Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon) novel Chapter 51

Chapter 51 

Time passed quietly. 

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year’s Day. 

Ever since Natalie shared a bed with Trevon at the Wilson’s residence, they did not have much interaction. It was as if it never happened. 

Lately. Trevon seemed quite busy. She had not seen him in the morning, and he came home late at night. When he returned, she was already fast asleep with the door closed. 

As Natalie was lost in her thoughts, her phone rang. It wasn’t an alarm, nor was it a WhatsApp message. It was a call. 

She extended her arm to retrieve her phone, and when she saw the caller ID on the screen, she wore her morning smile. 

“Hello, Edward.” 

A gentle and soft-spoken voice came from the other end of the phone, “Natalie, are you awake? Did I disturb you?” 

“No, I was already awake. I was just about to get up. 111 freshen up and meet Sherri, and then we’ll come to pick you up. Weren’t you supposed to be on the plane at this time?” 

On the other end of the phone. Edward churkled lightly. Then, Natalie only noticed something off now. Edward replied, “Things got done ahead of schedule. I changed my flight last night.” 

“Oh, why didn’t you message me last night? I set my alarm wrong. What time will you arrive? Can we make it in time if we go now?” She glanced at her phone and saw that it was already 2 o’clock. Edward’s original arrival time was 3 o’clock, so she and Sherri would have enough time to go to the airport. 

But it seemed like they were not going to make it on time. They would definitely be late. 

She had set the alarm for 2:10. 

Edward’s voice remained gentle and unhurried. T’m already here. Are you awake?” 

“Just wait for me. I’ll come to pick you up right away.” 

“You…” Before Edward could finish his sentence, there was only silence on the other end of the phone. Natalie always rushed around like this, but she never broke her promises. 

In the airport terminal, at a coffee shop, a man with light gold-rimmed glasses exuded a refined and gentle aura with a touch 

of calmness. 

“Mr. Landor, do we still need to wait for someone?” Edward’s assistant, Kyle Jenkins, was puzzled. They had been off the plane for over an hour, and his boss had been sitting here idly. 

“Yes, they’ll be here soon. You go ahead to the office and get tomorrow’s tasks organized.” 

“Okay, Mr. Landor. And what about you…” 

“I’ll wait for them to pick me up.’ Edward still didn’t look up, occasionally glancing at the pale blue dial of the watch on his 

wrist. 

Kyle couldn’t quite grasp Edward’s thoughts. Richard had initially requested them to go to the office for the handover today. but Edward had postponed it and insisted on arranging things for tomorrow without telling the reason. He only instructed Kyle to go to the office and make early preparations. 

After Kyle left, Edward calmly sipped his coffee, patiently waiting. 

On the other side, Natalie rode her bike to a spot near the Adare Manor, where she could easily hail a taxi. 

Once inside the taxi, she called Sherri. “Miss Landor, where are you?” 

“I’m still asleep. The alarm hasn’t gone off yet,” Sherri answered lazily, her eyes barely opened. 

“Your brother called me. He’s already at the airport, so give yourself 10 minutes to get ready. And if you arrive later than me, you know what to expect” 

Sherri suddenly snapped awake. Was her brother that sly? Without even bothering to put on slippers, she tossed her phone onto the bed and rushed into the bathroom to freshen up. 

Just before leaving, she glanced at the time. It took her only 8 minutes, the shortest time she had ever spent getting ready. She didn’t even have time to apply makeup. Going outside with no makeup was better than getting punished for being late. 

After twenty-four minutes, the two of them arrived at the airport entrance at the same time. 

As Sherri saw Natalie about to get out of the taxi, she quickly handed over a 20-dollar bill. “Keep the change,” she said hurriedly, fearing Natalie would beat her to it. 

Witnessing this scene, Natalie couldn’t help but laugh while covering her mouth. 

She remembered when they were kids, whenever Sherri fell behind, she would be punished severely 

This left a deep shadow in Sherri’s mind 

There was one time they went hiking, and Sherri overslept. Edward and Natalie waited for her at the foot of the mountain for a full hour. When she finally arrived, Edward said, “Sherri, I waited for you for one hour and 7 minutes. Now you climb up alone and wait for us for 2 hours and 14 minutes” 

Sherri grew anxious “Edward, why do I have to climb up alone? What about you and Natalie? 

“We’re going to buy some food You’ll experience what it feels like to wait for someone, Edward replied. 

Sherri went speechless. 

And true to his words. Edward actually did that. He insisted on taking Natalie to the city to buy milkshakes and cakes. claiming they needed the energy after the hike. 

Sherri ended up waiting for several hours before they reached the mountaintop 

Recalling their childhood memories. Natalie couldn’t help but burst into laughter, feeling happy and carefree Being with them was the most relaxing time for her. 

Edward genuinely treated Natalie like a younger sister and took special care of her, even more so than Sherri 

There were many times when Sherri jokingly doubted if she was the one who was adopted and if Natalie was Edward’s real 

sister 

Lost in her thoughts, Natalie snapped back to reality and walked into the airport 

Edward was the kind of person who stood out in a crowd. Even if he kept a low profile, he could still be easily spotted amidst the crowd. 

When Natalie walked through the entrance, Edward was already heading outside, dragging his suitcase.
