Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 262

After leaving the house, Jim drove in the direction of Evergreen Gardens. The partition was raised

again.

He quietly became an invisible person once again.

The day was getting dark, and the dark night shrouded the bustling city. The scenery outside the car

window flashed past for a moment. It could not be grasped or kept, and could only be seen.

It was very quiet in the back seat. Jasper was still working on the Rubik’s Cube. His hands kept

moving, and he was extremely serious. He was so serious that Trevon and Natalie could not bear to

disturb him.

After looking at the scenery for a while, Natalie felt a little sleepy She closed her eyes and leaned on

Trevon’s shoulder before falling asleep.

When he saw that she was tired, he moved his shoulders closer to her side and sat a little lower. He

lowered himself so that she was more comfortable to lean against His hand naturally rested on her

waist as he patted her gently. “Do you want me to hold you while you sleep?”

Not fully asleep yet, she mumbled, “No.”

Her son was still here. Why was he hugging her to sleep? To think he could think of such a thing

Just as she rejected him, the phone in her hand rang. She opened her sleepy eyes and lowered her

gaze. She unlocked the phone with one hand as her head was still leaning against his shoulder.

It was a message from Ava. “Sis, I’m home. Don’t worry.”

After reading the first message, before she could reply, the second message came immediately. “Sis,

I’ve deleted Frank’s contact information. I won’t contact him anymore. He doesn’t like me, and I don’t

want to be the person he hates. Enough is enough.”

After reading this message, Natalie didn’t know how to reply. She searched her mind for suitable

words. A male voice above her head said, “Don’t know how to reply?”

Her head rose from his shoulder. Her neck was a little sore. As soon as she raised her hand, Trevon’s

hand slowly moved from her waist to her neck to massage her. It was as if he could guess her

thoughts. It was very comfortable and the strength was just right. When someone massaged her, she

focused on chatting with Ava.

To answer Trevon’s question, she said, “Yes, I don’t know what to say. Ava is really sad this time. This

is her first time pursuing someone, but she didn’t get any response.”

It was normal for someone to not get a reaction from the person he or she was pursuing.

Indeed, people were biased. Ava was her younger sister, so she naturally felt a little heartache for Ava.

Frank wasn’t the one to blame when he refused Ava. He had the right to choose.

However, it took a lot of courage for a girl to summon the courage and confess to a boy in front of so

many people. Even though Ava was cheerful and direct, she was still a girl after all, it was inevitable

that she would be hurt. It was expected that she would be hurt if she had

some expectations.

Natalie thought for a while and typed a message. “I’ll support whatever decision you make.”

After a few minutes, Ava replied, “Sis, I love you, xxx.”

“Rest early. You’ve been on the plane for so long today. Rest well so that you can defeat the enemy”

Natalie typed her reply.

Ava sent a “roger that” sticker. It was a little cartoon saluting pose. The image of Ava saluting

automatically appeared in Natalie’s mind. It was. lively, cute, and playful.

Ava sent a message to the Fairy Fortress group chat to inform them that she was safe. Then, she

received stickers from Rose and Sherri.

Natalie saw that there was no reply and pressed on the edge of her phone. The screen Instantly turned

black. She then said to herself, “I want to go to Sapphire City to cheer for Ava when the competition

starts.”

As expected, Trevon said, “Sure, I’ll accompany you. “He wanted to tag along so that he could

propose.

Natalie didn’t refuse. Instead, she teased, “It’s not impossible. I’ll bring you to see Sapphire City Base

and my uncle’s house. You couldn’t enter before, right?”

Her words were heart-wrenching and firing.

The tip of Trevon’s tongue pressed against his molars. His eyes were fixed on the woman who was

openly teasing him. He smiled terrifyingly “Natalie, you’re provoking me.”

Natalie spread her hands casually and said innocently, “But I can’t help it. What I said seems to be the

truth. I’m kind enough to bring you to take a look. Is that a problem?”

“Alright, looks like this woman is beginning to tease me. Have I been doting on her too much?”

wondered Trevon.

He reached out and pinched the back of her soft neck. It was much heavier than when he was

massaging her She turned her hand and elbowed him in his chest. He quickly grabbed her hand, and

she freed her other hand to exchange blows with him.

The two of them went back and forth, completely forgetting that there was a little guy in the car At this

moment, Jasper was no longer playing with the Rubik’s Cube He was watching what he thought was a

fight “Come on

Hearing this the two of them stopped what they were doing and smiled at each other before letting go.

