Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 189

Back at Evergreen Gardens. Trevon pulled over the car by the building. He got off first, followed by

Natalie. Then, Mel helped I ena out of the car

Lena had lived in this neighborhood for some time. So, she showed no amazed expression. All she felt

was the joy that she returned home alive

Mel, on the other hand, was different. She was from the countryside. It was her first time coming to

such a high-end neighborhood. It was spring now, and the community in March was filled with greenery

everywhere Green leaves surrounded it, and it was full of vitality What surprised her the most was the

cherry blossoms in this district. It was as if she had entered a fairyland or as if she had walked into a

painting.

She was in a daze and could not move her feet. How could this place be so beautiful? The cherry

blossom trees in this district kept fluttering, making the petals fall on her hair and then to the ground.

She couldn’t help but exclaim, “These flowers are so beautiful”

Trevon’s eyes flickered. His lips curled into a smile as he said to Natalie dotingly. “I need to excuse

myself now. I’ll have to go to the company first. I’ll get Jim to deliver anything you prefer to eat for

dinner.”

They were all women. It was inevitable that they would feel uncomfortable if a man went into the house

with them. It was better for him to leave now and be there when they needed him.

Natalie did not answer. She stretched out her palms and waved them in front of him. What she meant

was obvious. “Are my hands just for show? I even suspect that you want to turn me into a useless

person. It’s good enough for you to send meals to the hospital daily. I can cook at home.”

Trevon wanted to care for and arrange everything for her. She did not need to do anything or tire

herself out. But she was used to being independent and would definitely disagree.

Ignoring the two people beside them, he pulled Natalie into his arms and kissed her forehead. He said

gently. “Tll head off to work now, then. Call me if you need me.”

Lena did not look away. She observed the shyness and happiness on Natalie’s face that she had never

seen before. She smiled. and thought to herself. “That’s nice!”

Mel was an innocent young lady and had never seen a couple acting lovey-doveyly in public. She had

only seen kisses on television, but she had never seen a kiss in public right before her. She was so

embarrassed that her face flushed red. She looked more shy than Natalie. Flustered, she kept her

head lowered and played with her fingers awkwardly

Trevon left after reminding Natalie of a few things. Natalie took Lena’s items on the ground and said to

Mel. “Let’s go. What’s wrong with your face? Are you feeling unwell?”

After being kissed by Trevon countless times, Natalie had become less bashful than before. Although

she was a little embarrassed now, it was only for a while.

Mel reached out to touch her burning cheeks and said embarrassedly. “It’s nothing. It’s just a little hot

here. Mrs. Wilson, which floor are we going to?”

Natalie looked at Mel’s blushing checks again and thought about how this young lady would date

someone in the future if the were so easily embarrassed. Then, she answered, “25th floor.”

Lena’s eyes instantly shimmered in tears when she opened the door on the 25th floor. Her gaze landed

on the secondary bedroom, and she said as she sobbed, “Natalie, where is Jenny buried”

Actually, when Lena woke up the second day, she already knew the truth. She had also cried for a

while at night, but she knew Natalie’s intention of hiding it from her. Natalie was afraid that she would

be sad and affect her recovery. Therefore, in order to not let Natalie worry about her, she pretended not

to know

When she saw the familiar house that she had not seen for a long time, she could not help but feel as if

Jenny’s busy figure was still in the living room, the kitchen, and the balcony… Her vision became more

and more blurry as tears welled up in her ryes

Natalie instantly stopped. She turned around and looked at Lena worriedly “Lena… I’m sorry I didn’t

mean to hide it from you” She was afraid that Lena’s unstable emotions would worsen her health

condition.

Lena forced a smile. “I know. Natalie. This is Jenny’s and my choire. Don’t feel burdened. It’s our

blessing to be in the Foster family. Barron has never treated the two of us as servants. It’s already

worth it. Now that I have a goddaughter like you, what regrets do I have in my her

Natalie’s eyes started to shimmer in tears. She sniffed and controlled her emotions. She helped Lena

to the sofa and said, “Lena, let’s look ahead at our bright future. I’m your biological daughter from now

on. Please don’t stand on ceremony with the anymore. I’ll bring Jasper over tomorrow, okay? She knew

that Lena would definitely miss Jasper.

In the past, her godmother helped her learn to walk. In the future, she would accompany her

godmother for a stroll, basking under the sunset.

Mel did not know what they were sad about or what had happened before she came. However, she had

a hunch that it was something terrible. She did not know how to comfort them, so she could only use

what she felt was a good way to ease bad emotions. “Miss Lena, Mrs. Wilson, I’ll cook for you tonight.

I’ll cook some home-cooked dishes for you to try.”

Natalie liked this girl very much. She looked up and replied with a smile, “Alright, I’ll help you.”

Mel, employed as the nanny, did not dare to let the host help her. She waved her hand anxiously. “No.

It’s okay. I can manage

on my own.”

Natalie said solemnly, “Mel, you don’t have to be restrained here. I might be a few years older than you.

You can call me Natalie if you want to. That way, we can be more comfortable when getting along”

Mel did not expect Natalie to be so easy to get along with Natalie did not treat her as a servant at all.

This was the first time she had met such a good employer. In the past, those employers would order

her around casually and were very picky. They would despise her if she did not cook well. They would

always despise the dishes for being salty or bland. How could she dare to make home-cooked dishes

for those people? It was also because Lena and Mrs. Wilson were both lovely people that she dared to

suggest it.

Not only was she not despised, Natalie even said she wanted to help her. She was so touched that she

nodded her head profusely.

Mel was the one who cooked for dinner, and Natalie was just helping Actually, she was also a little

curious about Mel’s culinary skills

However, she was thinking too much. This young lady’s culinary skills were really not bad. The dishes

she made were to her godmother’s liking. They were neither salty nor salty and were just right.

After dinner, Mel and Lena shared the same room. They slept on the bed Jenny had slept in.

Before sleeping, Natalie thought about how timid the young lady was and told her that the bed

belonged to Jenny. She asked. Mel if she wanted to change the bed, but Mel said she was unafraid of
