The bodyguards at the door recognized him and didn’t dare stop him; Julian Lancaster forcefully barged in, followed by his assistant, Felix Ford.
Penelope Lancaster didn’t expect that she would find this place so quickly; she had prepared this villa specifically to talk with Nina Sinclair.
Julian Lancaster carried a chilling aura as he entered, his eyes scanning the room as if searching for Nina Sinclair.
Penelope Lancaster suppressed all her thoughts.
She raised her gaze to look at Julian Lancaster, curling her lips into a faint smile and said, "Julian, are you looking for Miss Sinclair? She just left earlier."
Julian Lancaster remained silent, stepped forward, and stood in front of Penelope Lancaster.
Penelope Lancaster indeed exuded the aura of a strong woman, but before Julian Lancaster, she seemed somewhat less confident.
This scion of the Lancaster Family appeared stronger and more formidable than her.
Julian Lancaster looked down at her, "Did Grandpa send you?"
He guessed the reason behind Penelope Lancaster’s appearance in Veridia and her seeking out Nina Sinclair almost without any doubt.
Penelope Lancaster’s expression showed little change; she merely smiled lightly and said, "Julian, Father is quite concerned about your life. Knowing you’re quite busy lately, he sent me to assist you."
The implication was that the old man was very dissatisfied with Julian Lancaster’s recent performance.
Julian Lancaster gave her a cold glance, "Zenith is currently operating smoothly; there’s no need for extra help from Aunt, you should return to Crestfall."
After speaking, Julian Lancaster didn’t linger and directly turned to leave the villa.
Only after he left did Penelope Lancaster breathe a sigh of relief. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novᴇl(ꜰ)ire.ɴet
Facing this nephew just now, she unexpectedly felt a tingling sensation on her scalp and immense pressure, and her demeanor weakened significantly.
It was a warning not to meddle in his affairs.
In just a few short years apart, this nephew had grown to such an extent that if he continued to develop unchecked, she might not stand a chance against him in the future.
"Madam, Nina Sinclair and Young Master Quentin are already married, which is why she appeared so unafraid and unmoved by your check, making her difficult to deal with." Crystal’s voice interrupted her thoughts.
Penelope Lancaster nodded in agreement; she had used the wrong method.
She had always assumed Nina Sinclair wanted to become Madam Lancaster, so she treated this point as a condition for negotiation. But with Nina Sinclair already being Madam Lancaster, it had no appeal.
Julian Lancaster’s worth was far beyond this!
Moreover, seeing Julian Lancaster’s anxious arrival earlier suggested he had feelings for that woman, which further bolstered Nina Sinclair’s confidence.
No wonder she had dared to speak those words; she truly felt untouchable!
"Hmph! I have plenty of ways to deal with her." After saying this, Penelope Lancaster revealed a thoughtful look in her eyes and said, "I’ve found out Nina Sinclair is not only with Julian but also entangled with other men."
Crystal showed a surprised expression, "Does the eldest master know?"
"Perhaps not yet; we must figure out a way to let him know. When the time comes, they might break apart on their own without us having to intervene!"
The matter of Ethan Sherman and Nina Sinclair being together was well-known, and investigating Nina would easily reveal this connection.
Besides, with Nina Sinclair’s Sinclair Family background erased, it certainly seemed like Nina Sinclair and Ethan Sherman were involved, and even Penelope Lancaster thought that Nina Sinclair, while with Julian Lancaster, was also involved with Ethan Sherman.
After all, such women’s nature is to seek advantageous marriages, exhaust their cunning, and enter affluent households!
