Question Pausing Dotween

hello
I'm using DoTween in my project and trying to implement a pause system, which DoTween seems to ignore.

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. using UnityEngine;
3. using DG.Tweening;
4. [RequireComponent(typeof(DOTweenAnimation))]
5. public class DoAffactByPause : MonoBehaviour
6. {
7.  
8.     DOTweenAnimation _anim;
9.     public Transform _transform;
10.     bool paused = false;
11.  
12.     // Start is called before the first frame update
13.     void Awake()
14.     {
15.         _transform=transform;
16.         _anim = GetComponent<DOTweenAnimation>();
17.     }
18.     void Update()
19.     {
20.         if (PauseManager.Pause && !paused)
21.         {
22.             Pause();
23.         }
24.         else if (!PauseManager.Pause && paused)
25.         {
26.             Unpause();
27.         }
28.     }
29.  
30.     void Pause()
31.     {
32.         DOTween.Pause(_transform);
33.         paused = true;
34.     }
35.     void Unpause(){
36.         DOTween.Play(_transform);
37.         paused = false;
38.     }
39. }
40.  

the script is implemented on the same transform in which the animation runs.
What did I miss?

Edit: I did manage to stop it when using the obvious Time.timescale=0.
However it would like a solution that doesn't affect the whole scene necessarily.
