The man's true intentions were revealed at the end of the day, and they were nothing good.
Cindy found the man's request completely hilarious and absurd, and she sputtered before Aurora could
even protest belligerently. The man must have extremely thick skin to be able to make such outrageous
demands with a straight face.
Aurora was gritting her teeth as she snapped, "The nerve of you. We went Dutch for the most of our
relationship, and you know as well as I do which person paid more than the other. Have you forgotten
that I paid for the larger expenses as compared to the pittance you claim to have spent on me?"
The man could not argue with this, but he was determined to pin non-existent responsibilities on her
anyway. "I don't care. I did spend money on you, and you're not short of money right now, are you?
Give me some of it and I'll leave you alone. Heck, I'll even sign a note to promise to never show up in
front of you ever again. If not, then you can bet that I'll come back again tomorrow if I don't get what I
want today."
Ian crossed his arms as he stood to the side and let out a bark of incredulous laughter. He fished out
his phone and drawled, "You know what? You can keep that bet to yourself. I'm calling the police to
come and settle this. After all, a man like you will never appeal to sense and logic."
If there weren't others standing in the room with them at the moment, Ian would have punched the
man. He wondered how Aurora could've dated a piece of trash like this man and how anyone could be
so shameless as to make such ridiculous demands.
The man was not intimidated at all. In fact, he seemed to have come prepared as he squared his
shoulders and challenged by saying, "Go ahead and call the police. If word of this breaks out, it won't
be my reputation going down the drain; I'm just a commoner that no one knows, and image doesn't
concern me at all. The both of you, on the other hand, might have a pretty hard time making a
comeback if your reputation is trashed after this."
Cindy frowned when she heard this, and she glanced over at Ian for a brief second, only to see that he
was looking at her too.
They exchanged a knowing look before breaking eye contact.
Ian said nothing, but he did not proceed to call the police either.
As though confident that he had the upper hand, the man told the security guards standing to the side,
"We do not need your service here. Just go back to your booth and leave it to us to settle this matter."
The security guards wanted to grab him and drag him out the door, for they didn't seem too pleased by
his demands either. However, Cindy quickly interjected and said, "I'm sorry for troubling you to come up
here, but why don't you guys go back to the booth? We'll see if we can sort this out in private, and if
there really is a need for your help, we'll give you a call." She then added, "If we can't settle this by the
end of this evening, this guy will only come back tomorrow and make trouble for you again. We'll try our
best to solve this and get him to leave us alone for good."
The security guards frowned, and one of them said to Cindy, "We'll be right downstairs if you need us.
Just give us a call."
She thanked them profusely, and it was only then that the security guards left.
When the door closed behind them, the man's true colors were revealed, no-holds-barred.
He stood up and planted his hands on his hips. Then, he looked at Aurora as he said, "Well, if we're not
going to beat around the bush, I'll just come right out and say that I've already looked into you and your
son. He's filming for a new TV show, and it seems like you have a role in it too. The both of you must
have made some good money off the show by now, and if I were to come up with a scandalous gossip
or two, I reckon that I could do some damage to your reputation. However, I'll keep quiet if you give me
some money, and you can carry on making good money without my interference. Now, doesn't that
sound like a win-win situation?"
Ian scoffed and countered, "How is that a win-win situation and why should I give you the money?
Heaven knows how long it has been since you and my mom broke up, and you even went on to start a
new life with someone else. Do you find that woman not obliging enough? Are you trying to come back
to force my mom into giving you a chunk of her payout? You over-simplify things."
The man chuckled maliciously. "Let's just say that it's not my fault your mom's famous and I happen to
be an opportunist." He truly embodied shamelessness as he went on to say, "When we broke up, I
thought that was the end of it. However, who would've thought that you'd get paid so much so quickly?
Naturally, I wouldn't be willing to let go of a cash cow like you, and I figured that if we could just meet
amicably, you might take pity on my hardship and give me some money to help me out. I was pivoting
my plans on your guilty conscience."
