Chapter 1434Chapter 1434 Baby Photo
Titus' fingers trembled in excitement when he saw Sonia walking over to her. His gaze burned with
passion as he stared at her.
His daughter was finally willing to move closer to him.
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebook"Sonny," Titus called out in a warm tone.
She avoided his excited gaze and grabbed his phone. The first photo she saw on the phone screen
was of an expressionless old woman.
While Pauline's face was blank, she did not look cold and callous at all. Instead, Sonia could see a
glimmer of warmth in Pauline's eyes.
Was this Pauline Gray, Sonia's grandmother?
The woman in the photo seemed to be over 70 years old and was seated on a wooden armchair.
She sat up straight and proper, exuding a graceful air that instantly told the viewer that this was a
woman born and bred in a rich and powerful family. Despite her age, Pauline did not seem frail at all.
Sonia could even vaguely see just how beautiful Pauline was when she was younger.
"She's gorgeous." Toby had shuffled over to stand behind her and look at the photo over her shoulder. For some reason, his comment made her heart swell with pride. Of course, she was gorgeous; Pauline
was her grandmother.
However, she soon realized that although the woman was supposed to be her grandmother, she did
not have any recollections of the woman. The realization rendered her speechless.
"Yes, she is," she calmly responded.
"The two of you do look alike." Toby glanced down at the photo once more before looking up at Sonia's
face. "I now know what you might look like when you're older."
She held a hand up to her face. "You said I resemble her. Naturally, that means I'll look like her when
I'm old, right?"
"Yes. You're both equally beautiful," Toby replied with a chuckle.
Her cheeks blushed red. She angrily shot him a look before turning her attention back to the photo and
rubbing a thumb over it.
The more she looked at it, the closer she felt to the woman. It might be the draw of their blood.
Titus stared at the two of them in admiration.
Toby seemed to love Sonia so much that Titus did not need to worry about anyone bullying Sonia after
his death. Toby would love her and protect her for the rest of their lives.
"I also have a photo of your grandfather. If you're interested, I can show them to you," Titus abruptly
said.
Sonia was stunned by his offer.
Titus even had a photo of her grandfather.
She had some ideas about what her grandmother was like after listening to Toby and Titus speak of
Pauline. However, she knew nothing of her grandfather.
Seeing that, Titus said, "He passed away years ago. I was around ten years old back then. Despite the
decades that had passed, I kept the photos back then. If not for them, I would have forgotten him by
now. That's why I can't tell you what kind of man he was. After all, he died quite young and I did not
know much about him. The only thing I knew was that he was someone who treated the younger
generations well."
"Aww… Did he?" she mumbled under her breath as her fingers began to tap and slide until she found a
somewhat blurred photo.
On it was a man dressed in an outfit typical of the 1960s.
He seemed rather young in his twenties and was sitting up straight while grinning brightly at the
camera.
He looked very much like Titus; this must be Titus' father, her grandfather. It was Toby's first time seeing a photo of the Stanley Gray, also known as the Old Mr. Gray. After taking
a few seconds to stare at it, he nodded. "No wonder you look so beautiful. Your grandparents had
beautiful genes."
He was praising Sonia.
She blushed. "Stop flirting."
"I'm telling the truth." He held his chin up high. "Our child will only look even more beautiful."
Sonia was certain of that as well.
Toby and she were quite attractive. A child that inherited both of their genes would only look even more
attractive.
She returned the phone to Titus and stroked her belly.
He accepted the phone with trembling fingers. "Are you done with the photos?"
"I've seen everything I need. There's nothing else to see," she calmly replied.
Titus sighed. "I have many more photos of you as a baby. Are you sure you don't want to look at
them?"
"As a baby..." Sonia bit her lip. She had not expected her baby photos to be stored on his phone.
Before she could reply, Toby spoke up. "I have never seen your baby photos."
Titus swiftly handed the phone over to Toby.
Suddenly, Titus felt like sighing.
He knew about how Toby was hypnotized by Tina.
He never once thought about befriending the Fullers, and now, he could not afford to.
That was until Tina one day suddenly told him she was dating Toby. He could not believe it. After all,
there was a great distance between the Grays' and the Fullers' social statuses. Tina should not even
have a chance to interact with Toby, so how could they have gotten together?
Tina was not lying though. She said she found out by chance that Toby was Sonia's pen pal. Since
there was a high chance Toby was in love with Sonia, she pretended to be Sonia and met up with him.
She thought Toby would be fooled by her act, but he instantly knew that she was not Maple. Hence,
she reluctantly hired an amazing master in hypnotism to hypnotize Toby into believing she was Maple.
That was how she got to date him.
At first, Titus did not agree with her actions. It felt too risky. Sooner or later, her lies would be exposed.
The Fullers would viciously strike back at them for that.
However, when he found out Tina was after Sonia's man, he agreed with the plan. He had detested
everyone in the Reeds back then. Tina stealing Sonia's man felt like Sonia had lost to Titus once more.Hence, he helped clean up after Tina while solidifying Tina's act as Maple.
He had anticipated the two of them to keep dating until Toby became his son-in-law. The Grays did not
have to worry about a rocky future then. They might even grow to be even more powerful than before.
Who knew that Toby would end up breaking free of the hypnotism, found the real Maple, and left before
he turned into Titus' son-in-law?
Nevertheless, after all that had happened, Toby still ended up as Titus' son-in-law. This time, Toby was
no longer the husband of Titus' adopted daughter. Instead, he was tying the knot with Titus' actual
daughter.
Toby was ignorant of the thoughts flashing through Titus' mind and focused on looking through the
phone's photos to find a photo of a baby.
In the photo, the baby was so pink when curled up in the white blanket while being carefully held by a
man in a green military uniform.
This was undoubtedly Titus, and he looked so young in the photo. His posture might be a little
awkward, but he was carefully supporting the baby's head and neck. It was evident just how careful
Titus was with the baby.
There was a faint but bright grin on his lips. It was clear to all just how happy he was at Sonia's birth.
This should be a photo of the day Sonia was born. From the way Titus was dressed in hospital visitor
gear, it was evident the baby had just been born. There was even a time stamp on the bottom right corner.
Toby raised an eyebrow and handed the phone to Sonia. "Do you see this? This tiny thing was you?"
