Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon) novel Chapter 493

Chapter 493

After saying the good news, it was time for the bad news. They were still excited about the good news.

Rose said the bad news. Even Edward, who was beside her, wanted to know what the bad news was.

Rose said, “The bad news is that you’re going to be grandpa, grandma, and uncle.” She laughed suddenly.

Edward was speechless.

After hearing the bad news, Grace, William, and Frank heaved a sigh of relief. Frank really wanted to slap Rose. He thought, “Why is Rose so childish?”

Perhaps because this surprise came too suddenly, the three people on the sofa did not say anything. At that time, there were tears in Grace’s eyes.

William looked at Rose with mixed feelings. He pursed his lips and did not speak. He was no longer as cute as usual. Instead, he was very serious.

The atmosphere was very quiet. Even Frank, who had always been sharp-tongued, didn’t say anything. Seeing that no one was talking, Edward eased the atmosphere and expressed his stance in advance. “William, Grace, Frank, I’ll take good care of Rose. Don’t worry.”

A promise broke the silence. They came back to their senses. William was actually at a loss for words. It was Grace who spoke first. She smiled at Rose, hiding the tears in her eyes. “I’m glad that you will be parents. Congratulations!”

Grace and Rose looked at each other. There were tears in Rose’s eyes, making her could not see Grace’s face clearly. They didn’t say anything, but their feelings were transmitted in an instant.

Frank pressed his tongue against the base of his teeth and exhaled. In the end, he did not say anything.

The few of them chatted in the living room for a few hours. It was Grace who told Rose to be careful, and William who told Edward to take good care of Rose. There was even a threatening tone in his words.

In the study upstairs, Grace couldn’t sleep. She sat alone in the study and flipped through the photos of Frank and Rose when they were young. A tear rolled down her cheek and landed on the photo album, gradually spreading.

William pushed the door open and saw Grace secretly wiping her tears. He was heartbroken as he closed the door again. He walked over and put his arm around Grace’s shoulder, pressing her into his chest. Without saying anything, he quietly patted Grace’s shoulder and stroked her hair.

He companied her silently. It was so quiet that one could hear the sound of a needle dropping.

After a while, Grace moved away from William’s chest. William raised his hand and wiped her face with his fingers. “Why are you crying like Rose? I’m not even crying. Why are you crying?”

As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit by Grace.

William was not angry. He even smiled. “Go ahead. If you want to vent, I’ll exercise with you. Are you going?”

“Why are we going now? It’s already so late. Don’t you want to sleep?”

William continued to smile and wiped the tears from Grace’s eyes. He could understand why Grace was crying. Sure enough, the next second, Grace took a deep breath and said with reddened eyes, “I haven’t made up for Rose yet.” And she was getting married and becoming a mother.

At this moment, Grace was no longer as cold as usual.

William squatted down and held Grace’s hand. He kissed the back of her hand and comforted her softly. “Grace, Rose has already reconciled with the past. It’s time for you to reconcile. Let bygones be bygones. Rose is about to become a mother now, but no matter how old she is, she’s still our precious daughter. We can dote on her however we want. In the future, you don’t need to say made up for her. We should dote on her.”

Outside the door, Edward originally did not want to eavesdrop, but when he heard Rose’s name mentioned, he could not help but stop in his tracks at the door of the study.

Only then did he vaguely hear their words. William and Grace in the study were recalling Frank and Rose’s childhood.

Frank opened the door and came out. He saw Edward standing at the door of the study, squinting. “What are you doing?”

“Nothing. Help Rose get some water.” That’s right, a few minutes ago, Rose said that she was thirsty and wanted to drink water. Edward went downstairs to take some.

“Do

you want to get some water in the study?”

Edward didn’t answer this question. The water in the cup sloshed for a while. “Let me ask you something.”

Frank leaned his shoulder against the wall and said listlessly, “Okay, ask.”

“I’ll send the water to Rose first. Wait for me.” Pushing open the door, Edward placed the poured water on the table and said

to Rose on the bed, “Rose, I have something to discuss with Frank. I’ll be over in a while.”

“Okay, go. Anyway, we could not do anything tonight. You two have a good chat.”

Rose waved her hand and kept talking.

Edward was speechless.

Frank, who was at the door, did not leave. He was waiting for Edward to ask questions. Seeing him come out, Frank brought Edward into his room to chat. Edward followed closely behind and closed the door.

After being married to Rose for so long, this was the first time Edward had entered Frank’s room. Last time, Frank refused to let Hackett in even if he wanted to. Edward was quite lucky to be invited in.

He looked around the room and saw all kinds of dolls on the bed. The first thing that came to Edward’s mind was that they were indeed siblings.

The bed was filled with strange things. There were strange blankets and pillows on the bed of Rose, and cute dolls on the bed of Frank. His bed was filled with these things. It was difficult to imagine such a cold man sleeping in the middle of a pile of dolls at night.

No wonder Hackett was not allowed to enter the room last time. Edward stood at the door and imagined the reason why Hackett could not enter Frank’s room.

Frank looked at Edward’s confused gaze. These dolls were all prepared for the little girl. He did not intend to explain to Edward. “Do you want to drink? How about coke?”

“Either is fine.”

Frank threw him a can of coke, which had a red shell. Edward opened it and took a sip. He asked directly, “Can I ask what happened between Rose and Grace before? I don’t mean anything else. I just want to know their past. It’s fine if it’s not convenient to say.”
