Chapter 1715 To Prevent Future Misunderstandings
Truth be told, Ian’s recent behavior toward her suggested an intimacy that was beyond a usual relationship.
Truth be told, Ian’s recent behavior toward her suggested an intimacy that was beyond a usual relationship.
Although the two of them were pretending to be lovers, they both knew the truth behind this pretense, so certain
actions between them would be inappropriate.
However, Cindy, who was bashful in nature, was shy to remind him although she knew that it wasn’t right.
Presently, Ian moved and stepped out of the room. “Let’s go and eat.”
While Cindy was following him from behind with her lips pursed, she was actually thinking about Ian’s explanation
earlier. Turns out that Ian was chatting with Sean. I wondered why the two men chose to talk about those in the
middle of the night, though. Instead of having a chat like that during the day, they furtively texted each other at
night and caused me to think that Ian might be keeping in touch with Yulia in private.
Come to think of it, from the way he explained the situation to me earlier, did he think that I felt jealous? Cindy felt
frustrated at herself at the thought. Although I indeed felt a little uncomfortable when I suspected his relationship

On the other hand, Aurora, who had finished preparing their meal, was going to ask them to come over to eat
when she saw the two of them. “Come here! I’ve just finished preparing a meal and the two of you are here. Let’s
dig in.” She smiled and waved at them as she spoke, then turned to Cindy. “Are you alright? Do you feel better
now?”
Ian turned to look at Cindy and responded on her behalf, “She should be fine now since I’ve talked things out with
her.”
Aurora cast him a glare from one side. “I knew it was you who provoked her. I reckoned that a girl with a temper as
gentle as Cindy’s would never reveal that kind of an expression if it weren’t because of your fault.”
Ian nodded. “Yes, yes, yes. It was my fault. I promise to explain everything clearly to prevent any future
misunderstandings.”
Argh! I can’t bear to continue listening to their nonsense. What kind of an expression did I reveal this morning? And
what did he mean by preventing future misunderstandings? However, Cindy couldn’t find any words to refute their
statements at all. So, she turned on her heels and took a seat at the dining table.
Upon seeing that, Aurora raised her hand and tapped on Ian’s shoulder twice. “You’d better behave yourself after
this. Do you think that she is on her own? No, she and I are a team. You have to go through me before you even
think about bullying her.”
Ian sat down next to her and responded, “Sometimes, I wonder if you are my biological mother. When I see the old
man again, I have to ask him what happened with you two back then.”
Aurora snorted. “You should also ask him if he is sure that the youngest son of his is really his. That little brat seems
to not inherit his cunning character at all—getting himself involved in the mess now is no different from having a
death wish.”
At the mention of Simon, Cindy recalled about the incident in which Leah purposely called Ian to give him a
scolding. Hence, she suddenly chimed in from the side, “Perhaps Simon really isn’t his son.”
Aurora turned to look at Cindy. Feeling satisfied with her performance, she grabbed the latter’s arm. “Cindy, you
know me the best. To be honest, I hope that the brat isn’t the old man’s son; I wonder what will be his reaction
when he finds out. After toying around with women outside for so many years, he was tricked by one of them. I
can’t wait to see that happen,” Aurora commented in a wicked tone. Upon seeing her reaction, an initially enraged

Ian raised his eyes and cast a glance at Cindy. When he had just entered the house earlier, she seemed ill and had
a dark expression. However, she was currently smiling with a blush on her cheeks, which made her look very much
better than before.
Hence, he couldn’t help but to speculate that Cindy’s illness earlier might have something to do with the
misunderstanding that she had, whereby she thought that the person he had been in contact with yesterday was
Yulia.
Upon having such thoughts, Ian felt elated and was unable to hold back the feeling of satisfaction that bubbled up
inside him.
The three of them then chatted over the meal. After the meal, Aurora took out her phone in an attempt to check
the news online.
Nevertheless, the moment she logged in to the website, she suddenly yelped after barely scanning through it.
Cindy immediately looked at her. “What’s the matter? What happened again?”
Aurora handed the phone to her for her to check it out. “Look at this—the media reported that Ian went to the
hospital to visit the old man and they had a nice chat.”
