CHAPTER 53: CHAPTER 53: PRESIDENT LANCASTER SEEMS REALLY UGLY

The elevator doors at Zenith Group opened, and several impeccably dressed men stepped out.

Earlier, Julian Lancaster saw Nina Sinclair at first glance, and it was too late for him to hide.

Nina Sinclair stood there, looking at them with wide eyes.

Julian’s gaze was sharp as he coldly swept over the assistant who had just spoken. The assistant didn’t even realize what he had done wrong, his face full of innocence, not daring to speak again.

At this point, another assistant reacted, immediately pulling the others away.

Nina Sinclair stretched her neck, watching the people leaving behind.

Until a tall and upright figure blocked her view, Nina Sinclair withdrew her gaze and looked up at Julian Lancaster standing in front of her.

His brows were furrowed, his face looking somewhat grim.

It seemed that the secret about his identity could no longer be kept, but it didn’t matter. He could renegotiate terms with Nina Sinclair and still maintain their relationship.

Julian Lancaster took a deep breath, "Nina Sinclair..."

Nina Sinclair asked in confusion, "Julian, Sharon is so good-looking, but that President Lancaster seems very ugly. Could it be a genetic mutation?"

"..."

After saying that, Nina Sinclair realized it wasn’t right to badmouth someone on their turf. She cleared her throat and laughed awkwardly, "I was just speaking casually, don’t tell him."

Julian Lancaster didn’t answer.

Nina Sinclair continued, "By the way, why are you here? Did you come to drop off that President Lancaster at the company today?"

As her words fell, Julian’s expression finally changed, and his brows furrowed tightly.

He finally understood what was wrong—Nina Sinclair hadn’t recognized him!

Did she think President Lancaster was the assistant from earlier?

Julian Lancaster asked carelessly, "Did you see President Lancaster just now?"

Nina Sinclair shook her head blankly, saying, "I couldn’t see clearly. I was going to take a closer look when you blocked me."

In reality, Julian’s presence was too overwhelming, drawing her attention to him at first sight, and the others were only seen afterward. As for the real Julian Lancaster, by the time she tried to see him clearly, it was too late.

Julian Lancaster relaxed his tense heart, a faint smile appearing on his lips, "I’ll let you see clearly next time."

Meanwhile, Felix Ford had just settled James Aldridge and returned to Zenith Group.

As soon as he entered, he saw the back of Julian Lancaster. Nina Sinclair’s figure was coincidentally blocked by him, prompting Felix to greet him, "Presi... cough cough cough..."

As Julian turned sideways and Felix caught sight of Nina Sinclair, he was nearly scared to death, swallowing the remaining "dent" back into his throat, his face flushed red.

Nina Sinclair widened her eyes in surprise, "It’s you!"

She looked at Felix, asking in confusion, "Aren’t you the one who delivered takeout?"

Beads of sweat appeared on Felix Ford’s forehead.

Darn it, he hadn’t expected to run into Nina Sinclair, so he pretended to be a takeaway delivery person. Now that Nina Sinclair had caught him, he was about to be exposed. What should he do?

Sweat broke out on Felix’s back, feeling like his job as a special assistant was in jeopardy.

In a moment of crisis, Felix whimpered, displaying a distressed look.

He sighed heavily, tears streaming down his face as he said, "Miss Sinclair, my family is incredibly poor. I have four seventy-year-old elders above and seven younger siblings below. Besides being an assistant, I also deliver takeout after work to supplement my family’s income..."

Nina Sinclair was taken aback, a sympathetic expression appearing on her face.

She had once had tough times herself and didn’t expect there still to be people in worse situations; he was truly inspirational.

"Everything will get better," Nina Sinclair comforted.

"Miss Sinclair, thank you!" Felix Ford was full of gratitude.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness, his job was finally safe!

Julian Lancaster watched as Nina Sinclair looked at Felix sympathetically, giving him a glance.

Felix understood immediately, quickly speaking, "President Lancaster has urgent matters to discuss with me, I’ll head up first. Goodbye, Miss Sinclair."

After speaking, he hurriedly took the elevator to escape the scene.
