Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 1946

But Cindy continued talking. “Miss Warhol takes really good care of me. When we had lunch together earlier, she told me that I could go to her if I had any problems.” Ian knew of Serena—she was one of the designers who had received awards. Although she seemed more easy-going than Yulia, she also appeared to be rather haughty.

Ian sighed silently. I’m already surprised to hear that Cindy is working with Serena, but if she’s saying that Serena’s taking especially good care of her, then… This is concerning. However, Ian couldn’t be too direct with Cindy, so all he did was nod before pulling her into his arms and giving her a pat on the back.

They hadn’t had their dinner, so Cindy went to prepare a meal in the kitchen while Ian returned to his room. He hesitated for a moment as he held his phone. The door wasn’t shut tight, so he could hear cooking sounds from the kitchen. After waiting for a while more, Ian decided to make the call. He was calling Gary.

Gary had just gotten off work, and he picked his phone up after it rang a few times. Since they hadn’t contacted one another before, Gary didn’t have Ian’s phone number saved in his contacts. “Hello. Who’s this?” Gary’s voice sounded rather stern.

“Hello, Mr. Frye. It’s me, Ian.”


The man on the other end of the line paused for a moment before greeting Ian. “Is anything the matter, Mr. Morgan?” he asked.

Ian pressed his lips together tightly and glanced at his bedroom door for a moment. Cindy was still busy cooking. “I’d like to thank you for something, Mr. Frye.” Ian took a deep breath. “It seems like you’ve put in a good word for Cindy’s job. Thank you so much.”

Gary wasn’t surprised that Ian found out about this matter. He had no intention of hiding it in the first place. “It’s no big deal,” he uttered with a laugh. This might’ve been no big deal to Gary, but it had certainly helped Cindy a lot.

“Do let us buy you a meal when you’re free, Mr. Frye. It may be a small matter to you, but we’re genuinely thankful for this,” Ian replied.

“You don’t need to do that. It’s really nothing.” Gary sounded amused. No matter how much Gary claimed it was a small matter, Ian simply couldn’t agree with him. “When will you be free for a meal? We have to do something for you in return.”

Gary hesitated for a moment. “You might have to wait for a while more. I’m rather busy nowadays as I have a lot of things to deal with.”

Ian’s schedule was packed too. He had an ongoing film project, and he didn’t know what time he would get off work on most days. “Okay. Let me know when you’re free, and I’ll book the restaurant, Mr. Frye.” Both men no longer continued the conversation after that. They weren’t very well-acquainted with one another, so they didn’t have much to say.
