Chapter 383: Chapter 383

At this moment, Nina Sinclair was in the process of restoring Rebecca Lowell’s manuscript when she unexpectedly received a call from Old Madam Lancaster. Hearing the phone ring, she answered it without much thought.

"Hello, may I ask who’s calling?"

Upon hearing the caller directly address her by name, Nina Sinclair furrowed her brow in confusion, full of doubt about the identity of the person on the other end.

She glanced at the phone; it was an unfamiliar number, and the voice was also unfamiliar.

Nina Sinclair spoke with a hint of caution, "Who are you? Do you need something from me?"

"I am Julian’s grandmother."

Upon hearing Old Madam Lancaster reveal her identity, Nina Sinclair was both startled and apprehensive, left speechless for a while.

Julian Lancaster’s grandmother?

Just how many relatives does he have!

First a sister appeared, followed by his parents, then his aunt, and now his grandmother...

Could there be even more relatives coming up?

She recalled Julian Lancaster once mentioned that his family was large.

Although she didn’t know why Julian Lancaster’s grandmother was looking for her, whether it was similar to Julian’s aunt, she considered Julian’s grandmother an elder and decided to be polite.

Nina Sinclair suppressed her surprise and asked respectfully, "May I ask why you are calling?"

Old Madam Lancaster said, "Julian’s grandfather has fallen ill, and he wishes to see you. Could you spare some time to come by?"

She did not reveal the reason for the birthday banquet to Nina Sinclair, fearing that if Nina knew, she might not dare to come.

Old Madam Lancaster planned to trick her into coming the day before the banquet, so she could see her first before speaking.

When Elder Lancaster had someone investigate Nina Sinclair, Old Madam Lancaster learned about her and knew that Nina was still unaware of Julian Lancaster’s identity. So when Elder Lancaster opposed Nina Sinclair, she held an opposing view.

She believed a girl who did not mind the family’s situation must have good character.

However, everything needed to be discussed after meeting Nina Sinclair.

"Ah? Fallen ill?" Nina Sinclair was surprised and asked, "Does Julian know about this? Has he visited him?"

"Ah! It’s a long story..." Old Madam Lancaster sighed heavily and then started to briefly talk about the argument between the two and their strained relationship.

After hearing this, Nina Sinclair felt that regardless of the reason for their argument, Julian Lancaster should not avoid visiting his gravely ill grandfather.

She comforted her, "Don’t worry, I will try to persuade him."

"No way!" Old Madam Lancaster immediately stopped her. She said, "Julian’s grandfather is as stubborn as Julian. If their misunderstanding is not resolved, knowing I’m contacting you will definitely make him very angry, and if you tell him, his condition might worsen."

If Julian Lancaster found out, her plan to meet Nina Sinclair would be ruined, as Julian would surely protect her and not let her meet him.

Upon hearing this, Nina Sinclair bit her lip lightly.

If that’s the case, she indeed couldn’t tell Julian to prevent his grandfather’s condition from worsening. So, what should she do now?

"So... Miss Sinclair, his grandfather is really not doing well recently. Could you spare some time to meet him so he can feel at ease? If it’s not possible, it doesn’t matter, after all, we’re not that important, sigh..."

Old Madam Lancaster sighed as if Elder Lancaster was on the brink of death and wished to see Nina Sinclair one last time before he passed away.

Only fear that if the vigorous Elder Lancaster heard these words, he would jump up in disbelief.
