Chapter 1685 Old Mr Morgan
“Okay. Just let me know what his room number is. You don’t have to be around if you’re busy with your work,” Ian
said. Sean ended the call after he told Ian the room number. Ian had finished his cigarette just then, so he turned
around and flicked the cigarette butt into the bin before walking home.
By then, Aurora and Cindy had already finished their breakfast. Cindy had returned to the room while Aurora sat on
the couch. When Aurora saw Ian walking in, she addressed him in a hushed tone. “Why are you only back now?
What were you doing outside?”
Ian strode directly toward the dining table. “Nothing much. I gave Sean a call, and he said that we could go to the
hospital at noon. I don’t think you’d be interested in the visit, would you?”
Aurora flicked through the television channels as she spoke. “I’m not going to visit him if he’s healthy and well. You

desired a chance to show off in front of Bryce.
Ian merely nodded before he sat down and finished the rest of the food on the table. His room door was shut, so he
knew Cindy was in the room. They had woken up a little later than usual today, so it was about time for Ian to leave
the house once he was done with breakfast. He hastily tidied the table before he hurried over to his room.
When he pushed the door open, he found Cindy standing by the window and looking out. She jumped in surprise,
but Ian didn’t bother explaining himself. He merely grabbed himself a change of clothes. However, his footsteps
came to a halt right before he stepped out of the room. “Why don’t you come with me?” he said as he turned to
look at Cindy.
She took longer than usual to respond to him. “W-What? Where are we going?”
“I’m going to visit Old Mr. Morgan at the hospital,” Ian replied. He didn’t even refer to the old man as his father.
Initially, Ian had decided to pay the man a visit without having Cindy come along with him. He figured that he would
bring Cindy over the next time if the company needed any materials to come up with articles. However, right
before he stepped out of the room, he felt a sudden urge to change his mind.
Cindy was shocked when she found out that Ian was going to visit his father. “Are you going to visit him today?”
“Yeah. Sean called me earlier, and he said that there’s a visiting slot at noon. We should leave now if we’re going to
visit,” Ian explained.
Cindy knew what the company would want them to do—they would want her to go along with Ian. Therefore, she
was able to make a decision without considering the awkward tension between them. “You can go get changed, and
I’ll get changed here. We can go out after that.”
Ian walked out and shut the door to get changed in the washroom. He only had to wait for a while before Cindy
walked out of his room in a fresh set of clothes. Aurora could tell what they were about to do when she saw how

condition when you’re back,” Aurora ordered.
Initially, Cindy had felt rather nervous about visiting Ian’s father at the hospital. However, she cracked a laugh once
she heard what Aurora said. “Alright, alright. I’ll record a video of him and show it to you when I’m back.”
“Alright. That’s perfect. You know what? You should start recording from the moment you enter the ward, and you
should record the entire visit,” Aurora added.
Cindy responded in a serious manner. “Alright, I got it. Don’t worry!” With that said, she headed out with Ian.
Neither of them spoke to the other as they made their way down. It wasn’t just Cindy who was speechless—Ian was
also at a loss for words.
When they walked out of their building, Ian twisted his head to glance at the gazebo. Peter was no longer there.
That guy’s pretty hilarious. I can’t believe he confessed to Cindy after meeting her and playing badminton with her
a few times. How could love be so easy for him?
Cindy didn’t bother to look in the direction of the gazebo, and her eyes were fixed on the ground all the way as she
followed Ian to the parking lot. Ian drove them to the hospital. Although they didn’t talk along the way, the
atmosphere seemed less awkward than before.
