Chapter 2027 Upon Reflection

Ian wasn't lying when he said that he hadn't spoken much to Yulia. He knew that Cindy would certainly

feel rather offended because he hadn't told her about it. So, he no longer dared to hide it from her and Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

decided to come clean. Cindy listened to his explanation attentively, and she gave his stomach a soft

pinch after hearing what he said. "How should I deal with you if I find out that you're lying to me?"

He quickly reached over to pull her in for a hug. "I wouldn't dare to do that. You're so smart—I'm too

scared to lie to you."

Cindy didn't press him since Aurora was beside them, so she decided to let him off the hook

temporarily. Once it was time for them to board, they got onto the plane and found their seats. Aurora

must have woken up a little too early, for she shut her eyes after settling into a comfortable position.

Both Ian and Cindy were sitting next to each other while Aurora's seat was separated by an aisle. That

way, Ian and Cindy could talk without having to worry too much.

Once everyone settled down in their seats, Cindy turned around to look at Ian. "Is there anything else

you're hiding from me?" Ian had already expected this. He knew that she wouldn't let Yulia's visitation

go so easily. It was the same logic—he felt just as uneasy when he found out about Cindy and Gary

meeting up with each other.

They held the same beliefs about each others' opposite-sex relationships, so it wasn't hard for him to

put himself in Cindy's shoes. Ian held Cindy's hand as he spoke. "I'm not hiding anything from you. I

just don't think there's a point in mentioning this. Yulia has her own selfish intentions for visiting me—

she didn't just come because she wanted to see me. She only came because she's struggling on her

own. She probably wanted to show me how tough she had it so that I'd put in a good word or two for

her." Ian spoke in a warm and sincere tone. "I don't think she has any other intentions toward me now.

In fact, I think she might even hate me. Her life wouldn't be in such a state if it weren't for me."

Cindy pressed her lips together as she stared at Ian with a suspicious look on her face. "Are you sure

you're not hiding anything else from me?"

He sighed. "There's nothing else. Don't you believe me?" Only then did Cindy look away from him.

"Fine. I believe you, but I won't let you go so easily if this happens again."

"Okay, okay." Ian beamed. "If I ever hide anything from you again, you can punish me however you

want to." He seemed pretty serious about it, and Cindy understood where he was coming from. He's

right. I think Yulia might actually resent him. Although she never had a good reputation, people usually

think of her amazing talent and skills when they mention her name. It's easy for one's flaws to be

concealed when you have impressive skill sets. I guess people used to have a rather neutral

impression of her—she might not be extremely lovable, but at least people didn't hate her. Things have

been different ever since she got involved with Ian. Her reputation has gone down the drain. It's no

surprise for her to resent and blame Ian since she isn't the most generous person to begin with.

After a while, Cindy found herself a comfortable spot on the plane before closing her eyes to rest.

However, more thoughts popped into her head after she did so. She had been suspicious of Ian earlier,

and for one second, she had considered the worst possible scenario that could occur. Now that she

was reflecting on her actions, she couldn't help but realize how sensitive she had been. Ian was

working in the entertainment industry, so he would definitely interact with female celebrities. She knew

that she couldn't continue to be so overprotective of her man. If she continued acting that way, Ian

might feel repulsed by her actions, and she would only be straining herself.

Cindy let out a long sigh. This might be the greatest downside of having a boyfriend who's in the

entertainment industry. He has too many women and too many temptations around him, and that just

makes me feel really insecure.
