In a house on the outskirts of Veridia, Jas Aldridge was being held captive here.
Not only was his freedom restricted, but even his phone was being monitored.
Ever since Jas Aldridge realized Julian Lancaster was President Lancaster, he had long lost his temper and didn’t dare to resist; he wished he could kill Sierra Sinclair, the woman who ruined him.
Only by obeying now could he preserve his own life.
He just didn’t know what Julian Lancaster ultimately wanted him to do.
Jas Aldridge looked towards Felix Ford next to him, pitifully, "Assistant Ford, I did what you said. Could you say a few good words for in front of President Lancaster? It was that woman who seduced , I was just montarily bewitched."
Felix Ford glanced at him coldly and snorted, "You crossed the line. President Lancaster hasn’t cooled down yet; how you perform next will determine your fate."
...
Inside the Zenith Group office.
Sierra Sinclair was a bit restless, feeling extrely anxious.
She reached out to touch her abdon.
The engagent date was drawing closer and closer, yet her stomach wasn’t cooperating, as she still hadn’t beco pregnant. She really feared that one day the truth would slip out.
And then there’s Jas Aldridge...
She had already instructed him to deal with Nina Sinclair, but no news had co from Jas Aldridge, and she had no idea what the situation was.
At that mont, after separating from Yvette Thompson, Vincent Lancaster imdiately went to the office to find Sierra Sinclair.
Seeing Vincent Lancaster entering with a frown, Sierra Sinclair quickly suppressed her thoughts and ca to her senses. She stood up, approached him, and gently expressed concern, "Vincent, why do you look so down? Did sothing happen?"
"Sierra, my mom is urging to et my future father-in-law sooner. When will you take to see him? If he’s unavailable, we could go to Crestfall as well."
Hearing this, Sierra Sinclair was stunned, her body stiffened, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.
Quickly, she suppressed her emotions.
"Vincent, didn’t I ntion? I had a falling-out with Dad, and our relationship is currently not great. Let’s wait until our engagent; I’ll send him an invitation then, and that will serve as an excuse to reconcile."
She had delayed so many tis; this ti, the excuse couldn’t be too casual, or it might provoke Vincent Lancaster’s dissatisfaction. If she didn’t have the perfect wording, it might invite suspicion.
So she decided not to defer any longer and simply proposed to invite Byron Sinclair to the engagent banquet, finding a way to handle them when the ti ca.
Hearing Sierra Sinclair’s words, Vincent Lancaster’s gloomy expression eased a lot.
Although he was part of the Lancaster Family, his status within it wasn’t significant, or else he wouldn’t have needed to cling to Julian Lancaster’s support.
Now, having Byron Sinclair as a father-in-law would definitely allow him to soar, perhaps even catch the old man’s eye, surpass Julian Lancaster, and beco the future heir of the Lancaster Family.
Vincent Lancaster was already fantasizing about a glorious future.
His tone softened, speaking gently, "You make a good point; hurry and send the invitation."
"Alright, I also want to ease relations with Dad. Don’t worry," Sierra Sinclair said, clinging to Vincent Lancaster’s arm coyly.
Suddenly, Vincent Lancaster asked, "Do you know what’s going on with Nina Sinclair lately?"
"Why? Why do you ask?" Sierra Sinclair was surprised.
Hearing Vincent Lancaster voluntarily ask about Nina Sinclair’s situation, a bad premonition rose in Sierra Sinclair’s heart, and she imdiately beca wary.
"Nina Sinclair ca by just now; she said she’s married now."
Vincent Lancaster recalled Nina Sinclair saying she was already married and ntioned her husband was better than him. Although he didn’t believe her words, his masculine pride was piqued, leaving him a bit unsatisfied.
