Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

After coming out of the cafe, Jasper told Ruby about his meeting with her father. He also told Ruby about their conversation, only the words that didn't worry her.

He didn't say anything about probation or making up for his mistakes.

When Ruby heard that he made a deal with her father, she was so touched that she burst into tears. She told Jasper that she had gone to look for his father during the day. Jasper comforted her and reminded her of cherishing the moments with family. Ruby nodded in tears.

The next morning, a big truck was slowly driving towards the suburbs with a full box of goods. A handsyoung man sat in the front passenger seat, and the driver glanced at him from tto time.

The driver saw that the person beside him was cold and quiet. Other than paying him when he got into the car and telling him the destination, this young man had not spoken since. If not so, the driver would have thought that this person was mute.

An hour later, the truck drove into the Roberts Villa. With the sudden arrival of a large truck and its full goods, Tom and Benjamin, who were standing at the door, immediately stood up straight and looked energetic.

After the car stopped, the two of them walked quickly to the car. Tom asked, "Mr. Wilson, what is this? Is it going to the docks?" Jasper had already jumped down from the front passenger seat and instructed people to unload the goods. He replied calmly, "No, it's for Uncle." Benjamin raised his head and looked at the goods in the car. He estimated for a moment and said, "That's a lot.

Do we have to put them here?" ‘Where should | put them? There are probably more than a hundred boxes." The people in the villa heard the noise in the courtyard and walked out. Grace was not working anymore and was wearing simple hclothes. William was already dressed up. He glanced at the truck of goods and was shocked. "Jasper, what are you doing so early in the morning? Why are you sending so many goods here? | don't have a place to put them in my villa." Grace took a step outside and narrowed her eyes when she saw the words on the boxes. Why did he send so many tampons over? It was embarrassing to see so many private items piled together.

Just as she was about to speak, Frank and Ava cout. Ava was also shocked by the scene in the courtyard and felt puzzled. "Jasper, why are you here? What is this?" The entire family was dumbfounded by Jasper's actions early in the morning. Even the bodyguards looked at each other in confusion.

Frank and Ava were both wearing suits and preparing to go to work early after breakfast. The two kids had already been sent to school by Frank. They had just returned and planned to send Ava to work.

He walked around the truck. There were already more than 20 boxes of goods unloaded on the ground. After looking at them for a few seconds, the corners of Frank's lips curled up as if he understood something. He stopped and said to the workers, "Sir, thanks for your hard work." Then, he turned around and said to Jasper, who had been silent all this while, "I got it. Your future father-in-law asked you to send these things here. So he didn't break up a couple. That's fine." Jasper answered truthfully, "You're right. Uncle, there are 100 boxes for you." Hearing the number, Frank smiled again. Ava walked around the car and asked Jasper, "Jasper, what are these?" "Tampons." Everyone was dumbfounded. 'What? Tampons? 100 boxes? Are you kidding me?' Questions lingered in everyone's heads.

They were curious about what had happened.

Frank raised his hand to let them stop unloading. He made a call first. "Stop. You'll have to spend a lot of effort to upload them back." The phone was still ringing. Frank said again, "Someone is taking these things. Just have a break." A few seconds later, the call was picked up. Frank's tone was full of smiles as he jumped straight to the point.

"The show is over. | have 100 boxes of tampons here. I'll take 1, you take 9. What about that?" The person on the other end of the phone did not understand. He asked in a low voice, "What do you mean?" Frank laughed out loud and repeated. "I'm talking about your gifts, 100 boxes of tampons. Good quality. Don't waste them. I'll get 10 boxes and you get the rest 90 boxes." As soon as he finished speaking, Trevon understood. "Anyway, you're Jasper's uncle. It's not fair. What about this? You get 40 and | get 60. I'll take 10 more punches for you." Frank turned around and looked at the 100 boxes of tampons. His forehead was also throbbing. Ava didn't use this brand, so Grace probably didn't need this much either. Nona used the sbrand as Ava. In the end, he didn't compromise. "I take 20 and you take 80. If you can't use all of them, give them to your maids as benefits.

If there are still many left, give the rest to the secretary department." The person on the other end of the phone was silent and seemed to be thinking. Frank teased, "If you really can't do it, dismantle them and stack them up as a lazyback." As soon as Frank finished speaking, Trevon hung up. Jasper's phone rang. He picked it up and didn't say anything. He just listened to what was being said on the phone. A few minutes later, the call ended.

Jasper instructed them to keep 10 boxes and send the rest to the Wilson Group.

Upon hearing Jasper's instructions, Frank laughed out loud again. That idiot was serious about distributing tampons to his employees. However, it seemed all the staff together wouldn't be able to run them out.

Frank guessed that with Hackett's personality, he was probably still thinking of more evil methods to punish them.

It was not until the truck left that Ava and Grace asked about this matter. Frank carried Ava into the villa and told her everything that had happened.

"You can't blHackett for that. Frank, you made a mistake. Why did you lie to him? It's you who introduced that tampon brand. You asked for it." The corners of Frank's mouth curled up. "Yes, don't worry. I'll take care of it." Ava was a little worried that their relationship would worsen. "Frank, if Hackett hits you, you should bear with it.

Ruby is a treasure to Hackett." Ava thought back to when she was chasing Frank. His parents and brother had never interfered with her affairs.

The only thing she had gained from the family was encouragement. Now that she thought about how Hackett treated Ruby. Perhaps every parent treated their children differently.

