Chapter 767: Chapter 767
Nina Sinclair returned to her apartment.
At this time, Julian Lancaster should not be back yet. She could only wait for him at home, suspecting any noise outside might be Julian returning, and would immediately get up to check.
Unfortunately, several times it wasn’t Julian, leaving her feeling quite embarrassed.
Waiting wasn’t a solution; what if he didn’t come back tonight? What if he had to work overtime?
Nina held her phone, hesitating whether to call him. But if Julian was busy now, would it be inappropriate to call him out of the blue?
While she was deeply conflicted, there was another noise outside.
She immediately put down the phone and opened the door.
This time it was truly Julian returning!
Nina looked at him with an excited face and said, "Julian, you’re back."
Julian saw Nina open the door and run to meet him, like a wife waiting for her husband to return.
His eyes flickered slightly, then he revealed a faint smile, and asked softly, "Were you waiting for me?"
"Uh..." Nina suddenly felt a bit too excited.
It’s because she had been disappointed so many times before that seeing him now made her so excited.
"I have something I want to ask you, are you available now?"
"You can talk to me anytime."
Hearing Julian’s affectionate tone, Nina felt a sense of realization, as if they hadn’t fought yet, and were still as they used to be.
"Shall we go to your place?" Julian asked.
Nina quickly nodded, "Alright."
She opened the door to let Julian in. Five minutes later, they were sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Julian gazed deeply at Nina, not speaking immediately, as if waiting for her to speak first.
Nina poured a cup of tea for Julian, sitting on the opposite side of him.
She looked at Julian and directly asked, "Julian, I want to ask you, do you know the person in charge of H Investments, President Lennox?"
Julian raised his eyebrows at her words, he roughly knew that Nina had found out about his help.
He smiled and said, "He’s a friend of mine."
"So you asked him to invest in my brand, right?"
Having gotten Julian’s affirmative answer, Nina felt a complex mix of emotions, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"You have the ability but struggle to find investment, and I merely recommended you to Simon Lennox. Whether he wants to invest is his decision." Julian softly comforted her, "You shouldn’t feel any burden."
Nina pressed her lips together, still feeling somewhat uneasy.
But at the time, President Lennox’s attitude towards her was too polite, completely unlike what Julian had described.
She always thought that since they had no relationship now, she shouldn’t accept his help in various ways. He had no obligation to help her.
Now Julian himself is facing difficulties, if he asks someone for help, it might incur a considerable favor debt. Latest content published on novel⸺fire.net
However, Julian had already intervened, and she had signed a contract with President Lennox, it would seem petty to say more now.
Nina looked gratefully at Julian and said, "I don’t know how to thank you."
Julian gently curled his lips into a smile and said, "If you don’t know how to thank me..."
His voice paused, and Nina’s mood became anxious.
She feared Julian might say something she found difficult to accept, yet there was a faint expectation in her heart.
Her emotions were very complex for a moment.
Julian saw Nina’s cautious and worried demeanor, smiled and said, "If you really want to thank me, then cook me a meal. I haven’t had your cooking for a long time."
Haven’t had your cooking for a long time.
When Nina heard this, she recalled the days back in Veridia, when she still didn’t know Julian’s identity, they also had sweet times.
Her eyes reddened, almost ready to cry.
How did Julian and she end up ?
