Nina Sinclair took a taxi directly back to Ethan Sherman’s villa.
On the way, she stopped at a pharmacy to buy birth control pills. This was an unexpected event, and she absolutely could not get pregnant.
Once she returned to the villa, after taking the medication, she locked herself in the bathroom.
Thinking about how she had someone else’s scent on her, Nina felt dirty. She scrubbed herself vigorously in the bathtub several times, stopping only when her skin turned red.
There were still two days left before she had to answer Julian Lancaster.
Originally, she had planned to happily accept his request to date, but now, what right did she have to be with him?
Thinking of this, Nina felt a wave of bitterness in her heart.
If she told Julian about this, he might not mind, but she couldn’t get over it herself.
He’s a wonderful man, deserving of someone purer.
Who would want to be seen as filthy in front of the man they love? Perhaps this matter could become the reason he’s ridiculed in the future.
Seeing Vincent Lancaster’s expression today, he certainly won’t let things rest. He might still harass her.
Nina took a deep breath and scrubbed herself even more forcefully.
Suddenly, a sense of resolve surged within her.
She must find the owner of Goldenleaf Manor, and if she finds out who took her most precious thing, she will never let that man go!
Yet, the most crucial thing is why she lost her senses, who exactly orchestrated this?
Nina is not one to wallow in self-pity. After cleaning herself up, she donned a heavy robe and made a call to Sharon Lancaster in the living room.
The other side quickly picked up.
Before Nina could speak, Sharon’s voice came through, "Nina, are you okay?"
Nina replied in a deep voice, "I’m home."
Sharon visibly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I’ve gone home too. I never expected Chloe Langley to do such a thing. Truly shameless."
Was it Chloe Langley who did this?
Nina pondered carefully, and thought it must be her, given she and Sharon had just embarrassed her a moment before.
"What about her? Has she been dealt with?"
Sharon said, "Yes, she was thrown to those two waiters who wanted to harm you; it’s an example of lifting a rock only to drop it on her own foot. From now on, all Veridia socialites will be wary of her, and she can forget about getting close to them again."
Knowing the instigator had been punished, Nina’s heavy mood suddenly improved.
She softly said, "I’m a bit tired. I’ll hang up now."
Sharon felt that it was understandable for Nina to be tired after spending so much time with her brother, so she considerately hung up the phone.
At this moment, inside Goldenleaf Manor.
Julian Lancaster sneezed for no apparent reason. Earlier, after dealing with Chloe Langley, the manager of the manor informed him that Nina Sinclair had awakened and left on her own.
He called Nina Sinclair, but she didn’t answer.
Julian thought, perhaps she was upset about what happened between them. At the time, he intended to call a doctor to resolve the situation, but Nina clung to him, and he couldn’t resist. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NovᴇlFir(e).nᴇt
Nina might have some emotions, so it’s better not to appear in front of her and be an eyesore.
After all, he had previously said he’d give her time; there’s still two days left before expecting an answer from Nina Sinclair.
Having waited so long already, two more days wouldn’t make a difference. By then, Nina should have calmed down.
However, there was another issue to resolve.
Since he’s decided to be with Nina Sinclair, he needs to confront his grandfather. This matter cannot be explained clearly over the phone.
After thinking it over, Julian instructed Felix Ford to book a ticket to Crestfall.
In two days, he will clear everything for Nina Sinclair.
