Chapter 439: Chapter 439

Afterwards, Uncle Ming said in all seriousness, "Young Master Julian and that young lady are currently developing their relationship, so it’s inappropriate to reveal too much for now, to avoid affecting their relationship. However, if there’s a joyous event in the Lancaster Family in the future, you will be invited to participate. Please be patient and wait."

Disappointment appeared on the faces of everyone present. Some people had been waiting to hear which family ended up with Julian Lancaster.

Some were even thinking that if possible, they would seize the opportunity to ingratiate themselves.

Unexpectedly, there was no answer at all.

Old Master Lancaster finally understood what had gone wrong!

Uncle Ming had actually double-crossed him and did not announce the marriage alliance between the Lancaster and Leighton families as he had intended. Instead, he declared that Julian Lancaster was not single, which was to stop others from considering marrying their daughters into the Lancaster Family!

Heidi Leighton and her father’s faces were even more difficult to look at and angry, feeling that they had been played by the Lancaster Family.

Wasn’t it agreed that the news of their marriage alliance would be announced at today’s birthday banquet? Now saying this, isn’t it just making them slap their own faces?

Justin Leighton had earlier been confidently chatting and laughing with those around him in the role of Julian Lancaster’s father-in-law, with many people currying favor. Now, upon hearing this news, everything he did earlier seemed like a joke!

Old Master Lancaster had clearly guaranteed it to him!

"Uncle Ming!" Old Master Lancaster was so angry that he couldn’t speak and couldn’t stop himself from trembling.

The Leighton father and daughter saw Old Master Lancaster’s face turn ashen with anger, and their anger was somewhat alleviated. Perhaps Old Master didn’t know about this matter either, could it have been arranged by Julian Lancaster?

Seeing Old Master Lancaster’s angry and disappointed look, Uncle Ming felt even more guilty.

He had been doing things for Old Master Lancaster for so many years, always loyal and adhering to his duties. It was difficult for him to help Julian Lancaster this time as he also felt that he had betrayed Old Master Lancaster. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on ɴoᴠel Fɪre.nᴇt

It was all because of his worthless son; if not for him...

His son worked at the Lancaster Group’s company and was previously framed, resulting in a mistake and being fired.

After a lifetime of working diligently and painstakingly, if Old Master Lancaster retires in the future, and with Julian Lancaster taking over, his son might not have any future prospects.

Old Master Lancaster verbally said he didn’t care about Julian Lancaster, but having followed him for so many years, Uncle Ming knew he was harsh with words but soft at heart.

In the future, it truly could be Julian Lancaster’s world in the Lancaster Family, and Julian promised to give his son a chance.

Thinking of this, Uncle Ming felt that all his sacrifices were worth it!

He walked over to Old Master Lancaster’s side and whispered, "Master, I’m sorry, I had no other choice, I hope you don’t blame me. Even if you want me to resign today, I would accept it."

"Ugh..." Old Master Lancaster was so angry that he rolled his eyes and completely fainted.

Everyone around was shocked and rushed forward to surround him. Old Madam Lancaster hurriedly supported him, "Old man, how are you? Quickly wake up!"

The surroundings were in chaos, with someone remembering that Joel Thatcher was here, and quickly went to seek his help, while others helped lay Old Master Lancaster flat.

"Doctor! Quickly, get the doctor."

"Is there any instant heart-saving pills?"

"Put the old master down first."

Julian Lancaster also hurried forward to check on Old Master Lancaster’s condition.

He had thought that going against Old Master Lancaster’s wishes would at most just make him angry. He hadn’t expected it would provoke such an illness.

He felt somewhat guilty, but saying anything else now was meaningless. Quickly attending to Old Master Lancaster was the pressing matter.

Nina Sinclair had not heard what Old Master Lancaster and Uncle Ming said but only saw that as Uncle Ming approached, Old Master Lancaster coincidentally fell ill and fainted, and then Uncle Ming supported him.

She looked at Old Master Lancaster with some concern, afraid that something unexpected might happen to him, "Julian Lancaster, your grandfather he..."

Julian Lancaster said gravely, "Don’t worry, I will immediately take him to the hospital."
