Chapter 356
Ava had learned quite a bit in just half an hour. Excited, she turned to look at Frank, and her lips brushed against his. At this moment, she couldn’t look away from his burning gaze.
Once again, Frank passionately kissed her while slowly turning her around. After a while, he gently laid her on the bed. Out of habit, Ava locked Frank’s neck with her arms. She liked that feeling which gave her a sense of security and belonging
Frank hugged Ava’s waist, feeling the nice silky material Suppressing the desire to explore everything that was under the silk. Frank pulled away from the kiss and placed his hands on Ava’s waist, towering over her. His eyes were slightly red as he said. “Sleep.
Then, he lay down on the side and quickly pulled the blanket over Ava. Instantly, the blanket suppressed his burning emotions. Reluctant, he rubbed her delicate lips. Stop fooling around. Go to bed.”
Ava’s hands were tightly clasped together under the blanket. “Frank-”
Frank seemed to know what Ava wanted to say. He smiled and shook his head, interrupting her by pinching her blush
cheeks
However, tears soon well up in Ava’s eyes. She thought, “How deeply does a man love a woman to control his desires because he couldn’t bear to hurt her” Touched, she hid in his arms under the blanket and hugged him tightly. “Can you wait until I fall asleep before you leave?”
“Okay Sleep” A light kiss landed on Ava’s forehead.
It was late at night, and the world was asleep. Ava was sleeping very quietly, but Frank could not fall asleep. Instead, he stared at her sleeping face under the dim light.
Ava was quiet and cute. like a pure white lower that could not be tainted, and he wished to always protect her.
Her hair was pushed to the sides of her face, and Frank slowly imprinted Ava’s exquisite features into his mind. After a while. he pulled her into his arms with mixed feelings.
Ten minutes later, he stood up and left. He gently closed the door and opened Rose’s room.
Rose thought that Frank would not enter her room and had already fallen asleep on the bed.
The next morning. Natalie and Trevon woke up early. They dressed up and went downstairs to find Mary in the living room.
Natalie greeted politely, “Mary?”
Mary replied happily. “Mrs. Wilson, Mr. Wilson said you need someone to care for you! That’s why I came over. Don’t worry! I can take good care of you and Jasper.”
Natalie thanked her politely She believed in Mary’s meticulousness. “Thank you, Mary
Mary wiped her hands on her apron. “It’s my pleasure! I’m honored that such an important task is handed to me.”
After breakfast, Natalie and Trevon went to the Wilson’s residence to deal with some matters. Before departing. Trevon wanted to give Frank a call, but after thinking about it, he decided not to. Trevon guessed that Ava should have slept in Deepwater Bay last night.
Instead, he called Jim. “Go to the Roberts family and bring the person to the Wilson’s residence.”
After that, he hung up and drove to the Wilson’s residence.
Carlos had arrived early at the Wilson’s residence and had been waiting for Trevon. Unaware of the situation, Peggy thought that Natalie, her new daughter-in-law, would greet them. Little did Peggy know that Theo, who doted on Natalie, had exempted her from this segment.
Seeing them enter, Carlos, who was already dissatisfied, became even more gloomy. He criticized, Trevon, you should. teach Natalie the rules of our household. Our elders have already arrived, but as the newest member of the family, why hasn’t she arrived yet? How could she make us wait for half an hour? Isn’t she putting on airs?”
Trevon acted as if he did not hear Carlos speaking and sat down on the sofa on the other side. Theo seemed to have blocked Carlos’ question and asked with concern. “Did you eat breakfast?”
Natalie answered, “Grandpa, Dad, Mom, I ate before coming over.”
She did not greet Carlos and his family and her attitude made Carlos even angrier. He snorted. “Look at how disrespectful
she is!”
Then, Rachel took the initiative to sit down, saying, “Jasper is still sleeping. We had too much fun last night and stayed up a
little late.”
“Thank you for taking care of him, Mom”
Rachel gave a slight response.
It seemed that giving a short response was a strong trait in this family.
Trevon held Natalie’s hand and leaned back on the sofa. Then, he looked at Carlos and his family casually.
Max, Ted, Peggy, and Carlos were present except for Emily
Max looked a little silly, not sure if it was because he was crippled, so he had dark circles under his eyes. His complexion. wasn’t great as well. Perhaps he had some psychological problems.
Looking at his unfocused gaze, Natalie’s first thought was that he had gone crazy from taking too much medicine. She heard from the servant that Max had been taking medicine for treatment recently.
Trevon did not want to ask and pretended not to see him. Instead, he turned his sharp gaze to Carlos. “Carlos, have you been thinking of being vegan for a while? If you do, I have some good recommendations.”
His tone was no longer respectful.
