Chapter 369: Chapter 369: She Refused Him
Before Nina Sinclair could think any further, he had already lowered his head to kiss her.
Nina Sinclair's head buzzed immediately.
The man’s large hands skillfully found their way to her collar, unbuttoning her clothes one by one.
His scorching breath sprayed across her neck, making Nina Sinclair feel itchy and wanting to evade, but right
now, the man on top of her was like a mountain, dominantly trapping her, making it impossible for her to go
anywhere.
Tension, fear, dread, and many other emotions swirled in her mind.
It wasn’t the fear of intimacy with Julian Lancaster, they were married after all; doing these things was normal.
She was afraid of what would happen if Julian Lancaster found out she wasn’t a virgin.
What would he think? Would he consider her a dirty woman?
If he questioned her about who took her virginity, how was she supposed to answer then?
Nina Sinclair's entire body tensed up, stiffening drastically, and every pore emanated a resistant aura.
Upon feeling a chill on her chest, Nina Sinclair reflexively retracted her hands and held them tightly over herself,
anxiously saying, "Wait, Julian... I, I'm not ready yet."
She was afraid to face his disappointed, shocked eyes, unable to carry on with him any further.
Julian Lancaster took a deep breath, got up from her, and then sat by her side with a cold, somber gaze, also
trying to calm himself down.
Nina Sinclair could hardly muster the courage to lift her head to look at him, continuously lowering her head, and
said, "I'm sorry, | didn’t mean to, can you givestime? When I'm ready, | will... be with you."
Upon hearing Nina Sinclair apologize, Julian Lancaster furrowed his brows tightly.
He wasn’t angry with Nina Sinclair but rather upset with himself for leaving a bad impression, causing her
resistance to his closeness now.
She currently faced him with pure defensiveness, unwilling to take another step forward or accept him.

He took a deep breath and reached out to help Nina Sinclair button up her clothes.
"No need to say sorry."
It was his fault for not providing Nina Sinclair with a better experience and for casting a shadow over her heart;
he deserved it.
Seeing Julian Lancaster not blher, Nina Sinclair felt even more remorseful.
She had a reckless impulse to tell Julian Lancaster everything, to confess what she had done.
But if she did, it might be the end for them.
Even if not the end, there would be a thorn buried in the heart, occasionally touched, causing a bloody mess.
She didn’t want to endure such painful torture; just thinking about it felt suffocating.
Speak up...
Definitely not!
The two conflicting emotions spun in Nina Sinclair's mind, nearly driving her crazy.
Julian Lancaster saw Nina Sinclair's dejected appearance, extremely distressed, seeming not entirely resistant to
him. His disappointment and dull mood eased slightly as he gently consoled, "It’s okay, there's no rush, let's take
it slow."
"Julian..."
Nina Sinclair wanted to apologize again, but what Julian needed now was not an apology.
Her lips parted slightly, but nothing cout in the end.
Julian Lancaster reached out and ruffled her hair, "Don’t think too much, have a good rest."
After speaking, he got up and went into the bathroom, presumably to take a cold shower.
Nina Sinclair looked at the closed bathroom dooChapter 370: He's Really a Good Man
Chapter 370: Chapter 370: He's Really a Good Man
Julian Lancaster took two cold showers, yet he still felt incredibly hot all over.
After coming out, he saw Nina Sinclair's breathing had steadied, and she was already asleep.
This little ungrateful one, it seemed he was the only one suffering.
Julian Lancaster lay down on the bed. Nina Sinclair turned over, facing his direction, and he glanced down at her
sweet little face just inches away.
His heart stirred slightly, and he lowered his head to gently kiss her lips.
Nina Sinclair's brows furrowed slightly. As her breathing gradually becdifficult, Julian Lancaster released her.
Once free, Nina Sinclair burrowed eagerly into his arms, seemingly craving his warm embrace. After finding a
comfortable position, she fell back into a deep sleep.
Julian Lancaster let out a helpless sigh.
She was so resistant just now, yet now she seemed incredibly attached to him.
So could it be considered that Nina Sinclair was not rejecting him, but because last the didn’t give her a
good experience, which left a psychological shadow and made her resistant?
Finally, he pulled the blanket up to cover them both, then held her soft body, and together they drifted into
sleep.
Another new day began.
In the morning, when Nina Sinclair got up, she looked beside the bed, but Julian Lancaster was already gone. She
thought he was angry about what happened last night.
Unexpectedly, after washing up and changing clothes, she went out and saw him sitting at the dining table.
"Awake? Chave breakfast."
He seemed as if nothing had happened, just like usual.
At that moment, Nina Sinclair's affection for him reached an unprecedented height. He wasn’t angry at her
rejection, nor did he give her a cold shoulder.
She recalled when she was dating Vincent Lancaster, he suggested doing that kind of thing.
Back then she refused in fear, and even after explaining to Vincent Lancaster, he was still angry. He ignored her
for a full two weeks until she felt guilty and apologized to him, and they reconciled.
Even after apologizing, he was awkward for a while and showed her quite a few displeased looks.
However, Julian Lancaster was not angry, and his emotions were stable, not blaming her.
He's truly a good man!
Nina Sinclair brushed off the chaotic thoughts in her mind and walked over to sit at the dining table to have
breakfast with him.
After eating, Julian Lancaster drove Nina Sinclair to the company.
Nina Sinclair already knew about Sierra Sinclair and Vincent Lancaster being dismissed through Millie Langley,
and when she found out, she exclaimed it was gratifying!
President Lancaster really did something that made her happy.
She no longer had to face the disgusting Vincent Lancaster, which was also a benefit to her, even brightening
her mood at work.
Upon entering, Nina Sinclair noticed a group surrounding Rebecca Lowell.
"Rebecca, you must look out for us in the future!"
"We're your good colleagues, and now that you're Mrs. Zenith, you mustn't forget us!"
"Yeah, Rebecca, I've treated you to food quite a bit before. We have the best relationship. Don’t forget me."
As Nina Sinclair passed by, she heard these flattering words.
She accurately captured a few key phrases among them.
Mrs. Zenith?
Are they talking about Rebecca Lowell?
Just now, she was praising President Lancaster's decision to fire Vincent Lancaster, and now watching Rebecca
Lowell act with the demeanor of a mistress, she suddenly felt an ominous premonition.
Once that woman had power, she’d definitely find various ways to trouble her.
It seems she needs to prepare herself mentally in advance.
r and sighed heavily.
Sigh! It’s all her fault. Perhaps once she finds out who the boss behind the Goldenleaf Manor is, she'll be able to
conquer her fears and inferiority, opening her heart to Julian Lancaster.
