Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Jasper was lying on his side, wearing dark blue pajamas. Looking at the woman's fleeing back in anxious steps, for sreason, he found her cute.

After a while, Ruby cout. She had already adjusted her emotions while she was in the bathroom. She tried her best to look natural as she lifted the blanket and lay down.

Seeing that she was lying in the blanket, he still did not lie down or crawl into bed. He just stared at her in a daze, as if she would disappear in the blink of an eye.

Her heart was pounding under his direct gaze. "What are you doing?" Jasper answered naturally, "I'm looking at you." 'Well, that's a simple but correct answer." She had just taken a nap and gone to the bathroom, so she was already awake.

Seeing that he was still looking at her with affection in his eyes, Ruby turned around under the blanket and faced him. She began to stare at him with the slook.

He did not know how long they had been looking at each other. Facing her burning gaze and the provocative smile on her lips, Jasper lost in the end.

He turned around and turned off the light. The curtains were not drawn tightly, and the silver-white light from the window seeped through the gap and projected onto the bed.

The flickering light lit up their faces.

The lights went out. Under the blanket, Ruby's fingers nervously twisted together. Her heart was bouncing.

Jasper flipped over, lifted the blanket, and crawled in. He hugged Ruby tightly and buried his head in her neck, rubbing against her soft skin.

The numbing touch made Ruby shudder. She subconsciously pushed his firm chest and said with a hint of embarrassment in her gentle voice, "Don't." As she spoke, she reached out and touched her itchy neck. However, Jasper's touch just now seemed to be lingering on her neck. The blush on her face began to spread.

In the dim light, she looked at him. He stared at her. His eyes were raw with desire. That's a desire for possession.

Ruby raised her hand and began to stroke his handsfacial features. From his eyebrows to the end of his eyes, she kept drawing this beautiful face that would stir up sspecial imagination. She was prepared to carve it into the deepest part of his heart.

Her fingers were very slender and gentle when she drew his face. Every touch was like another kind of tantalizing, like a white feather tickling the soles of his feet.

Just as she was about to draw it again, the kiss landed as expected. The moment the kiss landed, she took the initiative to hug his neck with a smile and breathe in each other's breath.

At spoint, her nightdress had been mercilessly thrown to the floor. In the next second, a dark blue nightgown was folded over her white nightdress.

At this moment, Ruby's face was like a drop of red ink that had been dripped onto a piece of thin paper. The red ink was constantly spreading, showing the most beautiful picture.

As tpassed, Ruby's eyes gradually becblurry, as if she had lost her way in a forest surrounded by clouds. A familiar voice pulled her back to her senses. The voice was extremely low and hoarse, and his scarlet eyes stared at her.

At this moment, she was like a prey that had walked right into the trap willingly.

"Ruby, is that okay?" These words made Ruby laugh in anger. After cuddling for a long time, he finally asked if it was okay. That was a kind of unnecessary politeness. No one would ask the host whether they should cin when paying a visit during Christmas.

Ruby did not dampen his passion. She raised her smooth arm and touched his cheek. The temperature of her palm was rising. It was so hot that even her whole body was getting warm. She said softly, "What do you think?" Hearing this, the kiss landed again. To prevent Ruby from being shy because of hearing his voice, Jasper played a song on his phone to cover the unique music created by Ruby.

The scenery in the early morning was also very beautiful, but it was inferior to the scenery in the room.

One song after another was played on a continuous loop in the room. Their hearts would follow the rhythm of the songs, and their music would lose control and break sometimes.

"It would be fine in a while. If you're not feeling well, pinch me." Ruby had gradually lost herself. Her ears were filled with music, but the other organs were more sensitive. She nodded in a daze. It happened indeed as Jasper had wished.

Daylight came, and the scenery in the room was illuminated. The scene of them sleeping in each other's arms because of overexertion formed a strong contrast with the noise outside. The two types of music had stopped, and all that was left was silence.

The man was like a child burying his head in the woman's neck. His hand under the blanket was hanging on her slender waist. Even though they were asleep, the corners of their lips were curled into a cozy smile.

Around eight o'clock, in the other room where Liam and Kade stayed, just as Liam was sleeping comfortably, the phone rang non-stop. In a daze, he reached out to turn off the screen, and the call was hung up.

After a while, another call cin. Kade, who was sleeping beside him, pushed his buddy's arm. "Liam, it's your call." If he didn't answer it, no one could continue sleeping in the annoying noise.

