Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)

Chapter 368 Kyle Jenkins entered Edward Landor’s office and placed the documents on has boss's desk before starting on his daily report.

“The response to the goods that arrived yesterday was good. Many customers signed long-term partnerships with our company after that Most of them are renovation companies, there are also construction companies.” Edward's furniture store spanned tens of thousands of square feet with just one brand and carried mid to high-end items. He wanted to conquer the Athana market by offering products for all price ranges to satisfy customer requirements at all levels.

The Wilson family and the Roberts family had never dabbled in this trade. Therefore, Edward had a head start in the business Edward glanced at the report Kyle handed to him. He casually pushed his glasses up with his index finger and flipped through it.

“We must watch the goods closely for the next few days. It's only the beginning, and we can’t make any mistakes at this juncture.

Otherwise, both our sales and reputation will immediately be affected. It will be difficult to rebuild our reputation again.

Kyle thought Edward wanted him to go to the pier every day. He immediately replied. “Tl keep an eye on the goods and take a look later. A batch of goods is arriving at noon and another in the afternoon today.” Edward nodded and placed the documents on the table. “You can stay in the office. I'll go take a look.” Kyle was puzzled, but he soon understood what Edward meant. “All right, boss.” It was almost six in the afternoon at the pier.

Alot more people joined the dance exercise today. Almost 25 people turned up, nearly doubling the number yesterday. Rose Roberts led the dance exercise as usual.

She swayed her slender waist while waving her hands in the air like water snakes and dancing to the beat of the music. The crowd was excited, they shouted the dance sequence while swaying to the rhythm. The atmosphere was energetic and lively.

Rose moved vigorously as the leader in the dance exercise.

Edward's car glided to the side of the open space. He could see the activities outside, including every detail, when he rolled down the window. He parked his car in an empty lot soon after, Edward exited the car, took a cigarette, and held it between his hips. It was already past six in the afternoon, and the goods had arrived. Unlike his usual efficient self. Edward stood by the side of the car and smoked calmly.

He looked emotionless under his glasses, and a thin mist of smoke lingered around his well-defined face.

At this moment, Frank Roberts came out of his office to watch the dance exercise and saw how Edward fixed his gaze on his sister. His glare was like a sharp knife darting at Edward. When he saw Rose dancing away without a care, Frank had the sudden urge to drag his sister back into his office.

That was indeed what Frank did the next moment. However, before he could say anything. Edward nodded politely at him and walked to the loading area.

Frank held his tongue and did not say anything. He suddenly thought of Ava Turner, who did not reply to his message for a day. It had been 24 hours. Frank initially thought she was busy at work. However, the longer the time gap, the more he felt something was amiss.

“Rose, come here, Frank shouted at his sister.

The lackeys stopped when they heard Frank calling out, thinking their boss disapproved of their activity. Then, they heard Frank's voice again. “The rest of you continue.” The lackeys were puzzled and took it as permission from Frank. They wondered if he felt they needed training to do their jobs better, Rose panted and asked, “What? Are you going to compliment me?” Frank did not beat around the bush. “Did you contact Baby Ava today?” Frank, who had never felt uneasy in life or unnerving in fights, looked flustered at this moment. He did not believe he could feel this way “No, | didn’t.” Then Rose said the first thought that popped up into her mind. “Did you two fight? Did Ava ignore you for some reason? Frank rolled his eyes at her. “Is that what you think?” “Hmm, that's very strange indeed if you didn’t fight. Given Ava’s affection for you, she would never think of not replying to your messages. Do you want me to call her?” Rose felt it unusual for Ava to be radio silent for so long, knowing how much the latter liked her brother. Ava might not reply to messages from her friends, but never Frank.

All Fransk wanted to know was whether Rose had contacted Ava toilay Now that he had an answer. Frank did not pay much attention to the rest of Roses remarks which were non lie was concerned Betour Rose could say another word, Frank haid already returned to his office and closed the door. Meanwhile, Hose was caught off guard and locked outside her brother’s office Frank was the one who asked Rose a question in the first place and ended up shutting her out when he got the answer “What a heartless and unscrupulous scumbag Rose thought and continued cursing her brother silently with all the prodajuty that came to mind.

Frank's untimely interruption affected Rose's e Back in his office, Frank called Trevon Wilson. “Hello,” he greeted Trevon seemed to be busy on the other end. He said impatiently. “Tm giving my son a bath. What's the matter? It was evident. Trevon did not want to chat with Frank. There was a hint of unigness in his tone Trevon became a changed man when Natalie Foster got pregnant. He left early for work and returned early to help her. He actively participated in family activities and shared house chores. Trevon was also in charge of bathing his son Natalie was pleased. Rachel Wilson helped her previously. But now, it was Trevon’s turn. Natalie felt she was a mother only in time Frank dad not waste time talking about Trevon’s wife or son. He went str make a calp” the point. “Can you ask your wife to help Trevon’s cell phone was on speaker mode. Natale heard their conversation clearly while she stood by the bathroom door.

watching Trevon bathe their son.

“I find it odd that you can’t get hold of Ava. Aren’t you two still in a love bubble? Ava has no reason not to reply to your messages.

Either that or she has found a new toy boy and can’t be bothered with an old hack like you! Trevon teased while busy bathing his son. He was good at multitasking to save time He had mastered the art of killing two birds with one stone.

