Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon) novel Chapter 503

Chapter 503

No one spoke. William stood up and patted his son on the shoulder. “How can you let Christina treat you? Christina, let’s go. I will treat you to a meal.”

Christina felt that Frank’s father was much likable than before. He no longer put on airs and acted cool. He was very down-to-earth.

In the past, William had always put on airs when he was doing business. He wore a cold expression and emanated a strong aura. There would be many people following him. Wherever he went, people would wonder if he was shooting a movie. Actually, Christina didn’t know that there were two groups of bodyguards around the golf course. One of them belonged to the Turner family, and the other belonged to the Roberts family!

Christina said politely, “William, let me do it. It’s rare for us to meet, and there aren’t many opportunities like this. Since you’re older than me, let me do something nice for you.”

Frank shrugged his shoulders and did not refuse. “Let’s go, Miss Millionaire.”

Since Christina had already said so, no one refused. However, Frank wouldn’t let Christina pay in the end. It was just an excuse for Christina to eat together with them.

When they arrived, they were driving a commercial car that could seat seven people. Now that there was an additional Christina, there was no room for them. However, William quickly came up with an idea. He had arranged everything before they left the golf course. “Christina, did you drive here?”

“Yes, William.”

William said, “Can I trouble you to give Joseph a ride? It was fine when we came, but on the way back, my bodyguards’ car broke down. It can’t be driven anymore.”

Christina was skeptical. She did not know if the car had really broken down, or if it was faked. Even if William had lied about it being broken down, with so many people watching, she was too embarrassed to refuse. She agreed readily. “William, how about a few people come over to share a ride with me? My car can still accommodate three.”

William waved his hand. “No need. Joseph can go over to yours first. The bodyguards have already called someone to come to fix the car.”

Christina thought, “So, it’s just that there’s no room for Joseph. The car was also damaged because of Joseph. Can William be any more obvious?”

She smiled helplessly and did not reject him. “Alright, William. We’ll wait for you at the hotel. See you later.” She nodded politely at him.

She did not forget the proper etiquette, and her behavior was impeccable.

Emma smiled. “See you later. Sorry for the trouble.”

“It’s no trouble. It doesn’t inconvenience me anyway,” Christina replied with a smile.

Ava held Frank’s hand and playfully wayed at Christina. She said enthusiastically, “Pretty lady, see you later.”-

Christina replied, “See you later.”

The few people who had not left looked at the two people who were walking away. They appeared very compatible. Grace could not help but smack William lightly on his arm. “You came just short of writing the word ‘matchmaker’ on your forehead.”

It was too obvious. Thankfully, Christina was sensible and didn’t put everyone on the spot. Grace didn’t like forcing a match like this. If one of the parties wasn’t interested, it would make both of them feel awkward.

However, it seemed that Christina and Joseph didn’t seem to dislike each other. Instead, they got along quite well. As for whether they could get along with each other or not, she had no idea.

William grinned. “You can’t blame me for this. Charlie called me and asked me to compensate a son-in-law to them. She insisted that I help her look for someone. Apparently, there is a man who has been courting Christina for a long time, but Christina does not agree. Her parents are afraid that the relationship will be ruined. I got the call on Christmas Eve. They want me to see if there’re any suitable men for her.”

Avà caught the main point. “Ah! Does the pretty lady already have someone courting her? Wouldn’t it be inappropriate for my brother to make a move?”

William said proudly to his future daughter-in-law, “She’s just being courted. It’s not like she already has a boyfriend. Besides, for an outstanding girl like her, it wouldn’t be odd to have a lot of suitors. In the past…”

Grace stopped William in time. “It’s almost time to go. Christina is probably already halfway there.”/

Emma didn’t pay attention to the fact that Christina was being currently courted by another. Outstanding and beautiful girls, as long as no one was blind, stood out wherever they went. There would also be people who wanted to seek their favor,

No matter what type of personality the woman had, everyone would like her.

However, from their interactions, Emma guessed that her son and the girl had known each other for a long time. The collaboration they were talking about was probably not the same kind of collaboration she knew. Emma did not know what it was exactly.

Grace saw that Emma was deep in thought and did not speak. She took the initiative to put her arm around Emma’s shoulders. “Don’t worry. Christina has a good character. She won’t do anything rash, especially when it comes to relationships. Over the years, the Yamin family has arranged many blind dates for her. If Christina doesn’t like them, she will reject them directly. She won’t flirt with them nor lead them along. As for her career, she also relied on her own efforts. She never takes the easy way out or resorts to any dishonest means.

It was also what Frank and Grace liked most about Christina.

Emma nodded. “Joseph is usually too busy. Ordinary girls really won’t understand his busy schedule.”

There was nothing between Joseph and Christina at present, so Emma no longer worried unnecessarily. However, she still wondered that if her future daughter-in-law was also a strong career woman, wouldn’t it be difficult for her son and daughter-in-law to meet up?

Forget it. As long as Joseph liked her, they would arrange their own time.

Not participating or interfering in the children’s lives was another form of letting go and respecting the children.

Ava, who was following behind them, was still focused on the problem that there was someone courting Christina. Frank held her waist and bent down slightly. “What are you thinking about?” Her little cheeks were puffed up, and she was pouting. It was obvious that she was upset.

William walked side by side with Daniel. William was telling him about the Yamin family.

Ava looked up at Frank and said, “Do you think my brother likes that pretty lady?”

Whether Joseph liked her or not, Frank didn’t know. He did not have telepathy and so wasn’t privy to Joseph’s thoughts. But Frank could deduce that Joseph didn’t dislike her. When had he ever seen Joseph get along so well with a woman?

It couldn’t be because Christina was a strong, outstanding woman who was tomboyish, right?

There were many people in Sapphire City who were more outstanding than Christina, but Joseph did not hang out with any of them. However, Frank had already observed them just now. Joseph and Christina had known each other for a long time, and it was not for a month or two. “Do you need me to investigate?”
