Chapter 1712 That Person Cares for You

Cindy hadn’t fallen asleep just yet and she was merely resting in bed with her eyes shut. However, she couldn’t help

herself and her brows were furrowed into a thin line.

Cindy hadn’t fallen asleep just yet and she was merely resting in bed with her eyes shut. However, she couldn’t help

herself and her brows were furrowed into a thin line.

Ian walked toward the bed and leaned forward to look at her. “Do you have a headache? Do you want me to

massage your temples?”

Meanwhile, Cindy responded with a muffled voice, “That’s not necessary.”

Despite her refusal, he went ahead anyway and he reached out to massage her temples gently as he took a seat by

the bed.

Cindy could clearly tell that he wasn’t adept at giving a massage and his techniques were quite awkward, but it was

quite soothing indeed.

She had intended to show her integrity and fling his hand aside, but she ended up enjoying it so she considered it

for a moment before suppressing herself.

As for Ian, he spoke as he massaged her temple. “Did you have trouble sleeping last night? Was it because I was

too bothersome?” He had meant to ask whether he had hugged her too tightly by asking that question.

However, Cindy’s thoughts went to something else and she grunted an affirmative response. “You were quite loud

on the phone.”

Just then, he blinked his eyes in response. “I thought that you didn’t hear that. I actually purposely went out of the

room to answer the call.”

Oh—they spoke on the phone too! Cindy pressed her lips together and stopped replying. It looks like there were

quite a few things that I didn’t realize from last night. I wonder what they talked about last night. It must have been

quite sweet. Furthermore, they had so much to talk about. They continued to text each other even after hanging up

on the phone!

Meanwhile, Ian considered it for a moment before heaving a sigh. “Do you think that perhaps he was affected by

my harsh words from the other day so he developed a guilty conscience?” However, his guilty conscience was

reflected toward Sean and not me. Well, Sean should thank me for that, then.

Cindy was unsure of what Ian was going on about, so she lifted her head to look at him.

Ian was lost in his own thoughts so he didn’t explain himself and continued, “Is he pitiful though? I thought about

this question for quite some time yesterday. I don’t think you can consider him pitiful.”

As soon as Ian finished his sentence, he smacked his lips. “I’m honestly quite surprised to know that he reflected on

his past actions. He’s such a prideful man and he has always been conscious about maintaining a perfect front. Do

you know what could have caused him to apologize?” After Ian said that, he hesitated and then continued, “To be

honest, I would like to see the regretful expression on his face.”

Just then, Cindy blinked her eyes and she reckoned that she was right in her guess. Last night, the person who had

called and texted him must have been Yulia. Yulia’s such a prideful person and she cares about the way she is

portrayed in front of the public more than anything else. She has a fiery temper as well. It’s quite likely that she

would lay down her pride in front of solely Ian himself.

She snorted and despite her restrain, her tone of voice was slightly scornful. “I guess that’s true. That proves how

much the person cares for you.”

Ian paused for a moment because he couldn’t quite catch the meaning behind her words. “Cares for me?”

Meanwhile, Cindy could feel her temples pulsating and she no longer had the patience to continue this banter with

Ian. Hence, she retorted, “Yeah! If she doesn’t care about you, then why would she call you in the middle of the

night and admit her mistake? Everyone in the entertainment industry knows that Miss Noble has a fiery temper, so

you should be grateful for all that she’s done. I’ll have you know that you might end up with nothing if you don’t get

off your high horse.”

Just then, Ian stared intently at Cindy as his brows furrowed slightly. He was fairly certain that they were not on the

same page at the moment. Anyhow, ‘Miss Noble’ was completely unrelated to his topic.

However, Ian didn’t clarify things immediately but exclaimed in surprise, “Did you hear me on the phone last

night?”

How can that be possible?! Cindy was completely clueless and she had merely realized that he wasn’t in bed. She

had gone out to see him texting someone in the living room.

Just then, she shut her eyes. “Didn’t you take the call outside of the room? How could I possibly have heard it

then?”

Ian licked his lips and muttered softly, “Miss Noble?”

It was not necessary for Cindy to look at him to know that he must have a tender expression on his face at the

moment.

He’s such a scumbag! I can’t believe that he actually held me in his arms last night! How could he? Does he think

that just because we’re sleeping in the same bed, it would be quite normal to jump into each other’s arms?!
