Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon) novel Chapter 49

After Natalie left, Trevon was not in a good mood.

It was already past three in the morning when Trevon felt a little sleepy. He hugged her and fell asleep in a daze. Now that he woke up at seven, he only had four hours of sleep.

Trevon propped himself up and wanted to send Natalie to the hospital, but she didn't appreciate it at all. At the thought of this, Trevon remembered the sweater from last night.

It was also because Natalie was in a hurry to go to work in the morning that Mary had prepared a new set of clothes for her last night. Otherwise, Natalie would definitely have found her clothes lying on the floor.

This woman was constantly drawing a line between herself and Trevon.

Trevon's eyes were cold as he tidied his already meticulous suit and prepared to leave the Wilson's residence.

Theo could tell that Trevon was unhappy. He was secretly delighted. "How about having breakfast with me? Why are you standing there like a statue?"

Reluctantly, Trevon followed Theo into the dining room.

Theo picked up the bowl and took a sip of nutritional soup. Then, he picked up another hotdog and ate it slowly. Theo had no intention of saying anything to Trevon.

Trevon, on the other hand, ate tastelessly. After drinking a bowl of soup, he stopped eating.

Theo was in a good mood when he woke up early. He ate slowly. It was unusually delicious. After eating, he crossed his arms and leaned against the back of the chair. He looked at Trevon and said, "Tell me what your thoughts are now. Your marriage deadline with Natalie is about to expire. There are less than two months left, right?"

Trevon pursed his lips and remained silent.

Theo looked at his silent grandson and ignored his feelings. Theo continued, "I have thought it through. Since your marriage deadline is about to end and the two of you haven't cultivated any feelings for each other, as your mother said, a marriage without feelings is the grave of love. Besides, it's cold. So when your contract expires, and you want to get a divorce, I won't stop you. After all, feelings can't be forced. Probably, you are not a good match."

Trevon couldn't help but roll his eyes. Then why didn't Theo listen when he told him that they were not a good match?

Seeing that Trevon continued to remain silent, Theo felt even happier. "Before Barron died, he entrusted me with protecting Natalie for the rest of her life. I definitely have to fulfill my promise to him. Moreover, our entire family has to keep this promise. Even if I die, you still have to fulfill it. Therefore, I've thought about it again and again. After your divorce, Natalie will be alone. I can't let Barron down. I plan to wait for your divorce in two months and hold a banquet to let Natalie become one member of our family as my granddaughter."

This sentence successfully aroused the silent Trevon. It was as if someone had thrown a stone into a calm lake. Trevon suddenly raised his head and carefully observed the expression of Theo. "Grandpa, are you serious?"

Theo had a serious expression on his face. "What do you think? I'm already planning to hold a banquet to take her as my granddaughter. Do you think I'm joking?"

Theo interrupted Trevon, who was about to say something. "Don't think that I'm using this method to provoke you. Let me tell you. I've already discussed this with Gage the day Barron passed away."

Trevon objected. "Grandpa, do you think it's appropriate for her to be your granddaughter?"

Theo lied in all seriousness, "What's inappropriate about it? It's a secret marriage between you two. No one knows that you're husband and wife. After your divorce, Natalie will be my granddaughter. The quality of the husband I choose for her is comparable to yours. Don't think that just because you don't like her or anyone else, no one would like her. Perhaps after the divorce, the people who were wooing her could circle around Athana. With my granddaughter's qualifications, she can be with any high-quality man."

Trevon had never been so passive before. He was rendered speechless and could not find any reason to refute.

Gage, who was standing at the side serving them, added firewood and hurriedly said, "Yes, Mr. Trevon. After Barron passed away that night, Mr. Theo went to pay his respects. At that time, there were only Mrs. Natalie and two servants. The scene was very cold. Seeing Mrs. Natalie alone made our hearts ache, so that night, Mr. Theo made this decision. He had long planned to acknowledge Mrs. Natalie as his granddaughter."

Speaking of that night, Trevon recalled that his grandfather had called him. What did Trevon say at that time? In any case, Trevon had rejected Theo quite bluntly. He did not even go to the funeral the next day. Theo had asked Trevon to pick up Natalie. He had sent Jim to go.

Back then, Trevon wholeheartedly believed that Natalie was a scheming woman.

No matter how Trevon looked at her, it was an eyesore.

Theo sighed and said, "That's right. Natalie was taught very well by Barron. She's kind and not greedy. Moreover, she has good morals. For example, when I asked her to play chess with me yesterday, ordinary girls would come up to me and suck up to me. However, she didn't even let me repent and even lectured me."