Natalie glared at Trevon and then said gently to his son, “Mommy is playing with Daddy, not fighting”

Jasper nodded, not fully understanding

The car stopped at the parking space for Evergreen Gardens during the fight.

After Jim got out of the car, he felt very uneasy. He didn’t know if he should unload the suitcase down

or not.

Ethan had already followed Joseph back to Sapphire City Back then, he had left him here to guard

against wolves. Now that the wolves had already entered the nest, he was naturally transferred back.

Trevon opened the door and got out of the car. He instructed Jim, “Unload the suitcase and you can go

back.”

“Thank god. I had no intention of going home with you,” thought Jim.

Hearing this, he quickly unloaded the luggage and got into the car. He stepped on the accelerator and

drove straight to the entrance of the community

“Who the hell is he running from?” wondered Natalie.

Trevon frowned slightly as he watched the Maybach leave. He retracted his gaze and said, “Let’s go.

Give me the child.”

Carrying Jasper in one hand and holding Natalie in the other, and Natalie pushed her suitcase with her

other hand. The three of them walked into the elevator.

He had no intention of letting go of her hand. “25” he said in a low voice.

Natalie let go of the suitcase handle and reached out her index finger to press the number 25. The

number on the display kept jumping from 1 to 25. With a ding, the elevator door opened.

Trevon walked to the door of a suite with ease before letting go of her hand and pressing his fingerprint

to the fingerprint lock. The door opened with a click and he reached out to hold Natalie again. Their

fingers intertwined as he led her into the room.

After entering, he let go of her hand and placed Jasper on the ground. He said gently to him, “Go play

in that room over there. There are many toys inside.”

When Natalie heard that, she looked in the direction he was pointing and realized that it was a

children’s room. The door of the room was open, and he could see that there were many toys inside.

There were Transformers, Ultraman, motorbike models…

She looked around and realized that this spacious suite had everything. However, there were also two

rooms. One was the master bedroom, and the other was the children’s room.

The layout of the kitchen and dining room was large enough to accommodate more than ten people.

Was he planning to have a gathering? In Natalie’s opinion, this design was very unreasonable. The

space was wasted.

It was a pity the living room was so big. She wasn’t sure if it felt too empty, but there was a huge

leather sofa placed there. She suspected that Trevon didn’t sleep on the bed at night, but on the sola

She really wanted to know which designer designed it and whether the designer was an amateur.

After a while, Trevon leaned against the door with his hands in his pockets. He watched her look

around without blinking. After a while, he said. “Do you like it?”

She turned around. Although she was smiling, the confusion on her face was obvious. “When did you

buy this house?”

He straightened up and answered honestly, ‘Before you left the country”

Actually, he didn’t even realize his original intention of buying this. He just wanted to get closer to her. If

he had known his intentions, wouldn’t his daughter have been able to run around as well by now?

Her chest constricted with an indescribable feeling He had a lot of houses. Adare Manor was the

marital home that Mr. Wilson had bought for them, but he still had his own detached villa. So why buy

this? Had he bought it for her two years ago?

He knew that she was puzzled. He walked closer and pulled her into his arms. He wrapped his arms

tightly around her and rested his chin on the top of her head. His deep voice came from above her

head. “After you left Adare Manor, you lived in Edward’s house, so I bought this house here.”

She suddenly raised her head, and a tacit understanding formed in that second. When she raised her

head, he seemed to know that she was going to raise her head and stood up straight.

She looked slightly pleased with herself, as if she had discovered a new continent. “Are you jealous

and not aware of it? Otherwise, it’s hard for me to understand why you bought this house.”

His lips curved slightly as he mocked himself. “Yes.”

She asked again. “When I left two years ago, Mr. Wilson came to the airport. You didn’t.”

After a few seconds of silence, she regretted bringing this up.”‘I went,” said Trevon. He had even been

laughed at by his own grandfather in the

car

“Huh? You went? But I didn’t see you.”

Trevon was a little embarrassed. He rubbed the tip of his nose with his index finger. “I had something

on and left. You probably didn’t see me.”

She was dubious. “Is that so?”

He did not want to continue this topic at all. He took her by the waist and led her into the master

bedroom. “Look, this is our room. See if there’s anything you need to change. I’ll arrange it tomorrow.”

The color scheme of the master bedroom was the same as the room she stayed in at Adare Manor. It

was clean and comfortable without too many colors. It was just that there were so many switches on

the wall.

She looked at the bed. It seemed to be bigger than the one in Adare Manor. She did not know if it was

her imagination.

