Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)

Chapter 247

In the afternoon, everyone was ready to leave. When they came, they came in three cars. When they

left, they still left in three cars.

However, there was a small change in the arrangements. When they arrived. Jim was the driver. Now

that they were leaving, Trevon was driving. Sitting in the front passenger seat was Natalie, and in the

back seats were Jasper and Ava.

The car had already driven a distance away from the dock. Ava was in a tickle fight with Jasper in the

backseat. They were having a lot of fun. No one would expect such a childish girl to be pursuing a man

so enthusiastically.

Natalie looked at the two playing in the back seat through the rearview mirror and asked curiously,

“Ava, aren’t you pursuing Frank? Why aren’t you sitting with Rose?”

Shouldn’t she take every chance to be with Frank so as to get closer to him? After all, she didn’t get to

see Frank often.

Ava stopped playing and kissed Jasper’s cheek loudly. Tll play with you later. I have to talk to your

Mom first.”

Then, she said to Natalie, who was in front of her, with a very serious expression, “I’ve got it all planned

out. I have to know when to advance and when to retreat. If I keep showing myself in front of him, he

definitely wouldn’t think of me. I have to hang around for a few days and disappear for a few days to

make him think of me. Distance makes the heart grow fonder. If he doesn’t miss me when I’m not

around, it only means that I haven’t attracted him enough yet. Then, I’d show myself in front of him

again.”

Natalie was rendered speechless. It was almost as if she was at war.

Natalie couldn’t help but laugh at Ava’s words. “Ava, where did you learn this from?”

Ava admitted generously. “Mom taught me. She said that I can’t be a bootlicker all the time. Otherwise,

he wouldn’t be able to appreciate me. He would only think that I’m unimportant. He’d only think of me

when I am gone.”

Natalie thought to herself. “She is treating Frank both as a hug and as a case study,”

She did not know if it would work or not.

Trevon, who had been silent all this while, smiled faintly in the driver’s seat. He rubbed the tip of his

nose with his right index finger. “I think Ava’s method is quite good. I believe you can succeed, Ava.”

When Ava heard Trevon’s encouragement, she leaned forward and reached out to give Trevon a high

five. A crisp and loud clap sounded in the enclosed space.

Natalie was speechless. “You guys are really… Why do I feel like Frank is being placed on the

operating table to be studied? You are even discussing the plan to dissect him on the side.”

The scene was like this. Frank, who was lying on the operating table waiting to be dissected, would

say. “Hurry up.”

Ava would say, “Don’t worry. Let’s figure out where to start first.”

Trevon would say, “Let’s start with his brain, I don’t think that looks normal.”

Ava would nod. “I also think that this is a great place to start.”

Ava thought about Natalie’s words and found this scene too funny. She was in a good mood and

imagined dissecting Frank in her mind

After returning to her seat, she gave Jasper a high-five. The boy was quite good at mimicking others.

He had just seen his father high-five Ava, and now, he was already learning to give Ava a high-five too.

Trevon spoke in all seriousness and said his true thoughts from the bottom of his heart out loud. “Ava is

born with such confidence and cuteness. If Frank doesn’t like her, he’s blind.”

Natalie sneered. This was the first time Trevon had praised someone like this. “You’re such a great

brother-in-law”

Trevon turned his head slightly to look at her, who was sitting in the front passenger seat. With a smile

in his eyes, he slowly reached out a hand to hold her small hand tightly. “Are you jealous?”

Natalie glanced at him and couldn’t help saying. “Are you crazy? Why would I be jealous? Drive

properly. There are four precious lives in the car.

Trevon sat up straight. “Got it, honey.”

It was strange how Natalie found the word “honey” weird at first, but as time passed by, she gradually

accepted it.

In Frank’s car, Rose sat in the front passenger seat. She was bored to death and closed her eyes to

take a nap. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Frank turned his head to the side and said indifferently, “Why didn’t you ask your friend to sit with you!

You look like you’re dying of boredom.”

Rose didn’t even open her eyes. She sighed and said with her eyes closed, “It’s all because a certain

someone didn’t reply to her messages and didn’t react at all. How can the little princess not be

embarrassed? Do you know what a princess is? She

condescended to come down to the mortal world to pursue a boring man like you. She never gets a

reply. Do you think she wouldn’t be discouraged?”

Frank pursed his lips and did not say anything. After a long pause, he said, “According to what you’re

saying, as long as someone wants me. I have to agree immediately. What do you think I am?”

