Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon) novel Chapter 383

Chapter 383 

Mr. Roberts? 

She showed some respect towards him. 

Forget it. She must still be simmering with anger. 

After a moment of silence, Frank picked up a drink. His eyes darkened a little as he clinked his glass against Ava’s. His tone was natural, and no one could tell that there was anything different. It seemed to be a simple greeting. He replied politely. “It was nothing. You’re welcome” 

Didn’t he say that he wanted to woo her? Why was he so cold again? Hmph, she would just express her gratitude casually. 

As the conversation unfolded, Ava raised her head and took a determined sip from her glass. The crystal cup seemed to tremble slightly in her tightly clenched hand, causing her fair fingers to pale under the pressure. Her youthful innocence made it difficult for her to hide her emotions, and her small mouth pouted, accentuating the subtle bulge of her cheeks. 

Jasper imitated her actions. It was exactly the same. Frank did not turn to look at the girl beside him, but he knew the answer from the face of Trevon’s son. He smiled. 

He lowered his eyes and took out his phone. He typed. “It’s worth it. 

Ava’s phone dinged. She took it out and checked the message. What did it mean? Did it mean that she was worth it? 

“Ah ah, calm down.” 

Ava felt a slight blush on her face, and her ears turned warm. She could hear the strong and resounding throb of her heart. With both hands covering her face to cool down, her lips curled up, and she couldn’t contain her happiness. Deep down, she scolded herself for being so easily excitable and losing her composure over his words. 

Alex turned his head to get food. When he saw Ava’s red face, he asked in confusion. “Ava, why is your face red? Is it hot?” 

Alex continued, “It shouldn’t be hot. There are ice cubes around. It’s very cool. 

A single sentence made everyone at the table turn their heads towards Ava. Jasper was no exception. Mimicking Ava’s actions, he placed both hands on the table, covering his face and patting it gently while wiggling his little bottom on Trevon lap. 

With a smack, Jasper’s bottom received a light tap, causing his little flesh to jiggle a few times. It had great elasticity. 

Since arriving in Sapphire City, he truly came alive. His vibrant personality shined through as he exuded a newfound liveliness. 

Truly, the character of children was molded by the distinct ambiance of their upbringing. The Turner family resembled a tranquil harbor, radiating a sense of warmth, love, and contentment. Their home breathed with an invigorating vitality, akin to the carefree growth of goldfish in a bubbling stream, unhindered and full of life. 

It seemed that the atmosphere of the Wilson family had to be changed. 

Trevon’s action diverted Ava’s attention and reduced a lot of the awkwardness. For a moment, everyone’s attention was on Jasper. 

Natalie elbowed him to express his dissatisfaction. Why did he pat his son for no reason? “What are you doing? Children are born like this.” 

After speaking, she gently rubbed the spot where her son had been smacked, feeling a wave of heartache. This man’s hands were so big, and the impact area was quite substantial. It would be strange if it didn’t hurt. 

Trevon naturally noticed her expression of concern and gestured her, indicating for her to let her see where her son was now wiggling. 

Natalie looked in the direction he was pointing at. Natalie’s face was also slightly blushed as if she was slightly drunk. 

She secretly pinched his thigh under the table, but Trevon didn’t even flinch, maintaining a calm expression. 

No matter how happy the atmosphere was, there would be times when they would be separated. Wasn’t the adult world constantly saying goodbye? 

Rose gracefully rose from her seat, lifting her glass with a confident smile. With a single hand, she held a shining can of beer and playfully swayed it before their eyes. “Dear,” she declared, her voice filled with warmth, “tonight, I will be returning to Athana. Let us raise our glasses and toast to the enduring bond of our friendship, as steadfast as the finest gold.”‘ 

The women all stood up, ignoring the men at the table. One by one, they clinked glasses with each other while saying. 

The women raised their glasses in unison and clinked their glasses. The crisp sound echoed like glass music. 

The simple farewell ceremony ended. 

After they sat down, Trevon asked Rose, “Since you’re so dedicated, do you want me to help you apply for a few more days 

of leave?” 

Indeed, Trevon’s ability was impressive. However, Rose came with the purpose of cheering up Ava and also pulling Frank along, all while boosting her own popularity. Once the mission was accomplished, she needed to return to her position. 

She was indeed a driven and ambitious individual. Although she could easily live off her family’s wealth and laze around, she didn’t want to waste her potential. She refused, saying. “No need. I have a strong work ethic. Besides, I’ve already taken. four days off right after starting my job, which is already an exception. If it weren’t for my persistent persuading, my leave wouldn’t have been approved. I want to go back and do my job properly.” 

