Nina Sinclair was somewhat stunned as she looked at Ethan’s mother, not understanding why her aunt suddenly opposed her marriage so strongly.
Clearly, when they spoke on the phone before, they hadn’t seemed so opposed and kept congratulating her, saying they’d visit her in Veridia.
Nina looked at Ethan’s mother’s calm expression and said uneasily, "Aunt, I know our decision was sudden, but I’ve thought it through carefully. It’s not just a random decision to marry quickly."
Although it was casual in the beginning, she was now very serious about being with Julian Lancaster.
Originally, Nina thought that Julian would surely win her uncle and aunt’s approval, but now with their reaction, she was at a loss for words.
Ethan’s mother looked at Nina’s determined demeanor and zoned out for a moment, seeming to see something else through her.
Nina’s temperament was actually very similar to Madeline’s. If they didn’t interfere, she might follow in her mother’s footsteps.
Ethan’s father frowned and said, "Nina, your aunt is thinking of your best interest. Although you and that man get along well now, you still don’t know him deeply, or much about his family. We hope you’ll reconsider carefully."
Ethan’s mother nodded repeatedly next to him.
She sighed softly, "You’ve been with Joel Thatcher for so many years and still remain close..."
Nina couldn’t help but laugh, saying, "Of course, we’re good friends."
Ethan’s mother sighed wistfully, "I thought you two would end up together. It would be great if you could."
Nina was taken aback.
Could it be that her aunt’s objection was just because of her fondness for Joel?
Nina awkwardly rubbed her nose and said, "Aunt, even though everyone says that, I don’t mean it that way. Julian Lancaster is a great man. I’ll introduce him to you someday, and I’m sure you’ll change your mind then."
After Madeline became a vegetative state and Nina broke ties with the Sinclair Family, Ethan’s parents were effectively her second parents, and Nina treated them with utmost respect.
She definitely planned on introducing Julian to them, hoping for their blessing.
But now, since her relationship with Julian was still unstable, Nina wanted to wait a little longer until it was stable to introduce him to them.
Ethan’s parents, upon hearing this, didn’t look pleased but rather wore solemn expressions.
Of course, they had met Julian before, and knowing that he was the one marrying Nina made them worried because of those days...
The two of them fell into an unusual silence.
Nina didn’t understand what was wrong with them and felt somewhat at a loss.
While she was unsure, Ethan, who was standing quietly behind, understood everything clearly.
He hadn’t had the chance to tell his parents about Nina’s situation before. They only vaguely knew that Nina had gone to Veridia to get married, without knowing the details. Follow current novels on ɴo(v)elFɪre.ɴet
This morning, while Ethan’s father asked about business matters, he casually mentioned it.
Unexpectedly, their expressions turned tense, and they even checked Nina’s whereabouts. After learning she was at the hospital, they hurriedly came, pretending it was to visit Madeline.
In fact, they had already visited when Nina wasn’t around, but this time, they came specifically for Nina!
