Chapter 1546

Naomi was thumping her fist on her chest. “Why do they bully single people like me? When I was
working, I saw them showing off their relationship. After work, I have to look at you showing off. It
seems like I’m doomed!”

Cindy, however, refuted in a small voice, “Since when have I done that? You are making everything up
in your mind.”

In order to prevent Naomi from retaliating and continuing the pointless conversation, Cindy quickly
brought up the main topic and asked, “What time are you getting off work today? Do you want to have
dinner at my place?”

Naomi felt a little shy upon hearing that. “I can’t always have free food at your place. Wouldn’t that
affect your alone time with Ian? If I’m always at your place, I’m sure he will be annoyed with me.”

Cindy chuckled and reassured, “Don’t worry about it. His mother always comes over for dinner and we
don’t have much alone time to begin with. You are overthinking things.”

After a moment of hesitation, Naomi probably felt that being alone was rather boring, so she conceded,
“Alright, then. I’ll go over after work today.” Thereafter, she had something else to work on, so she hung
up quickly.

Cindy put the phone away and leaned against the chair. After hesitating for a while, she sent Ian a
message. It was nothing serious. She told him that she was out and asked when he would return. She
was just worried that he might not see her when he came back.

Even though she didn’t know if he would get anxious if he did not see her, it was an assistant’s



responsibility to report things like these to him. However, Ian did not reply to her, so she wondered if he
missed her message because he was busy.

When he did not reply, she just thought that he was still busy with his matters, so she got up and
walked out of the neighborhood. Without him around, no one took notice of her.

In the end, she walked to the nearest mall to look at the latest fashion. She graduated from fashion
design, so she was more inclined to this area.

Cindy kept thinking that after she had gained financial independence, she wanted to go back to her old
profession. After all, she had spent so much time and effort on that, and she did not want to throw it all
down the drain. Hence, she was very sure that one day, she would like to return to the fashion design
industry.

Her attention solely focused on fashion, Cindy soon forgot the passing of time. She walked around the
entire mall and looked at different designs, while the sky became darker outside.

By the time she returned to her senses, it was already evening. Hence, she quickly took out her phone,
but she did not receive any calls or messages. Has Ian not seen my message till now?

In the end, she quickly took a cab home. When she reached home, she found that he still had not
returned. In fact, the entire house was empty. Then, she walked to his room and took a peek inside. It
seemed that indeed he had not returned, because it looked exactly the same before she left.

Since she had already asked Naomi over, she still prepared dinner after a moment of hesitation. It was
that she got lost in her thoughts when she was making the preparations. After all, Ian was away all
afternoon and he did not even check in with her.



Logically speaking and based on common courtesy, he should have told her by now if he was coming
home or not, be it through phone call or messaging. Hence, Cindy had no idea what had gotten into
him this time. This had never happened before.

After working on dinner for a while, everything was almost ready. Just at this moment, Naomi called
her. Cindy then asked her friend to come to her place directly, and Naomi asked jokingly if everyone
was already here.

After thinking about it, the former said, “Ian has some business at the company, so I’m not sure if he
will be home on time. If not, we will start dinner first.”

Naomi did not think too much into it and she hung up after agreeing.

In between cooking, Cindy had some free time. In the end, she could not help herself and picked up
her phone to call Ian. She was worried that he might not see her messages even if she sent any. It was
more convenient to directly call him. However, he did not pick up the phone when she rang the first
time.

Cindy frowned, wondering if something had happened to him. After all, he had not replied to any of her
messages nor did he pick up her calls for the entire afternoon. It was quite out of character for him, to
say the least.
