Chapter 509
While the people downstairs were still discussing enthusiastically, Christina, who was upstairs, was anxious to know what Joseph had said at the Roberts family’s residence.
From the smiles on her parents’ faces, it could be seen that they were very satisfied with Joseph, especially from her mother’s attitude. Angie came just short of forcing Christina to get married on the spot.
Her mother automatically interpreted her reason for hiding the truth as not wanting Joseph to come to their home. It was really amazing.
Christina looked up their chatroom on the phone and typed, [Did my mom invite you to come to my place?]
The message from Joseph came quickly. [Yes, your mother is very enthusiastic. I can’t refuse her kindness. Can I go? If I don’t go, it will seem very rude of me.]
Christina stared at the message. Was this the time to be polite? Shouldn’t it be a problem of their deception possibly being exposed? Should they not talk about how to deal with the matter?
Why did it feel like everyone was not on the same wavelength as her? Who was actually on point here?
Immediately after, Joseph sent, [Your mother also invited Frank.
Joseph’s messages were an inquiry even though he did not phrase them as questions. He prioritized Christina’s thinking. This move made Christina, who had always been straightforward, not know how to reply.
The photoshopped photos would probably not work anymore. They couldn’t act it out in person, right? It didn’t seem appropriate. It wouldn’t be good for him to reject her mother’s invitation too. She replied, [Sure.]
The door was pushed open, and Stella, who looked disheveled, came in. The first thing she said when she entered was, “Christina, I’ve finished memorizing the employee manual. I stayed up late last night to read it.”
Christina put away her phone and turned it face down. “Yes. Do you need me to help you resign from your job or are you going to do it yourself?”
Stella looked reluctant. She scratched her head and yawned drowsily. She wiped the tears from her eyes with the back of her hand. “I’ll go myself. I have to say goodbye. Can’t I simply continue to stay there?” Stella struggled for one last time and said tentatively.
Christina answered bluntly without giving her a chance. “Sure. Your pocket money will end from now on. You can be self-sufficient.”
Stella raised her hands in surrender. Her salary was definitely not enough for her to be self-sufficient. “Don’t. I was wrong. I’ll resign at once.” She sighed.
After saying that, Stella scratched her head reluctantly. Christina did not want her sister to go to seed this way. Regardless of whether Stella got married or not in the future, she had to have her own career.
After Frank and Ava woke up, the whole family went to the Wilson’s residence for lunch.
The reason was that Trevon had airlifted a few boxes of seafood and invited the Roberts family and their guests to join them.
Downstairs, the elders gathered together and chatted, while the younger generation was hiding upstairs.
Theo’s mellow voice sounded. “William, you’re still so handsome. You haven’t aged at all.”
William liked to hear this. He laughed. “Theo, it’s so happy to chat with you again. You’re still so good at speaking after so many years.”
Grace was silent. No matter where William went, he would always be narcissistic. Fortunately, his son did not inherit this gene.
Grace said, “Sorry to be a bother, Theo.”
Theo waved his hand. “I can’t wait for you guys to come and disturb me every day. Look at how much more lively it is to have everyone here. It’s one huge family interconnected via marriages.”
Emma and Daniel nodded in agreement.
Theo was so happy that he kept grinning. The passage of time showed on his face. His hands still gripped firmly onto his walking stick.
He was like an ancient camphor tree standing in its spot, sheltering everyone from the wind and rain. In the end, when it dried up, the rings of growth rings were the best evidence for the years it had witnessed.
Lena said that she wanted to go back to the Foster’s residence today. Tucker also wanted to go when he heard that. He had never stepped into the Foster’s residence before. After he became sensible, he could only hide in a corner and watch his grandfather play with his sister in the courtyard. He was very envious.
In the end, Natalie asked Lena to bring Tucker back to the Foster’s residence and said to Lena, “Maybe Grandpa misses
Tucker too.”
Upstairs, Trevon was changing his two daughters’ diapers. He skillfully lifted two feet with one hand and placed the diaper between her buttocks. After estimating the distance of the diaper, he gently put her buttocks on it and fastened the tape on both sides. After that, he was done with changing the diaper.
Frank, who was leaning lazily at the side, was dumbfounded. He could not help but laugh and tease Trevon. “You’re quite proficient at this.”
Trevon ignored him and continued to change the second diaper Ava stood at the side and was stunned. If she recorded a video of him changing diapers and posted it online, the internet would probably explode.
It would definitely become the number one trending topic.
Ava held onto the girl’s little hand with one hand and kept shaking it. As soon as the diaper was fastened on one side, the girl let out a loud fart.
The brand-new diaper no longer needed to be fastened. It needed to be changed again. Frank stood at the door with interest, ready to watch and see who would change it later.
Natalie got up and went to the bathroom to get a basin of warm water. She placed it aside and was about to help her daughter wash her buttocks when the disposable towel in her hand was taken away by Trevon. “I’ll do it. You talk to Ava for a while.”
Trevon did not leave. He continued with the diaper-changing process skillfully. Frank was bored. He walked closer and turned on the camera to film Trevon in the act. “Here now. I’ll help you record your best moment.”
Trevon first used a disposable tissue to wipe the girl’s buttocks clean before repeatedly washing her with warm water and then applying a new diaper.
Natalie, who stood at the side, was his assistant. She either handed over a towel or the trash can. After changing, the servant came to clean up the trash in the room.
Frank smiled and sent the video to the group chat.
Hackett directly commented in the group chat. [Fuck! I’m also changing diapers.]
Frank was speechless. Then, Hackett asked Sherri to help take a photo of him changing diapers.
