Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon) novel Chapter 453

Chapter 453

At this moment, everyone had taken their seats by the long table in the courtyard of the Roberts villa.

On one side sat Trevon, Natalie, Ava, and Frank, and on the other sat Hackett, Sherri, Rose, and Edward.

Trevon had been taking care of Natalie since he took his seat. “Honey, I’ll get you whatever you want to eat. Let’s eat less roasted neat. It’s not healthy enough. Do you want kiwis?”

Trevon was worried that she might suffer from constipation in the later stages of pregnancy.

Therefore, he didn’t dare to let Natalie eat too much roasted meat, and she planned to do as he said in case he got too nervous. “Get me a can of yogurt and that little cake. I feel like having something sweet.”

Trevon reached out and placed the stuff Natalie wanted to eat in front of her. “Okay”

On the other hand, Ava acted differently. She did not need Frank’s help to get the things she needed. She reached out to take them and asked Frank beside her, “What do you feel like eating, Frank? I’ll get it for you?

She could not have Frank take care of her every time. She had to learn to take care of him so that they could work hard together.

Hearing what she said, Frank was stunned by her sudden care. A few seconds later, he smiled and said, “I’ll have whatever you get me.”

Sherri did not look like a pregnant woman at all. She stood up and sat down. She helped herself with the food. Hackett, who was beside her, felt greatly troubled. “Give me some leeway to show my concern, dear. You should be seated”

“I’ve given you the chance to do that. Forget it, you will do it. Help me get a glass of lemonade. It looks quite delicious”

Rose was taking care of Edward, but Edward was obviously taking care of her too. It could be said that they were taking care of each other. Rose took care of Edward because they were in the Roberts villa after all. Other than being his girlfriend, she was still the host.

Edward took care of Rose because he was a gentleman. He was deeply rooted in the belief that guys should take care of ladies and take responsibility.

“It’s rare for all of us to get together. We can’t just sit around and eat and drink. We have to show our strengths, such as singing or dancing.”

Hackett made that proposal when he looked across everyone at the table.

Sherri felt that her husband was right. She picked up a grape and stuffed it into Hackett’s mouth as a form of praise. “That makes sense.”

“Thank you, honey. Mwah!”

“Mwali

Trevon looked at Hackett in disdain. “Do you need to get Frank’s room?”

Frank objected. ‘It’s not for other people.”

He thought, “That room is for me and Baby Ava. What is Trevon thinking? How could he possibly ask some couple to use my room?”

Natalie said, “Fortunately, Stella said that she wasn’t available today. Otherwise, she would have had a hard time dealing with the couples here.”

Everyone present was in pairs. Stella would be alone if she came over without anyone to accompany her. The only one who could accompany he was Pat.

Jim had recently been demoted and had been unemployed as a driver for a long time. He was still working overtime in the company and was also a bitter worker.

Ever since she got pregnant, Jim had been having a tough time working. He worked overtime for a long time. What could comfort him the most was the increase in the price of overtime pay.

As soon as the guys talked about playing games, Rose agreed with Hackett’s proposal. Under the table, Edward held Rose’s hand. “Tell me if you want to play games. I’ll arrange whatever game you want to play for you. I guarantee you’ll be satisfied.

Frank looked up at his sister, who was smiling brightly. It was obvious that she was really happy. Meanwhile, Edward’s sister, who had always been carefree, did not feel that Rose was too perky at all.

He smiled faintly.

“Come on. Let’s play some games. We don’t have much chance to come to Frank’s villa, and it’s rare for everyone to have a gathering. Also, Ava the Little Princess is finally having her summer break. Other than having fun, there’s nothing we should do. Hackett said with a chuckle.

Trevon praised him indifferently, but there was no real praise in his tone. “You used the analogy well. You’re now a literate

man.”

Hackett said, “It’s what I said that matters.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Rose let go of Edward’s hand. “I need to get something.” With that, she stood up and ran into the villa.

Everyone at the table was dumbfounded. Rose was very fast, and she was no longer in sight. Trevon raised his drink at Edward and said, “Your endurance is not bad.”

Edward didn’t answer this question, but he knew what Trevon meant. It meant that Rose couldn’t focus and could easily get distracted with her personality. Why did she suddenly leave now?

But Edward didn’t get worried.

Not long after, Rose returned with an unopened package. She placed it on the ground. Edward was about to go over to help when he was stopped by Rose. “Thank you, but no. Take your seat.”

However, Edward still stood up and walked to her side to help her open the package.

Rose was a professional at opening packages. She took the bottle opener on the table and cut the package when the tape broke.

When the box was opened, Edward took out the things inside and placed them on the ground

Rose opened the package next to Sherri, who was the first to speak. Her face was filled with shock as she suddenly raised her voice. “Are these wooden pegs?”

“Rose, why did you buy these things? Are you going to use them as punishment in the game?”

“Well, pregnant women won’t be punished. If you lose the game, your husbands will take your punishment,” Rose said seriously.

Hackett said, “I suppose only men are targeted then. Did you specially prepare these things for us?”

“Hey, they’re brand new, and you should be honored that you’ll be the first ones to use them.”