Rose sat up straight immediately and placed her hands on her hips. Her expression clearly said that

Frank was helpless as she said. “Do you think you’re somebody? Why don’t you put yourself in the

auction house and have people bid for you?

“Don’t you know how much you’re worth?”

It was rare for Frank to be interested, and he asked with interest, “Tell me how much I’m worth then. I

really don’t have any idea. Come on. Tell me. If you don’t tell me today, you don’t ever have to get out

of this car.”

Rose sat upright and straightened her back. She explained the follow-up problems in advance, looking

as if she was facing death calmly. “You asked me to say this. If I hit a sore spot, you can refute but you

can’t hit me because of it. You have to promise me this.”

Frank urged impatiently, ‘If you want to say something, say it quickly. Why do you have to warn me in

advance?”

Rose thought to herself, “Do you think I want to warn you in advance? I’m just afraid that you’ll lose

control and beat me

1.

She composed herself and coughed dryly.

Frank urged again. “Why are you wasting time? Do you want me to get you a microphone so that you

can thank everyone first before telling me?”

“Shut up and don’t interrupt me.”

Then. Rose cleared her throat and said, “I’ll say it then. First of all, you’re quite good-looking. Perhaps

this is the only thing that attracted a princess like Ava. Secondly, your family background is also okay.

After all, you can afford to raise your wife and children. One can still have some expectations of you for

a bright future. However, Ava is definitely not interested in your money. As for those women in Lithern

Club, they must want your money more than your looks. You have to know your own limits. The above

are your benefits.”

Frank said indifferently. “Is this a paper or the summary of a meeting?”

Rose didn’t like Frank interrupting her. “You’re so annoying. You can speak after I’m done. You’re lucky

that I can analyze the situation for you. I wouldn’t even bother analyzing for others.”

Rose glared at the person in the driver’s seat. “Don’t interrupt me again. Your problem is that you’re

nothing except for the above two benefits. No matter how I look at you, you’re not pleasing to the eye.

Which girl can withstand your ravages with that mouth of yours? Secondly, you clearly can talk, but

other than firing insults at others, you wouldn’t talk at all. It’s almost as if you can’t talk Who would be

willing to live with a mute? Other than pretending to be cool every day, what else can you do?”

It was much easier to talk about his shortcomings than to talk about his benefits. Rose spat out all the

words in her heart without panting and was exhausted “Do you have water? I’m so thirsty”

No one knew if Frank was listening or not. He did not answer her at all. Instead, he said lightly. “Isn’t it

great to vent your deepest disdain out loud? If you despise me so much, why are you so shameless to

still use my money?”

Rose took a sip of soda water and took a deep breath. “Cranky Franky, you can’t be like this. We’re

talking about your problems. It’s a little immoral to make this into a financial issue. Besides, you were

the one who asked me to tell you everything. Now that I’ve said it, you’re blaming me.”

Frank ignored her dissatisfaction automatically and changed the topic abruptly, “Have you spent all the

money you earned in Sapphire City?”

Rose leaned back heavily against the back of the seat and stretched her legs out. “You truly know me

best. One has to spend money even if one survives by photosynthesis. Is there anything that doesn’t

cost money now? Why is it so difficult for you to support me for a period of time? It’s only costing you a

little.”

“Are you sure it’s only costing me a little? Are you sure you haven’t misunderstood the meaning of ‘a

little?”

Frank couldn’t help thinking about the stacks of parcels in the living room of the villa in Deep Water

Bay. He suspected that Rose nught have bought the entire online shopping platform.

“You never go shopping with me, so I can only shop online. If you go shopping with me, I won’t have to

shop online.”

Frank refused immediately. “You should go back to shopping online.”

“See? There’s a reason why you’re single. Just keep being single. You wouldn’t even cherish such a

good opportunity to practice. After saying that, Rose sighed and continued to shake her head.

It was hard to explain in a few words.

There was a reason why he was still single.

Now, she finally understood that there was no cure for his condition. It was incurable.

Hearing this, Frank pursed his lips and didn’t say anything. He focused on a certain point in front of him

and drove steadily towards the city center of Athana.

After a while. Frank said, “I’m not going back to Deep Water Bay tonight. You can stay there alone. If

you’re afraid, I can get you a room at Grand Manor.”

Rose pouted. She couldn’t bear to look at him. “Take me back to Deep Water Bay. I want to open my

parcels.”

Frank turned and threw Rose a disdainful look. Rose did not think much of it and even shrugged.

She was so smug.
