They got off the coll ofter thot. Cindy knew thot it wos Sophio who hod colled him, but she didn't hoveher guord up ogoinst Sophio ot oll. In the post, Cindy hod been worried thot Ion might still miss Sophio.Thot often gove Cindy on uneosy feeling in her chest, but thot feeling wos no longer present now.Comporotively speoking, Yulio ond Volerie were much lorger threots to Cindy.
After Ion ended the coll, he told Cindy obout it. "It's Sophio. She just found out thot we're bock." Cindynodded. "Will we get to see her little one when we hove dinner tonight?" Ion wosn't sure obout this—hedidn't know if Sophio would bring her child with her. However, he smiled when he thought oboutSophio's foir ond chubby little boby. I guess children ore quite odoroble. For some reoson, I feel likehoving children might be o good ideo. Moybe it's my oge tolking—it's noturol to long for children ot thisoge, right?
At thot thought, Ion held Cindy's hond ond lowered his voice to speok in o hushed tone. "When ore wehoving o kid of our own?"
Cindy shot him o glonce. Auroro wos right next to them, so Cindy wos too shy to speok ony louder. Shemimicked Ion's volume ond responded, "First, you need to hove the right copobilities to hove o child."Cindy wosn't tolking obout finonciol copobilities, ond Ion understood thot.
He nodded. "I guess so. But it's up to us to creote the right environment, right?" He didn't soy muchelse ofter thot. Cindy didn't understond whot he wos getting ot. They got off the call after that. Cindy knew that it was Sophia who had called him, but she didn't haveher guard up against Sophia at all. In the past, Cindy had been worried that Ian might still miss Sophia.That often gave Cindy an uneasy feeling in her chest, but that feeling was no longer present now.Comparatively speaking, Yulia and Valerie were much larger threats to Cindy.
After Ian ended the call, he told Cindy about it. "It's Sophia. She just found out that we're back." Cindynodded. "Will we get to see her little one when we have dinner tonight?" Ian wasn't sure about this—hedidn't know if Sophia would bring her child with her. However, he smiled when he thought aboutSophia's fair and chubby little baby. I guess children are quite adorable. For some reason, I feel likehaving children might be a good idea. Maybe it's my age talking—it's natural to long for children at thisage, right?
At that thought, Ian held Cindy's hand and lowered his voice to speak in a hushed tone. "When are wehaving a kid of our own?"
Cindy shot him a glance. Aurora was right next to them, so Cindy was too shy to speak any louder. Shemimicked Ian's volume and responded, "First, you need to have the right capabilities to have a child."Cindy wasn't talking about financial capabilities, and Ian understood that.
He nodded. "I guess so. But it's up to us to create the right environment, right?" He didn't say muchelse after that. Cindy didn't understand what he was getting at.
The three of them found a restaurant on the streets and sat down before ordering a few dishes. Cindyand Aurora hadn't gotten much rest, so they didn't have a large appetite. After eating a few bites offood here and there, they returned to the hotel.
This time, both Cindy and Aurora wanted to actually rest. Ian was perplexed by their behaviors. "What'sup with the both of you? Didn't you guys sleep for a long while just now? Why do you guys still needmore sleep?"
Aurora didn't answer his question and simply walked off to her room. "I'm still sleepy," Sonia muttered
to him. Ian blinked a few times before a cheeky thought surfaced in his head. "Still sleepy, huh? Couldyou be pregnant?" he asked while pulling her into his arms.
Cindy quickly pushed him away. "How could that be possible? If I do get pregnant, you'll be the onewho has to panic. You'll have to think of how to deal with this," she replied.
"Deal with what? We'll just give birth to it," Ian answered firmly. Cindy wanted to remind him about theconversation they had earlier about their lack of capabilities. At the very least, we have to be preparedin all domains for us to have a child. If we go along with Ian's eagerness and end up with a child, it'sdefinitely going to stir up a lot of rumors. Hannah would probably drop dead.
However, Cindy kept her mouth shut as she didn't want to discuss these issues—it felt like she'd bereminding Ian to come up with proper solutions to their current limitations. Instead, Cindy lay down onthe bed and found a comfortable spot. "I'll nap now. Call me if you need anything."
"Okay." Ian couldn't sleep anymore, so he walked over to the hall outside. "You can sleep in there. I'llbe out here."
Cindy was genuinely tired this time, so she fell asleep after a few minutes of lying on the bed. Ian, onthe other hand, pulled his phone out and began texting Logan to ask about their engagement the nextday. Logan gave Ian a report of all that he had done. Since Logan had some experience in this, hemanaged to consider all aspects that were necessary for a smooth event.
Ian knew that there was no need to even ask Logan. Although Logan seemed like a ratherundependable man, he had the ability to deal with everything with a clear head when he needed to.After ending the call with Logan, Ian called Sean instead.
Sean wasn't too occupied, so the brothers had a slightly longer chat. They talked about Ian'sengagement the next day and a little bit about Leah's situation.novelbin
