Chapter 434: Chapter 434

Nina Sinclair looked at Joel Thatcher, asking with some concern, "Joel, are you alright? Maybe you should go change your clothes first, otherwise it would be bad if you caught a cold. After all, healers can’t heal themselves. What would happen if you got sick?"

What worried her more was that if Joel Thatcher fell ill, what would happen to her mother’s condition?

However, when this conversation was overheard by Julian Lancaster and Sharon Lancaster through surveillance, it took on a different meaning.

Sharon Lancaster touched her nose and said softly, "I didn’t expect Nina to care about this man so much. She saw him drenched and was afraid he’d get sick, immediately telling him to change clothes. It’s like you unintentionally helped the rival in love."

After speaking, Sharon Lancaster noticed Julian Lancaster’s cold gaze falling on her.

Realizing a bit late that she might have misspoken, she quickly giggled and obediently shut her mouth.

In the garden, Joel Thatcher and Nina Sinclair were still talking.

Joel Thatcher exclaimed angrily, "No! I haven’t finished what I was saying, I... I... Ahchoo!" Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on NovᴇlFɪre.ɴet

After he sneezed loudly, under Nina Sinclair’s concerned gaze, he could only grit his teeth and say fiercely, "Fine! I’ll go change my clothes, Nina, wait for me."

Later, he would expose that damn man’s true face!

After saying that, Joel Thatcher left with the waiter.

Nina Sinclair was just about to get up and leave when Julian Lancaster’s tall figure suddenly appeared before her, causing her heart to inexplicably panic when she saw him.

Julian Lancaster said he was going on a business trip, yet he appeared here...

So, did this mean that she really got deceived by her best friend and him working together?

Nina Sinclair pressed her lips together, not knowing what to say for a moment, her mind completely blank.

After a moment, she asked with difficulty, "Julian Lancaster... are you..."

Before Nina Sinclair could finish her sentence, Julian Lancaster interrupted her, his deep eyes calm, and said softly, "Nina, I’m sorry."

Hearing Julian Lancaster apologize, Nina Sinclair felt her heart sink to the bottom.

So he had been deceiving her all along.

Nina Sinclair’s face turned deathly pale, feeling very confused, not knowing how to react or how to face Julian Lancaster from now on.

However, before she could speak, Julian Lancaster continued, "I accompanied President Lancaster on a business trip to Crestfall, not expecting him to hold such a grand birthday party for Grandpa and Grandma."

What did Julian Lancaster just say?

This unexpected twist left Nina Sinclair stunned, her eyes wide open, showing a look of disbelief.

Julian Lancaster’s words revealed several important pieces of information: he came with President Lancaster! And he wasn’t that President Lancaster!

Nina Sinclair swallowed back everything she was about to say.

Just now, everything indicated he was that President Lancaster, and Nina Sinclair also thought so. But now, Julian Lancaster suddenly saying this left her very surprised, feeling that things seemed to have exceeded her expectations.

Julian Lancaster had just seen through surveillance, the expression on Nina Sinclair’s face when she learned of his identity. It seemed now wasn’t the best time to reveal the truth.

He could only choose to continue hiding it from Nina Sinclair, maybe until she had no grievances against him, he could tell her openly about this matter.

Julian Lancaster thought it was quite amusing.

Since birth, he had been born with a silver spoon in his mouth, able to get whatever he wanted, yet he had never felt so unsure, and all his life’s uncertainties revolved around Nina Sinclair.

Because he was afraid she would hate him, he didn’t even dare to tell her the truth.

After a long while, Nina Sinclair finally snapped out of it.

She was still somewhat skeptical, murmuring, "President Lancaster held a birthday banquet for your grandparents? Why is he being so kind-hearted?"
