"Hmm? What’s the issue?" Nina Sinclair glanced up at Sharon Lancaster.
"It’s just... are you still not over Vincent Lancaster?"
With that, Julian Lancaster also looked towards Nina Sinclair, wanting to know if she still had feelings for Vincent Lancaster.
Without any hesitation, Nina Sinclair said, "Why would I still have feelings for a piece of trash? Is something wrong with your brain?"
Sharon Lancaster clapped her hands and laughed, "Exactly, why would anyone pine for such a jerk? The world is so big, why hang yourself on one tree?"
Louis Quinn was quite pleased with Sharon Lancaster’s words and thought it was great for her to think that way.
He quietly flashed a smile; having broken up with the ’Phoenix Man,’ it was time for Sharon Lancaster to look at other trees, like the handsome and strong one right beside her.
Nina Sinclair was grilling food and didn’t think much as she responded, "Yeah, the forest is huge, and there are better options waiting for me. Even if I have someone else I like, I wouldn’t go back to my old flame."
Someone else she likes...
This statement seemed loaded with information.
Sharon Lancaster looked wary, immediately straightening up to inquire further, "Nina, you don’t actually have a crush on someone, do you? Who is it?"
Nina Sinclair opened her mouth, about to speak, but immediately realized something.
She almost let it slip; the person concerned sat right next to her. If she really said it out loud, they’d all die laughing.
Plus, Julian Lancaster already had Miss Xander, so if she said it, it might trouble him. Thankfully, her mind turned quickly.
Nina Sinclair let out an awkward chuckle, "Not yet..."
Upon hearing this, Julian Lancaster’s expression turned a bit sullen.
Nina Sinclair was really just using him to spite Vincent Lancaster, without a hint of affection for him.
Hearing Nina Sinclair’s stammering, Sharon Lancaster thought similarly to Julian, believing Nina definitely had someone she liked in her heart.
It might even be her brother!
Sharon Lancaster chuckled mischievously and pressed further, "Come on, Nina, there’s no outsider here. You’ve known me long enough, don’t you think I can tell what you’re up to?"
Nina Sinclair didn’t expect Sharon Lancaster to see through her and laughed awkwardly.
"Come on, confess! Who’s that man in your heart?"
Hearing Sharon Lancaster’s words, Nina Sinclair glanced sideways at Julian Lancaster, a smile tugging at her lips, "He’s... a really good man, very handsome, and considerate, a thousand times better than Vincent Lancaster..."
Hearing Nina Sinclair’s description, Sharon Lancaster was so amused that she covered her mouth.
She hadn’t expected her brother’s image to be so grand in Nina Sinclair’s eyes; it seemed like her brother knew how to leave a good impression, and Nina Sinclair thought highly of him.
But before Sharon Lancaster could be pleased for long, Nina Sinclair’s tone shifted, whispering, "Unfortunately, he already has a girlfriend, and we aren’t meant to be."
After saying this, she forced a smile, looking despondent. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ɴovᴇl(F)ɪre.ɴet
Even though she’d convinced herself to let go, that deep reluctance began to surface again.
No matter. She would relax and enjoy her days with Julian Lancaster, treating it as a final farewell to him.
Sharon Lancaster was stunned, wait a minute... why did she feel something was off?
Nina Sinclair’s previous words seemed to imply her secret crush wasn’t her brother?
But her brother didn’t have a girlfriend!
Could it be that there’s another ’white moonlight’ hidden in Nina Sinclair’s heart that they were unaware of?
She made an oversight by not noticing this earlier.
Sharon Lancaster’s expression immediately changed, and she wanted to probe further. However, Nina Sinclair seemed afraid of more questions and quickly handed the grilled skewers to Sharon Lancaster, using food to block her mouth.
