Chapter 805 Bitter Feelings

Therefore, the only thing that Titus could do in the final moments of his life was to keep Julia company

and take her places to enjoy some good food to make it up to her.

On the other hand, Julia knew what Titus was thinking after their 30-year marriage. In fact, one look at

Titus’ face was enough for her to tell what was on his mind. However, that was precisely why Julia felt

bitter on the inside. Soon, tears rolled down her cheeks as she said, “You’re not going to die, Titus. You

are not! We’ll find a suitable kidney for you! I’m sure we will!” Julia wrapped her fingers around Titus’

hand tightly, afraid that the man would be gone forever if she ever let it go.

Needless to say, Titus was able to see through Julia’s fear, so he patted her back and told her to ease

her mind. “You and I both know how unlikely we’ll find a compatible donor.”

“No.” Julia refused to accept the truth as she hugged Titus and rested her head on his shoulders, crying

non-stop.

Titus smiled gently and patted her back. “Alright, stop crying. There are others watching us here. It’s

okay.”

At the same time, Julia knew her current state was embarrassing since all bystanders had their eyes on

her. She then looked up and reached for her handkerchief in her pocket to wipe her tears. After that, she

stopped crying and replaced her sad look with a smile in an attempt to be the elegant socialite she

always was, looking as if she didn’t just cry at all. “Alright, let’s not talk about that. After all, we’re here for

the blueberry cake. Let’s go.” Julia tried to keep herself together and responded with an affirmative hum,

seizing the man’s arm while stepping forward.

Soon, both of them made it to the cashier as Titus coughed and placed an order. “I’d like to have a

blueberry cake.”

The cashier looked up and said apologetically, “I’m sorry, but that lady just bought the last piece of

blueberry cake.”

Meanwhile, Sonia, who happened to have her back toward them as she sat in her seat, somehow

sensed someone pointing at her just when she turned around and put her glass down. The moment

Sonia exchanged gazes with the couple, the three of them paused in a trance.

“It’s you?”

“It’s you both?”

While the three of them simultaneously said that, the cashier gazed at Sonia and turned her attention to

Titus and Julia before realizing the three of them knew each other. Therefore, she decided not to

interfere with them and say anything else.

“Why are you here?” Julia hugged Titus’ arm and asked with a slightly darkened look on her face.

While Titus looked at Sonia silently with his glacial gaze, Sonia smiled coldly and stood up in front of the

couple who used to treat her badly. “The Gray Family doesn’t own this place, so why can’t I be here?

Who would ask a dumb question like that, Mrs. Gray?”

“You…” Julia grew furious, but Titus quickly stood in her way with his arm stretched out to tell her to calm

down. Then, he stepped forward to confront Sonia himself, but he continued to remain silent as he kept

his eyes on her. For some reason, he started losing himself the longer he looked at her face.

She looks so much like her! To Titus, the side view of Sonia’s face and every part of her facial features

reminded him of his mother. Although he was able to notice this back then, he didn’t really keep that in

mind and had slowly forgotten how Sonia looked like his mother. However, when he saw her during the

press conference back then, it suddenly occurred to him that Sonia might be Rina all along. He had

made this assumption by judging from the time she was adopted and her resemblance to his mother,

only to later find out that he was wrong. While he had no idea whether he should thank or blame his fate

for that, his eyes that were fixed upon Sonia’s face were filled with complicated emotions. I should be

lecturing her now, but I just can’t utter those words out of my mouth. I just can’t!

Regardless of Titus’ mood at that moment, Sonia somehow found it strange when looking the man in the

eye. After all, she had only seen Titus’ sinister gaze every time they locked eyes with each other, but in

the face of his current expression, she surprisingly didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. Although Titus’ eyes

still seemed sinister and wicked to Sonia, there was also another indescribable feeling that she could

sense from his gaze. At the same time, she felt uncomfortable with that feeling, for it seemed like her

limbs were tied up.

Nonetheless, Sonia didn’t express her actual feelings; she hid them well as she looked Titus in the eye

and sized him up in silence. It had been a long time since she last saw him, but even she knew that Titus

had been frequently admitted into the hospital. At the same time, Tina had also approached Sonia and

begged the woman to help him out—this suggested how serious his condition was. However, it wasn’t

until she saw Titus’ skinny and sickly look that she realized what she had heard was true. For some

reason, Sonia felt bitter on the inside when she saw Titus’ emaciated appearance as she reckoned she

should be happy that the man whom she considered her enemy was dying, yet she didn’t feel gleeful at

all. Instead, her heart was filled with sadness and unhappiness.

Am I feeling sad now? Sonia bit her lips, wondering whether she was feeling bad for Titus’ severe

condition. No way! This is impossible! I’ll never feel sad for Titus unless I’m out of my mind! Sonia

clenched her fists and took a deep breath, suppressing all of her thoughts while she pretended to glare

at the couple in annoyance. Then, she turned her attention to the cashier and asked, “Hi, is my blueberry

cake ready?”

While Sonia’s question alleviated the tension of the atmosphere, Titus decided not to stare at her

anymore and kept his head down in a broody manner. As for Sonia, she couldn’t help but feel surprised

with Titus’ strange reaction, for he typically had an unfriendly attitude. After all, the man didn’t take kindly

to her every time they met, which often led to a heated argument because Sonia could never endure it

without talking back. Therefore, she was left bewildered by Titus’ reticent response that day, but she

quickly reckoned it was because he was sick and weak to talk. As she was trying to think of an answer to

explain Titus’ unusual behavior, the cashier suddenly called out to her by saying, “Miss, your blueberry

cake is ready.”

“Alright, thank you.” Sonia smiled at the cashier and extended her arm to receive the bag.

However, just when Sonia had stretched her arm out, Julia seemingly saw something and squinted

before she seized the former’s hand and jerked the woman toward her.

“Ah!” Sonia nearly fell onto the ground, but fortunately, her quick reflexes prompted her to get a hold of

the edge of the desk just in time to maintain her balance before she lost her footing.

“What are you doing, Mrs. Gray?!” Sonia stood still and let go of the desk. Her face was dark as she

questioned the woman with a glare.

While every other customer’s attention was drawn by Sonia’s voice, they all looked at her in puzzlement

and wondered what was going on. At the same time, Titus was also surprised by his wife’s behavior, but

he quickly regained his senses and gently spoke to Julia with a frown on his face. “What are you doing?

Let her go. This is no place for us to settle our vendetta. We’re out in the open, and doing anything

impulsive is only going to put us in trouble.”

Nevertheless, Julia ignored Titus’ words and fixed her gaze on Sonia’s wrist, looking closely at the scar

on it. As she shivered from head to toe in agitation, she then said, “Look, Titus.”

“What are you looking at? You’d better let me go now, or I’m going to call the cops.” Unhappy and

annoyed, Sonia tried to free her wrist, but Julia’s grasp was too tight for her to resist.

“Please stop moving and let me take a look at it. Please!”

Upon hearing her plea, Sonia paused in a trance and even stopped struggling. She looked at Julia in

disbelief and asked, “D-Do you know what you just said?”
