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.”

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?”
