"Aunt, do you think Nathan can outdo Grandpa?"
"Child, what are you talking about?" Titus Zane’s question once again elicited laughter from Abigail Zimmerman, "What battling? Grandpa is also doing this for your own good. If that boy really has the capability, maybe Grandpa would agree too. "
"Really?" Hearing Aunt say this, Titus Zane suddenly felt hopeful, his eyes lit up abruptly, and the sudden action startled Abigail Zimmerman, causing her to frown helplessly and chide, "You child, sometimes your personality really takes after Wesley."
After saying that, she continued to apply eye patches on Titus Zane, "Though, your relationship is indeed... a bit hard for people to accept, that boy is your brother-in-law, an indisputable fact, and your relationship in Capital City... Sigh, let’s not talk about it,"
At this, Abigail Zimmerman sighed again, "It’s just really hard for people to accept."
"But Nathan and Lily didn’t do anything," She knew how nasty the rumors in Capital City could be, but she lived her life for herself; since Nathan Moore didn’t care, she didn’t either.
"Whether or not anything happened, he’s still officially your brother-in-law." Abigail Zimmerman picked up the ice pack and stood up, "Alright, no more fuss about this, let’s go shopping with your Aunt."
She came out in a hurry, penniless, and Titus Zane felt that without her grandfather’s permission, she wouldn’t even be able to step out of the large courtyard.
Before Nathan Moore left, he said, "Wait for me," and since she couldn’t leave for the time being, she could only wait for Nathan Moore to figure out a way to take her back.
She went shopping in the mall with Abigail Zimmerman all morning, picked out a lot of clothes, Abigail Zimmerman being very meticulous, even helping her choose underwear, Mr. Li drove to deliver the clothes back to the large courtyard, and Titus Zane accompanied Abigail Zimmerman to buy ingredients for the evening.
Samuel Zane had a habit of drinking oats, Abigail Zimmerman and Titus Zane stood in front of the shelf picking, Titus Zane watching listlessly.
Not far ahead in the snack area, a little girl was tiptoeing to reach for some snacks. The little girl didn’t look very old, at most five or six years old, alone, she attempted to climb up the shelf when she couldn’t reach the snacks.
The risky maneuver of the little girl frightened Titus Zane, she hurried over to help get the snack the little girl wanted, "Little sister, do you want this?"
The little girl took the bag of chips, crisply thanking her, then turned and ran towards the end of the aisle, "Daddy, daddy, I got the chips..."
"Amelia, you’re so impressive, did you fall at all?" A familiar gentle male voice sounded, instinctively, Titus Zane curiously looked over. When the man’s face, gentle as jade, appeared in her sight, Titus Zane was taken aback, her heart couldn’t help but feel emotional, the world was unexpectedly small, to encounter such a person even in Capital City.
Wesley Foley also saw Titus Zane, holding his daughter’s hand as he walked over.
"Long time no see," Wesley Foley greeted proactively, "Daddy, just now this pretty sister helped me get the chips."
Amelia chimed in, Titus Zane cornered her lips, "Long time no see," her gaze shifted toward the adorable girl, the feeling in her heart unclear.
In her memory, Wesley was single, and always pursuing her, but unexpectedly... his daughter was already so big.
The feeling of being deceived, very uncomfortable, especially by someone she trusted.
Wesley Foley looked down at his daughter, "Amelia, did you thank the sister?" Follow current novᴇls on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⟡𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕥⟡𝕟𝕖𝕥
"Yes, daddy told Amelia to be polite, so Amelia thanked the sister."
Wesley Foley lifted his gaze, "Are you visiting Capital City?" He couldn’t think of any other reason.
"No, relatives live here... came with them to buy some groceries."
