After visiting Old Master Lancaster, people gradually began to leave.
Julian Lancaster was about to leave when Heidi Leighton called out to him, "President Lancaster, please wait."
With a gentle smile on her face, she walked towards Julian Lancaster, "Can we talk?"
"I have no interest in chatting with strangers," Julian Lancaster rejected her coldly.
Hearing him refer to her as a stranger, Heidi Leighton’s smile almost faltered, but she quickly regained her composure due to her strong mental fortitude.
"President Lancaster, Elder Lancaster has already agreed to the marriage alliance between our families. I think we still need to have an open and honest talk about it. After all, we won’t be strangers anymore."
After she finished speaking, Heidi Leighton curved her lips into a polite and considerate smile.
Julian Lancaster frowned slightly, coldness showing in his eyes.
Is this woman trying to demand recognition from him?
With one hand in his pocket, he looked at Heidi Leighton coldly, saying, "Let’s talk here. What does Miss Leighton want to say?"
"President Lancaster, because of my matter, Elder Lancaster suffered an unjust accusation. I truly feel guilty. Actually, it was our fault for not informing you in advance, preventing such a sudden conflict."
Heidi Leighton was very skilled at gauging people’s moods and immediately took responsibility for what happened.
If it were an ordinary person, causing a family member to become ill with anger, they might feel guilty and regretful. Hearing such soothing words would make them feel that the woman in front of them is understanding and thus deeply moved.
But Julian Lancaster is not an ordinary man.
He has always known what he wants and cherishes his freedom, disliking his family arranging his marriage.
Julian Lancaster chuckled coldly and said, "If Miss Leighton truly feels sorry, please appear less often in front of me and my grandfather. This way, today’s situation might not happen again."
Heidi Leighton had been waiting for Julian Lancaster to say it’s okay, but she unexpectedly received such an answer.
Her face visibly turned unpleasant, and for a moment, she didn’t know how to react.
Everything Julian Lancaster did was always beyond her expectations.
He really did not give her any face!
Does her family background, education, and appearance, all fall short of Nina Sinclair, a woman who has none of those?
Feeling somewhat hurt, Heidi Leighton’s eyes misted over, and she spoke with a trembling voice: "President Lancaster, I consider myself excellent in every aspect. Do I really pale in comparison to Nina Sinclair in your eyes? Apart from her perfect education, how does she surpass me in family background or any other aspect?"
Julian Lancaster’s brows furrowed tightly, a trace of irritation flashing in his eyes.
Where does this woman get her confidence?
There’s nothing about her that surpasses Nina Sinclair! Even her proud family background pales in comparison to Nina Sinclair’s. Thɪs chapter is updated by NoᴠᴇFɪre.nᴇt
However, since Nina Sinclair distanced herself from the Sinclair Family, it’s not appropriate to reveal this publicly, which is why this woman boasts about her status.
Julian Lancaster said calmly, "In my eyes, she’s perfect, and there’s no need for you to judge her."
After a brief pause, he continued, "Grandfather wanting you as his granddaughter-in-law is his matter. I have only one woman. I hope Miss Leighton won’t speak nonsense in front of Nina again."
After saying this, he gave Heidi Leighton a warning glance.
Last time, when Nina Sinclair asked him, he suspected that Heidi Leighton must have told her something.
Feeling utterly embarrassed, Heidi Leighton realized Julian Lancaster didn’t spare her any face!
Before she could say anything, Julian Lancaster had already turned and left, his figure cold and unreachable.
