Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon) novel Chapter 510

Chapter 510

As they were talking, Jasper pushed open the door and poked his head in. He called out softly, “Auntie Ava, Mommy.”

Ava got off the bed and went to hold Jasper’s hand. In the gentlest voice, she asked, “Did you just wake up?”

Jasper nodded. “Yes.”

“You’ve already learned to sleep in. How can you be so capable?” Ava pinched Jasper’s cheek.

Natalie reached out to tidy up her son’s hair and smiled. “He has learned how to laze in bed with the adults recently. He slept with his grandmother last night and only woke up now.”

He did not often laze in bed. But then, anyone would be reluctant to get out of bed in winter. Sometimes, Natalie even held her

pee in because she was unwilling to get out of bed.

Therefore, when Jasper stayed in bed and hid under the covers, Natalie did not say anything. Childhood was so short. It was fine as long as he could grow up freely. It was not a particularly bad habit.

There were three children in the room, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious. The two baby girls in the cradle were already sleeping soundly. Jasper took off his small slippers and raised a little finger to Ava. “Hush… My sisters need to sleep.”

Ava cooperated and lowered her voice dramatically. She said very softly, “I understand. Let’s be quieter.”

Natalie, who was sitting at the side, smiled. Unknowingly, the Little Princess, whom they had been protective of, had already grown up. She might get married next year and might become a mother.

Natalie was already the mother of three children. She could not help but sigh. When she thought about it, she realized she had come a long way.

After lunch, everyone gathered in the living room to look at the children. When he saw the twins and Jasper, William was extremely envious. He hoped that Frank could let him have grandchildren as soon as possible.

Even Grace carried a baby girl in her arms. A gentle smile appeared on her face as Emma played with the child.

The other girl was carried by Daniel. William rubbed his hands and wanted to carry the baby too. When William had his turn at last, he could not bear to put her down.

Since Theo was an old man, and there were children who needed rest too, they were prepared to leave early. William reluctantly put down the child.

In the living room of the Yamin family’s residence, Charlie was still holding the information booklet from last time and marking it with a pen.

Angie, who was sitting at the side, was watching a television drama about a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Angie liked to watch this kind of television drama. After watching it, she could even write a small essay analyzing the plot.

Christina came down in her slippers and casually combed through her curly hair. The ring on her finger reflected the light slightly. She held onto the handrail as she came down. “Mom, aren’t you going to take a nap?”

Angie glanced at her daughter at the stairs. “Later. It’s exciting now. Didn’t Joseph ask you out? I heard from Grace that they are going back after the first week of Christmas.”

“Oh. Yes. Yes. He told me. He has something on today and has already sent me a message.”

Christina had activated the automated lying system when she was talking to her mother. She was becoming very good at lying.

Angie had no choice but to remind her daughter, “Pay more attention. Don’t act as if nothing is going on You’re almost 30 years old. If you really don’t plan to get married, just tell me. I won’t force you to go on blind dates and get married.”

Although that was what she said, she still kept urging Christina to get married. Christina really wanted her mother to watch fewer television dramas about such turbulent marriages, especially of quarrels between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law. However, Christina replied obediently, “Got it, Mom. It’s already 12:30.”

“Alright. You two can continue chatting. I’ll go up and take a nap.

As she spoke, Angie clapped her hands and picked up the remote control to turn off the television. No one watched it even if the television was on. She was the only one in the family who liked to watch such dramas.

When she reached the third step of the stairs, Angie suddenly turned around and warned her daughter, “If Joseph wants to come to the house, don’t try to stop him.”

Christina was speechless in the face of her mother’s naked threat. They had only seen Joseph, but they were already infatuated with him. Indeed, looks did matter. “Got it. I won’t stop him.”

It

was not until Angie went up the stairs and walked into her room that Christina tidied up her red tweed coat and sat down beside Charlie. “Chris went to the hospital again?”

Charlie’s gaze was on the information booklet. He pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and frowned. He said

indifferently and without any hope, “Yes, if he doesn’t go to the hospital, where else can he go? The hospital is his home. This is a hotel to him. He has long forgotten the books you asked him to read. Don’t count on it.”

Christina sighed. There was nothing she could do. It might really be a genetic problem. “There’s nothing we can do about it. Great-grandfather, great-grandmother, and my grandparents are all doctors. It’s just that Stella and I have mutated genes.”

Charlie also took a similar path. However, he was not a doctor. Instead, he opened a private hospital. It was also inseparable from the word hospital.

Noticing Charlie’s serious expression, Christina found it strange. She leaned closer to take a look. “Dad, what are you looking at?”

Charlie took off his glasses and held them in his hand. He pinched the space between his eyebrows and handed the information to his daughter. “Christina, look at these equipment. They are much more functional than what we’re using now. They’re also much more convenient. What do you think?”

Christina took the booklet from him. Christina had personally inspected the hospital’s equipment and discussed the pricing herself. Christina did not dare to give this responsibility to others. She did not dare to be careless when it came to saving the dying and helping the injured. “Dad, hasn’t our supply channel always been Haililand? This isn’t equipment from Haililand. The price per unit is double what we used to pay.”

Christina quickly scanned through the equipment’s introduction and instructions. The last line stating the production location made her widen her eyes. Sapphire City?

“Dad, where did you get this?”
