"Ah," Alder Locke responded and looked around casually. Apart from the old man’s chair, there was only one bed in the room. He took a seat at the foot of the bed and heard the old man sigh, saying, "Titus’s mother passed away early and she didn’t grow up by my side. I wonder if she would bla now seeing like this."
"Grandpa Samuel, no matter what you are Titus’s biological grandfather, and everything you do is for her good. Maybe she can’t understand it now, but when things settle down she will understand your hardships."
"Alas, whether she understands or not, I will never let her be with that man. Not to ntion their relationship, just his attitude towards Titus before... I won’t agree. If there hadn’t been an accident, it must have been Nora’s spirit protecting her daughter. What if she really lost her life!"
At this, Samuel Zane sighed again, "Just thinking about it scares . Titus, this child, really takes after her mother’s stubbornness, headstrong and never turning back until she hits a wall."
Alder Locke stood up, ca behind Samuel Zane, and placed his hands on the old man’s shoulders, patiently comforting, "Grandpa Samuel, stop sighing. Now that Titus has co back ho, once we are married, I promise to take good care of her and not let her suffer any grievances."
"Ah, good boy, I trust you," Samuel Zane patted the back of Alder Locke’s hand, glanced at the photo in Samuel Zane’s hands, and Alder Locke shifted his gaze, probing cautiously.
"Grandpa Samuel, do you think... Nathan Moore will just give up on Titus that easily?"
"Humph! Even if he doesn’t give up, what can he do!" Samuel Zane snorted coldly, put the photo back in the drawer, and slamd it shut, "Now that Titus is here with , as long as I don’t agree, she can’t go back."
"What if... that man chases after her?" As Alder Locke said these words, the corners of his mouth lifted with a clear hint of malice, since she could use him, he couldn’t be blad for being unkind, and after all, love is selfish, and he’s no saint.
"What? Did you et him today?" Samuel Zane suddenly turned around, his eyes alert as he looked at Alder Locke, who smiled lightly and said, "Grandpa Samuel, don’t get so agitated, it’s bad for your health at your age to be too excited."
Alder Locke’s considerate and sensible care once again brought a sigh from Samuel Zane, who then turned back to look forward, "Ah, such a good boy, why doesn’t Titus like him."
"Don’t worry, Grandpa. Titus and I haven’t had much interaction, but over ti, she’ll co to see my good qualities," Alder Locke continued to patiently reassure, seeing that the old man’s emotions had stabilized, and then went back to the previous topic.
"Grandpa Samuel, what if that man cos to Capital City to secretly take Titus back?"
"Don’t worry, he won’t be able to take her!" Samuel Zane said decisively, while Alder Locke laughed sowhat disagreeably.
"Grandpa Samuel, Titus is not a child anymore, you can’t just tie her to your side forever. What if she finds an excuse to secretly et that man without you knowing?"
"Humph, I’ll have Zhang follow her every step closely, to see how she could secretly et that man!" Samuel Zane said angrily, a triumphant emotion flashed through Alder Locke’s eyes, knowing that with Zhang closely following, Titus would not be able to secretly et that man in the future.
While feeling smug, Samuel Zane suddenly turned around, his hands resting on the armrests of the chair, his eyes sharply perceptive.
"Alder, tell Grandpa the truth, did Titus secretly et with that boy today!"
Facing the old man’s piercing gaze, Alder Locke’s eyes flickered evasively, his expression troubled, "Grandpa Samuel, please don’t make it hard for . I’m a man, how could I gossip like a woman."
