Female Novel
Chapter 1560
Aurora blinked and she finally nodded her head after a short while. “Oh! I didn’t know that.”
Meanwhile, Cindy went to get some utensils for Aurora. “That’s enough. Stop being a bother and let’shave dinner. We should enjoy our meal regardless of what has happened.”
Then, Aurora had a look at the dishes in front of her. If she was being honest, several of her favoritedishes were on the table, but she didn’t have an appetite at all.
She waved Cindy off and replied, “I don’t feel like eating since I have no appetite. This is so annoying.”
Ian responded by reaching out for her bowl and he filled it with some food. “I’m not even annoyed, sowhy are you affected? This is nonsense and everything will eventually be clarified. Perhaps I’ll be morepopular with the public after this incident?”
Aurora glanced at him and she mentioned with a remorseful tone, “I keep feeling like I’ve causedtrouble for you.”
Cindy piped up from the side, “It’s not your fault and you didn’t cause the trouble. Even without thisincident, if someone was intent on targeting him, there would be some other issue next time. There’sno way he could have avoided it.” Subsequently, she handed over a spoon to Aurora.
At that moment, Aurora hesitated for a moment before she accepted the spoon.
Naomi, who was seated at the side, comforted Aurora too. “You should think about the good side.Those people who are intent on going after Ian are doing it because his resources are becoming more
valuable. After all, there are bound to be issues that come with fame.”
Everyone tried their best to comfort Aurora, who finally relaxed after taking a moment to calm down.
After enjoying their meal together, they gathered in the living room to watch some TV. To be moreaccurate, they had in fact gathered around the couch while waiting for the company’s feedback.
Previously, the company had used Ian’s social media account to release a statement.
The statement included an explanation about Ian and Yulia’s relationship and it briefly mentioned thatthe meeting earlier that afternoon was merely to share resources. At the end of the statement, therewas also a sentence that was his profession of love to Cindy.
Cindy had taken a look at it and she lacked the courage to cast her eyes on it again. The ending wasrather lovey-dovey and although she knew it was just for show, she couldn’t help but blush red uponreading it.
Soon after that, Ian received a phone call from the company and the gist of it was to ask her to releaseher statement as well.
If Cindy maintained her silence, there could be unkind speculations from the public. As such, it wouldmake things much easier if she was willing to take a stand.
After he hung up the phone, he turned around to discuss with her about his company’s suggestion.
In response, Cindy nodded in agreement. “Alright. I’ll immediately do that.” Subsequently, she took outher cell phone and logged into her social media account. It was the same account that she had signedup for to announce her relationship with Ian back then.
At this moment, Aurora shifted closer to look at the content of Cindy’s post whereas he remained quitenonchalant about it.
Cindy didn’t elaborate much and she mainly came up with a short paragraph. Then, she asked Ianwhether he wanted to take a look at the post before she published it.
He wasn’t too fussed about it. “It’s fine. You can go ahead and publish it.” novelbin
Without any delay, she hit the post button thereafter.
Meanwhile, Naomi sat by the side with a visibly upset expression. She scrolled her phone the wholetime and complained as she did that, “Why hasn’t Yulia posted her statement? What is she trying todo?! Ian’s statement has been published for quite a while, but she didn’t do it at the same time. Somuch time has passed since then and by the time she posts it, it could end up being misconstrued bythe public. Is she intentionally doing this?”
Cindy was well-aware of what Naomi meant. Yulia was well-known to be a woman of swift actions, butfor this incident, she didn’t come forward to clarify everything at first instance. Meanwhile, after Ian hadtaken a stand on it, Yulia’s response still remained unclear, which could result in others arriving at theirown conclusions.
Even if she released a statement to support him after some time, there would be some people whowould think that it was a compromise on her end for the sake of Ian’s reputation.
At this moment, Cindy frowned and turned to look at Ian. “Why don’t you ask her what’s going on? Itwill reflect badly on you if she drags this further.”
However, he wasn’t too concerned. “Perhaps she’s still considering how to explain the situation. Thereshouldn’t be any issues from her end.”
He was evidently on Yulia’s side, so Cindy didn’t pursue the topic any further.
Before Yulia could even post anything, Cindy’s statement suddenly became a trending topic. Thestatement that Cindy published was rather simple; she’d mainly questioned the paparazzi that secretlytook the photos on why they didn’t include the other person at the scene.
