Chapter 284: Chapter 284

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Lancaster didn’t quite believe that Nina Sinclair would say such a thing.

She hurriedly patted Chloe Langley’s hand and said, "How could it be? Nina shouldn’t be like that. Perhaps you misunderstood?"

"But..." Chloe still wanted to say something.

Suddenly, Nina let out a cold laugh.

Her eyes slightly cold, she looked at Chloe and said, "Since you insist that I don’t like you, then perhaps I don’t. But you got one thing right—you really don’t know how to get along with people. It seems you need to learn a bit about being a person."

Originally, Chloe thought Nina would hold back from speaking.

Unexpectedly, she directly retorted, and wasn’t that basically saying she didn’t know how to behave?

At this point, Chloe was so angry that her face turned pale.

The thing that infuriated her the most was that she thought Nina’s rejoinder would definitely make Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster view her as ill-mannered, but unexpectedly, neither reacted.

Mrs. Lancaster, on the contrary, laughed and said, "Chloe, Nina’s character is indeed like..."

She initially intended to mention Sharon’s name, but realizing it was inappropriate, she paused and quickly changed her words, "Indeed like Julian said—straightforward and sincere!"

Chloe was so angry that she clenched her hand tightly but dared not retaliate.

Mrs. Lancaster didn’t notice her abnormality; she smiled and asked, "Chloe, don’t you think so too?"

Upon hearing Mrs. Lancaster’s words, Chloe had no choice but to force a smile and say, "Yes..."

In the end, Chloe neither made Mrs. Lancaster dislike Nina nor provoked Nina, instead leaving herself angry with nowhere to vent.

As the time came for Nina to leave, she stood up to say goodbye to Mrs. Lancaster, with Julian Lancaster stepping forward to hold her hand as they left.

Watching their figures disappear from sight, Chloe gritted her teeth in hatred.

After Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster left the Langley Family to return to The Lancaster Residence, Old Li and Aunt Li came back, and Aunt Li couldn’t help but pull Chloe aside to inquire about today’s happenings.

The two entered the room, avoiding Old Li.

"Chloe, how did it go? Did Mrs. Lancaster praise you? Surely that woman couldn’t compare to you?"

Upon hearing this, Chloe proudly lifted her chin and huffed, "Of course! She may look decent, but her education and other aspects aren’t much better than mine."

Aunt Li immediately chuckled happily and quickly said, "Then once they divorce, you must seize the opportunity."

Thinking of Julian Lancaster she met today, Chloe showed a look of admiration. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on NovᴇlFɪre.ɴet

Julian, as a child, had delicate and noble features, very handsome, and when grown, he was even more the embodiment of male charm as she had imagined, his status and power adding to his allure and capturing her heart.

Back in school, she, being outstanding, always had many boys pursuing her, but she never glanced at them, aiming to return to Julian’s side.

"Mom, that woman seems determined to cling to Brother Julian!"

Chloe said indignantly, "But it’s okay, I’ll take care of her, just wait for my good news."

"Now what I need to do is elevate my worth, so I can match Brother Julian. Nina Sinclair is certainly not worth my attention!"

Tomorrow there’s a gathering of the elite in Veridia. Upon learning of it, she has put considerable thought into leveraging her status as the Lancaster family’s daughter to attend.

Anyway, with Sharon in Crestfall, for now, she’s the Lancaster Miss of Veridia!

Chloe began to fantasize, imagining successfully entering the high society circle, thereby elevating her status.

Aunt Li saw Chloe’s confident look and couldn’t stop smiling.

It wasn’t in vain cultivating her; the future of their entire family would depend on this daughter!
