Nina Sinclair got into Julian Lancaster’s car, and the vehicle slowly started and smoothly drove down the road.
At this mont, Nina Sinclair curiously asked, "Julian Lancaster, where are you taking now?"
Earlier, during the phone call, he seed mysterious and didn’t tell her where they were headed. She had been holding back her curiosity and finally asked.
Julian Lancaster kept his eyes straight ahead, concentrating on driving.
Upon hearing Nina’s words, he replied in a deep voice, "We’re going to the Lancaster Family for dinner."
"Huh?" Nina Sinclair looked bewildered.
For so reason, the ntion of going to the Lancaster Family suddenly made her nervous. She had just discovered Julian Lancaster’s identity, and she had only just co to terms with the fact that he was the CEO of the Lancaster Group. Now, suddenly being brought to the Lancaster Family’s residence made her incredibly anxious.
Julian Lancaster curved his lips into a smile and said, "Today is a family gathering for the Lancasters."
Nina’s heart was a mix of emotions, and she didn’t know what to say for a mont.
Actually, Julian Lancaster’s intention was very clear: it was a family gathering of the Lancasters, and she was a mber of the Lancaster Family too, so he wanted to bring her along.
Even if Julian didn’t bring her back, it wouldn’t have mattered. She wouldn’t bla Julian since her relationship with Old Master Lancaster wasn’t very good, but he still chose to bring her back in this situation.
This ant he wanted to announce her identity to everyone and affirm her status.
A warm feeling surged in her heart, and Nina Sinclair turned to look at Julian Lancaster, her eyes shining brightly.
Julian naturally sensed her gaze and his Adam’s apple moved slightly as he said hoarsely, "Nina, if you keep looking at like that, I fear I won’t be able to resist pouncing on you."
Upon hearing Julian’s words, Nina’s cheeks flushed red.
It was the first ti he said sothing like this; little did she expect him to be so secretly mischievous.
"Is it okay for to go back to the Lancaster Family with you?" Nina was still a bit worried, afraid she might not be welcod.
Julian replied softly, "Don’t be afraid, I’m here."
Just that single sentence from Julian Lancaster soothed all of Nina Sinclair’s concerns. She felt that with this man by her side, no matter the obstacles ahead, she would definitely overco them.
The Lancaster Family had been part of Crestfall for a century. The estate was very large, taking almost ten minutes from the entrance to the main residence, not to ntion the carefully designed gardens and the man-made lake.
Nina Sinclair always thought the Sinclair Family mansion was luxurious enough, but the Lancaster Family was even more impressive.
No wonder Old Master Lancaster had his pride.
After getting out of the car, Nina and Julian Lancaster entered the Lancaster Family’s living room together. At this mont, the room was already filled with people, looking very lively, and Old Master Lancaster was seated in the central position.
When he saw Julian and Nina entering together, his eyes darkened slightly.
However, he still didn’t say anything and simply ignored Nina Sinclair.
Julian Lancaster held Nina Sinclair’s hand as they stepped forward and he called out, "Grandfather, we’re here."
Nina Sinclair nervously followed with a soft greeting, "Grandfather."
Old Master Lancaster lifted his eyes and cast a glance at the two, responding blandly, "Hmm."
Afterward, Julian Lancaster led Nina to sit down to one side.
Such family gatherings were not new to Nina Sinclair. When the Sinclair Family gathered, the number of people was almost the sa. After her initial nervousness, she sowhat relaxed.
Just at that mont, a voice suddenly rang out, "Is she the cousin-in-law?"
