Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon) novel Chapter 507

Chapter 507

Before Ava could come out of the bathroom, there was a knock on the door. Frank did not continue speaking and went to open the door.

Outside the door, Joseph handed over a cup of warm water with honey and instructed, “Let Baby Ava drink it. Don’t let her walk barefoot on the ground. If you have the time, look up on the internet what to do.”

Frank took the hot beverage from him and replied, “Okay.”

Joseph politely withdrew and went to the parlor, where the parents of the Turner family and the Roberts family were chatting and playing chess.

After a while, Ava came out. Her small hands were still tidying up her clothes. “I think I heard my brother’s voice just now.”

Frank placed the warm water with honey on the bedside table and went to help the little girl. He asked, “Yes. Are you feeling okay? Drink this cup of warm water with honey first.”

Ava sat down by the bed, picked up the cup, and drank it. Frank went to the dressing room.

“Frank, what are you looking for?” Ava was puzzled because she was wearing pajamas. Frank had also taken a shower before he went out. His pajamas were still on the bed.

The room was heated, so there was no need to wear thick clothes. It felt like spring in here. The entire villa was maintained at that temperature.

Just as Ava was feeling puzzled, Frank took out a set of pajamas and handed them to Ava. “Change out of your nightdress and change into this. Don’t catch a cold.”

Although he did not have a deep understanding of this area, he knew that she needed to keep warm.

“Be good, Baby Ava. If you catch a cold, you won’t be able to go anywhere.”

“Alright. You take the cup. I’m going to change.” Ava obediently handed the cup to Frank. She picked up the pajama pants and

put them on. Frank walked out of the room. Actually, Ava was no longer shy. She could change her clothes while the lights were on.

After such a long time with him, she had become inured to it.

Outside the door, Frank waited for the little girl to come out. He held the cup in one hand and leaned against the door. Naturally, he thought that she would still be shy and not like to change her clothes while the lights were on.

The door opened. Ava wanted to say that she was no longer shy, but in the end, she leaned close to Frank’s ear and said, “You can help me change next time.”

After saying that, she leaned back and smiled. She even winked playfully. Frank’s eyes darkened, but there was nothing he could do. He sighed helplessly and could only hold the little girl’s hand as they went downstairs. “Let’s go. Let’s go to the parlor to take a look.”

After successfully teasing him, Ava’s face was filled with pride. “Alright.”

At the Yamin family’s residence, when Christina received Joseph’s message, she was already prepared to be interrogated by

her mother.

She immediately turned on her computer to work overtime.

She had planned everything down to the second. Not long after Christina turned on her computer, Angie knocked on her door. “Come in.”

When Angie came in, Christina was still busy typing away on the keyboard. She looked very serious and raised her head slightly. “Mom, what’s the matter?”

Angie pulled out a small chair and sat down. “Christina, is your foreign friend really not in Athana? I think I saw him today.”

Saw him?

It couldn’t be such a coincidence, right? Christina told herself to calm down and not panic.

At the same time, Christina also knew that the deception with Joseph could not last long. Athana was not that big but there were some things that would happen the more one didn’t want it to happen. She chose to continue by semi-lying. “Yes, he is here. He arrived in the afternoon. He told me but I was busy today, so I didn’t go out.”

Then, she pretended to be surprised and said, “Mom, where did you see him?”

Angie carefully observed her daughter’s eyes, wanting to see if she was telling the truth. “At the supermarket. He’s with the Roberts family’s son.”

Her gaze never left her daughter’s face.

Christina was silent. Why was it so coincidental? Forget it. She would just make up something as she went along.

“With Frank? He didn’t tell me that. Mom, you don’t have to look at me like that. We’re not in a relationship yet. I can’t be rude and ask him about all his social interactions.”

Afraid that her mother would call Frank’s mother directly to give her a heads-up, she said, “Also, don’t call Frank or Grace. It’s

very rude to ask around.”

Angie said, “Am I that gossipy? It’s all because you’re always hiding it. If you were to tell the truth, would I keep an eye on you every day?”

“Mom, I’m telling you everything I know now. I’ve said everything I can. Also, every time I go out, I report truthfully to you. If that is not enough for you, just sit beside us the next time I’m out with him.”

Angie glared at her daughter. “You’re not serious at all. Alright. Since he is here in Athana, you can hang out with him and try to get along. Don’t keep looking at the computer for no reason.”

“Alright. We’ll have to see if he’s free.”

Angie did not leave the room. She remained in the chair and asked with concern, “Christina, what is the young man’s job? He can’t not have a proper job. He doesn’t have to be very rich, but he has to have a proper job. We can’t accept someone who can’t be helped.”

Nowadays, there were too many good-looking people who relied on their looks to make a living. Some of them did not even have any morals or ethics. Angie did not fancy those people.

Christina put down her computer and prepared to be interrogated by her mother. “Mom, he’s a university professor. He has a proper job.” Well, at least that should be it. He did not deny it when she asked him on the mountain last time.

Forget it, even if it wasn’t, it had to be. She couldn’t just randomly mention a profession, right?
