Mr. Pretentious: Miss Valerius, He is Begging for a Title-Chapter 121: Rivalry Between the Paramour and the Childhood Friend for Her

Chapter 121: Chapter 121: Rivalry Between the Paramour and the Childhood Friend for Her
The place where Jasper Sinclair was staying was in the most expensive district of Aethelgard.
He came to discuss business and didn’t want to be disturbed by social engagements.
That afternoon, he was remotely handling the Sinclair Family’s affairs in Aldoria while at home, but he didn’t expect an unexpected guest.
The properties in the affluent area were all under the Ford Family’s name.
Sebastian Ford came here, and neither the hotel security nor the Sinclair family’s bodyguards could stop him.
The Ford Family bodyguards he brought were even more assertive, directly taking over the security inside and outside the hotel.
At this moment, Sebastian Ford sat with a grim expression on the living room sofa, exuding a menacing aura.
"Second Young Master Sinclair, my beloved has been taken away, so I came here to get her back personally."
In Jasper Sinclair’s impression, Sebastian Ford was calm and decisive, and he never expected the esteemed Master Ford to lose his mind over a woman.
"Master Ford, are you suspecting that Miss Valerius is hidden in this hotel by me? Bringing so many people to search?"
"I certainly believe the Second Young Master Sinclair wouldn’t hide my person."
Sebastian Ford’s eyes narrowed dangerously, and beneath his arrogant demeanor was the barely contained anxiety of losing control.
"My person was taken by Lawyer Lowell, who isn’t picking up the phone, and I have reason to believe he might harm her. I haven’t ed it to the police because, after all, Lawyer Lowell represents the Sinclair Family, and to avoid misunderstandings between the two families, I ask Second Young Master Sinclair to help me contact Lawyer Lowell."
Eleanor Valerius’s phone was turned off, and he couldn’t locate it.
At this time, Nathan Kendrick hadn’t called, indicating he hadn’t found Eleanor Valerius and Damian Lowell’s whereabouts.
The more time that passed, the more Sebastian Ford was running out of patience and becoming frantic.
"Damian is the Sinclair Family’s lawyer. It’s his day off today, and I can’t interfere with his personal time. If Master Ford has evidence suspecting Damian of detaining Miss Valerius’s freedom, I suggest you this to the police."
Jasper Sinclair calmly responded to Sebastian Ford’s pressure.
Because he knew that Sebastian Ford absolutely couldn’t publicly expose his ambiguous relationship with the younger member of his family.
"From the sound of it, Second Young Master Sinclair, are you unwilling to help me contact Lawyer Lowell?"
Sebastian Ford’s voice was cold and harsh, his eyes blazing with anger.
If Damian Lowell really dared to privately hide Eleanor Valerius, he knew he could turn Aethelgard upside down and he would definitely find her!
"If the Sinclair family doesn’t participate, then I’ll settle the score with Lawyer Lowell my own way."
Upon hearing this, Jasper Sinclair’s expression changed slightly.
Without the Sinclair family’s deterrence, Sebastian Ford dealing with Damian would be a piece of cake.
He indeed hadn’t expected that Eleanor Valerius was so important to Master Ford?
"I believe this is just a misunderstanding. It’s normal for Master Ford to be concerned about Miss Valerius as an elder, so I’ll try to contact Damian."
Jasper Sinclair was prepared for this.
He dialed Damian Lowell’s number in front of Sebastian Ford, only to be told that the line was busy.
"Can’t get through. Damian might be busy, please, Master Ford, be patient."
He did it on purpose.
It’s rare for Damian to have a chance to be alone with Eleanor Valerius, and he certainly didn’t want Sebastian Ford to ruin it.
"Alright then, I’ll trouble Second Young Master Sinclair to keep calling until you get through."
Sebastian Ford’s smile was icy, of course, he saw through Jasper Sinclair’s attempt to buy time for Damian Lowell.
He stayed here with two plans, also waiting for Nathan Kendrick’s news.
...
When Eleanor Valerius woke up, she found herself in the hospital’s emergency room.
"You’re awake? What’s your name? I’ll help you register, and later you’ll need a blood test."
"Who brought me here?"
She vaguely remembered fainting at the company’s publicity site.
Then, Eleanor Valerius struggled to sit up.
"Nurse, I’m fine, I don’t want a check-up, I want to go back."
When the nurse tried to stop her, Damian Lowell heard the commotion and came in from outside the curtain.
"Eleanor... Miss Valerius, you just fainted. Since you’re at the hospital, you should have a check-up."
"I just have a bit of low blood sugar, no need for a check-up."
Eleanor Valerius firmly refused.
Since childhood, Regina Jennings’s control and surveillance over her were extremely obsessive, leaving no freedom in Eleanor’s name.
