CHAPTER 619: CHAPTER 619: DO YOU STILL BLAME DAD NOW?

In the living room, Ruby Sinclair and Hazel Lennox sat with gloomy expressions.

Byron Sinclair had just called Nina Sinclair and Julian Lancaster into the study, and they hadn’t come out since. No one knew what he would say to her.

Ruby Sinclair felt that ever since Nina Sinclair returned, Byron Sinclair had been exceptionally close to her. She thought Byron still cared about Nina deep down. Earlier at the birthday banquet, coupled with Nina’s harsh defiance, she was almost furious to the point of exploding.

Just the thought of Nina soon returning to the Sinclair Group made her feel maddeningly murderous.

Meanwhile, inside the study.

Byron Sinclair was seated in a chair, pointing to the chairs in front of him, he said, "Sit down first."

The two both sat down in the chairs. Nina Sinclair looked at Byron and suddenly realized he seemed much older than before. Unnoticed by her, Byron had grown quite a few gray hairs, even at his temples.

He appeared to have aged.

Past memories came flooding back: her pestering Byron to buy things when she was little, his unconditional pampering, and his affair with Hazel Lennox. These complicated situations mixed together, making Nina Sinclair’s emotions extremely complex.

Nina Sinclair pressed her lips tightly without speaking.

Actually, when Byron Sinclair separated from her mother, Nina wasn’t particularly concerned. She was upset that Byron helped Hazel Lennox, and after her mother had a car accident, he stood by and did nothing.

This was also the reason why she worked hard alone to earn money back then.

Seeing Nina Sinclair, Byron also began reminiscing about the past. He took a deep breath and asked, "Nina, do you still blame Dad now?"

Nina Sinclair didn’t speak.

To say she didn’t blame would definitely be impossible, but her resentment towards Byron had significantly diminished.

At least she wasn’t as resentful as before when facing him, nor did she refuse to speak to him.

After a moment of silence, Nina Sinclair said, "Of course I blame you."

If Byron hadn’t had an affair back then, their family wouldn’t have fallen apart.

Perhaps sensing Nina’s low mood, Julian Lancaster reached out and pulled her into his embrace, gently patting her back.

Nina Sinclair seemed very reliant on Julian, smelling the familiar scent on him, she felt incredibly safe, and all her inner agitation vanished.

Byron saw the mutual trust between Nina and Julian, his expression darkened.

Initially, he wanted to tell Nina about something, but now suddenly changed his mind.

Precisely because his relationship with Nina’s mother was poor, he hoped Nina could find the happiness she desired, rather than suffering a lifetime like their generation.

Having thought it through, Byron said sternly, "Nina, you should leave now, I need to chat with him."

Nina hesitated for a moment.

Julian chuckled, "Don’t worry about me, I’ve met your father before."

Upon hearing this, Nina recalled that last time they met was at Vincent Lancaster’s wedding, back then Byron had already talked with Julian, so there shouldn’t be anything concerning now.

Calmed by Julian’s reassurance, Nina left the study.

Once the study door closed, leaving only Julian and Byron, Byron looked seriously at Julian and asked, "Do you know about Nina’s mother?"
