Chapter 566: Chapter 566

After speaking, Titus Zane walked towards the door, and before Alder Locke could even rise to stop him, Samuel Zane’s voice filled the air again, his tone unhurried yet clearly threatening.

"Titus, if you dare to step out of this house today, tomorrow’s financial headlines will be about that young man’s company going bankrupt!"

Titus Zane’s steps abruptly halted, he turned around, facing his grandfather, his brows deeply furrowed.

"Grandfather, I’m your own grandson, why do you have to force me ?"

"Force you? I’m doing this for your good!"

"But the ’good’ you’re doing is more than I can bear!" Titus Zane yelled weakly, he’s an adult and doesn’t need anyone to hurt him under the guise of goodness.

"I’m an adult, I have the freedom to choose my own friends."

"If you want that young man to suffer, keep making a fuss!" Samuel Zane coldly threw out a sentence, facing his grandfather’s strong and undeniable attitude, Titus Zane had no choice but to compromise.

Nathan Moore said, this incident is somewhat troublesome, although that guest’s statements have many loopholes, after investigation, indeed a man’s *** was found inside... and now the matter is already fermenting online, with Nicholas Croft and a few others helping to deal with it.

If it truly is grandfather’s doing, I believe it’s going to be hard to suppress even with several people’s effort, given grandfather’s power and influence.

With his head hung low, Titus Zane bit his lip, a tear involuntarily rolled down, "Grandfather, I promise you, I will no longer associate with him, please let him go, stop making things difficult, okay?"

"As long as you no longer associate with each other, I will not make things difficult," Samuel Zane seriously promised.

Titus Zane slowly climbed the stairs, each step heavy and difficult.

Once forced to separate from Logan Ray, but the feelings at that time were nothing like now; it felt as if countless fine needles were piercing his heart, causing every nerve in his body to twitch uncontrollably, powerless and inescapable.

Watching his grandson’s figure disappearing up the stairs, Samuel Zane finally rose, grabbed a landline phone, and dialed a number, "Check for me, what happened to that young man’s company!"

After hanging up the phone, Alder Locke also stood up, "Mr. Zane, Titus is very heartbroken right now, I’ll go up and console him."

In the room, Titus Zane hugged his knees while leaning against the bed, thinking of calling Nathan Moore, yet not knowing how to start.

Was he supposed to tell Nathan Moore that his grandfather was deliberately making things difficult, just to tear them apart?

But if he tells the truth, what would Nathan Moore think...

While conflicted, there was a gentle knock on the door, followed by Alder Locke pushing the door open and walking in, coming to sit beside him on the bed, smiling as he spoke.

"Such a grown-up, still running back to your room to cry secretly?"

Glancing up and glaring at Alder Locke, Titus Zane said grumpily, "It’s all because of you, had it not been for your grandfather, he would not disapprove of Nathan and me!" ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮※𝓷𝓮𝓽

Alder Locke smiled helplessly, "Titus, I was forced to act as well, who would want to live in someone else’s house if not for our elderly pressing us, I was much more comfortable in Banyan City!"

"Really? You came to Capital City not for me?" Titus Zane looked at Alder Locke sceptically, recalling how he was forcibly taken to meet the parents back in Banyan City.

With evident distaste, Alder Locke looked at Titus Zane, "I admit you’re pretty, but there are plenty of charming girls on the streets, how desperate would I have to be to come all this way to find you."

Without doubting, Titus Zane took Alder Locke’s words as truth, since they both were compelled by their families, "Then what should we do?"

Leaning closer, Alder Locke suggested, "I do have a plan, but I don’t know if you’d agree."
