So, she is doubting her mother-daughter relationship with Ariana Evans.
"Nathan Moore, has anyone ever told you that you’re terrifying?"
At this moment, Titus Zane genuinely didn’t know whether to praise his attention to detail or his meticulous thinking.
Anyway, such people would be very considerate as friends, but once they become enemies, they are actually even more terrifying.
"Everyone says that," Nathan Moore admitted truthfully. Business rivals often said this about him, and moreover, he never went easy on his enemies.
After speaking, without waiting for Titus Zane’s reaction, he stretched out his long arm over, scooped Titus Zane to his side, his long arm encircled her waist, and with a patient downward gaze, he asked.
"Be good, tell me what happened, why did you look so upset just now?"
Titus Zane was not yet accustomed to communicating in such a manner with Nathan Moore, and besides, she was several months older than him, yet now, he was talking to her with a tone usually reserved for coddling children.
She squirmed a little; perhaps women instinctively act coquettishly in front of men, so Titus Zane spoke in a coquettish tone.
"Nathan Moore, don’t be , I’m not used to it."
"You’ll get used to it gradually," he said, pecking the top of Titus Zane’s head as he spoke, "Be good, tell me what’s the matter?"
Titus Zane looked up to meet Nathan Moore’s gaze, and inexplicably, she felt immense trust in him, even though... he was the lawful husband of her sister, Olivia Zane.
"Before, I met someone who told me I was her friend’s daughter... and moreover, everyone says that."
Nathan Moore furrowed his brow, "Who does ’everyone’ include?"
A man meticulous with information and adept at strategizing never misses the essence of a matter.
After thinking it over, Titus Zane said, "I encountered a strange uncle in Banyan City, and he said the same thing."
Titus Zane felt that the whole affair with Alder Locke didn’t really matter much, so she decided to skip over it and get straight to the point. The ’strange uncle’ she referred to was Finnian Xenos, Alder Locke’s father.
The arms encircling Titus Zane’s waist tightened slightly, lifting her onto his lap as Nathan Moore’s handsome face took on a serious expression.
"Tell me the details of the situation carefully, I’ll help you analyze it."
Titus Zane then began recounting the events from three years ago when she first accidentally met Abigail Zimmerman, to this recent return, and even hiring a private investigator, now with Jon being admitted to the hospital...
Of course, she didn’t mention the fact that her father, Julian Zane, had made his fortune through arms dealing with Nicole Zane, since in a law-abiding society, it was best the fewer people knew about such serious matters, the better.
Hearing that Jon had been in a car accident and was in the hospital, Nathan Moore scoffed coldly, "Hah! You actually trust that foreign devil, searching for him instead of me!"
"I am discussing it with you right now, aren’t I!" Without realizing it, the tone of Titus Zane’s voice was gradually changing.
"Too late, I’m angry, I don’t want to deal with it!"
Nathan Moore, acting capricious, turned his face away. He had spent a lot on a foreign devil who ended up with no valuable information and even got himself into a hospital.
She only thought of him after hitting a wall, and just the thought of it irritated him.
Seeing Nathan Moore acting so pridefully, Titus Zane asked, "If I had asked you for help from the beginning, would you have helped?"
He turned back, met Titus Zane’s evidently aggrieved eyes, and let out a light chuckle before counter-questioning, "How do you know I wouldn’t have?"
"Back then, you would have been pleased only after you had chewed me up and spat me out! As if you would have helped!" Since Nathan Moore was so petty, Titus Zane didn’t mind bringing up the past.
Thinking Nathan Moore would be displeased, unexpectedly he leaned his handsome face closer to hers, so close to Titus Zane’s face, and said with a teasing smile, "Men always enjoy eating women. Didn’t you know that?"
Titus Zane paused for a moment, then quickly realized, "Nathan Moore! I’m discussing serious matters with you!"
"What I’m talking about is serious, too."
