The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 1998

Chapter 1998 Negotiation

Cindy could tell that they were interested in the file. Everyone knew it was a well of knowledge, and learning from it was akin to Serena teaching them herself. Cindy ignored them and went back to her work. After they were gone, she heaved a sigh of relief and put the file down, then she picked her phone up.

Ian still didn't call her. She heaved a sigh and called him instead.

Ian quickly picked up, but before she could say anything, he said, "And I thought you had a date today."

She knew he was feeling jealous, so she explained, "I was just done with work."

Ian said nothing. Cindy asked him if he had lunch, but before Ian could say anything, the driver shouted, "He has been waiting for you to call him after he finished his work. It's been hours!"

Ian probably covered the phone after that. Cindy could hear two voices talking, but the sound was too muffled for her to make out anything.

A few moments later, Ian asked, "Have you had anything?"


"No," Cindy said. "I don't feel like eating."

Ian had calmed down a bit after a full night, and he could start to be concerned about her again. "You still have to, or your body's going to break down. It's still early, so grab something."

Cindy thought about it, then she stood up and went toward the elevator.

She wanted to ask him when he would come back, but he said, "I can have a day off in two days. We'll hold the engagement ceremony then."

Cindy paused, then she asked, "When? Did you take a day off?"

Ian said, "Yes. I told the director that I might have something to do, so we hastened the filming progress. We're ahead of schedule now, so I can have a breather."

Cindy heaved a sigh of relief. "When are we holding it? I'll get the flight tickets."

Ian replied, "I'll do it myself. I'll tell you when; you just need to pack. You don't have to bring too many things because we can buy them there."

They could fly there, but there was no need to exhaust themselves on the way.

Cindy gave it some thought, and she agreed. Eventually, she reached the cafeteria.

Ian was about to have lunch as well, so they hung up. Cindy got her lunch and sat down on an empty seat.
