Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)

Chapter 614

Hackett was in a particularly good mood today.

Early in the morning, he brought creamy potato soup to the hospital. His mother-in-law had gotten up

early to boil the soup, saying it would replenish everyone's energy. When he entered the ward, he

found Frank still sleeping, while others had already been up.

Sensing the movement, Frank thought it was his son waking up. Mechanically, he began to rock the

bassinet, and Hackett walked in, completely stunned. The corner of his mouth twitched. He asked,

"What are you doing? The child is sleeping well, and why are you rocking the bassinet?"

Frank felt bewildered and completely exhausted. His arms were sore, more tired than if he had been in

a physical altercation. He never thought such a small baby could be so difficult to handle.

"Holy shit, what did you do last night? What's wrong with you?" Frank opened his eyes tiredly, and

Hackett, holding the creamy potato soup, came closer to look at Frank. Gloating was evident in his

eyes. Frank pushed him away.

Indeed, Hackett had come over early in the morning just to watch the show, and he saw it. "Don't tell

me that you stayed up all night! Your son is awesome, and it seems that he is your boss now."

Frank was so tired that he couldn't even keep his eyes open. He pinched his brow and yawned

constantly, suspecting that Hackett was just there to gloat over his plight, not to deliver the soup.

"You seem to have nothing to do."

"Yeah." Frank's son, who was sleeping peacefully now, didn't wake up when they talked. In the middle

of the night, he was the one who kept crying on a loop, and Frank had to rock the bassinet all the time

to keep his son settle down.

Grace walked over to take a look at her son Frank, who was still sitting on the sofa. Frank was really

tired. In the past, when he was in the Lithern Club, even if he stayed up late at night, during the day he

would still catch up on his sleep until the afternoon. "Frank, go inside and catch up on your sleep. I'll

keep an eye on the child."

Emma also thought that Frank's body would collapse if this went on. "Yes, go inside and take a nap, or

have a bowl of soup first."

Frank waved his hand. He really couldn't stay up any longer. He intended to catch up on his sleep. Ava

looked at Frank, who was exhausted, with aching sympathy. His chin was bruised, and there were dark

circles under his eyes. Before he entered the room, he met Ava's worried eyes and then said, "It's okay.

I just need to get some sleep."

Ava nodded. Luckily, their daughter was quite well-behaved. Otherwise, the whole family would be

exhausted. "Why don't we hire a babysitter?"

Hackett gave the soup to Grace and knew Frank's temperament well. "It won't work. Even if you hire a

babysitter, Frank will still take care of babies himself."

Grace responded, "It's okay. Being a father also has its responsibilities. You gave birth to the children,

and it's naturally his responsibility to take care of the children. After all, he can't just enjoy being a

father without doing nothing. In this case, he can also feel the difficulty of raising a child."

But for Ava, it was just kind of heartbreaking to watch Frank like this. Her son was really hard to take

care of.

Hackett nodded, agreeing with Grace's words. Frank had to go through it. And that was also what he

had been through. Although his two kids combined weren't as noisy as Frank's son, they were quite a

handful.

Hackett had just left when Daniel and William came to drop off breakfast.

Willaim came in and realized his son wasn't there. He wondered where Frank had gone in the morning,

thinking Frank had gone to buy breakfast. "Where's Frank?"

Grace replied, "In bed."

William asked, looking at the chicken soup on the table, "Where did this soup come from?" Daniel was

also confused. Just as they were thinking about it, there was a knock on the door, and Trevon walked

in, suited and booted, carrying lots of breakfast in his hand.

Emma walked over to take the food and smiled gently. "Why are you here? Don't you have to take

Jasper to school?"

Trevon glanced at the tightly closed guest room and guessed that Frank was still sleeping. He

immediately realized that Frank didn't have a good sleep last night. It was truly hard to be a father.

"Natalie asked me to come over to deliver breakfast. She will send Jasper to kindergarten." Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Daniel was now more and more satisfied with Trevon. He treated Natalie well, and he did things

thoughtfully. "Tomorrow, you don't have to come here. There's no need to ask you to rush over here to

deliver the breakfast in the morning. I will be mad if you do it again."

Trevon replied, "That's fine. Then I won't come tomorrow."

Since Frank was not there, Trevon did not stay long. He stood for a while, chatted a few words to

Emma and the others, and left.

Breakfast was abundant, including the soup Hackett brought over. With so few people, they couldn't

finish the food all. Emma shared the food with the nurse on duty, expressing gratitude for last night's

assistance. The nurse thanked her again and again, hesitated to accept until Emma assured her that

there would not be any problems.

