Chapter 224
Rose’s arm was still around Ava’s shoulder when they walked out of the airport. However, from Frank’s angle, he could see that Ava was still in shock while Rose looked happy
It was apparent that Ava did not know about their relationship. She must be dumbfounded by the news.
Frank placed Roses suitcases into the trunk of his Porsche. He then leaned lazily against the driver’s door, his entire body slouched on the car. He started to smoke, his hand holding a cigarette. When he saw Rose, he threw the cigarette on the ground and stepped on it
After putting out the cigarette, he opened the car door and got into the driver’s seat. He rolled down the window and placed on hand on the ledge. He shouted offhandedly at Rose. “Are you leaving””
Hearing this. Rose cast a glance at Frank and slowly released Ava’s shoulder. She then patted Ava’s shoulder. “Ava, let me put my stuff at home first. I’ll bring you to a fun place tonight. As your sister and Sherri to come along. It’s mt treat”
Ava was curious “Where are we going?”
Rose smiled mysteriously. It will be lots of fun. Wear something pretty Ah, forget it. You’re already very good-looking. I’ll leave Ill contact you later Goodbye!
Rose rushed to the front passenger seat and blew Ava a kiss before getting in
Ava stood at the door and watc
tched the Porsche drive off With her hands on her hips, she let out a sigh. She then turned to Ethan and asked. “Ethan, tell me Why are the personalities of children born from the same parents so different? Is it due to
genetic mutations””
Ethan dad not understand her question “Miss Ava, I don’t know anything about this matter, so I can’t give you the right
Ava waved her hand dismissively. “Forget it. I shouldn’t get too bothered about this. Let’s go back and get some sleep”
In the ca
car, Rose at the front passenger seat, looking relaxed.
Sensing the silence in the car, she started fiddling with the display screen. She grumbled, “What a lousy car”
Frank pretended not to hear her complaint. He did not even turn his head. “So you’ve decided to come back? Didn’t you say you’re going to stay in Sapphire City and not come back? I was planning to buy you a tombstone there.”
Rowe rolled her eyes. “I’ll come bas

want to. It is none of your business. Go on, play some soothing music. You’re so
Frank retorted. “If you’re so umurt don’t ever come back. And don’t step into my house.”
The two siblings had never gotten along since they were young. Whenever they met, they would start arguing. Rose despised Fra for not helping her whenever their parents chaded her Instead. Frank would always rub salt into her wound.
Over the years, their mutual dislike grew to the point where they were always in conflict with one another, resulting in a contentious relationship marked by constant barkering
Rose shamelessly shrugged Tm sorry I have no choice You can disown me as your sister if you dare. As long as you’re my brother you have to let me stay in your house. There’s nothing I can do”
She added “Besides, you’re always not home. You should thank me for looking after your house”
Frank glared hercely at her, but Rose was not intimidated. She even stuck out her tongue playfully and smirked. “You don’t have to thank me with such a look”
Frank muttered in his heart. Which kind of sister is she?” He said coldly to her. “Are you dying to get walloped?”
Rose ignored his question “Transfer some money to my bank account. I want to treat my little sister to a meal tonight.” Aghast to see her demanding money from him. Frank sneered, “What happened to your pride? Weren’t the one who declared you’d make a name for yourself? Seems like all your ego has vanished in Sapphire City”
you
Rose retorted. “Pride and ego are worthless. Ive thought it through. Why should I make things difficult for myself? It’s good to just laze around and do nothing I have a brother who is a millionaire. Why should I live like a pauper! From today onwards, you will have to support me”
Frank turned the steering wheel with one hand and tilted his head to look at Rose. He wondered what had happened to her When their parents did not allow her to go to Sapphire City, she threatened to sever ties with them. She was so rebellious then. What made her go back to him after staying in Sapphire City for a few years?”
“Are you sure there’s nothing wrong with you? Have you fallen out of love? Did you suffer some setback in life?”
Rose answered sharply. “Do you have any idea about my love life? Do you even know how many relationships you and Mum have interfered with on my behalf”
Frank kept quiet. He did not think he had done anything
ng concerning this matter. Neither did he want to explain
himself, even if Rose still had not gotten over it
Rose lounged on the back of the seat, looking like she had seen through life. Tve finally come to my senses. I read many novels recently and have a lot of thoughts about life. I want to enjoy life before I die. I’ll fall in love as I wish and go to work whenever I want to Ill enjoy life to the fullest. This is the true meaning of life”
Frank no longer wanted to argue with her. He was certain there was something wrong with Rose.
Her mind was filled with strange thoughts.
Meanwhile, at Grand Manor. Natalie had just woken up. A ray of sunlight sneaked in through the gap in the curtains. reflecting onto the pristine beddings and warming her heart.
Jasper had been waking up very late these few days. Most days, he only woke up at nine o’clock.
Natalie picked up her phone and looked at the time. It was already nine o’clock. Placing her phone back on the bedside table, she turned to look at Jasper, who was sleeping soundly beside her.
She looked at hun with adoring eyes.
Just then, the vibrating sound of her phone brought her back to her senses. She took up her phone again. It was a text message from Trevon [Are you awake?]
She slowly sat up and leaned her body against the headboard. She typed her reply. [I’m awake. Have you had breakfast?]
Trevon replied. [No. I want to have breakfast with you. What do you want to eat? I’ll get some food for you at the restaurant.]
A feeling of contentment washed over her. She felt a sense of deja vu as she thought about those times when both of them were dating. It was such a warm sensation thinking that someone was thinking of her and showing concern for her. [I want to milk, toast, and macaroni. Do they have low-fat macaroni in the restaurant? If not, just get some pasta for me.]
Trevon replied. I can surely find all the food you want. Even if the restaurant doesn’t have them. I’ll make sure I bring them to you.]
Natalie did not know how to respond to his reply. His words seemed to imply that he would see that her every need was taken care of and that she was his top priority. [All right then. I’ll go and wash up first. Oh, can you get a bowl of cereal for Jasper’]
Trevon said. [Yes, I’ll bring him some cereal with milk. He’s too short. He needs more nutrients for his body ]
Natalie was speechless.
His son was less than two years old. How could he compare to Trevon’s height of 59 feet? If a two-year-old child was that tall, he would be a monster.
Half an hour later, Trevon stood outside the door and pressed the doorbell. He was already dressed and holding their breakfast in his left hand.
Natalie had already washed up. She was not helping Jasper to get dressed when she heard the doorbell ring. Immediately. she got up to open the door. The first thing she noticed was the tray that Trevon was holding. It was full of all kinds of food. She reached out to help him, but he quickly moved aside. She did not insist. Instead, she asked, “Why did you bring so much food here**
The impeccably dressed Trevon placed the tray of food on the dining table and said, “I brought food for everyone else. We shouldn’t eat by ourselves.”
Natalie turned around and glanced at the closed bedroom door. She knew that Sherri was still sleeping. However, she thought it strange that Hackett did not follow Trevon to her room. “Why didn’t Mr. Blackwell come with you?”
Trevon said in disdain, “He spent the whole night on a video call with Miss Landor. He’s still asleep”
As soon as he finished speaking, he walked over and wrapped his left arm around her waist. He pulled her closer to him and kissed her lips. “Let’s have breakfast, okay?”
Both of them were standing in a rather compromising position. Natalie could feel her heart pounding faster. She blushed as Trevon leaned closer to her. He was going to kiss her again.