At this critical time of calling off the engagement, she didn’t want to arouse any of Regina Jennings’s suspicions.
"Lawyer Lowell, thank you for bringing me to the hospital, but I’m really fine."
The medical staff couldn’t force her either.
However, Damian Lowell noticed her hidden concerns and felt an unexplainable worry.
"Miss Valerius, is there anything inconvenient for you?"
Could she have injuries inflicted by Sebastian Ford?
Hearing this, Eleanor Valerius looked down at her intact dress and breathed a sigh of relief.
Sebastian Ford enjoyed kissing her too much!
The intimate kiss marks on her body were always repeatedly overwritten.
"I’m really fine, I just need to rest."
Eleanor Valerius didn’t sense any unusual changes in her body after regaining composure.
She got out of bed to leave, but Damian Lowell blocked her path.
"Lawyer Lowell, could you please respect..."
"I’m not forcing you, but since you have low blood sugar, could you eat something before you leave?"
Damian Lowell knew Eleanor Valerius hadn’t yet realized he’d acknowledged his identity, and he didn’t want their relationship to always have conflicts.
Eleanor Valerius stood there, still feeling a bit dizzy.
"I want something sweet."
"Alright, you sit here and wait for me."
Eleanor Valerius nodded. She didn’t know how long she had been unconscious or that her phone was turned off.
Moments later, Damian Lowell returned with a box of small cakes.
"Try it and see if it’s sweet."
It’s obvious he ran back, his breathing was still slightly labored, and both his eyes and voice were gentle.
"Thank you."
Eleanor Valerius didn’t refuse his kindness, taking the cake and scooping a big bite.
To her surprise, there was a hazelnut-flavored chocolate hidden in the soft cake.
"Why is there chocolate too?"
"Is it sweet? I put it there on purpose."
Looking up to see Damian Lowell’s smile, Eleanor Valerius felt suddenly dazed.
In the orphanage as a child, Vincent used to always secretly hide chocolates in her bread, her favorite hazelnut flavor.
At this moment, Eleanor Valerius couldn’t resist asking him again.
"When I was a kid, there was an older brother who liked to hide chocolates in bread to cheer me up. Lawyer Lowell, could you possibly know him?"
Damian Lowell suddenly held his breath, knowing that Eleanor Valerius might have recognized him.
At the moment he hesitated to acknowledge his identity, his phone rang, showing a message from Jasper Sinclair.
[Sebastian Ford is looking for her, stay safe.]
At this moment, considering he couldn’t reveal his identity, Damian Lowell forcibly restrained his urge to acknowledge.
"The person you’re talking about, I probably don’t know."
"Oh."
Twice denied by Damian Lowell.
Eleanor Valerius sighed, unsure if she felt disappointed or a sense of relief?
Did she not want Lawyer Lowell to be Vincent?
Was it because she couldn’t face him? Or had she started to have feelings for someone else?
Watching Eleanor Valerius’s expression, Damian Lowell felt sure that she would certainly wait for him.
After finishing the cake.
Eleanor Valerius suddenly remembered something and asked, "What time is it? I should go home now."
She took out her phone, noticed it was turned off, and suddenly realized Sebastian Ford might be upset for not finding her.
Guessing her intention, Damian Lowell directly made a call back to Sebastian Ford first.
"Master Ford, I just saw that you were looking for me. Miss Valerius is indeed with me, and we’re still at the hospital."
Hearing this, Eleanor Valerius couldn’t help but feel nervous.
On the other side of the phone, Sebastian Ford’s voice was extremely cold.
"Lawyer Lowell, let her listen to the phone."
Damian Lowell turned on the speakerphone.
"Mr. Ford, my phone was off. I’m sorry for worrying you."
Eleanor Valerius had to avoid suspicion and couldn’t explain to him.
Sebastian Ford didn’t talk to her, and she thought for sure he was very angry.
In fact, Sebastian Ford’s barely noticeable deep breaths indicated his concern for her.
"Are you now..."
"Damian."
Jasper Sinclair suddenly spoke on the other end, deliberately countering the pressure Sebastian Ford had exerted earlier: "Drop Miss Valerius back at the Valerius Family home to avoid making Master Ford worry and affecting our families’ cooperation."
"Alright."
Damian Lowell also didn’t want to hand Eleanor Valerius over to Sebastian Ford.
Thus, Eleanor Valerius and Sebastian Ford were separated by the uncle-nephew identity issue.
Back at the Valerius Family home.
Damian Lowell watched Eleanor Valerius walk inside before leaving, finally reassured.
At this time, Regina Jennings was sitting in the living room, surprisingly with a gentle smile: "Eleanor, hurry back to your room, Sebastian is waiting for you."
