Julian Lancaster arrived at the Lancaster Group, only to find Sharon Lancaster eagerly waiting for him there.
She was obviously there specifically to keep track of their affairs. As soon as she saw Julian, she immediately put on a smile and walked over, saying, "Brother, did you sleep well last night? How are things between you and my sister-in-law? Is everything resolved? My plan worked, didn’t it?"
"Brother, why aren’t you saying anything? Don’t scare me! I was worried last night that you and my sister-in-law might not have talked things through, so I didn’t want to disturb you with texts or calls. Now you’re making me anxious."
Sharon acted under Louis Quinn’s manipulation to do such things.
In fact, she wasn’t even sure if what she did was right, nor did she know whether Nina Sinclair would be angry when she found out about this.
The most concerning thing was Julian Lancaster’s expression, which was too hard to read. She couldn’t tell what he was feeling at all.
Just when Sharon was feeling extremely anxious, Julian finally decided not to let her hang any longer and said, "It’s all resolved. From now on, things will be as they were before. Nina is still your sister-in-law."
Hearing Julian’s admission in person, Sharon broke into a wide smile.
"Oh! That’s really great. I guess I’m quite clever after all, solving the problem between you and Grandpa. But Brother, you better hurry up and have a child with my sister-in-law. Otherwise, where will we find a baby for Grandpa in ten months?"
When Julian heard what Sharon said, his eyes dimmed a little.
He had already started working on it last night, but as for when there would be a child, that was out of his control.
Meanwhile, Nina Sinclair had already arrived at the Sinclair Group.
To her surprise, the first thing she saw was Vivian Quinn looking smug and Byron Sinclair looking stern. Behind them were several Sinclair Group employees, a few of whom Nina recognized, but the others were strangers to her.
Everyone’s eyes were on her, many watching with a sort of anticipation, as if awaiting a drama to unfold. Thɪs chapter is updated by No(ᴠ)ᴇlFire.nᴇt
Vivian Quinn spoke only after Nina approached, "Late on your first day at Sinclair Group—is this how someone in your position sets an example? Everyone thinks someone with no sense of time probably isn’t very trustworthy either."
Nina pressed her lips together and stayed silent.
She was indeed late and had no excuse to argue against it.
Vivian had some initial dissatisfaction about Nina joining the company, but she hadn’t expected Nina to make this mistake herself.
"Alright, Nina, come over here." Byron Sinclair spoke up, putting a stop to whatever Vivian was going to say next.
Nina felt grateful and moved to his side.
When Vivian saw Byron taking Nina’s side, her face immediately fell.
Damn Nina Sinclair. It’s only due to her connection with Julian Lancaster that she received Grandpa’s approval to enter Sinclair Group. Now that Nina and Julian are divorced, when she reveals the truth to Grandpa, Nina will be thrown out.
Thinking this, Vivian finally felt at ease.
Subsequently, Byron introduced Nina’s role to the employees of Sinclair Group, saying, "Everyone, this is the manager starting from today. I hope we can all work together well."
The room filled with applause, but some people remained unimpressed with Nina.
On the first day, Nina didn’t do much work. She spent her time in the office, and soon it was time to clock out. She received a call from Julian Lancaster, saying he was coming to pick her up and take her somewhere.
At this point, Nina had developed a conditioned reflex when Julian mentioned taking her somewhere.
She was always worried about potential issues cropping up, but after thinking it over, she decided there probably wouldn’t be so many surprises, and she relaxed.
