Flirting Mistake: I Married My Ex's Billionaire Uncle Overnight
Chapter 679: Nina Sinclair Is Not Fit to Be the Lancaster Family’s Daughter-in-Law
CHAPTER 679: CHAPTER 679: NINA SINCLAIR IS NOT FIT TO BE THE LANCASTER FAMILY’S DAUGHTER-IN-LAW
The night deepened, and the Lancaster Family’s estate became increasingly lively.
Luxury cars lined up at the entrance, stopping and starting, bringing many guests of distinguished status.
The status of the Lancasters in Crestfall needs no further explanation. Many people had their eyes on the Lancasters, with Julian Lancaster being the most captivating of them all. After all, he was Old Master Lancaster’s most cherished grandson, and it was rumored that the future of the Lancaster estate might be handed over to him.
Previously, Julian had been in Veridia, maintaining a very low profile, so many had heard of him but not seen him.
Today, at Old Madam Lancaster’s birthday banquet, Old Master Lancaster introduced him to the guests. It was only then that people had a true impression of him. After seeing the talented and handsome Julian, many families with daughters of marriageable age began scheming.
To become in-laws with the Lancasters would ensure unrivaled success in Crestfall.
Julian had appeared once at Nina Sinclair’s grandfather’s birthday banquet, but Old Master Lancaster quickly suppressed the news after finding out.
At the last birthday banquet, it was announced that Julian was not single, but now, there was no girl by his side. In their circle, having a girlfriend was usual, but marrying into the family was the real skill.
Therefore, in everyone’s eyes, Julian was a prime bachelor.
Many people became increasingly enthusiastic, continually cozying up to Old Master Lancaster, trying to leave a good impression.
Julian was led by Old Master Lancaster to mingle with the guests, but his mind was elsewhere.
Nina Sinclair’s phone was turned off, and Sharon Lancaster had just gone to find her, but there was no word yet on how that turned out.
...
Heidi Leighton and Justin Leighton were also present at the banquet. Heidi had always had Julian in mind, and since today was Old Madam Lancaster’s birthday banquet, she naturally did her best to flatter her.
She followed closely beside Old Madam Lancaster, complimenting warmly, "Old Madam, may you have blessings as boundless as the Eastern Sea and remain forever youthful."
After speaking, she handed over the meticulously prepared gift she held.
Old Madam Lancaster wasn’t particularly warm toward Heidi Leighton. Although Nina Sinclair’s mother was involved in an incident with her own son, Old Madam Lancaster still preferred Nina somewhat, especially since Nina was now pregnant.
Unfortunately, Old Master Lancaster wasn’t very satisfied with Nina Sinclair, so Old Madam Lancaster had to go along with him.
She nodded, taking Heidi Leighton’s gift and passing it to a servant beside her, responding, "Miss Leighton is very thoughtful."
Heidi was unaware of the current state between Nina Sinclair and Julian Lancaster. Earlier, Monica Lancaster hadn’t mentioned much about Nina, leaving Heidi in the dark about the Lancasters’ current attitude toward Nina.
With these thoughts, she leaned closer to Old Madam Lancaster, whispering, "Old Madam, a woman like Nina Sinclair is probably not suited to be a daughter-in-law of the Lancasters. In an environment like today, if she were here, she might be so nervous she wouldn’t know what to do."
Saying this, Heidi confidently straightened her chest and smiled faintly, "I’ve been handling big occasions like this for my family since I was young and have quite the experience..."
Heidi intended to use this opportunity to showcase her qualities to Old Madam Lancaster.
A woman like Nina Sinclair could never be better than her.
She had full confidence in her status to overshadow that woman, Nina Sinclair!
