After an unknown amount of ti had passed, Julian Lancaster quickly took a shower and cleaned up Nina Sinclair. He laid Nina on the soft bed.
At this mont, the symptoms plaguing Nina’s body had eased. She lay quietly on the bed, but her delicate brows remained slightly furrowed, clearly showing she wasn’t sleeping very peacefully.
Julian Lancaster changed into a suit, regaining his composed and reserved deanor.
His eyes, filled with gentleness, looked at Nina Sinclair, for the first ti feeling slightly out of control.
Looks like Nina Sinclair was really bullied badly.
Whatever crossed his mind made the handso brows and eyes brim with a frightening fierceness, and his expression grew cold again.
Before going out, he glanced at Nina Sinclair, then closed the door and left.
Anyone who dares to touch his people should be prepared to face his wrath.
Louis Quinn and Sharon Lancaster were waiting inside a room, the two had grown bored and started playing poker.
Upon hearing the door open, they both looked up towards the doorway.
Julian Lancaster strode in, wearing a white shirt and black trousers, looking elegant and refined, though his hair was slightly damp, lending him a touch of lazy decadence.
Louis Quinn mumbled, "Three hours playing around, you sure can go the distance."
Julian Lancaster shot Louis Quinn a sidelong glance, making him obediently shut his mouth imdiately.
Indeed, more than once, because Nina Sinclair was too enticing.
If it weren’t for dealing with those few people, he wouldn’t have wanted to leave.
Louis Quinn cleared his throat lightly and said, "Are you now going to deal with those who sched against Miss Sinclair? I’ve already investigated. It’s your family’s driver’s daughter, seems she’s called..."
Sharon Lancaster’s face showed an angry expression, she clenched her fist, grinding her teeth, "Chloe Langley! Brother, that woman drugged Nina, then paid those two n to humiliate Nina."
"Heard she even planned for all the Veridia socialites to watch after things were done, making Nina’s reputation ruined, unable to mingle here. She’s really despicable!"
Thinking of what Chloe Langley did, Sharon Lancaster wished she could tear her to pieces. If not for waiting for her brother to handle it, she would have already dealt with that woman.
Daring to harm her sister-in-law is simply unforgivable!
"Bring her here," Julian Lancaster said in a deep voice.
In the banquet hall, suddenly a large group of black-clad bodyguards barged in, startling the present socialites who had no idea what was happening.
Once inside, they headed straight for Chloe Langley, rcilessly dragging her outside.
Heidi Leighton, hosting the gathering, saw these people looking like bandits trespassing and kidnapping soone in public, imdiately stepped forward to ask, "What’s happening? What are you doing?"
Chloe Langley was almost scared out of her wits.
Seeing Heidi Leighton, she hurriedly reached out to her, shouting, "Miss Leighton, save , quickly save ..."
"President Lancaster is handling matters, extraneous people clear the way!"
After those few words from the bodyguards, they forcefully escorted Chloe Langley away, the surrounding socialites were terrified, and no one dared step forward to block.
Upon hearing the words "President Lancaster," Heidi Leighton’s eyes grew serious.
In Veridia, Julian Lancaster’s na resounded like thunder, though few had seen his face, she had heard her father ntion Julian Lancaster.
Her father had t him while discussing business, and upon returning sang his praises endlessly, saying that Julian Lancaster was the most capable young man of the current generation, and perhaps the Lancaster Family’s future focus would be on him.
A young and exuberant man, wealthy and powerful, enough to capture won’s attention.
Heidi Leighton had long been curious about him, but unfortunately, there were almost no records left about Julian Lancaster.
She knew Goldenleaf Manor belonged to Julian Lancaster, yet did not know how Chloe Langley managed to provoke Julian Lancaster.
After collecting her thoughts, Heidi Leighton followed the bodyguards from earlier.
