Serena's office without saying a word before parting ways. Despite the silent interaction, the two ladies seemed to mutually understand each other's minds.

Soon, Cindy returned to her desk and continued with her work while Serena went through all her design drafts before visiting the Altering and Tailoring Department with Cindy. In reality, many other employees visited that department to tailor their own dresses. Cindy was no exception as she had learned sewing in school and was required to tailor a dress before she could graduate.
