The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 1728

Chapter 1728 Insecurities

Since she had no experience, Cindy raised her hand and thereafter dropped it, not knowing where to place it.

As Ian kissed her, he began to lose himself and pressed her on the bed in the end.

By now, she could scarcely breathe, but she ultimately lifted her hands once again and braced them against his chest.

Although she knew this wasn’t quite the right occasion for it, she asked in a somewhat stubborn manner, “Were you in love with Sophia Gwendolyn once upon a time ago?”

Not expecting her to ask such a mood-killing question at this time, he paused.

It was evident that Cindy truly had no experience socializing with the opposite gender.

Nonetheless, he had nothing to hide when it came to Sophia. She was a part of his past—a genuine, irrefutable, and non-negligible part of his life.

So, Ian acknowledged the question with a hum and added, “I was in love with her at one point, but there was nothing between us. From the beginning, she never had any interest in me.”

After all, although John and Sophia were in conflict at one point, Ian never stood a chance throughout their entire ordeal.

Even after hearing Ian’s answer, Cindy was still confused. While it didn’t seem to ease her discomfort, it wasn’t quite painful enough to make her particularly upset either.


Then, she asked again, “How long were you in love with her? Do you still love her?”

For a moment, he stared at her like she was a fool.

He pressed two kisses to her lips before refuting, “Of course not. Why would I treat you like this if I had someone else in my heart? Who do you take me for?”

Despite knowing there was something off about her line of questioning, she had persisted because she wanted a definite answer.

So, she conceded with a hum and curled her fingers around the fabric of his shirt before admitting, “I’m a little scared, that’s all.”

After all, when they stood next to each other, she was inferior to him in many ways.

There were a multitude of beautiful women in the entertainment industry and once the current storm blew over, he would be off to film again with his female co-star renowned for her beauty in the entertainment industry.

How could Cindy feel at ease with that?

Being accustomed to the quick flings and the whirlwind romances of the entertainment industry, she was naturally afraid.

If she was able to do so, she’d want to be in a serious, long-term relationship with Ian.

He gently cupped her cheek. “Don’t be scared. Trust me.”

While pursing her lips, she asked after a moment of thought, “In that case, is it okay if I request for two things?”

Naturally, Ian had no intention of refusing Cindy. “Tell me.”

She lowered her gaze and stared at the button on his collar. “If you find yourself developing feelings for whoever you’re working with, I hope you’ll be honest about it. Whether we part ways or continue with our relationship, I want a definite answer.”

“Okay,” he agreed. “Don’t worry, I don’t like deception in relationships either.”

Then, she continued with her second request. “While I’m not going to limit who you work with, I hope you’ll respect me. Do you understand what I mean?”
