Chapter 176

When Shane opened his door, the apartment door opposite him just happened to open as well. Yulia

was about to take out the trash when she saw Shane. “You... Aren’t you the Thompson boy?”

Yulia pointed at Shane with uncertainty.

Shane raised his brows. “Hello, Yulia!”

Silas snickered behind Shane because that was the first time he heard anyone call Shane a boy.

Suddenly, Silas could feel an icy cold glare on him. He quickly swallowed his snicker when he realized

that it came from Shane.

Only then did Shane spare his assistant.

Yulia could not help chuckling at the two’s interaction. “You’re Shane, right?”

Shane nodded in response. “That’s right.”

“Can I call you Shane?” asked Yulia gently.

Shane raised his chin slightly. “Sure.”

“It’s a deal then.” Yulia then clapped her hands when she suddenly remembered something. “You

probably don’t know me, Shane. I’m... “

“I know. You’re Natalie’s mother and my Grandpa’s goddaughter,” interrupted Shane.

Yulia smiled and nodded. “So you knew! Do you also know that your Grandpa and I arranged for you to

marry Nat?”

“I do, but it’s just not possible anymore. Sorry,” apologized Shane softly as he looked down.

However Silas did not agree with Shane. “It’s not your fault that it didn’t work out, Mr. Shane. You didn’t

have to apologize because the fault lies with Ms. Natalie.”

“That’s enough! Shut it,” rebuked Shane, so Silas stopped talking.

The smile on Yulia started to fade when she heard the two. “Shane, you’re not happy with the

arrangement I made with your grandfather, are you?”

Why else would they think it’s my daughter’s fault?

Shane pursed his lips without answering the question.

At first, he did dislike the fact that he was forced into a marriage, but he said nothing about it because it

did not matter to him who he would marry.

Seeing how Shane was keeping silent, Yulia’s eyes darkened, and her face was filled with guilt. “I’m

sorry, Shane. Your grandfather and I should’ve been more considerate. The truth is I never had any

plans to arrange a marriage for you and Nat. It’s just that your grandfather said he’ll only leave in peace

if your marriage is arranged beforehand. That’s why... “

“Yulia, do you know how my Grandpa died?” Shane interrupted suddenly and loudly. The man’s usually

calm face seemed anxious at that moment.

“Who are you talking to, Mom?” Natalie’s voice came from behind Yulia.

Immediately afterwards, Natalie stepped out in her slippers and was shocked when she saw her boss.

“Mr. Shane!”

Shane ignored Natalie and continued to keep his eyes on Yulia.

Unsure of what was going on, Natalie also turned to look at her mother.

After a few seconds of silence, Yulia suddenly sighed, “As a matter of fact, I do.”

“Then, please tell me now!” demanded Shane with his fists clenched tightly.

His grandfather’s had always haunted him.

Back then, the family doctor said that David was tough and that he could at least live another ten years.

However, David suddenly passed away one day seven years ago, so Shane was sure that something

was wrong. Although the grandson never stopped looking into it, he did not find anything.

“Your grandfather killed himself!” revealed Yulia as she lifted the head to look Shane in the eyes.

Natalie covered her mouth in shock, while Silas widened his eyes.

Gritting his teeth, Shane was the only one who refused to believe the revelation. “That’s impossible!”

Why would Grandpa take his own life?

What reason would he have to do that?

“It’s true. Your grandfather told me that himself.” Yulia was dead serious.

Shane moved his lips and requested with a hoarse voice, “Then tell me. Why did he do it?”

“I don’t know the exact reason, but I met with your grandfather the day before he died. He said the

regret and guilt inside were crushing him and it was so bad that he could barely breathe. After we’ve

arranged your marriage, he said he was ready to go make amends to your parents.” Yulia patted

Shane’s shoulder.