Liam was not awake. His mind was in a mess. He had drunk too much last night and competed with Olivia in alcohol tolerance. Jasper had not stopped them from drinking. So his head was still hurting.

Lying on his stomach, he fumbled for his phone and placed it by his ear. Throughout the entire process, he did not open his eyes and replied breathlessly, "Hello, who is it?" The person on the other end of the phone was dissatisfied with his tone. He said in an unfriendly tone, "I'm your father." Liam did want to sleep. He was too drowsy to answer. Out of courtesy, he said, "My father, alright. My father, why are you so loud? I'm not deaf." The person on the other end was irritated. He could tell from the voice that his son was still asleep. He couldn't be bothered to argue with him. "Where's your sister?" Liam was already on the verge of sleep. He casually replied, "Sleeping." He stretched out his leg and realized that he had kicked a leg. Without waiting for the other party to ask, he continued, "Sleeping beside me. Anything else? I'm about to sleep." Hackett did not believe it. After all, the siblings had not slept together much often since they grew up. It could be said that they did not sleep in the sroom at all. Hackett asked with suspicion, "Are you in the sroom as your sister?" At this moment, Liam only wanted to sleep and did not pay attention to his father's tone at all. He was in a hurry to hang up the phone and replied perfunctorily, "Yes, that's right. You're so annoying. We're sleeping." After his son's repeated affirmation, Hackett hung up the phone doubtfully. He could not be bothered to continue talking nonsense with his son.

Regardless of whether it was Kade or Liam, they had completely forgotten about the phone call and fell asleep again. Liam's head was swollen and he only wanted to sleep. Kade, on the other hand, had watched Cyril and Harper play games until 4:30 in the morning. He had only slept for about three hours and was very sleepy at this time.

After the gended, Cyril and Harper returned to their rooms to sleep.

At the stime, overseas, in a huge dining hall of the hotel, six people sat at a table. Other than Trevon and Natalie, the rest of the people called himmediately to ask about the kids' situation.

Rose took the breakfast from Edward and said sweetly, "Honey, thank you." Trevon and Natalie felt disgusted by how the middle-aged couple called each other.

Sherri and Hackett were already used to Rose's actions. Seeing that Hackett had hung up, Trevon teased, "I suggest you don't travel next year. Why don't you just hide Ruby in your pocket?" As soon as he finished speaking, Hackett rolled his eyes at Trevon. This time, Sherri did not reprimand Hackett.

For her, losing such an outstanding son-in-law like Jasper, she would indeed need to watch her daughter more closely if this young girl was looking for a boyfriend.

"Jasper has already found a girlfriend. If Ruby wants another boyfriend, | have to work harder." Her endless sighs made it seem like everyone was not here for fun but for lamentation. It was as if someone had a terminal illness.

Natalie lowered her head guiltily. She could not bear to see her best friend in a dispirited state. She knew how much Sherri liked Jasper, but she would always think of Jasper whenever there was something good to share. She always had Jasper's non her lips. "Anything is possible. Let's eat the breakfast." Hearing this, Sherri's eyes lit up. "Are you saying that Jasper and Ruby still have a chance?" "I didn't say that. | just said that anything is possible. Maybe Ruby will find a better boyfriend than you like." Hackett added, "Our Ruby is still young. It's too early to get married. Don't keep thinking of pushing our Ruby out." Edward did not intend to interrupt this topic. He quietly served Rose breakfast. After all, they only had sons. They could not understand the anxiety and panic of losing their daughter as Hackett did.

Therefore, it was better to shut up.

Rose was in a good mood. Not only could she cout to travel, but Harper also got into university.

Trevon, on the other hand, gave a meaningful glance to Hackett, who was eating quietly. He cursed in his heart.

‘Try to watch your Ruby? You think you have done a great job, right? You might beca grandfather next year." When Edward looked up, he saw Trevon's scheming gaze. He stared at Trevon for a few seconds, deep in thought, looking for clues. After thinking for a while, he still could not figure out what he was scheming.

Trevon was a person who sometimes made it difficult to guess what he was thinking. Perhaps you had already been schemed against and fallen into a trap when you realized it.

Just as Edward was about to look away, his eyes met Trevon's. Trevon was in an unprecedented good mood as he smiled faintly at Edward.

Natalie naturally knew what this man was proud of and sighed in her heart.

But Edward was baffled by that look.
