Titus Zane looked up in surprise, seeing the emotionally charged elder before him, and murmured, "Grandpa... how did you know?"
Feeling that his words had been too harsh, Julian Zane snorted coldly and restrained his temper a little, "Hmph, there’s nothing I can’t find out, whether it’s been three years or thirty."
Facing the elder’s clearly unhappy expression, Titus Zane pursed his lips and tentatively said, "Grandpa, it’s all in the past, I’m very happy now, and Nathan... he treats me well, too,"
"Well?" Samuel Zane turned his gaze back, his single word dripping with cold mockery. For some reason, being looked at by his grandfather, Titus Zane felt an inescapable sensation of being seen through.
While feeling guilty, he saw Samuel Zane’s nose flare with a snort of cold mockery, and the old man retorted, "The ’well’ you speak of, is it him forcing you to go to the hospital for an abortion, and then arrogantly shackling you by his side? Regardless of the world’s gossip, he refuses to let you leave? Hmph, if you hadn’t jumped off the roof, you would probably still be imprisoned by him now!"

watched the elder unbelievably,
"Grandpa? How do you know all this?" Even the details of her abortion and jumping off the building were crystal clear, then he should also know that she is now living with Nathan Moore...
That’s right, if he didn’t know, why would he send Xiao Li to take her back to the Zane Family.
"Hmph, I told you, there is nothing that I want to know that I can’t find out." Samuel Zane harrumphed coldly, moved closer into the sofa, his hands clasped in front of his chest, "Thirty years ago, your mother upset me so much with that big mess... that’s why I couldn’t be bothered with you. Now, since I have brought you back to the Zane Family, I will make the decisions for you going forward."
"But Grandpa, Nathan Moore and I are husband and wife!" Titus Zane was anxious, seeing his grandfather’s attitude, thinking that he wanted to separate her and Nathan Moore. In her life of thirty-one years, she had finally fallen for a man once again, and she didn’t want to lose him another time.
"Husband and wife?" Samuel Zane turned his gaze back again, his curling lips filled with mockery. Facing his grandchild’s aggrieved and anxious expression, he advised earnestly and kindly.
"Titus, you’ve been living in T city for quite some time. You know very well how people talked about you and that man back then. It’s only that Julian Zane has a thick face, only cares about his interests and not what people say behind his back..." As he spoke, Julian Zane settled deeper into the sofa, looking up at the ceiling with a sigh,
"Now it’s different, since I have decided to let you return to your roots, I can’t allow people to laugh at you anymore, not to mention that man had also harmed you before,"
Titus Zane had just moved his lips to interject when Samuel Zane continued, "Setting that aside for now, even in terms of social standings, you two just cannot be together."
"Why, Grandpa, why won’t you approve of me and Nathan being together?"
Samuel Zane straightened up again, his eyes widened fiercely, losing the kind and amiable demeanor from before, and his tone became stern.
"Why don’t you understand yourself? What’s this about an aunt living with her brother-in-law!"
Seeing the elder’s adamant attitude, worried that her niece would struggle to cope, Abigail Zimmerman, who had been sitting by the side, interjected at the right moment.
She moved closer towards Titus Zane, taking Titus Zane’s hand and smiled, persuading, "Titus, don’t be angry, your Grandpa is just hot-tempered, but his intentions are good. He doesn’t want you to suffer outside anymore, nor does he want you to continue being deceived."
"Aunt, Nathan hasn’t deceived me."
