Chapter 622: Old Master Lancaster Already Knows
CHAPTER 622: CHAPTER 622: OLD MASTER LANCASTER ALREADY KNOWS
He pulled out the phone and took a glance; it was Old Master Lancaster calling, and Julian Lancaster’s heart sank even lower.
What must come will always come.
He swiped to answer, "Grandfather."
"Return to the Lancaster Family immediately," Old Master Lancaster said without any excess words, and he hung up the phone immediately after saying this.
But Julian Lancaster’s mood plummeted to the bottom.
His attendance at the Sinclair Family’s birthday banquet today would inevitably be caught by the reporters. Although he didn’t often show his face, some people didn’t know his identity, but if someone wanted to investigate, it’s possible they could find out.
He wanted to use the journalists to announce that Nina Sinclair was the Sinclair family’s darling, so that his grandfather would no longer oppose Nina Sinclair.
Yet he completely didn’t anticipate that the Sinclair Family and Lancaster Family would have such a connection.
It seems his grandfather might already know about his presence at the Sinclair family’s banquet; even if he wanted to hide it, there’s no way.
Julian Lancaster’s expression became even more serious.
But in front of Nina Sinclair, he still didn’t show it, just responding lightly, "Hmm, I understand."
Then he hung up the phone.
Although Julian Lancaster didn’t show anything, Nina Sinclair had been watching him intently, clearly able to see his subtle expressions; he wasn’t too happy about the call.
Nina Sinclair stared at Julian Lancaster, wanting to speak but stopping before she could.
Uncertain about how to ask, she just had an uneasy feeling.
Julian Lancaster, seeing Nina Sinclair’s little expression, tried hard to suppress the unease in his heart and said softly, "My grandfather wants me to return to the Lancaster Family; there’s some issue to resolve. I’ll ask Felix Ford to take you back, okay?"
"This..." Nina Sinclair hesitated for a moment, "It shouldn’t be anything big, right?"
"Hmm, don’t worry."
Nina Sinclair quickly put her mind at ease, knowing Grandfather Lancaster didn’t like her much, so she couldn’t go along. Even though she felt uneasy about Julian Lancaster being alone, she had no choice.
The car arrived at Julian Lancaster’s house in Crestfall, and Nina Sinclair got out of the vehicle.
Inside the car, only Julian Lancaster and Felix Ford remained. Julian Lancaster leaned back in the rear seat, pinching his aching brow.
Things were truly too tricky. Originally, he’d planned to quickly think of a solution, but now his grandfather knew in advance, leaving him unprepared. He could only take things one step at a time, attend to his grandfather, and decide later.
He raised his gaze and said to Felix Ford, "To the Lancaster Family."
In the night, the car sped along, with streetlights shining on its body, reflecting a smooth, flowing contour.
Half an hour later, the car reached the Lancaster Family house, and Julian Lancaster opened the car door and got out, walking steadily toward the living room.
At this moment, the Lancaster Family’s living room was brightly lit, with Old Master Lancaster and Old Madam Lancaster sitting together inside.
Their faces were grave and serious, looking like a storm was about to break. All the servants nearby were cautious and dared not make any noise, while Uncle Ming sighed helplessly behind Old Master Lancaster.
Today was the Sinclair family’s birthday banquet, originally not a big deal.
But the media suddenly revealed that the Sinclair and Lancaster families were reconciling; their presence at the Sinclair family’s banquet caught Old Master Lancaster’s attention.
He thought it was some ignorant, ungrateful descendant trying to cozy up to the Sinclair Family, planning to call them over for a harsh lesson.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Julian Lancaster!