The nurse knew that this room was reserved for a VIP guest. The dean had explained it repeatedly, but

she was not the type to rush up and kiss up to authority. Last night, she just gave her professional

advice when seeing Frank holding the baby all the time. In truth, when she did speak, there was a hint

of fear in her heart.

After all, the children from affluent families meant a lot to those powerful people. However, she didn't

expect this family to be so easygoing. She then realized that not every affluent family was hard to deal

with, and this family was an example.

Early the next morning.

Daniel and William arrived to deliver breakfast as usual. Following them were Joseph and Christina,

who came to see Ava before their departure to Sapphire City later in the day.

Aware of their impending departure, Emma tried to express something to Christina, "Christina, why not

let George stay at Athana, and I'll take care of him."

Understanding Emma's meaning, Christina grasped Emma's hand, standing gracefully in her heels,

and said with a gentle smile, "No, someone's ready to head to Sapphire City for a couple of months just

to enjoy the atmosphere."

"Huh?" Both Emma and Ava wore identical expressions of confusion, while Grace, seemingly

anticipating it, smiled knowingly.

Christina patted Emma's hands, which, despite nearing 60, didn't show signs of aging, "It's my mom.

She is planning to spend a few days in Sapphire City to avoid my sister and brother. She says she

doesn't want to be surrounded by a leftover woman and a leftover man every day, fearing it might affect

her mood."

Ava burst into laughter, though her wounds protested with a painful tug. She covered her belly with one

hand while laughing. Grace reminded her to be careful.

William, evidently pleased, chimed in, "So Charlie's wife is so upset she's leaving the house. Chris is

really an ungrateful son. See, Frank already has two kids. Why isn't he worried about his marriage at

all?"

Grace patted the back of the proud William and said, "No one will think you're foolish if you stay silent.

Just shut uo and enjoy your breakfast."

Grace stuffed a hotdog into William's mouth and shot him a warning look.

Christina smiled and then said, "You're right, William. My mom is already so worried about Chris's

marriage that she is going bald."

Joseph always invited Chris to go to his company, but Chris never went once, leaving Christina feeling

helpless.

William nodded, his mouth full of food, and continued to say, "If I were your father, I'd be anxious too.

It's a good thing you had the vision to find a good man like Joseph."

At this time, Daniel said, "Take it easy. Everything can be resolved immediately when it's the time. Did

Frank rock the bassinet all night?"

Originally, Joseph had planned to let Christina stay in Athana, and he would go back with his father.

However, his mother-in-law insisted on following them to Sapphire City and even found an excuse to

alleviate any burdens. In reality, Joseph knew that his mother-in-law just wanted to offer help. He

secretly noted the kindness of his mother-in-law down in his heart without revealing it.

Since his mother-in-law was going to Sapphire City, Joseph decided to let Daniel stay in Athana a while

longer. He and Christina could handle the company's affairs.

Ava said, "Well, he must be very tired."

"It's not easy being a dad." Daniel nodded his head. "But Ava used to be quieter when she was a little

kid, just like her daughter now."

Joseph went over to help Ava have breakfast, dotingly rubbing her hair and saying something quietly.

Ava smiled and reassured her brother.

William added, "Maybe there is the gene for staying up late in Frank's body. In the past, Frank used to

stay up late at night and sleep during the day. Now, look at my grandson, who is exactly the same as

his father. They all sleep during the day as if having worked the night shift."

They considered it and all thought William was right. Frank's son during the day was much quieter, but

only until the afternoon when his sleep became unstable. Frank basically slept until noon and then got

up, counting only a few hours of sleep a day.

In fact, it was much tiring for him than when the Lithern Club just opened.

Sherri said that Frank was in the same state as working in a factory on the night shift.

After a quick breakfast, Ava went to bed, and Grace sat on the couch, reading magazines.

Seeing that his son and daughter-in-law were returning to the Yamin family, and that Angie was

heading to Sapphire City in the afternoon, Daniel decided to go to the Yamin family to express his

gratitude. Emma also thought she should go to thank Angie in person, but she was stopped by

Christina, who told her to take care of Ava at the hospital and not to worry about that.

In the end, Emma was left, and she had to sit by Grace's side and read books.

Christina arrived in a sports car, which could only seat two people. William could only drive his car over.