She felt that the design of this suite was very strange. There were many things that she could not

describe, but she could not find anything strange about it

For example, there were many switches on the walls, there were only two rooms, the dining room was

huge, and the sofa was as big as a big…

She walked out of the master bedroom. She had no intention of sleeping with him at night. Trevon had

agreed to go to the Wilson’s residence the next day. She did not want to be watched like a monkey

when she walked with a strange posture.

She walked straight to Jasper’s room. There was a dazzling array of toys. They were all toys that boys

should have. “I’ll sleep with Jasper tonight. I need to rest.”

The man’s face darkened at those words. The disappointment was visible in his eyes. “Are you sure?”

Natalie touched his son’s head and stood up. “Yes, I’m doing this for your own good. I’m afraid you’ll

die from overwork.”

Trevon smiled “Why do you care so much about me? My stamina is very good. You can rest assured

about this. Didn’t I say that I wanted to exercise with you?”

What exercise? Was this the exercise she was talking about? Natalie refused. “I’m going to the

Wilson’s residence tomorrow. I advise you to stop thinking about it.”

Trevon gritted his teeth and did not force her. There were many things to do in the future, so he was not

in a hurry. There were emotions hidden in his eyes. “Alright, I’m putting this on the record.”

“Record my ass. Who the hell do you think you are? Are you going to say that what you haven’t used

can roll over to the next month?” Natalie cursed inwardly.

At night, Trevon cooperated and really didn’t mess around. After helping Jasper take a shower, he even

warmed up a cup for her before going to the master bedroom.

It was a good night’s sleep.

To be able to sleep so soundly on the first night in an unfamiliar environment, was it because she was

too insensitive to safety, or was it because the person sleeping next door was very safe?

Early in the morning, the melodious chirping of birds could be heard through the room. It didn’t sound

noisy at all. Instead, it was very comfortable.

Natalie was not surprised when she realized that the space beside her was empty. She sat up slowly

and pulled the blanket around her.

Not long after, Trevon returned with Jasper in his arms. He asked in a slightly strange tone, “You’re

awake?”

Natalie was not completely awake. She only sat up when she realized that Jasper was not around. She

struggled to open her eyes and narrowed them into slits as she looked at the man standing in front of

her. In the blurriness, the man’s face was extremely handsome. In an instant, her heart skipped a beat.

“Yes, he’s done peeing.”

Trevon originally wanted to secretly take the child to pee before putting him back. “Yes, I set the alarm.

Why didn’t you sleep a little longer? Did you sleep well?’

Natalie yawned, scratched her head, and opened her sleepy eyes. “Yes, I slept pretty well. Maybe I

went to bed too early last night. Aren’t you going to sleep longer?”

He stood still. Jasper had already fallen asleep again. He had no intention of waking up.

Seeing that he was standing still, she patted the seat beside her. She stared at him and asked, “Are

you going to sleep?”

She glanced at the Spider-Man clock on the wall. The time was 6:30. It was pretty early. “Get some

more sleep,” she said again.

His eyes were filled with joy. He quickly smiled and walked to the bed. How could he reject such a good

benefit? Last night, when he slept alone, he was rolling around and could not fall asleep at all. He was

used to sleeping with his wife hugging him. The moment his arms were empty, they were empty.

Happiness was like a drug. Once you were satisfied once, you would want it a second time, a third

time, a fourth time, or even more. You would never want to go back to how it was.

He immediately lifted the blanket and crawled into it. It was inevitably a little cramped for three people

to sleep under the same blanket.

The two of them lay down together. He hugged her waist tightly and buried his head in her shoulder.

His breath landed on her neck, and her body felt numb. It seemed like he could not sleep like this

either.

She turned around and looked at him with a warning look. “Stop fooling around and sleep well.

Otherwise, you can go back.”

“Got it. The blanket is too small. I’ll hug you. Otherwise, both of us won’t have a blanket to cover

ourselves.” After saying that, he kissed her forehead and pulled her tightly into his arms.

He found a comfortable spot and fell asleep again. However, he could not fall asleep at all. It was even

more difficult for him to sleep than sleeping alone.

He could only watch as the two of them fell asleep. He quietly looked at the sparkling ceiling.

The ceiling he designed for Jasper was a sea of stars. It was night-light, and it would glow slightly in the

darkness, like a simulated starry sky

When he couldn’t sleep, he could only count the stars. He never knew that the starry sky he designed

would one day be used on him.

It looked quite good, like the sea of stars.

Although it was a little cramped for three people to sleep under one blanket, it was healthier to

squeeze. Happiness was squeezed out.
