For some reason, hearing Ariana Evans's complaints on the phone, Titus Zane felt a pang of guilt.
After some perfunctory conversation, he hastily hung up the call.
...
"Mom! Why do you keep nagging her with these things!"
No sooner had Ariana Evans put away her phone than Olivia Zane rushed over, standing behind her, complaining discontentedly.
Ariana Evans turned around, a sneer escaping her lips as she observed her daughter's anxious and indignant demeanor.
"I repeat these things for a reason."
"Whether you have a reason or not, if she finds out about Nathan's current attitude towards me, who knows how much she'll gloat."