He was willing to be the driver. After all, showing off to Charlie on the phone was less funny than

showing off to Charlie face in face.

At this point, the streets of Athana were full of vehicles. Intermittent horn sounded throughout the road,

and there were always red lights along the way, which drove people to anxiety.

After 50 minutes, they finally arrived at the Yamins' Villa.

William was the first to get out of the car, followed by Daniel. The gifts had been bought earlier and

stuffed in the trunk of William's car. William opened the trunk, grabbed the gifts, and handed some to

Daniel.

Joseph walked over to help his father carry the gifts, while William refused Joseph's help with the items

in his hand, saying, "No, I can't go inside empty-handed. Charlie will accuse me being impolite."

Upon hearing this, Christina and Joseph smiled, not knowing what to say.

They walked together, and William was more familiar with the route than Christina. He was now walking

in front. Joseph and Christina followed closely behind, and Daniel smiled at the back.

William skillfully inputted the password, opened the door, and before the others had entered, he said,

"Charlie, I came to visit you with gifts, and you didn't even come out to welcome me. What a shame."

These days Charlie did not go to the company because he wanted to accompany George, and his wife

was leaving in the afternoon. He sat on the sofa and glanced at the things in William's hand, saying, "I

didn't invite you. You're uninvited."

For Charlie's dissatisfaction, William directly ignored it. He put the things in his hand on the table and

said, "These were all bought by Daniel. I don't need to spend a penny to come here. It's not like I don't

know the password."

When they saw Daniel coming in, Angie and Charlie both stood up enthusiastically. Angie gently placed

George down and entrusted her daughter to look after him while she went into the kitchen to make

coffee.

Not a moment later, Angie emerged from the kitchen carrying a few cups of coffee. Joseph stepped

forward, ready to take those cups of coffee from his mother-in-law's hands, "Let me handle it."

Angie responded, "You sit down. I can handle it." Nevertheless, Joseph still took over those cups of

coffee and placed them in front of Daniel and William.

As Daniel sat down, he straightened his back and said, "I'm sorry. I should come here for a visit earlier."

Charlie took a sip of his coffee, while William seemed to settle in comfortably as if he was in his home,

lazily leaning back on the sofa, crossing his legs, and leisurely peeling an orange.

Charlie glanced at William and remarked, "You don't have to say that. It's not a big deal. If I fuss about

such things, I wouldn't put up with William."

William interjected at this time, "Charlie, it seems that you don't welcome me."

Charlie remained silent, wondering that even if unwelcome, William could still come and go as he

wanted. He once asked this proud guy to introduce a girl to his son, but William refused, and now,

William showed off to him every day.

George and Daniel had a great relationship. Since Daniel arrived, the little guy had jumped from

Christina's arms to Daniel's, exclaiming, "Grandpa."

Daniel lovingly stroked his grandson's head and smiled, "Have you been a good boy?"

George nodded like a grown-up, indicating that he was always be a good boy. Reаd at

Angie chimed in, sitting down beside her daughter, "There's no need to be overly concerned about

etiquette between our two families. Just learn from William. Charlie and I aren't hard people. Ava has

just finished giving birth, and you must all be very busy."

"To talk about etiquette, Charlie and I haven't even gone to visit Ava yet," Angie added. Despite her

somewhat cranky personality, she remained considerate of manners.

Daniel nodded in agreement but remained silent. Since they all said so, he didn't need to feel unease

anymore.

Hearing this, William's smile widened. "It's all thanks to Ava. She gave birth to the twins. Charlie, you

should ask Chris to a girl with the twin genes to increase the chances of having grandchildren at the

same time in the future."

Charlie, displaying a rare moment of humility, replied, "Well, Chris is not as lucky as Frank." He had

already given up hope for his son getting married. This was mainly because he and Stella would have

an argument about who should get married first when the topic arose.

Angie sighed, "That's also why I want to move to Sapphire City. You know, I want to live a happy life."

Their conversation also amused Christina and Joseph, who were sitting nearby. Joseph, with his legs

slightly apart and hands propped up on his legs, looked at his father-in-law. "Just let Chris go to the

company when he has the time."

Joseph and Christina exchanged meaningful glances. Christina shrugged and indicated there was

nothing more she could do.

Joseph patted Christina's hand confidently, reassuring her.

They stayed in the Yamin family for almost three hours until Joseph and Christina, along with Chris,

prepared to leave for the airport. Daniel and the others left together, first driving their son to the plane.

After the plane took off, Daniel followed William back to the company.
