The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 2157

Chapter 2157 Where Has the Time Gone?

Aurora knew he was right. Still, she thought it was a waste. "Not everyone would suddenly pull out when their career is going well like you."

I'm not them, though. Ian would never live his life in the shadow of anyone else. He wanted to be himself. After breakfast, he returned to the bedroom to check on Cindy. She was still fast asleep, so he looked at her for a moment before he closed the door and left.

The driver was waiting for him, and he was surprised to see Ian alone. He looked past Ian's shoulder. "Cindy's not sending you off? Did she look particularly uninterested when you came home?"

Ian didn't answer. He knew it was just a tease, so he opened the door and got into the car. "Does your family look happy when you go home?"

The driver heaved a sigh. "Of course. My daughter even asked me why I couldn't stay home all the time. I'm not even a celebrity, she said."

Ian cocked his eyebrow and looked at the driver. "What about your wife? Does she complain?"

No. The driver was a little proud of that. "She thinks I'm working my *ss off. They were already halfway through dinner when I went back last night, but she still whipped something up for me. I think she has it hard, too. She has to take care of our kid alone, and that's the worst and most tiring job of all."

Ian grunted. "At least you're still human enough to actually empathize with your wife."

"Well, of course." The driver thumped his chest. "I'm a family-oriented guy. Never had my wife suffer whenever I was with her." He then sighed. "But I can't give her a better life, so all I can do is make more money to support my family." He drove ahead. "If I can get rich overnight, I'll quit my job and stay at home with them to make up for the lost time."

Reminded of something, the driver chortled. "Before working under you, I worked as a driver too. I couldn't go home too much even back then. Sometimes, I had to stay out for two weeks or so, yet I didn't even make as much money as I do now. My girl didn't even recognize me. I remember when I went back once, she was standing right outside our house, but she clearly didn't know who I was. She even called me mister." He sighed heavily. "You have no idea how bad it hurt me."
