Chapter 558: Chapter 558

At this time, Old Master Lancaster in faraway Crestfall was almost furious when he heard Julian Lancaster actually didn’t listen to him. After leaving a word, the call was directly hung up on him.

He clutched his chest, sitting on the sofa, gasping for air, his face as dark as if it could drip water.

Old Madam Lancaster quickly came forward to gently pat his back and help him breathe easier, then asked, "How is it? What did Julian say?"

"The brat said he’ll resolve this matter within three days." Old Master Lancaster said discontentedly, "And it’s actually from the Sinclair Group’s company. If this thing gets exposed, our Lancaster Group’s reputation would be entirely ruined!"

He was particularly concerned about the Sinclair Group, not wanting to lose face in front of them at all.

Old Madam Lancaster showed a doubtful expression, murmuring, "Could this be some misunderstanding? We don’t even know who sent that message. What if someone is intentionally misleading us?"

"Misunderstanding?" Old Master Lancaster sneered, saying, "I’ve already asked Uncle Ming to investigate at Zenith. The company over there indeed has rumors circulating about this, and not only that, quite a few people at Zenith have come forward to report it. With so many people stepping up, how could it be false? Could it be everyone has a grudge against Nina Sinclair to frame her?"

Old Madam Lancaster’s face grew heavy, and she no longer spoke.

In her heart, she still wished that the matter concerning Nina Sinclair was untrue, as she really liked Nina Sinclair and hoped she could become her granddaughter-in-law.

"Since Julian said three days, don’t rush either, let’s see how he deals with it first."

Old Madam Lancaster advised, "If you really push Julian, what if he breaks off relations like last time?"

Thinking of Julian Lancaster’s behavior last time, a large stone seemed lodged in Old Master Lancaster’s heart.

He snorted coldly, yet didn’t refute Old Madam Lancaster’s words.

However, the troublesome matters were not limited to Old Master Lancaster’s end.

Mr. Lancaster and Mrs. Lancaster also received this anonymous information, and although they didn’t immediately believe the content inside the message,

as the situation developed, with the shifts in the wind at Zenith, they went from initial skepticism to suspicion, eventually deciding to ask Nina Sinclair to clarify. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ ɴo(v)elFɪre.ɴet

They didn’t go to question Nina Sinclair but because they feared Julian Lancaster had, for the first time, fallen for a girl and was even willing to sever ties with the Lancaster Family for her, but if she had such a past, they feared Old Master Lancaster’s wrath might injure Julian.

As parents, they also hoped for their son’s well-being.

They soon found themselves inside Nina Sinclair’s office.

Upon seeing Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster, Nina Sinclair’s heart sank instantly as she had already guessed their purpose for coming.

She invited the two into her office.

While Millie Langley was serving tea for them, she secretly glanced at the couple who had put Nina Sinclair on high alert.

They were dressed in impeccably elegant clothes, exuding an air of effortless grace and nobility, and she didn’t know who they were.

It was then that Nina Sinclair spoke first, saying, "Dad, Mom, I know you’ve come because of my matters..."

Millie Langley suddenly realized, so these were the parents.

Though she hadn’t heard Nina Sinclair mention her own parents before, perhaps they were her parents-in-law, this kind of thing is truly disadvantageous for a girl; who wouldn’t care about a daughter-in-law’s past?
