Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)

Chapter 194 Meanwhile, Hackett was still in the hotel The man was sleeping soundly under the blanket and seemed to be dreaming. There was a smile on his lips, making him look a little silly The sudden ringtone brought him back to reality. Hackett took out his phone from under the pillow with his eyes closed. He tapped the answer icon and placed it by his ear. His eyes remained closed as he said in a low and hoarse voice, “Hello.” A resentful voice came from the other end of the call. “Hackett. | asked you to stay in the hotel to win Sherri’s heart, not to enjoy yourself. Hurry up and get up. Look at the time. How dare you sleep soundly without even being able to bring your woman and daughter back?” It was already half past two in the afternoon. When Joy heard her son’s hoarse voice, she knew he was still in bed. She was so angry that she would burst into anger it she did not scold him.

She waited a few seconds for her son to respond.

There was dead silence on the other end of the call, followed by the sound of his son’s steady breathing.

Joy didnt want to say anything anymore. If her son were at home, she would hit him with a stick by now.

She had no idea why Hackett loved to sleep so much.

Joy was so angry that she hung up the call.

After about five minutes, the hotel's doorbell kept ringing. The landline in the room also rang at the same time. The knocking on the door and the ringing of the phone made Hackett unable to fall asleep and continue his sweet dream.

He sat up in frustration, scratched his head, and scolded. “Who is it? Why are you disturbing my sleep so early in the morning? Are you courting death?” The person outside the door might have heard his curses. The next second, the knocking on the door and the ringing phone stopped abruptly. Hackett was already half awake. He sat on the bed with his eyes closed, preparing to wake up.

It took a while for him to open his eyes. He was in a bad mood.

He remembered that his mother had called him. But what did she say? He seemed to have forgotten. He vaguely remembered she said something about winning Sherri’s heart.

Forget it! If he called back, he would be scolded. Passing the probation period was more important.

He took the phone from the side of the bed and looked at the time. It would have been better if he hadn't looked at it, but when he did, he was shocked. It was 2.35 p.m. It was not morning anymore. What about his girlfriend's lunch? He quickly dialed the number on the top of his contact list. It was Sherri’s number. He turned on the speaker and took off his pajamas while waiting for the call to be picked up.

In the end, the phone rang and automatically hung up without being picked up. There was no doubt that his girlfriend was angry.

He had just kissed her in the morning and pissed her off in the afternoon.

He sighed silently. Her impression of him had just improved, yet he had ruined it just like that.

He quickly put on his clothes and walked into the bathroom to wash up. Seeing that the pink top on the bed was no longer wearable, he took out a macaroni-colored shirt from the wardrobe, put on a pair of jeans, and headed out of the door.

He drove the car to the hospital entrance and walked straight into Sherri’s consultation room. When he entered, he realized no one was in the consultation room. He anxiously went to the front desk and asked, “Excuse me, is Dr. Landor off work in the afternoon?” When the nurse at the front desk saw how handsome Hackett was and that she saw him every day, she answered enthusiastically. “Dr. Landor has two surgeries this afternoon. She is still in the operating theater but should be out soon. Why don’t you wait in her office for a while?* Hearing this, Hackett heaved a sigh of relief. “Alright, thank you. The doctors and murses in your hospital are really nice.” The nurse was a little embarrassed by the praise. She smiled and felt that Dr. Landor’s boyfriend was friendly.

Hackett turned around and went to the consultation room. He sat on Sherri’s office chair. From time to time, he would look at his phone. He was a little anxious and nervous. He did not know how to coax her.

At this moment, he was a little vexed Why didn’t he buy a bouquet first just now! He had been careless Forty-five minutes later, Sherri stretched her neck and walked past the front desk with her hands on her waist. The nurse stopped her. “Dr. Landor.” Sherri stopped and leaned against the front desk. She stared at the nurse and asked in confusion, “What's wrong?” The nurse said mysteriously. “Dr. Landor, your boyfriend is waiting for you in the office. He has been waiting for almost an Chapter 194 hour. Hurry up and go to your office.” Sherri was surprised. Her trial boyfriend was here. Hmph, he still dared to come. He said he would bring her delicious food daily, but he had only brought her food for a few days before forgetting to send her lunch today. Indeed, he was not trustworthy However, she smiled and said, “Alright. Thank you. Your lipstick today is nice” The nurse thought. “You both are indeed a couple. Even the way you both praised me is the same.” Sherri stood at the door and calmed herself. Her face quickly turned cold. She reminded herself not to fall for Hackett's honey tongue. She had to hold it in.