"Okay, got it." Frank gave Ava a reassuring look. He raised his hand and rubbed her head, telling her not to worry. He hadn't told Ava back then because she was unwilling to lie.

Grace did not know what to say. She did not want to get involved in the young people's matters. She only reminded him, "Don't hurt your relationship." William patted his son's shoulder and nodded. "Use your manly method to settle it. There's a first aid kit at home." Frank sighed in his mind. 'Alright, my good father." In the Wilson Group, all the employees received 20 packs of tampons in 10 minutes. The entire company was in a heated discussion. They could not understand why the company was suddenly concerned about the physiological problems of the female employees.

On the other hand, the people from the procurement department were only in charge of distributing the tampons as the delayed gifts for Women's Day, without being specific.

The secretary department received 30 packs of tampons. When she saw Jim walking towards the CEO's office with a folder, a secretary quickly pulled Jim back. "Mr. Hawk, tell us something. Why did the company suddenly give us tampons? We have been working here for so many years, but there hasn't been a year when the company gave out tampons on Women's Day. That's weird. There must be ssecrets we don't know." Jim wanted to lie that he didn't know either. "I don't know. Don't ask me. By the way, | haven't received the gifts so | don't care. | don't need it, anyway." A secretary said, "Do you want some? | can share with you." "There's no need. You can keep it. My wife has a lot at home. It's rare for the boss to have a generous moment. It means that the company values women more than us men." The secretary said, "If you need it, Mr. Wilson will also give sto you. Can you use it?" After chatting for a few minutes, Jim took the folder and entered Mr. Wilson's office. There was also a box of tampons on the ground. All the people in the company received tampons. To dispel their suspicion, Trevon asked Jim to buy another dozens of boxes. Now, there was an additional box in his office.

The man stopped signing the contract and looked up at Jim. He raised his chin slightly. "This box is for you.

You've worked hard this year." It turned out that regardless of whether he would be on his period or not, Jim, who was a special assistant all year round, deserved a box of tampons. He had what others had, and he also had what others did not have. He said politely, "Thanks. But | don't need them. It's not necessary. It's my duty to work hard. | don't work for bonus." He didn't work for free. Besides, Mr. Wilson was very good to him. He had given him a house and a car, already enough.

"You dislike it? It's very expensive. Do you think it's a cheap brand?" "I don't. It's just because | don't need it." Besides, if he carried this box out, how would he explain to the secretary just now? Say he had a heavy period? A secretary only got 30 bags. Would he, a man, receive a whole box? Trevon only wanted to deal with this thing now. Hackett might be up to something again. "You have to take this box with you. As for how to explain it to your wife when you get home, you can figure it out yourself. Anyway, she must be happy. It's a necessity for her, right?" 'Why don't you get the box to your home?' But he agreed. "Okay." At that time, in the Blackwell Group, when he heard that the Wilson Group's people were distributing tampons wantonly, Hackett could not help but spin a few rounds on the chair. He was in an extremely good mood.

He took a pack of cigarettes from the corner of the table and leaned against the window sill. He started smoking.

He took a deep drag and blew out a round smoke ring. As he watched it break apart, an idea began to flash in his mind. As he was thinking, the phone rang.

He bit the cigarette in his mouth. The smoke filled the office. With one eye half-closed, he strode onto the table and picked up the cigarette box. When he saw the caller ID on the screen, the joy he had felt earlier began to dissipate and shifted into aggression. He twisted his neck and picked up the phone. His attitude was rude.

"Anything wrong?" The call was from Trevon. He guessed that Hackett must have racked his brains to think of bad ideas. Trevon did not want Hackett to buy tampons anymore. It's inappropriate for the Wilson Group to send such gifts. Moreover, Jasper was the one who bought it. That was a huge waste of the Wilson family's money.

He could feel Hackett's anger and arrogance through the screen. Trevon pinched the space between his eyebrows and threw the pen in his hand into the pen holder perfectly. "I've accepted your gift. Don't think about how to mess withanymore. | know you're angry. Lithern Club, are you coming?" If someone cknocking on his door to get beaten up, he would be a fool not to go. If Trevon dared to win today, Hackett would immediately cut ties with him and end the relationship. He agreed readily. "Alright, call Frank together." Trevon suddenly smiled and said indulgently, "Whatever you say. Tellwho else you want to call in one go. I'd like to arrange everything for you." Hackett reminded him coldly, "Watch your attitude." Upon hearing this, Trevon said in a serious tone, "Yes, do you need to call my wife?" "I never hit women. Let women solve their problems. It depends on Sherri." "You're quite principled. Alright, I'll call Frank." Jim was waiting for Trevon to hang up and prepare to report his work.

After the man hung up the phone, he waved his hand to signal to Jim that there was no need to report. "I'll go deal with the tampon matter. Let Jasper handle the affairs these days. | won't be coming to the company for the tbeing." Jim was dumbfounded. Why did he suddenly not cto the company? "Ah, are you going to a meeting overseas?" If Mr. Wilson went to a meeting, he needed to go too. He had to report to his wife in advance.

Trevon tidied up his suit and stood up. He thought of a precise word. "Repair the boat." Just as he raised his foot, he turned around and glanced at the box of tampons on the ground. He reminded Jim again, "Don't forget to take this box away. It's yours." ‘What? Regardless of Jim's expression behind him, Trevon made a call to Frank as he walked and asked him to go to Lithern Club.

When Jim carried a large box of tampons out of the office, he was teased by the secretaries.