Carlos was stunned by Trevon’s sharp gaze but quickly adjusted his emotion. “What do you mean by that? Why are you being so sarcastic early in the morning?”
Peggy added, “That’s right. My father was just asking you to teach Natalie some house rules.”
Trevon retorted, “I don’t think there’s a problem with my wife’s rules. Her rules are my rules. At the very least, my wife won’t do anything fratricidal or think about murder at will. What do you think, Carlos? Is that the truth?”
After that, he quickly added. “What can be more unruly than murder and arson? There shouldn’t be any, right? What do guys think?”
Ted replied faintly, “Yes.”
you
Peggy didn’t know what was going on. Why was Trevon talking about murder and arson? Then, she urged, “It’s getting late. We still have to go to the hospital later. Max is undergoing treatment now. Natalie, hurry up if you want to pay your respect.
Rachel looked at Peggy as if she was looking at a fool. Then, she frowned slightly. “Do we have to go through this ritual?”
Peggy widened her eyes in shock. “You want to skip such an important ritual?”
Rachel’s face was cold. “Yes.”
Peggy argued, “You should’ve told us earlier. You’re wasting our time! Besides, who wouldn’t go through this ritual as a new family member?”
Peggy rambled on, expressing her dissatisfaction.
Ted was speechless.
Carlos’s expression darkened as he could guess the true meaning of Trevon’s words. He felt vaguely uneasy but he couldn’t get through to any of his bodyguards
Rachel asked, “Did I notify you that I want to perform the ritual? Didn’t you come uninvited?”
Peggy was speechless. You…”
Theo could not be bothered to watch them argue. Feeling uncomfortable, he said to Trevon, who was watching the show. “Bring the person over. Let thein leave after settling the matter.”
Jim received the message and dragged the person in. The person’s face was brutally beaten up, and it was obvious that Grace’s men showed no mercy.
When the people in the living room saw the person whose face and clothes were covered in blood, they couldn’t help but gasp.
Carlos definitely knew who this person was. Yet, he pretended to say, “What’s the meaning of this? You’re not going to perform the ritual and you’re even bringing such an unlucky person into our home?”
Trevon teased. “Unlucky? Isn’t this your personal bodyguard? The one working in the dark. Don’t tell me I caught the wrong person?”
Carlos’ back stiffened and he refused to admit it. “I don’t know who he is. Don’t slander me
However, Trevon didn’t want to waste any more time. It seemed they had to take desperate measures so he gave Jim a look. Immediately. Jim took out a recording pen from his pocket and pressed the button “You have to kill Caleb Wilson today! Remember to destroy the evidence. If you don’t do it properly. I will make sure you’re dead!”
The bodyguard said, “Mr. Wilson, I’m sorry. It was my negligence.”
Carlos replied, “Useless fool! How could you fail at such an easy task? You can’t even kill someone by crashing them with car. Tell me! What’s the point of hiring you?”
The voice message was played one by one, and there were many more shameful incident. The last recording by the bodyguards was Jasper’s car accident.
Carlos said, “Ive received news that Natalie Foster’s child is Trevon’s biological son. Find a way to track her down and kill the child when the chance prevails. Max’s child must be born first. As long as the eldest son doesn’t have a child, the second son will inherit the Wilson family.”
The bodyguard replied, “Mr. Wilson, the maid used her life to protect that child. 1-*
The sound of Carlos smashing his phone could be heard in the recording. It was obvious that he was furious.
After the recording ended, the living room was silent. Ted turned to look at hus father. “Dad, did you really do all these?” Seeing that the evidence was irrefutable, Carlos admitted it. He did not expect this traitor to record every mission that was given to him. In the end, he said. “Yes. I did it. I want to break the Wilson family’s stupid rules. Why is the eldest son only eligible to inherit the family business? How am I inferior to you? I’m restricted because of the family rules!”
The bodyguard said. “Mr. Carlos Wilson also ordered me to think of a way to kidnap Jasper in exchange for the Wilson family’s position during Trevon’s wedding. However, for some reason, the wedding schedule was changed. I couldn’t find Jasper at all, so the mission failed”
After a pause, the body guard confessed everything he knew in order to make a contribution. “However, Mr. Wilson had a backup plan and even hired a lot of assassins to ambush at the wedding. If my plan fails, someone will kill Mr. Wilson at the wedding”
The wedding schedule was suddenly changed because Natalie was pregnant. Trevon communicated with the host overnight, so not many people knew about it. Besides, why did they have to inform so many people about the wedding schedule? However, Carlos did not feel that he was in the wrong at all. Instead, he voiced out his doubts to Trevon. “Why did you change the wedding schedule? Have you always been guarding against me?”
At this moment. Trevon’s eyes were filled with malice Tm afraid you think too highly of yourself. If I say that I care more about my wife, won’t it be a bigger blow to you?”