She reminded herself to calm down and embrace herself.

Then, Sherri walked into the consultation room with a cold expression, as if she did not see Hackett. She did her work without glancing at him, much less paying attention to Hackett.

Hackett thought, “Great! Im invisible to her now.” Sherri’s intention of ignoring him was so straightforward that it was apparent that she was angry. She could have just written “I am angry on her forehead.

He quickly got up and walked over. He turned her body to face him and said apologetically. “I'm sorry. | realize what | have done.

Can you forgive me just once? Only once. | promise there won't be a next time.” He sincerely clasped his hands and apologized, waiting for Sherri’'s answer.

In the end, Sherri still ignored him. She pushed his hands away and turned around to tidy up the desk. This made Hackett anxious. The probation period was not over yet. He didn’t want to be “fired”. It was all Trevon’s fault for saying something like that.

He followed Sherri wherever she went. He was like her tail, kept wagging beside her. He kept apologizing. I'm sorry. Why don’t you punish me? Anything is fine. Don’t ignore me. If you ignore me. I'll panic. We agreed that although you get angry, you can’t terminate my probation period halfway. That is against our agreement.” Sherri had given in a little. At the very least, Hackett was afraid that she would end their relationship because of this. Could it be understood that Hackett wanted to be with and liked her? However, she still put on her stands. Otherwise, in the future, this fellow would apologize and get forgiven easily every time he made a mistake. This would repeat. She asked calmly. “What did you do wrong?” Seeing that Sherri was already speaking to him, Hackett was delighted and said truthfully, | overslept and didn’t deliver lunch to my girlfriend on time.” Then, he added. “I guarantee that this will be the last time. There will definitely not be a next time. | also guarantee that there will be meat for every meal in the future” His silly words amused Sherri. “Alright, I'm in a good mood after helping deliver two babies this afternoon, so I'll give you a chance for now. Look at how caring Mr. Wilson is. He changes the menu for Natalie every day.” Hackett disagreed and retorted, “Trevon is not as caring as me. He paid someone to send it over. | bring you lunch myself. Miss Natalie, can't you tell which of us is more caring?” Sherri thought about it and agreed. It seemed that Hackett had put in a little more effort.

Hackett continued to admit his mistake generously. “l am sorry about today. Punish me. After work, I'll take you shopping at the mall in Athana. I'll pay for everything you choose. Is that okay?” Sherri was silent for a long time and did not answer. She seemed to be thinking.

Hackett continued to tempt her. “My bank card has been a little overloaded recently. Please help me use some of the money init.” This was the first time Sherri had heard such a ridiculous reason. He could just do it if he wanted to buy something for her as compensation. It was silly to find such a speechless reason. However, she was already in a good mood. She smiled. “Alright, since you have requested sincerely, I'll spend some of it. You don’t have to thank me for it,” Hackett quickly said, “I thank you on behalf of my family.” Why did these words sound so unpleasant? Sherri’s face turned gloomy. “Are you mocking me?” Hackett was not scolding her. He was telling the truth. If his mother knew that Sherri was willing to spend his money, she would be overjoyed. She would probably send him a bank card and ask if it was enough for Sherri to spend. “I'm not scolding you. You have misunderstood my words” Sherri put her hands on her hips. A second ago, she had just forgiven him. Yet he was taking advantage of it again. “Hackett! Have | forgiven you too soon? Are you sure you are here to apologize?” Seeing that his girlfriend's expression turned gloomy, he quickly apologized again. “I'm sorry. Let's not talk about this. I'll wait for you to get off work.” Sherri glared at this shameless man but was still in a good mood.

After that, Hackett had his eyes on Sherri. Seeing that she was busy, he waited quietly at the side patiently.
