Chapter 2027 Upon Reflection

Ian wasn't lying when he said that he hadn't spoken much to Yulia. He knew that Cindy would certainly feel rather offended because he hadn't told her about it. So, he no longer dared to hide it from her and decided to come clean. Cindy listened to his explanation attentively, and she gave his stomach a soft pinch after hearing what he said. "How should I deal with you if I find out that you're lying to me?"
He quickly reached over to pull her in for a hug. "I wouldn't dare to do that. You're so smart—I'm too scared to lie to you."
Cindy didn't press him since Aurora was beside them, so she decided to let him off the hook temporarily. Once it was time for them to board, they got onto the plane and found their seats. Aurora must have woken up a little too early, for she shut her eyes after settling into a comfortable position. Both Ian and Cindy were sitting next to each other while Aurora's seat was separated by an aisle. That way, Ian and Cindy could talk without having to worry too much.
