Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 1768

Ian was asking about her family matters, and he was hinting at a visit sooner or later.

Cindy didn’t want to talk about her family, but since Ian had asked, she didn’t think it’d be great to hide it, so she said, “I have my mom and brother at home. My brother’s still in school, and he needs me to pay for it, but he should be done in a couple of years or so.”

Ian was surprised she didn’t bring her father up, but he could guess why, so he kept quiet about it.

After a short moment of silence, she smiled. “Let’s not talk about this. I don’t really want to talk about my family. It’s not something great, really. I don’t like to talk about it.”

I guess everyone has their own battles, huh? Ian could understand her, and he grunted. “I won’t bring it up again. As long as we’re fine, then everything is fine.”


Sean called Ian the next morning, telling him that Bryce was not looking good. He also asked if Ian wanted to come to the hospital. Bryce was feeling unwell because of what happened the day before. Ian saw no point in going, since it would be a quiet visit, and he wouldn’t even be cheering Bryce up, making it even more pointless. Ian said he didn’t want to go, and he asked Sean if Bryce was fine.

Sean sighed. “He would have been, but what happened yesterday got on his nerves, and he’s furious. Now, he’s looking off.”

Ian paused for a moment. “It’s been years. He should know the kind of people they are by this point, so why did he even get angry?”

Sean shrugged. “That’s what I told him, but it was useless. The thing has gotten out of hand, and now everyone knows. He’s embarrassed about it.”

Ian felt like laughing. Bryce used to break a lot of traditions and law when he was younger, and most of them were far more egregious than what Leah did. He didn’t care about his reputation back then, but now he thinks he can salvage it? Too late. I guess that’s just how humans are. They keep excusing their own wrongdoings, but they will punish everyone else for doing the same things they did. In some ways, Bryce and Leah made a great couple.

Sean didn’t force Ian to come, but before he hung up, Ian asked, “I heard he talked to his lawyer again yesterday.”

Sean told him honestly, “Yes, but not about the will. It’s about the divorce this time.”
