Next One Is a Babe Chapter 1392

The internet was the best place for verbal assaults, as both Ian’s fans and those who were slandering

him were both relentless in their apprehension of the other party. Cindy had a softer personality, so she

wasn’t sure why people were able to spout such vile words online without considering its

consequences. However, she supposed they were pushovers in real life who could only find some

power by engaging in such activities online. In the end, she put her phone away, deciding that she

would ignore the matter altogether to save herself some anguish.

The sudden free time had Cindy feeling ill at ease. She had been working alongside Ian ever since his

debut. As long as he didn’t take time off, nor did she. They had been keeping themselves as busy as a

bee all this time, so she eventually got accustomed to the lifestyle in the process. However, the scandal

forced them to grind to a halt. While she wasn’t sure how Ian felt about it, she knew it didn’t sit well with

her.

She lay in bed for a moment, but got up after a while as she had a hard time staying still. After loitering

about in her room for a while, she checked on the web again, only to see that Hannah had yet to offer

the public any form of explanation. As long as they remained silent, the scandal would continue to

fester. To be honest, Cindy wasn’t sure what Hannah was up to, as she figured she would instantly

publish the recording she had if it were up to her. Now that things were festering and affecting Ian’s

reputation, Cindy could no longer remain as calm.

Mulling over the situation, she went over and knocked on Ian’s door, which he answered immediately.

He seemed to be at ease, seemingly enjoying the rare downtime. Cindy’s visit was within expectations,

so he let her into his room while asking, “What’s the matter? Do you have a hard time calming down?”

However, Cindy could hardly smile, as she wasn’t feeling as jovial as him. After closing the door behind

her, she questioned in a hushed voice, “Does the recording not suffice as proof? Why else would Ms.

Jones withhold from making it public?”

Turning around, Ian went and sat down on the sofa. “Don’t worry, since rushing things won’t help the

situation. We’ll just have to wait for a little longer.”

Cindy wasn’t feeling as unfazed as Ian. “Didn’t you see how people have been slandering you online?

You won’t have much of a reputation left if this keeps up.”

Lifting his head to glance at her, Ian figured that she was a young girl after all no matter how steadfast

she usually seemed, which was why she had a hard time keeping her cool. He drank some water out of

his bottle before explaining, “When it comes to such scandals, a major plot twist will make things more

interesting.”

With her mouth agape, Cindy hummed in confusion, but Ian wasn’t about to explain everything to her,

so he muttered, “Just stay still.”

Pondering on their circumstances, she settled down in Ian’s room instead of returning to hers. Without

work, they had nothing to say to each other. Although Cindy was waiting for Hannah’s phone call to

update them regarding their schedule, she ended up getting a call from her family. Checking on the

caller ID, she picked up before addressing the caller in a gentle tone. “Keith.”

The caller was her younger brother, who, after greeting Cindy, inquired about her recent situation.

“Mom told me you sent us some money, but do you have anything left for yourself? You already sent us

money twice this month.”

Pursing her lips, she inhaled deeply before putting on a cheerful front. “You don’t have to worry about

me, as I do have a job. Instead, you need to focus on your studies.”

Over the phone, Keith heaved a sigh. “I’m feeling uneasy that we’re constantly asking for money from

you.”

Meanwhile, Cindy chuckled before replying, “You shouldn’t be overthinking this, as it’s not your

responsibility to.”

Keith spoke after taking some time to calm himself down. “Actually, Mom has quite a lot of money at

her disposal, so you shouldn’t send her your money the next time she asks. You don’t need to worry

about us.”

Letting out a hum, Cindy didn’t want to say much while in Ian’s presence. “I understand that. Alright

now, take care of yourself. I’ll be hanging up since I’m busy.”

Keith hung up after bidding her goodbye, whereas Cindy’s expression dimmed while putting her phone

down.