Ava was very touched, but she was also curious. How could a person who had just started working be able to take so many days off? With the Roberts family’s power, it was possible, but with her understanding of Rose, she would not do that. 

“Rose, what excuse did you find to take so many days of!!” 

Ava was embarrassed. After all, she had taken so many days off to watch her competition. She hadn’t had a chance to spend. time with her. 

It was probably early in the morning when she returned to Athana. She still had to work tomorrow. 

Ava’s heart was filled with guilt 

As Rose took a sip of her beer, an unexpected question caused her to spew it out uncontrollably. Unfortunately, Frank, sitting innocently beside her, bore the brunt of her outburst. Acting swiftly, he pulled an empty chair from the nearby table, sliding his own chair closer to create some distance. With a quick motion, he grabbed a handful of napkins and deftly wiped off the beer that had splattered onto his arm. 

“Even if the manor doesn’t have a fountain, it’s not your place to entertain.” 

Frank said unhappily. 

Unbeknownst to Ava, she had been staring at Rose without realizing that the man beside her had already taken a seat by her side. They were now only less than an inch away, but Ava remained oblivious as her small eyes continued to wait for a response. “Are you okay?” she asked, genuinely concerned. 

Rose waved her hand. Her chin was still dripping with beer. She took four tissues to wipe it. Because of her guilty conscience, she did not argue with Frank. She only glared at him unhappily. 

If not for the fact that she had used him as an excuse to apply for leave, she would definitely have sprayed another glass at Cranky’s face. 

Rose imagined the painting in her mind. It was satisfying… 

After fantasizing about it, she started to lie. She casually grabbed the ends of her hair and said, “Well, I just found a random reason. Our hospital’s personnel are especially good.” 

Sherri and Natalie, well aware of the situation, struggled to hide their laughter. They had conspired together to come up with plausible excuses, but Rose had stubbornly followed her own path. With a mischievous twinkle in their eyes, they exchanged a quick glance before stealing a glimpse at Frank. His narrowed eyes hinted at his suspicion towards Rose’s unexpected behavior. 

Changing the topic, she said to Ava, “Ava, I will wait for you at Athana” 

She hoped that the next time she picked Ava up, she would call her sister-in-law. It was rare for Frank to like a girl. If he could not bring her home, he was really afraid that he would become a monk. This was what Rose thought as he looked at 

Ava. 

Ava smiled. A ray of light shone on her and she smiled charmingly. “Okay 

Rose then said to Alex. Welcome to Athana. I quite like your personality.” 

Alex gave an extremely handsome OK and held it in the air. 

In order to lighten the mood. Hackett suggested playing cards. It was also a way to vent the frustration that built up during the flight, which had been delayed for several hours. Today was the day to turn things around. 

Trevon and the others were playing a game with four players in each round. 

Alex glanced at the remaining people and secretly counted four people. She suggested. “Let’s play cards too. Ava, do you 

” 

“Ah… Oh Ava lowered her gaze and answered. Her heartbeat at night was still abnormal. 

Jasper folded the cards that they had thrown out. He was playing happily. 

He even caused trouble from time to time and participated in the card game. “Bomb” 

Hackett smiled and shrugged. If you hang around in front of your father, you’ll be like a bomb.” 

Jasper chimed in. “My card is Bomb. Isn’t It Amazing?” 

Rose felt that playing cards was boring. No matter what, there had to be a prize. Moreover, unknown prizes were more fanciful. Just like the last time. Frank lent her his phone, he asked her to bring it up casually. 

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this idea was especially good. 

Rose said, “Let’s gamble on something. We don’t gamble on money. I don’t have a lot of money.” 

Sherri quickly replied. “Rose, are you serious?” 

Frank exposed her. “Transfer the money back 

Rose subconsciously covered her pocket. “I earned it with my intelligence. Why should I give it to you? I won’t.” 

Without the photos taken by her, how could he know about Ava’s private room, the diamond chair, or see how she looked while holding flowers? If it was not because of her generosity, that 600 thousand dollars could not satisfy her. She wouldn’t budge unless it reached 20 million dollars. 

Alex was afraid that they would gamble. After all, she didn’t have any. She had heard that wealthy families often had hundreds of thousands of dollars. She couldn’t afford it. This was her first time coming to Ava’s house. She originally Thought that Ava’s family was just not bad. 

Since this man was able to enter the Turner family, his family background was also very good. However, it seemed that he developed an inexplicable sense of inferiority. 

Seeing that they did not say anything. Rose quickly said, “Then I’ll state my conditions. In order to comfort the loser, I think the winning party has to agree to three conditions of the loser” 

Sherri believed that Rose had a wild imagination and came up with an unconventional idea. 

Hackett kicked Frank. “Is Rose an alien? Her thoughts are different from ordinary people.”
