Understanding the meaning behind his words, Jarold quickly replied, "Yes, yes, that's right. It's a pity that it didn't succeed back then. Sigh, it's really something regrettable in my life as long as I live." After finishing speaking, he turned to look at Monica.

"But it doesn't matter. Although our children are not married, it's also fine and magnificent if our grandchildren can wed each other."

Titan kept nodding his head, and the two old men laughed out loud.

Monica looked at Titan's eyes and spoke weakly, "Grandpa..."

Titan's fox-like, cunning eyes fell on Maddox. He smiled enigmatically and stated, "Sebastian is not young anymore, and he is only a few years older than Monica. If you two can..."

Maddox, who had not spoken since he took his seat, finally lifted his head. He looked up slightly, revealing his pair of dark eyes.

His lips had been tightly pursed constantly from the beginning. His eyes were filled with endless darkness, and no one could see his emotions and thoughts clearly.

When the two were in the middle of their conversation, he suddenly parted his thin lips.

"Since the marriage didn't succeed back then, it could just mean that the two families didn't have fate."

His words stunned the other three people on the spot. They looked at Maddox in surprise.

Monica was originally very delicate. She had always hoped that Maddox would spare some glances at her. After all, she had put on effort to dress up beautifully that day. However, he had never glanced at her.

When he finally raised his head, Monica straightened her back even more. However, who would have thought that in the next second, the words that came out of his mouth would be like a wet blanket thrown on her, causing her to feel a bone-chilling coldness.

"What, what did you say?" Titan narrowed his eyes and sized Maddox up.

Jarold was also caught off guard. He had thought that in front of Titan, this grandson of his, would not reject his proposal. Who would have thought that he would actually...

"The times are no longer the same as our parents' in the past. I understand that you older generations prefer arranged marriages, but Master Dormer's granddaughter and I are both millennials who believe in the freedom to choose one's partner. I think she already has someone in mind, and I also have certain standards in seeking a partner."