Frank let out a breath and resisted the urge to curse. He said coldly. “Be a man and help your fellow man. If you want me to respect you as my brother-in-law in the future, you'll have to play along” Trevon had an excellent memory, and he was also vengeful. He instantly recalled asking Frank to help investigate Natalie's whereabouts, but the latter was reluctant. He wanted to take the opportunity to take revenge on Frank. “Is this your attitude of asking someone for a favor, huh? Are you begging me or the other way around Don’t be a drag, bro Frank was at a loss for words. What went around came around. He understood its meaning Frank said the same to Trevon previously. Now, he was on the receiving end.

Trevon continued to make a big deal while he had the upper hand. He was in a good mood. “I don’t care if you call me brother-in- law. There is a long line of prople waiting to call ine that It doesn’t matter if you are one of them,” he said indifferently.

The earth seemed to have stopped turning Natalie could sense the anxiety and forbearance in Frank's voice as she listened on. She walked over and patted Trevon’s.

shoulder to stop him. Then she said into lus cell phone. “Tl call Ava now” Frank thanked her politely.

Natalie chuded Trevon after hanging up the call. “Frank sounds anaitis, yet you joke around with him. How can you do that to hirn? Don’t you want to keep him as a friend? Carry on with what you're doing. I'll go make a call” Trevon did not feel that he was in the wrong. He smiled and reminded Natalie. “Honey, take your time. Watch where you're going, there’s no hurry” Natalie called Ava on the balcony. No one picked up the call after a long while. She called agam and the same thing happened Just as Natalie was about to give up, someone answered the call. It was Joseph Turner.

“Hey, Natalie. Are you looking for Ava?” said Joseph, his voice as gentle as silk.

Natalie frowned. “Have you been busy lately, Joseph Did Ava leave her cell phone at home?* “Ava has a fever and is asleep after taking some medicine. It's a viral infection Many are down with the same ailment while the infection makes its round. Recovering from it will take some time You don’t have to worry, Natalie The doctor has already come by: Ava will be fine soon,” Joseph said on the other end of the line Natalie was worried-no wonder the lively elf was missing in action. Unusual silence always meant something was not right. “Let me know when Ava has recovered, Joseph” Natalie regretted not paying attention to Ava since her pregnancy. She felt guilty not knowing that Ava had fallen ill.

Joseph could sense the concern in Natalie’s tone. He comforted her, ‘I'll get Ava to call you when she wakes up. Don’t worry about her now that you're pregnant. People fall sick all the time. Take good care of yourself instead. You're the center of Sorry, we can't care for you because of the long distance” Josephs words touched Natalie, she felt warm all over. Got it, Joseph. Take care of yourself too, and don’t work too hard.” ng up after chitchatting for a while. She threw her phone onto the bed. Just when she was about to go to the check on Trevon, he walked in with Jasper in his arms while smacking his little buni lovingly. The toddler appeared especially happy and giggled with every smack on his butt.

Natale went straight to the point Joseph said that Ava has a fever and is asleep now. | think she fell sick yesterday. That silly girl probably stopped chatting in the group, fearing that | would be worried. She pretends to be missing in action instead.

Frank so he can stop being so anxious” Jasper was happy to be free of restraints on his body. He spun around on the bed joyously. Trevon reached for Japser’s arm and pulled him to his de However the toddler wanted to keep jumping: his chubby legs kept stretching forward.

Trevon looked on while Jasper wriggled his butt and wanted to play more. The little guy had become naughtier recently and would not listen to him. Where did you form the habit of running around naked?” Trevon said sternly Jasper feels comfortable naked. What are you thinking. Trevon?” said Natalie, siding with her son.

Trevon narrowed his eyes and looked at her in a daze. “What about you, Honey? If only you feel the same as Jasper.” Natalie was speechless.

She glared at him. Trevon quickly collected his thoughts and placed Jasper on the bed to put some clothes on him “Honey, send Frank a message on my cell phone Tell him that Ava has a fever and is dizzy.” Natalie was taken aback. “Ava is asleep, not dizzy” she thought The next second. Natalie figured out Trevon’s intention. “Are you deliberately trying to make Frank anxious to trick him anto going to Sapphire City Are you kidding me. Trevon Wilson™ Moreover Frank was busy managing the pier now that has parents were on a business trip. Frank was the head of the Roberts family now It was not ideal for him to take leave from work at this juncture.

Trevon did not think much of it and thought getting back at Frank was a good idea. However, he wanted to do the right thing.

“Just tell ham the truth, then Its fine by me as long as we're honest. What he does is his business. Otherwise, he'll accuse us of lying to him in the future. | know Frank too well. Honey, what do you think” “Life is not a smooth sail It's better to be an honest person, isn’t it, son? Trevon turned to his son and said.

Jasper was busy having fun and replied cutely, “Yes” The father and son te had deepened over time. Trevon looked and behaved more like a father nowadays. Natalie shook her head and found Franks contact on Trevon’s cell phone. She sent him a message on behalf of her husband and turned off the phone Meanwhile, Frank wared anxiously for an update on Ava Rose saw the uneasiness on her brother's face and found it very strange. “What's the matter with you. Frank? Are you in a hurry to pee? Why do you keep frowning? Go to the toilet if you want to per Frank packed up a piece of tissue on the table and threw it at his sister. “Shut up!” he growled.

The tissue landed on Roses head.

Rose dumbfounded with her cell phone in hand, wondering if something was wrong with her brother.

Frank's phone suddenly dinged. He tapped on the message and panicked. [Ava has a fever. She has been sick since yesterday and has fallen asleep after taking her medicine.] Natale told the truth in the end and did not say that Ava was dizzy. She left it up to Frank to decide his next course of action. She and Trevon would not interfere
