Chapter 1439

Cindy had her fingers wrapped tightly around Linda’s wrist—it didn’t look like she was being bullied by
Linda at all. Once Cindy saw Ian and Hannah walking in, she immediately pushed Linda aside before
taking two steps back. “Linda started scolding us because she was in a bad mood,” Cindy explained
while she fixed her hair.

while she fixed her hair.

Linda was one of the celebrities who worked under Hannah, so Hannah knew how bad Linda’s temper
was. In the past, Linda had offended a good number of investors because of her hot temper.
Furthermore, she had been heavily criticized on the Internet due to her recent inappropriate actions.

“What happened to your face?” Hannah turned her attention toward Linda’s assistant. The assistant
had tears in her eyes as she spoke in a meek tone. “It’s nothing. It’s no big deal.” Hannah immediately
understood that Linda was the one who had slapped her own assistant. Hannah had a rather stern
demeanor in the first place, so she looked even scarier when she twisted her face into a frown.

The aggressiveness Linda showed earlier had completely disappeared, and she kept her hands behind
her back while taking a few deep breaths. She looked rather self-conscious of her own actions. “Were
you about to continue hitting someone before we came in?” Hannah glared at Linda.

Ian hastily went over to Cindy. “You’re okay, right?”

“I didn’t allow her to succeed.” Cindy shook her head while speaking in a rather playful tone. Hannah
stole a glance at Cindy right then. She figured that she had to side with Cindy this time since Cindy



held some leverage over Ian. Hannah therefore let out a sneer as she turned to address Linda.
“Judging by your actions, it seems like you have no interest in improving your current situation. Since
you’re in such a bad mood, I think you should go home and get some rest. You will be on break for the
rest of this month.”

Linda froze for a moment before she widened her eyes. “Hannah, I…” A one-month break wasn’t good
news because it meant that Linda would have to survive an entire month without any work or income.
On top of that, Hannah’s icy demeanor was making Linda doubt that her break would last for only one
month. It feels like Hannah is preparing to turn me into one of those celebrities who eventually die out
after going on an indefinite hiatus.

Linda was terrified by Hannah’s words, and she immediately rushed toward Hannah. “Please don’t do
that, Hannah. I’m not in a bad mood. It was all a misunderstanding.”

Ian had an arm around Cindy’s shoulder, and he gave his driver a look without bothering to glance in
Linda’s direction. “Let’s go. The air here is really stuffy,” he muttered in a rather irritated tone. In other
words, Ian wasn’t interested in being involved in this matter and wanted Hannah to handle it on her
own.

Ian checked on Cindy after they left the lounge. “Are you okay? Linda didn’t bully you in any way, did
she?”

Cindy chuckled. “She’s not my employer, so I’d never let her bully me.”

Ian nodded, agreeing with Cindy. However, the driver still seemed rather annoyed as he spat on the
ground before making his comment. “She really thinks she’s special, huh? She even expected me to
stand up and greet her! How disgusting.”



Cindy walked over to pat the driver on his shoulder. “Forget it. We don’t have to care about her. I don’t
think things will turn out well for her either.” Linda had been receiving a good number of negative
comments in the past few months, and people in the company were already indirectly criticizing Linda’s
behaviors.

It seemed like Linda would actually have to take a one-month break. Although one month didn’t seem
like a lot, it had a huge impact on a celebrity’s career. The entertainment industry was a fast-moving
field, and Linda knew that she would lose her fame if she didn’t make any appearances for a month.

“Let’s head home now,” Ian uttered once he walked out of the company with Cindy and the driver.
Subsequently, Cindy received a timetable from Hannah, and she saw that Ian’s schedule was not really
full this month. In fact, it was only half the amount of his usual workload. However, it was good news—
the arrangements made more sense than before as it allowed Ian more time to rest. He had been too
exhausted in the past.

The driver sent Ian and Cindy home. That evening, Ian was supposed to have a meeting with a
production team. Hannah was the one who had accepted this job for him—it was a role in a city
romance drama. I really got what I wanted this time, huh? I just talked about acting in dramas a few
days ago, and I’ve got a role now! The city romance drama was one of the company’s larger projects,
so Ian wanted to rush home to do some last-minute studying of the book that the drama was based on.

After sending Cindy and Ian home, the driver excused himself and drove off. Ian returned to his room,
and Cindy cleaned the place up a little before she sat on the couch and watched some TV.
