Chapter 2015 Driver
Cindy didn't bring a change of clothes. Otherwise, she would've spent the night with him. Ian leaned against the
headboard and scrolled through his phone while Cindy sat on the edge of his bed. All of a sudden, she turned to
look at him as she recalled something. "By the way, I saw that Valerie came over in the afternoon. What was she
doing here?"
Valerie was the famous actress who was working with Ian—she had both the looks and the talent. When Valerie
arrived earlier, she greeted Cindy as Cindy was leaving. Ian was aware of that, so he wasn't surprised when Cindy
brought it up. "Both of us were in the same scene when I got injured. I was a little unluckier, but she was completely
safe. I guess she came to visit me as a kind gesture."
Cindy didn't suspect anything and merely nodded. "After seeing her in person today, I realized that she looks better
in person."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe smiled. "Is that so? I didn't realize anything. She looks the same as usual."
She pursed her lips. "Don't you think she looked especially pretty today?" Cindy had seen many of Valerie's red
carpet outfits in the past—she was often dressed in an elegant and classy manner. However, Cindy preferred it
when she was dressed in a more natural, daily look. It was more pleasing to see her dressed in casual and simple
outfits.
However, a man's aesthetic judgments may differ from a woman's. Ian considered Cindy's words for a moment.
When Valerie arrived earlier, she looked the same as she usually did, so he didn't pay any particular attention to her
dressing. "I guess she's okay. She's still her, regardless of how she dresses, right? She's not extremely pretty and
not extremely ugly, I guess," he muttered.
Cindy found herself speechless upon hearing this man's judgment of a woman's beauty. When it was about time to
leave, Cindy stood up and packed her bags. Ian's driver still hadn't returned, perhaps because he thought he would
give the couple more space and time to do whatever they wanted to.
Ian held Cindy's hand. "Why don't you stay here tonight?"
Cindy shook her head before speaking in a rather hesitant tone. "I didn't bring any of my items, so it would be
rather troublesome for me to stay. Why don't you get the driver to stay the night? If you want companionship, I'll
come tomorrow, okay?"
Ian pressed his lips together to form a rather dejected look on his face. "Okay, then. Text me when you're home."
Cindy was reluctant to leave him. She took two steps away from him before pausing and turning around. Then, she
leaned in to give him a peck on the cheek. Ian held onto the back of Cindy's head as he raised his head to give her
a firm kiss on the lips. No matter how much she didn't want to leave him, she still had to go after the kiss was over.
She raised her hand to pat him on the shoulder. "I'll come over to visit you tomorrow. Don't you dare fool around
with women in the hospital, okay?"
Ian let out a hearty laugh. "Do I look like I can do anything in this state?"
She let out a playful scoff before turning around to leave. To her surprise, a car drove up to her and pulled over the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmoment she walked out of the hospital. At first, she was a little surprised, but when she took a good look at the car,
she realized that it was Gary. He had been waiting outside the hospital.
"Get in." Gary repeated the same words to Cindy. This time, Cindy didn't bother to even contemplate his words and
just got in. "What are you doing here, Mr. Frye? Do you need anything?"
Gary didn't answer her and simply drove off. It wasn't as if Cindy was asking about some huge secret, so she felt
rather awkward since he had completely ignored her question. The atmosphere in the car was rather odd.
Gary drove all the way back to Cindy's residential area, where he dropped her off at the entrance. After Cindy got
out of the car, she couldn't help but look left and right to check if there was anyone secretly taking pictures of her.
However, there wasn't a single soul at this hour—even the vendors outside her residential area were gone.
Gary noticed the way Cindy was acting, and he was aware of her concerns. His eyes glinted as he swallowed the
words that he had intended to say. "Alright. Go on in. I'll leave now."
He drove off right after that, and Cindy let out a long sigh after he left. I didn't even get to thank him before he
disappeared. Once she got home, she showered before lying in bed and flipping through some recipes.
