Although she knew her mother had some money, she also knew shecouldn’t possibly touch them after losing the breadwinner of the household. It wasn’t that she never felttired, but she felt shackled down by her family.
Meanwhile, Hannah still hadn’t released any sort of statement. Instead, a few of the celebrities whoparticipated in the program during the same day as Sena spoke up regarding the scandal. One of themmentioned seeing Sena and Ian walking out of the dressing room with nobody around them, evenadding that Sena seemed to be avoiding eye contact with other people.
Another one then said they heard Sena and her assistant chatting about Sena’s date with Ian while atthe back of the stage. There were a few people who spoke up in a vague manner regarding thescandal, but despite not having provided substantial proof, all of their statements pointed toward Ianhaving cheated on his girlfriend with Sena.
Having read their respective statements, Cindy was boiling with rage. She showed them to Ian with alook of disapproval. “Look at the nonsense that they spouted! They saw us coming out from thedressing room together, so how dare they come up with these lies? They’re going to be punished forthis!”
However, Ian seemed unperturbed while sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed. To kill time, he wasplaying some games on his phone as he had nothing else to do. With a nonchalant look on his face, hesaid, “Stop reading those sh*tty articles.”
Clutching onto her phone, Cindy thought back on the precautionary measures that Ian and her put inplace but never used. She expected herself to be steadfast while in the face of scandals like that, but
as soon as one broke out, she couldn’t help but get all riled up.
During noon, she went out to buy lunch for Ian, only to find that there were paparazzi outside of thehotel, indicating that they somehow caught wind of Ian’s whereabouts. Although she didn’t have a keensight, there were so many of them that she could hardly miss them. With a frown on her face, shepretended not to notice the paparazzi, buying lunch as fast as possible before returning to the hotel.She even took care to check if any of them followed her before knocking on the door to Ian’s room.
Upon entering his room, she told him about them being surrounded by paparazzi, but he didn’t seem tocare, making no comments while maintaining his usual appetite.

Ian was new to the industry, so he hadn’t laid down roots. Therefore, the scandal could easily destroyhis career even if it didn’t gain as much traction as the other celebrities. That aside, she also wanted toknow if the lack of substantiality was the reason for Ian’s agency not releasing the recording. If that wasthe case, she figured she wouldn’t mind standing out to explain things.
Seemingly reading her mind, Ian interrupted her thoughts. “Eat up and stop overthinking this. Stopbeing a worry wart. The agency has their own agendas.” novelbin
Cindy lowered her gaze. “I don’t want this to affect your career.”
Will this affect my career? While Ian supposed that it was true, he didn’t care even if it did. By thatpoint, he no longer had anything that he cared too much to hold on to.
