Nina Sinclair left the Lancaster Family with her suitcase in tow, all by herself.
As she reached the door, she encountered a figure she didn’t want to see. Vincent Lancaster blocked her way, his eyes quietly watching her as he asked, "Nina, where are you going? Let me give you a ride."
She no longer had any feelings for this ex-boyfriend and had no intention of getting involved with him again.
In fact, besides Sharon Lancaster, she didn’t want to be in contact with anyone else from the Lancaster Family unless absolutely necessary.
Seeing Nina’s indifferent attitude, Vincent’s eyes darkened for a moment. He let out a cold laugh and said, "Nina, just now Julian Lancaster chose the Lancaster Family over you in front of everyone. Haven’t you seen it clearly? To Julian, the Lancaster Family is far more important than you. He wants power, not you!"
Nina quietly listened to Vincent’s words.
Though harsh, in others’ eyes, it indeed seemed that way. Julian just chose the Lancaster Family without hesitation and parted ways with her.
After a while, she finally laughed.
She lifted her gaze to Vincent and said, "Vincent, our matter is long past. What’s the point of saying all this to me now? Trying to provoke me? Or make me hate Julian a bit more?"
Nina paused, "Anyway, there’s no going back between you and me."
With that, she didn’t linger any longer and left with her suitcase.
Vincent watched Nina’s departing figure with an impulse to chase after her and hide her away.
He found himself unable to see through her anymore.
Originally, he thought that when things developed to this point, Nina would be heartbroken. All he needed to do was to show the gentleness she deserved, and she would fall back in love with him.
Or perhaps if Nina was homeless, he could let her stay in one of his properties, and then they could naturally come together.
But Nina was extremely calm and looked down on him.
Would it only be when he stood at the pinnacle of the Lancaster Family, wielding all power, that Nina would finally see him?

After leaving the Lancaster Family, Nina felt a moment of confusion.
She suddenly didn’t know where to go.
She had just refused Julian Lancaster’s offer to drive her, saying she had somewhere to go, but it was a lie.
She truly had nowhere to go. The Sinclair Family...
Thinking of her stepmother and Ruby Sinclair, she didn’t want to go back and invite their ridicule, leaving her in a state of homelessness once again.
Originally, she had a rented place in Crestfall, but it had been vacated the last time she returned to the Sinclair Family.
As for her uncle in the Sherman Family...
If they knew about her current situation, they’d rush to the Lancaster Family to demand justice for her without hesitation. Now that they’ve parted on good terms, she didn’t want any more trouble.
So the Sherman Family wasn’t an option. Where could she go?
Nina sighed wistfully; it seemed like Veridia no longer had a place for her to stay.
Suddenly, she thought of someone. Helplessly, she dialed his number, "Joel, do you have an empty house? Can I stay for a couple of days? I’ll move out once I find a place."
She dialed Joel Thatcher’s number. Perhaps she could only turn to him now.
Joel, hearing Nina’s request, was silent for a moment before urgently asking, "Nina! What’s happened? Did you fight with Julian? Where are you now? I’ll come find you right away!"
