Chapter 1461 An Awkward Conversation
Lastly, Aurora held her teacup in both hands and said, “If I can make a comeback, everything I have will be yours. It
wasn’t just because he wanted to live an ordinary life that I split up with that lover of mine. Who wouldn’t want to
make money? But a couple that marries when they’re already halfway through life can never open their hearts to
each other. He has his own children, so he naturally has to consider their interests, but I don’t want to share what I
earn with outsiders. I’ve never given you anything since you were little, so how could I possibly give anything to
others? I can’t get over this.” Because of that, she’d rather sever all ties with her lover now while they were still
keeping separate finances than see both of them quarrel over money in the future.
Ian let out a sigh. “I don’t want anything from you. I’m not interested in any of your stuff.”
Aurora nodded with a smile. “It’s your business whether you want it or not, but whether or not I want to give it,
whether or not I can give it, and whether or not I have the ability to give it are some things that I should consider. I
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthave nothing to make it up to you, so I just want to try my best not to owe you money.” Since she had nowhere else
to go, she stayed in Ian’s place after having her meal.
Ian pondered for a moment before going to his room with his cell phone in his hand. It seemed that he was going to
pull some strings and find jobs for Aurora.
Now that Ian had left, Cindy certainly couldn’t go back to her room. Even if she had no other intentions, it would be
displeasing for her to leave Aurora alone here—after all, it would seem like she was giving her attitude. Besides, she
couldn’t go to her room in Aurora’s presence. Aurora was experienced when it came to relationships. If she saw
them sleeping in separate rooms, she would figure everything out at once. Therefore, she could only keep Aurora
company and sit at one side, but she had nothing to say.
Cindy and Aurora had nothing in common to talk about, so they naturally had nothing to chat about. Cindy wasn’t
chatty in the first place, so she would usually remain silent when she was around unfamiliar people. However,
Aurora spoke first after taking a look at her. “Young lady, I’ve read online before that you and Ian seem to have
been dating for a long time. How did you two get to know each other? When did you two start dating?”
Cindy couldn’t answer any of Aurora’s questions. She and Ian had never thought up answers to questions like ‘How
you got to know each other’ and ‘When you started dating,’ so she was really afraid to answer these questions for a
moment. She was worried that Aurora might ask Ian the same questions—their cover would be blown at once if
Ian’s answers differed from hers. Giving wrong answers to such basic questions would certainly prove that
something was fishy between her and Ian. Therefore, she could only reply with a smile, “Indeed, we’ve known each
other for a long time. He hadn’t made his debut in show business when we knew each other, and I’d never thought
that he would become a celebrity one day.” With that, she diverted the conversation in a subtle way.
Aurora stared at Cindy for a while, though no one knew if she had seen through the latter. After a while, she asked
again, “I merely read online that your family isn’t very well-off, but I didn’t notice how badly-off your family is. In
which city are your family residing now?”
She’s going to do a background check on me, huh? Cindy thought to herself. She was reluctant to talk about it,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthough. She and Ian weren’t dating for real, so why should she come clean about her background? She merely
compressed her lips into a smile without saying a word, and such an attitude showed that she didn’t want to answer
these questions.
Aurora looked at her with a snort. “Can’t you tell me about it? It seems that your family must be very badly off
then.”
Cindy’s expression remained unchanged. She has no right to check on it no matter whether my family is well off or
not, she thought to herself.
It took a long time before Ian came out with an expression that gave nothing away. Aurora hurriedly stood up and
asked, “How did it go? Did you find a job for me? I’m not choosy; I’m fine as long as I have a job right now.”
Ian frowned. “I have no jobs for commercial performances to recommend to you—that’s because I don’t accept job
offers to perform in commercial events for now. However, I have the script of a film in which I’ll be playing a role. I
can talk to the producer and ask him to let you play a role in the film.”
Aurora smiled at once. “Sure! No problem. No matter how insignificant the role is, I’ll be fine with it. I’m not choosy
about it as long as I get to show my face first.” She was quite aware of her standing in show business since she
knew she had no right to negotiate for now.
