Heidi Leighton never expected Nina Sinclair to be so shaless. She had intended to mock Nina’s status, but quickly found herself speechless, her face darkening with anger.
Nina Sinclair didn’t bother saying anything more to Heidi and took a step to leave.
Heidi watched Nina’s back, secretly gritting her teeth. Well, Old Master Lancaster didn’t like Nina, so she would use her status to win Julian Lancaster over!
Nina got into Julian Lancaster’s car.
After the previous events, Julian no longer hid his true circumstances. He drove in his luxury car.
To give Nina so ti to ntally prepare, he didn’t let Felix Ford drive; instead, he personally picked and dropped off Nina, intending to subtly get her accustod to this.
The luxury car weaved through the streets like a shooting star. Nina sat in the passenger seat, looking at the car, feeling a surge of emotions, montarily unsure of what to say.
Julian glanced at Nina.
He asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Upon hearing his voice, Nina quickly ca to her senses and responded discontentedly, "Heidi is the woman your grandfather arranged for you. She’s always been coveting you. Just now, she even ca to warn , trying to stifle with her status!"
In truth, Nina didn’t want to throw a tantrum, but the thought of encountering Heidi earlier, and the fact that she’d keep appearing before her, made her feel extrely upset.
Even though Julian had no issues with her, any woman would be unhappy with a woman eyeing her man all day.
Just last night, Nina had said she’d make Old Lancaster happy.
She felt her current back-and-forth wasn’t ideal, but she couldn’t control her emotions at all.
Nina didn’t actually want Julian to do anything. She was confident she could compete with Heidi, but she just hoped she wouldn’t have to stay at Zenith.
After all, Heidi had the Leighton Family backing her. If not for Julian, why would she co to Zenith?
Even if Julian ignored her, seeing her around every day causing trouble was quite irritating.
Nina hesitated for a mont and asked, "Julian, can you make Heidi leave?"
After saying this, she looked at Julian eagerly, "I will continue to compete with her, just don’t let her stay inside Zenith."
The car slowly drove into the Lancaster Family’s grounds, and Julian parked in the garage.
Neither of them got out. After a mont of silence, Julian sighed and said, "Nina, I know you don’t like Heidi, but for now, it’s probably too difficult to make her leave. I’ll have her leave later; can you endure for a bit longer?"
Julian had his considerations.
He trusted in Nina’s ability to handle the situation. If she won against Heidi this ti, he could have Heidi leave Zenith without issue. But not yet.
Their competition was ongoing; if he acted rashly, his grandfather might react adversely.
Julian could tell Old Master Lancaster was already sowhat softening. If they pushed a bit more, he might agree to Nina’s matters.
He hoped Nina could enter Old Master Lancaster’s sights, rather than remain in Veridia forever.
Seeing Julian hesitate, Nina fell silent.
She didn’t have as much insight into Old Master Lancaster as Julian did, but she felt his hesitation ant he wasn’t willing to get rid of Heidi, and a sense of frustration rose in her heart.
"Why can’t it be now? Do you have so feelings for her?"
Apart from that, Nina couldn’t think of any other reason.
Julian sighed helplessly, "Nina, don’t let your imagination run wild. If I really had any feelings for Heidi, what would that an for you? Just don’t overthink it, okay?"
Nina felt suffocated with anger. She wasn’t overthinking!
