Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)

Chapter 490

The laughter in the kitchen was so loud that everyone in the living room looked up at the kitchen.

Edward happened to come in with Ruby in his arms.

She saw the women in the kitchen smiling brightly like flowers. Then, he subconsciously smiled and

instructed her niece, “Ruby, go play with Jasper.”

Ruby got down from Edward’s arms and walked to Jasper’s side. She called out softly, “Jasper.”

Jasper replied faintly, “Yeah.” Then, he handed the toys he had brought to Ruby. Ruby happily took

them.

The four men retracted their gazes from the kitchen. Edward and Frank were looking at Rose. Trevon

crossed his legs and acted as if he was sitting at home. He kicked Hackett with his toes, indicating for

him to look at the two children.

Hackett defended himself. “My daughter ha’s a good personality. She can get along with anyone. Don’t

let your imagination run wild.”

Suddenly, Frank interrupted and said jokingly, “It’s not easy to accept it if I don’t let my imagination run

wild.”

Hackett glared at Frank. “Get lost.”

The kitchen door opened, and Sherri came out with a plate of fruits. Edward stood up to take it. “Is

there more?”

“Yes, I’ll go get it. Take this over first. Edward, give Ruby some watermelon. The melon today is quite

sweet. Did you buy it, or did Hackett buy it?”

Edward answered seriously, “I bought it. Hackett carried it home.”

Sherr was speechless. Fine, at least it was free.

Looking at the table full of food, Trevon raised his chin at Edward, sitting beside Frank. “Quite well-

prepared, huh?”

Edward was not to be outdone. “I don’t want to be the subject of gossip. It’s better to be more

considerate.”

These words made Frank, who was sitting calmly, laugh. This meant that Trevon was difficult to deal

with. It was just that he did not make it clear.

Two hours later.

Sherri began to serve the dishes. She went back and forth again and again. When all the dishes were

carefully arranged, Sherri stood in front of the dining table with her hands on her hips in satisfaction

and shouted, “Dinner is ready… Guys.”

Her voice was so loud that it could probably be heard outside the villa.

In the kitchen, Natalie despised her best friend’s loud voice. “It’s a waste of the decibels of her sound

not to go to the mountains to see wild boars.”

“Aha, Natalie, I realized that you’ve become more and more humorous after giving birth. Aha, if Sherri

finds out, she’ll probably die of anger.”

“Don’t worry. Even if we die of anger, she won’t. This fellow has a good mentality.”

As she spoke, Natalie was about to wipe the kitchen. However, she was stopped by Rose. “Stop doing

that. I had asked you to be a guest, but you’ve been helping me. You don’t have to help wipe the

kitchen anymore. I’ll do it with Edward later.”

“That’s fine too. I have to give you two a chance to create warmth. Rose, you must be happy for the

rest of your life.”

Rose smiled blissfully. “I will. We will all be very, very happy. We must eat and drink well tonight. You

are not allowed to hold back in my house.”

“Don’t worry.”

At the dining table, they sat in a circle. Jasper and Ruby sat together because Ruby had not seen

Jasper for a long time. She wanted to sit together with Jasper to play. Therefore, no matter how

unwilling Hackett was, he did not want his daughter to be unhappy.

Jasper was very sensible. He handed the food that Trevon had given him to Ruby. Ruby thanked him

politely. “Thank you.”

Jasper replied calmly, “You’re welcome.”

Natalie said, “Damn genes. They really come with them the moment they go out.”

Rose sat beside Natalie and smiled. “After Jasper grows up, his personality must be like his father’s.”

After that, Rose generously pulled Edward to his feet and raised her drink. The two people present

were mothers who needed to breastfeed and could not drink. Rose and the others only prepared soft

drinks. The men needed to drive, so they also refused to drink.

Rose was the first to speak. “First of all, let me say some polite words. Thank you for taking the time

out of your busy schedule to attend my housewarming banquet. Secondly, everyone, please help

yourselves. Thank you.”

Frank pinched his eyebrows. He thought his sister would say something touching when she suddenly

stood up. In the end, that was all she said. “I thought you wanted to thank God.”

“Why should I thank God? God won’t join us for the dinner. I only need to thank you guys. Frank, thank

you.” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Frank was the loneliest at night. Ava was at Sapphire City. People around the dining table were also in

pairs. Rose had invited. Chris and Stella, but Chris could not leave because of the surgery. Stella was

said to be working overtime with her sister.

Meanwhile, Edward had also invited Kyle, Similarly, Kyle refused. He only wanted Edward to be happy.

At the dining table, everyone chatted warmly. Rose and Sherri were the loudest. Natalie would interrupt

from time to time. It was okay when she didn’t speak, but once she did, she shocked everyone.

Everyone laughed out loud. Trevon liked the current Natalie. He could feel that she was very at ease.

Trevon had a good appetite that night. It had been a long time since he had eaten the dishes Natalie

made. He leaned close to Natalie’s car and praised her. “Honey, the dishes are delicious.”

Natalie smiled and cooperatively picked up some food for him and her son. “Got it.”

After having a lively meal for about two hours, everyone played in the villa for a while before going

home. Jasper and Ruby yawned.

