Julian Lancaster’s appearance disrupted the rhythm of the engagement party.
Many guests present were there for him, and now that Julian Lancaster appeared, those executives all flocked towards him as if wolves eyeing their prey, eagerly vying for his attention.
Nobody outside had ever seen Julian Lancaster, but seeing his true face today in such a setting was exhilarating!
Julian Lancaster is a miracle in the business circle; in the short time he joined Zenith, he increased its market value nearly tenfold!
Plus, there’s that rumor that he’s the future Head of the Lancaster Family...
The executives who were by Vincent Lancaster’s side all moved over to Julian Lancaster, leaving him alone and neglected in the corner.
The scene of people fawning over him earlier was like a dream.
His face turned ashen.
Julian Lancaster stole all his limelight; today was supposed to be his engagement party, and he was supposed to be the star!
A crowd of socialites gathered around Nina Sinclair, who had previously looked down on her; now, after learning she is Julian Lancaster’s wife, their attitudes changed immediately.
"Nina, your dress is gorgeous. I didn’t expect you to be the wife of Lancaster Group’s president. No wonder you can wear Jenna’s prized creation."
"Yeah, Sierra Sinclair’s dress pales in comparison to yours."
"President Lancaster is so mysterious. How did you get to know him, Nina?"
The socialites around Nina Sinclair chattered away, as if they were good friends with her, completely forgetting their earlier sneers.
These socialites simply didn’t care; in their eyes, interests always come first.
Nina Sinclair’s status and position were much higher than Sierra Sinclair’s; befriending Nina Sinclair was far more beneficial than Sierra Sinclair, so they naturally redirected their efforts toward Nina Sinclair.
Mentioning Julian Lancaster, Nina Sinclair worriedly glanced over to where Julian was surrounded by those executives; she feared he might get overwhelmed by the crowd and reveal something.
Julian Lancaster stood at the center, his posture upright, surrounded by the attentive and flattering executives. He listened quietly, noble yet indifferent, showing no signs of nervousness, as if he was born to navigate the realms of high society with ease.
He adapted very well; she didn’t need to worry.
Many socialites also looked over, exclaiming in admiration, "Ah! President Lancaster is so handsome. I never expected him to be so young and good-looking."
"So envious of Nina Sinclair!"
"Which direction should I bow to get a man like that?"
Nina Sinclair felt a mix of emotions because she didn’t truly own this man; he already had a girlfriend.
After today’s engagement party, they were likely to part ways.
At this time, Sierra Sinclair was also being ignored, with only Phoebe Linden and Lillian Tupper remaining by her side.
They actually wanted to get close to Nina Sinclair too, but having received considerable benefits from Sierra Sinclair before, and considering the previous conflicts with Nina Sinclair, they assumed she wouldn’t easily forgive them.
To maximize their remaining value by helping Sierra Sinclair, they chose to stay by her side. Thɪs chapter is updated by Novᴇ(l)Fɪre .ɴᴇt
"Sierra, don’t worry. Don’t you still have something on Nina Sinclair?"
"You can definitely bring her down; let’s see how she dares to boast then."
The two comforted her, harboring some jealousy towards Nina Sinclair and desiring to defeat her.
Sierra Sinclair took out her phone and saw the download progress bar almost complete; the video was about to be downloaded. The castle’s location in Veridia’s suburbs had poor signal, which caused the delay.
Soon, she would ruin Nina Sinclair!
