The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 1528

Chapter 1528 Drunk

Upon hearing that, Aurora laughed and commented, “It isn’t the same when it comes to you, of course. He treats you as his family.” She then added, “I’m also slowly making up to him for my absence when he was little, so hopefully one day he will treat me as his family.”

It was shortly after that Ian returned with a dozen beers while an elated Aurora quickly approached him to take the carton from him.

Cindy remembered that he would not be filming for the show until almost noon the next day, so it wouldn’t matter even if he drank a bit today.

This time, Aurora opened a bottle of beer for each of them and Cindy took the proffered bottle. It was after that when Aurora poured a glass for herself before she drained its contents.

Subsequently, while they were eating, Aurora asked Cindy how she had been in the past few days of living in another place.

In fact, nothing special had happened when Cindy stayed with Naomi. As she was never an outdoor person, she hadn’t really gone out with Naomi to have fun. Instead, she was rather an introvert who preferred staying indoors whenever she had time. So, she nodded and replied, “Not bad.”

Ian, who was listening from one side, asked, “When is the next time you are going to meet up with Gary?”


Cindy, in fact, had no answer to that. Since Gary was a busy man, it would be up to him to decide their next meeting. She then raised her glass and took a sip of beer before she answered, “I’m not sure. I’m waiting for his call.”



“Okay,” Ian responded. “Inform me when you are going to meet him.”

She understood what he implied—he wanted her to notify him beforehand so that he could approve her leave.

Nonetheless, Aurora, who had a different interpretation, chuckled before she teased, “What’s wrong? Don’t you trust Cindy? As a man, you should be more generous in some matters despite feeling jealous. Cindy is going to see Gary for official matters, so don’t overthink it.”

Upon hearing that, Ian felt helpless and darted her a look without replying. However, Cindy lowered her head and laughed before she explained on his behalf, “It’s not because of jealousy; it’s to arrange my schedule.”

Aurora was stumped; she raised her glass and downed the beer.

The three of them had a meal together peacefully and managed to finish all the beer that Ian had bought in the end. Even Cindy had her fair share of alcohol; it was probably due to the incredibly pleasant atmosphere.

After having lunch, they sat on the couch and casually chatted for a while before Aurora rose to her feet.

Cindy thought about it for a moment and followed suit. Although she was fine and her head also felt alright when she sat down, she knew that something was wrong the moment she stood up by supporting herself by the table. Her head buzzed before her whole world started to spin.
