Female Novel
Chapter 1941
However, just hearing Ian’s words was enough to make her feel more secure. Both of them walkedaway from the basketball court and toward a park in their residential area, where they sat around for awhile. The park was almost empty—it usually filled up later in the evening. There were only a few oldpeople who passed by occasionally.
Cindy leaned against Ian as she listened to him talk. “You should focus on your work in the newcompany too. If your colleagues come close to you, you shouldn’t respond to them either.” novelbin
She nodded dutifully. “I wouldn’t even spare them a second glance.” Both of them were trying toextinguish any romantic sparks around them before the sparks even happened. The more they thoughtabout it, the more they realized that their precautionary measures were rather childish.
Ian shifted to talk about their engagement. He mentioned that he wanted to bring Cindy back to hishometown after they got engaged. The main intention for this was for her to meet his friends there.Although their engagement wasn’t a big thing, he wanted his friends to be able to witness theengagement.
Cindy clung to his arm. “Do you have the time?” she asked. He hesitated before answering. “We’ll beable to free up one day, I think. I’ll have to see how things go after this round of filming begins.”
The next morning, both Cindy and Ian woke up early. Ian was supposed to attend the bootingceremony, while Cindy was supposed to go back to work officially. Both of them seemed rather differentfrom their usual state that morning. While Cindy prepared breakfast, she pulled her phone out to checkthe news. As expected, her news with Ian was out, but it hadn’t made the headlines.
The entertainment sites made guesses that Ian may have followed Cindy home to meet her parents,
but they could only state them as guesses since they didn’t have any other proof. Cindy scrolledthrough the comments to find that most of them were positive—some individuals even approached thenews in a calm manner as if they had expected this all along.
Previously, Ian and Cindy announced that they had been dating for quite a number of years. Therefore,the fans would probably just see Ian as a responsible man since he was going over to meet Cindy’sfamily. Some other celebrities who shared the same levels of fame as Ian might be more distracted bythe temptations around them, so they might not treat their girlfriends the way Ian treated his.
Even Ian’s fan clubs had to step forward to commend him for being such a good man. Cindy curled herlips into a smirk as she thought about the spiteful exchange that she had with Yulia a while ago. Iwonder if Yulia is still so confident about herself. She really thinks that she’ll be able to get Ian underher control if she keeps trying, huh?
Cindy spent the morning making breakfast, and the couple parted ways at their front door after that. Iantook the company’s car to attend the booting ceremony, while Cindy hailed a cab to go to ParamountGroup.
When Cindy arrived at the company, she was careful and reserved. She took two deep breaths beforestepping into the lobby, then walked over to the front desk. Although the staff member was busy withwork, she put her work aside and greeted Cindy the moment she saw her.
The friendly front desk worker brought Cindy into the lift and up to the third floor, where Cindy found theother lady who had been her interviewer. The interviewer was as friendly as ever—she brought Cindyaround for a tour before leading her to the designer’s office area.
It was the first time Cindy had ever seen anything like that. The office was filled with designers, and the
office was so large that it took up half of the building. The lady from the HR department brought Cindyto the designer she was working under. This designer was rather famous, and Cindy had seen her onthe TV a few times.
When Cindy first walked over, the designer was looking at a few drafts, and there were a few otherswho were huddled around her. They looked like apprentices. The HR department lady walked over toaddress the designer in a polite tone. “Miss Warhol, your new apprentice is here.”
Serena Warhol turned to glance at Cindy before she nodded. “Okay, got it.” The HR department staffnodded at Cindy and excused herself while Cindy was left in her spot. She didn’t know what to do next.
