Originally, Julian Lancaster didn’t plan on telling anyone about his sche. Although sotis Sharon Lancaster ca up with bad ideas, she also had quite a few of her own insights.
He glanced at Sharon, and briefly outlined his plan.
Sharon listened and praised repeatedly, thinking that Julian’s idea was really great. She hadn’t expected that he was actually striving for the future of Nina Sinclair and himself; it seed she had wronged him before.
Unfortunately, Old Master Lancaster was too anxious, insisting on setting Julian up with a woman.
Sharon frowned, seemingly contemplating a strategy.
A mont later, her eyes lit up as if she had thought of a solution, she looked up at Julian excitedly and said, "Bro! Why don’t you pretend to be sick?"
Julian furrowed his brows in surprise, uncertain about what kind of sche she had this ti.
Sharon quickly leaned closer to Julian’s ear and whispered for quite a while.
She sneered, "My plan is definitely very effective. You know how much grandparents care about you; when the ti cos, won’t they have to compromise? They surely won’t force you into matchmaking anymore!"
Julian initially thought Sharon’s plan was sowhat childish, but upon careful consideration, perhaps it was Sharon’s kind of plan that could break the current impasse.
After a mont, he responded softly, "Hmm, got it."
Sharon patted Julian on the shoulder generously, "Alright then, we’ll go back to the Lancaster Family dinner tonight, and I’ll definitely help you well."
...
The Lancaster Estate.
Since there were guests visiting today, the Lancaster Family’s staff prepared quite a few good dishes to show respect for the guests.
Ellen Yates from the Yates Family had already arrived at the Lancaster house, and Old Master Lancaster was chatting with her. The atmosphere seed particularly harmonious, only Julian hadn’t returned yet.
As the sky darkened, Old Master Lancaster’s expression beca increasingly sour, like the weather.
He even suspected Sharon hadn’t called Julian back, fearing embarrassnt in front of the Yates Family. He wished he had made the phone call himself.
Just then, a car slowly drove through the Lancaster Family gates, stopping in the courtyard.
It was Julian’s regular car; Julian had returned!
Seeing Julian’s return, Old Master Lancaster’s stern face finally eased quite a bit.
Soon after, Julian and Sharon appeared in sight. Julian wore a tailored suit, looking tall and handso, his face showing no emotion, leaving his mood indecipherable.
Old Master Lancaster waved to Sharon, "Sharon, the young lady from the Yates Family is here, hurry over and greet her."
Suddenly being called upon, Sharon looked speechless, nearly rolling her eyes.
She wasn’t familiar with Ellen Yates at all, was she?
However, appearances still needed to be maintained, so Sharon decided to et this woman.
Sharon stepped over and sat next to Ellen, politely greeting, "Hello, Miss Yates."
Ellen Yates had never seen Sharon in the Crestfall socialite circle before; today was the first ti eting her. As Sharon approached, she slightly assessed her before raising a gentle smile, "Hello, Miss Lancaster, I’ve heard so much about you."
Old Master Lancaster suddenly inviting her over actually felt sowhat abrupt to Ellen.
After all, she wasn’t familiar with The Lancasters at all, but her father didn’t want to miss the opportunity to bond with the Lancaster Family, so he insisted she had to co.
Just now, Old Master Lancaster spoke to her a lot, and she finally understood the purpose of her visit.
Turns out the Lancaster Family wanted to find a woman for Julian!
On the day of Old Madam Lancaster’s birthday banquet, Ellen was also present; she witnessed the events involving Nina Sinclair and Heidi Leighton, leaving a deep impression of Nina.
So now she had doubts in her mind.
Logically, with Nina Sinclair’s status and ability, she should be highly matched with Julian, so why was the Lancaster Family suddenly trying to find a woman for Julian?
