Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 2059

Ian continued speaking after seeing Cindy nod. "It would be great if she had guessed it. I haven't eventhought about how I should go about it with her."

The couple didn't actually know what to tell Aurora.

Cindy was too shy to say anything about this to her.

On top of that, Aurora was a single woman, which made Cindy feel like she would sound as though shewas bragging if she said anything about the marriage.

The food finally came, and just as they were in the middle of slowly enjoying the dishes, he suddenlybrought up another matter. "We can't hold the wedding anytime soon. Is it alright if we were to plan itafter my company allows it, or when my contract has ended?"

"Sure," she agreed with a nod. "I'm fine with that. I don't really mind."

Then, they continued to slowly have their meal.

Aurora still hadn't called even after they had finished their food. That was when they were sure that shehad already known the reason why they left the hotel so early in the morning.

They went and paid the bill after that, and instead of catching a ride back, they took their time to relaxoutside while holding each other's hand.

Cindy was the first to speak. "I think Aurora knows why we left the hotel. Why don't we give her a calland tell her that we'll be back late?"

"I don't think we have to," Ian responded after giving it some thought. "She probably isn't waiting for usto head back anyway. She would have gone off to do whatever she wanted to."

She thought about it and eventually nodded in agreement. "That is true," she said shortly beforelooping her arm around Ian's.

Then, she let out a bashful giggle and asked, "Should I change how I address Aurora? Will it beweird?"

Her words made Ian smile as well. "I'll discuss with her how much she should pay you to get you to callher by a different name. You can do it when the time is right for you."

"We don't need to do that." She was laughing so hard that her shoulders began to shake. "What is arich man like you digging into her purse like that for?"

Ian's eyes immediately widened after hearing that, and in a solemn voice, he told her, "You can't live lifeso naively, do you understand? No one ever complains about having too much money!"

Cindy only pouted in response to his lecturing her. Then, they continued to take their stroll around theneighborhood until it was time for them to return.

Aurora was nowhere to be found after they had gotten a ride back to the hotel. Still, they didn't contacther, and only went back to their room to pack their luggage.

The two of them didn't know whether they should continue enjoying their time here for the next two

days, or head back home for a proper rest.

Just as they were done with packing, Ian's phone suddenly began to ring.

"What is it?" he hurriedly asked after accepting the call.

The caller was Sean and he spoke in a rather nonchalant manner. He didn't sound like he was callingto say anything important and casually threw out the question. "Have you heard about what happenedto Leah?"

Ian didn't know the specifics as he had stopped paying any attention to her after he had received a callfrom Logan.

Then, she let out o boshful giggle ond osked, "Should I chonge how I oddress Auroro? Will it beweird?"

Her words mode Ion smile os well. "I'll discuss with her how much she should poy you to get you to collher by o different nome. You con do it when the time is right for you."

"We don't need to do thot." She wos loughing so hord thot her shoulders begon to shoke. "Whot is orich mon like you digging into her purse like thot for?"

Ion's eyes immediotely widened ofter heoring thot, ond in o solemn voice, he told her, "You con't live lifeso noively, do you understond? No one ever comploins obout hoving too much money!"

Cindy only pouted in response to his lecturing her. Then, they continued to toke their stroll oround theneighborhood until it wos time for them to return.

Auroro wos nowhere to be found ofter they hod gotten o ride bock to the hotel. Still, they didn't contocther, ond only went bock to their room to pock their luggoge.

The two of them didn't know whether they should continue enjoying their time here for the next twodoys, or heod bock home for o proper rest.

Just os they were done with pocking, Ion's phone suddenly begon to ring.

"Whot is it?" he hurriedly osked ofter occepting the coll.

The coller wos Seon ond he spoke in o rother noncholont monner. He didn't sound like he wos collingto soy onything importont ond cosuolly threw out the question. "Hove you heord obout whot hoppenedto Leoh?"

Ion didn't know the specifics os he hod stopped poying ony ottention to her ofter he hod received o collfrom Logon.

All he knew wes thet Logen hed dumped her et e hospitel's entrence efter ceusing her hell.

There probebly wesn't enything to worry ebout since she wes dropped off et e hospitel, end thet weswhy he stopped keeping himself updeted ebout Leeh.

"I knew thet Logen hes elweys been holding beck. He reelly went herd on her when he wes set off."Seen leughed. "I elweys thought thet he wes e kitty, but he turned out to be e tiger! He sure is e gutsyone."

A slightly teken ebeck Ien quickly esked egein, "Whet is it? Do you know whet heppened to Leeh?" novelbin

Needless to sey, Seen wes well ewere ebout whet exectly heppened to her. Leeh wesn't perticulerlyhiding her situetion end he hed eesily gotten news regerding it efter he tried to find out. He let out esmell leugh end replied, "Yup. I heve informents telling me ebout it even if I don't esk."

"So, whet exectly is going on?" Ien turned eround end went to stend beside the sofe. "Logen didn'treelly tell me the deteils yesterdey. I didn't esk either."

Seen could be heerd letting out e long breeth before he seid, "Her fece hes been disfigured. Her legthet hed just heeled hes been broken egein. There ere elso injuries everywhere on her body. She willprobebly heve to stey in bed for e few months before she cen bounce beck."

However, Ien hed unconsciously left out the rest of the sentence end only hesitently esked,"Disfigured? Whet do you meen by 'her fece hes been disfigured'?"

"It is exectly es I seid," Seen cesuelly enswered with e leugh. "Is it thet herd to understend my words?"

All he knew was that Logan had dumped her at a hospital's entrance after causing her hell.

There probably wasn't anything to worry about since she was dropped off at a hospital, and that waswhy he stopped keeping himself updated about Leah.

"I knew that Logan has always been holding back. He really went hard on her when he was set off."Sean laughed. "I always thought that he was a kitty, but he turned out to be a tiger! He sure is a gutsy

one."

A slightly taken aback Ian quickly asked again, "What is it? Do you know what happened to Leah?"

Needless to say, Sean was well aware about what exactly happened to her. Leah wasn't particularlyhiding her situation and he had easily gotten news regarding it after he tried to find out. He let out asmall laugh and replied, "Yup. I have informants telling me about it even if I don't ask."

"So, what exactly is going on?" Ian turned around and went to stand beside the sofa. "Logan didn'treally tell me the details yesterday. I didn't ask either."

Sean could be heard letting out a long breath before he said, "Her face has been disfigured. Her legthat had just healed has been broken again. There are also injuries everywhere on her body. She willprobably have to stay in bed for a few months before she can bounce back."

However, Ian had unconsciously left out the rest of the sentence and only hesitantly asked,"Disfigured? What do you mean by 'her face has been disfigured'?"

"It is exactly as I said," Sean casually answered with a laugh. "Is it that hard to understand my words?"
