After Old Master Lancaster left, Sharon Lancaster said to Nina Sinclair, "Nina, I’m sorry you had to go through this. Grandfather hasn’t been able to accept you yet, so for now, it’ll have to be this way. Let’s go down together."
Nina Sinclair didn’t feel aggrieved at all. She smiled gently and said, "You don’t need to be so tense; don’t start fighting because of ."
"I was thinking of slacking off, but now I have to go down and engage in socializing."
Even before, when she was with Julian Lancaster, she already knew what difficulties would arise, so she was ntally prepared for this.
Sharon Lancaster heard the ease in Nina Sinclair’s voice and thought she was simply too good-hearted.
No wonder she’s my sister-in-law!
She would definitely strive to have her grandfather accept Nina Sinclair!
Sharon Lancaster looked at Julian Lancaster and said, "Brother, our goal now is to have Grandpa accept Nina. If you argue with him, then all our previous efforts will be in vain. Also, if things get too heated, Grandma won’t be happy, and that would be a loss we can’t afford..."
Julian Lancaster cald down after hearing Sharon Lancaster’s words.
He nodded and said, "Understood."
Because he couldn’t appear with Nina Sinclair, Julian Lancaster reassured her for a while. Finally, under Nina Sinclair’s urging, he turned and went downstairs.
...
In the banquet hall.
Earlier, Heidi Leighton noticed Julian Lancaster and Old Master Lancaster leaving one after the other, and seeing their gloomy expressions, she vaguely sensed that sothing significant had occurred.
Why did they both leave with such dark expressions?
While Heidi Leighton was puzzled, she saw Old Master Lancaster return, his expression just as stern as before.
Following him was Julian Lancaster, whose expression wasn’t as severe as before, making things even more puzzling as to what had happened.
While Heidi Leighton remained in doubt, she saw Nina Sinclair and Sharon Lancaster appear together in the banquet hall.
She stared blankly at Nina Sinclair for quite a while.
Originally, since she hadn’t seen Nina Sinclair today, she assud Nina was unable to enter the Lancaster Family. She felt quite smug about it, but unexpectedly, here she was!
What’s going on with Nina Sinclair now?
Heidi Leighton was extrely curious, and finally, she saw Monica Lancaster.
Her eyes shifted slightly, and she walked toward Monica Lancaster, asking, "Monica, how is Nina Sinclair here? With her status, how can she co to such a place? Aren’t Old Master Lancaster and Old Madam Lancaster afraid of losing face with the guests when they find out?"
Earlier, Monica Lancaster had a brief exchange with Heidi Leighton and knew this woman liked Julian Lancaster.
Moreover, Heidi Leighton wasn’t aware that Nina Sinclair was actually the daughter of the Sinclair Family.
Heidi Leighton still wanted to make an issue of Nina Sinclair’s identity.
A slight smirk of ridicule appeared in Monica Lancaster’s eyes; what a mindless fool!
Despite her disdain for Heidi Leighton, Monica Lancaster didn’t show it. She simply said blandly, "My cousin likes Nina Sinclair, and now, at Grandma’s birthday celebration, a significant event, of course, he wants her to be present."
Heidi Leighton nodded in sudden realization and said, "Then... isn’t Julian Lancaster going to acknowledge her identity later?"
She originally thought Nina Sinclair and Julian Lancaster were over, but unexpectedly, they were still together.
In such an important setting, if Julian Lancaster acknowledged Nina Sinclair’s identity, she’d have no chance anymore.
Monica Lancaster chuckled lightly, saying, "Miss Leighton, Nina Sinclair is certainly not up to your standard. My grandfather has always disapproved of her, so you actually have much more opportunity than she does. See, now she can only be by Sharon Lancaster’s side and isn’t with Julian Lancaster, which shows how Grandpa disapproves of her."
Hearing this, Heidi Leighton’s face bore a look of pride.
Nina Sinclair’s status wasn’t fit for public acknowledgnt; certainly, the two elders of the Lancaster Family were very displeased with her, which is why she could only follow Sharon Lancaster.
So Julian Lancaster wasn’t going to announce her identity.
With this, she could feel at ease!