Before leaving, Rose invited everyone to come for dinner again sometime.

Sherri walked to the door, smiled, and said, “You don’t need to invite me. Just call me aloud, and I’ll be

here.”

Natalie said, “She has added another line to her three daily tracks.

Rose asked curiously, “Three daily tracks? Which line?”

Natalie explained patiently, “Between her bed, dining room, bathroom. From her house to the Blackwell

family residence. Now, to your house. Those are her daily tracks.”

“Aha, Natalie, you’re too talented. Your analysis is on point.”

Sherri patted her best friend, even though what she said was true. “The boat of our friendship is about

to capsize. This is too much. Can’t you not expose it after you see through it?”

“No, I’m kind of honest. As a parent, I have to set an example.”

Natalie did not intend to stand in the parking lot and continue arguing with Sherri about honesty. She

patted Sherri’s shoulder and said, “We’re leaving. Bye.”

Rose and Edward said in unison, “Bye.”

Trevon smiled and said, “You’re getting more and more like each other.”

“Frank, do you want to stay here?”

Frank had one hand in his pocket and a lit cigarette in the other. The scarlet dot lit up like a star in the

night. He stayed far away from the child. “I don’t plan to be a third wheel. I still have to have a video call

with Baby Ava at night. Go to bed early if you have nothing to do.”

Rose thought, “You still can have a video call with Ava even if you live here. Forget it. If you’re

unwilling, I won’t force you.” In the future, when she invited Ava to stay over, her brother would

definitely be willing to stay too.

After everyone left, only Rose and Edward were left in the villa. The door was closed, and the living

room was messy. The dining table and kitchen were even more so.

Edward raised his hand and glanced at his watch. It was already late. It was 11 o’clock. Edward had an

obsessive-compulsive disorder and would not be able to fall asleep if he did not tidy up at night. “Rose,

go upstairs and take a shower first. I’ll tidy up.”

When Rose heard this, she was unwilling to do so. The house belonged to them, so why did he have to

work alone? “Let’s do it together. It’s faster this way. There’s strength in numbers.”

Edward refused and found a reason to convince Rose. “No need. You cook, and I’ll wash the dishes.

That’s only fair.” “I’m not the only one who cooked. Natalie was also helping. Hey, stop dawdling. Let’s

hurry up.” Rose had already entered the kitchen.

Edward followed behind her and shook his head helplessly. Rose did not want Edward to tidy up the

large living room alone. It was very lonely.

Rose was tidying up the kitchen. Edward was tidying up the dining room and the living room. After a

while, Edward was done tidying up the trash. He went into the kitchen and took a clean cloth to wipe

the table. After wiping it, he took a few tissues to wipe the table. He only stopped when the table

reflected the light.

Then, he cleaned the living room and saw Rose was still wiping the smoker inside. He stood in the

living room in a daze and looked at the busy woman in the kitchen. She was wearing simple jeans and

a short sweater. She was virtuous when she

should be. She was cute when she should be. And she could hold herself up when she should be a

lady, like a changeable fairy.

At this moment, it was touching. He could not help but walk toward the kitchen. He wanted to hug

Rose, and he did so. While Rosé was standing upright, wiping the smoker, Edward hugged her waist

from behind and rested his chin on Rose’s head.

Rose, who was working hard, did not understand Edward’s actions. “Honey, what’s wrong? Do you

miss me? Then, wait for a while. Wait for me to finish.”

Upon hearing this, Edward was stunned. Why did Rose always think that he was intimate with her

because of that? He only felt Rose was good now and wanted to hug her. “Rose, I don’t want to do

anything else. I only want to hug you.”

“You’re really good. Very good,” Edward said in his heart.

Rose did not stop. She thought that Edward was in a hurry. Today was their first day in the new house,

so they were considered newlyweds. She had to satisfy Edward’s request tonight.

After wiping the kitchen, Rose squeezed some hand sanitizer and washed her hands. The sound of

water flowing was heard. Neither of them spoke. Rose wanted to wash her hands before asking

Edward.

Edward waited patiently for Rose.

After washing for a while, Rose turned off the tap and wiped her hands clean. He turned around slightly

in Edward’s arms and touched his chin with one hand. “Are we going to sleep without sex tonight?”

Edward didn’t know what to say.

Rose used her old-fashioned tone to encourage Edward. “Honey, at our age, we should be energetic

and show the charm of youth. If we can jump around, we definitely can’t sit down. We can’t be so calm.

Otherwise, when we’re in our seventies or eighties, we won’t be able to jump around even if we want

to.”

“L., Rose wanted to say something, but Edward picked her up horizontally. She subconsciously

wrapped her arms around his neck.

Damn, her husband was quite handsome. Then, Edward said domineeringly, “I’ll bring you to

experience the vitality of youth.”

Rose did not back down either. She said playfully, “Okay.”

Edward hurried upstairs to the master bedroom and kicked the door open.

The door was tightly shut. After taking a shower, the room was filled with youth. Young people were so

energetic.

Rose also experienced what it meant to be young and energetic in the new house at night. She had a

deep understanding of

these words.
