The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 1919

Chapter 1919 Rejection

As long as he was unmarried, then she would still have a chance. Yulia was surprised when Hannah called her

earlier. She didn’t want Hannah to know that she liked Ian. Hannah was Ian’s manager after all, and if Hannah knew

about her thoughts, it’d affect her relationship with Hannah.

As expected, Hannah was angry after knowing what happened, especially when she found out that Yulia was trying

to work together with all the crew members from famous shows to ruin Ian’s career. They didn’t argue during the

call, but the talk didn’t go well.

Yulia said she never planned on hurting Ian, but Hannah didn’t buy it. Yulia could understand why. She didn’t know

what the director told Ian, but it wouldn’t have been good. Yulia didn’t ask the director though, since he was just

trying to help. Not to mention she did say that Ian kept rejecting her after she gave him resources.

Everyone in the industry had a short temper, and rejection was enough to trigger an argument. The director must

have tried to help her, but what happened after that was a problem for Yulia. She knew an apology wouldn’t be

enough to settle it. Yulia remained in her car and pursed her lips for a while, then she looked at Ian again. “I don’t

know what Felix said to you, but that was not my intention. I would never hurt you.”

Ian didn’t care about that. He thought it was a good thing that this matter was brought to attention, as it gave him a

reason to tell her to stay away from him. Thanks to that, Ian looked calm, or to be precise, he was cold. “It’s fine. I

don’t mind.”

Yulia had nothing to say to that. She had come as fast as she could to tell Ian that she wouldn’t hurt him even if she

couldn’t get him. However, his response told her that he didn’t care about her no matter what she had in mind.

Yulia took a deep breath. “It’s fine if you don’t care, but I’m still going to make things clear. Yes, I have a short

temper, and yes, I can be petty, but I would never do this to you. Felix must have misunderstood me. I’ll clear things

up with them.”

Ian only looked at her in silence.

Yulia didn’t like the look he was giving her. It was alien and distant. When they first met at the photoshoot, Ian was

polite with her. She had kept in touch with him after that, and he was always gentle. Yulia still couldn’t understand

why and when they got distant. She had tried to get closer to him, but the gap widened instead.

Cars kept going in and out of the neighborhood, and the residents were out and about as well. Ian stopped for a

moment, then he took a few steps back. I’ll be going back if you have nothing else to say. There’s a lot of people

here, and it’s going to be bad for my rep if they see me talking to you.”

What? Why does he care so much about what they think? Yulia was getting angry. “Why? We’re just chatting for a

bit. How’s that going to affect your reputation?”

Ian replied coolly, “I don’t care what they think, but my girlfriend will get upset if she hears about this, and I care

about her opinion.”

Yulia laughed, but it was a self-deprecating one. “Fine, I get it. You’re one good boyfriend, Ian.” She rolled the

window up and drove away.

Ian went back to his neighborhood. Yulia looked at him in the rear-view mirror, and she pursed her lips, but the look

on her face kept changing.
