Julian Lancaster looked at Nina Sinclair and asked, "Why are you here instead of resting at ho? Zenith hasn’t bought insurance for you."
His words implied that if Nina had an accident, there would be no compensation.
Upon hearing this, Nina felt a little wronged.
Sullenly, she said, "It’s all because of Yvette Thompson. She said if I didn’t complete her order on ti, she’d make my life miserable, so I ca over to shut her up."
Who would have thought she’d bump into Vincent Lancaster, that confident and arrogant man? Truly unlucky.
Recalling what he had said earlier, Nina still felt a bit disgusted.
Seeing her troubled expression, Julian’s heart softened, and he said gently, "Go back and rest; I’ll take care of your leave."
Nina nodded, "Got it."
Suddenly, she rembered Vincent’s insistence on knowing who her boyfriend was and curiously asked, "Do you often drive President Lancaster to Zenith?"
Julian raised an eyebrow, "Why?"
"Earlier, Vincent said he wanted to see you; you can’t reveal your ace before their engagent party, so if we bump into each other at Zenith, let’s pretend we don’t know each other."
After all, she planned to bring Julian to Vincent’s engagent party for a bit of a show, and Vincent mustn’t discover him.
"Enough said, Vincent might see us together at any mont. I’m leaving first."
Nina waved her good hand and quickly turned to leave.
Julian actually wanted to say that Vincent had just gone upstairs to find him, so he wouldn’t be coming down to see them, but Nina’s figure had already disappeared. He thought for a mont and took the elevator upstairs.
The elevator doors opened, and Julian walked out.
Felix Ford imdiately approached, asking ingratiatingly, "President Lancaster, she didn’t suspect anything, did she?"
Julian glanced at him coolly, "No."
Felix patted his chest, "Thankfully, my mind is sharp, and my acting skills are decent."
"Is Jas Aldridge’s matter taken care of?"
Hearing Julian’s question, Felix imdiately responded, "It’s arranged as per your instructions. Also..." He hesitated before saying, "Vincent Lancaster wants to see you and is waiting in the conference room."
At the ntion of Vincent, Julian felt a little irritated.
Impatiently, he said, "I’m not eting him. Tell him I’m busy."
In the conference room, upon hearing that Julian was unavailable, Vincent’s face imdiately turned dark.
After Felix left, he slamd his notebook angrily on the table, his entire deanor agitated.
He had waited so long; every ti Julian said he was busy, Vincent wondered if he was being ssed around with on purpose!
Who does Julian think he is, just because he is favored by the old man?
Once he marries Sierra Sinclair and is acknowledged as the prospective son-in-law by the Sinclair Family, he’ll certainly gain favor with the old man, and won’t have to face Julian’s attitude anymore.
Furiously leaving, Vincent decided to focus his efforts on Sierra instead of wasting ti on Julian.
While Nina was still doodling, she suddenly saw so people make a grand entrance, one holding a huge bouquet of roses, with others arranging petals into a heart shape at the entrance of Zenith Group.
A crowd quickly gathered, envious voices rising one after another.
"Wow, is soone proposing?"
"So many roses, it looks so romantic."
"The girl being proposed to must feel so lucky. Who’s making such a grand gesture? It’s enough to make the single ones envious!"
Amidst the chatter, Sierra Sinclair ca down from the upper floor, clapping her hands over her mouth in surprise upon seeing the sea of roses, tears of joy welling up.
Vincent Lancaster walked out from the side, slowly approaching Sierra.
Standing firmly in front of her, Vincent took out a velvet box from his trouser pocket, opened it, and kneeled on one knee before Sierra.
