CHAPTER 621: CHAPTER 621: THE LANCASTER AND SINCLAIR FAMILIES’ FEUD

"Let’s talk about it when we get back."

Julian Lancaster left with Nina Sinclair.

Felix Ford drove up, and Julian and Nina got in the car. Soon, the vehicle left the Sinclair Family villa.

Once they had left, Nina couldn’t hold back any longer. Earlier, Byron Sinclair had sent her away, and she didn’t know what he had talked about with Julian; they had been speaking for a long time without coming out.

When they finally emerged, Julian’s expression looked somewhat grim.

How could she not suspect that Byron might have said something to Julian, causing him to look that way?

"Julian, can you tell me now? What did my father say to you earlier?"

Julian’s handsome face darkened, and he didn’t speak.

After a moment, he said, "Nothing at all, just asked me to take good care of you."

He was lying.

In fact, Byron had said quite a lot.

The scene from earlier flashed in Julian’s mind.

Byron had sat on the sofa, his face heavy as he asked, "Do you know about Nina’s mother’s situation?"

"No, I don’t."

Byron suddenly smiled sadly and said, "I guess you don’t, otherwise you wouldn’t be with Nina."

"When I went to Veridia and knew you were Nina’s man, I opposed you being together. The reason is nothing else but because of what happened to Nina’s mother back then..."

Byron’s expression became more solemn, and then he said, "When I was young, I accidentally betrayed Nina’s mother, and our relationship changed. I didn’t come home often, and Nina’s mother became despondent as a result. It was then that someone appeared..."

After pausing for a moment, Byron looked up at Julian and slowly said, "That someone was Caleb Lancaster."

Julian’s always steady expression suddenly sunk, his handsome face becoming tense.

Caleb Lancaster was his fourth uncle!

Julian knew what happened next even without Byron continuing.

They had been together, and during one outing, both encountered a car accident. Later, Caleb became a vegetable, and Nina’s mother became a vegetable as well.

Afterward, his grandfather lost his temper and was very angry. He believed Caleb’s accident was entirely caused by that woman, and when speaking to his grandmother about it, it seemed as though he wished she would pay for it with her life.

Julian knew Caleb had gotten into trouble with a woman, and the Lancaster Family never spoke about it, leaving no clues. Gradually, it was forgotten.

Unexpectedly, that woman turned out to be Nina’s mother!

No wonder, for so many years, the Lancaster and Sinclair Families, both notable families in Crestfall, never had any contact. The reason turned out to be this.

Old Master Lancaster originally disliked Nina, and Julian knew how much Elder Lancaster hated the woman who harmed Claire Lancaster. Now that woman was Nina’s mother, with these two layers of relationship combined, can they still continue?

Julian’s recollection was interrupted, and he tightly gripped the steering wheel.

He didn’t want to part with Nina. If this matter was what stood between them, he would rather Nina never find out.

Julian kept a usual expression, suppressing all emotions deep within. He smiled and said, "What’s wrong? Are you that worried about what your father might do to me?"

"Of course, he told me weird things before, who knows if he’ll do it again."

At that time, Byron told her not to be with Julian.

Julian replied nonchalantly, "No, he didn’t say anything."

Nina showed a look of doubt.

She didn’t know why, but her subconscious always felt Julian was lying. Yet now that Julian was unwilling to tell her, pressing further would be useless—she could only remain curious in her heart.

Suddenly, Julian’s phone rang.
