Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon) novel Chapter 527

Chapter 527

Joseph lay in bed in his pajamas. He tossed and turned back and forth but just couldn’t fall asleep. He had no one to hold in his arms, and he could not fall asleep no matter what he did. He decided to follow the most honest thoughts in his heart.

The door to his room was not closed. He lifted the blanket and got out of bed. He walked straight to the door of the guest room, pushed open the door, and entered. He naturally lifted the blanket and got into bed.

Christina was in that bed, and Joseph held her tightly in his arms. The empty feeling in his chest was instantly filled. Christina could not sleep either. Her mind was filled with images of Joseph, playing like a slide show.

She had just fallen into a light sleep.

The hug she felt behind her woke her up. Her eyes were slightly puffy, and she wouldn’t turn around. A familiar and pleasant voice came from behind her. “If you’re unhappy, why didn’t you say so? I feel bad knowing you’re holding it in. Christina, I can’t sleep without hugging you.”

At this moment, Joseph looked like an unhappy child. Christina really wanted to ask who was more aggrieved in this situation. She felt like she had been cheated on.

Joseph hugged Christina from behind very tightly. He did not ever want to lose her after being together with her. He pressed his chin against her back and kissed her through her pajamas. His warm breath hit her ear. “I’m sorry I didn’t give you an explanation immediately. Why didn’t you tell me that you saw the message?”

Christina didn’t say anything. Joseph didn’t feel anxious. He just kissed her back occasionally. “That message was from the daughter of my father’s good friend. She’s also a secretary at my company. She’s six years older than me and divorced.”

Six years older and divorced. Those two points made the silent Christina slowly turn around and face Joseph. Joseph saw her turn around. He did not intend to let the misunderstanding last overnight. He did not want this misunderstanding to stay between him and Christina in the future.

Some misunderstandings could not be resolved. Some misunderstandings could be accumulated over time and could weaken the feelings between a couple, or add passion to it and spice up the romance, However, the only thing that a couple could not allow was to let misunderstandings accumulate overnight.

Perhaps this was Emma’s influence, ever since Joseph was young, he had never seen his parents argue. Even when they had different opinions, they would sit down and calmly discuss them. Unlike many families, they would not argue over a point of view, otherwise, it would be too hurtful.

Gradually, Joseph felt that marriage should be like this. Whether it’s arguments or misunderstandings, when they happen too often, they can affect the relationship. He didn’t want to be constantly in a state of explanation, which was like always trying to unravel a tangled ball of yarn, forever searching for that loose end to straighten things out.

Christina’s eyes were still red. She asked gloomily, “Is she not your girlfriend?” she wouldn’t have suspected anything if the message wasn’t flirty.

He lowered his head and kissed her slightly red eyes. He knew that she was sad and made up his mind not to let this happen again. He felt his heart ache and scratched her nose. “You are my fiancée. How could I have another girlfriend besides you? Christina, you think too highly of me.”

Christina’s eyes were still probing, she seemed that she had more questions. Before Christina could ask, Joseph began to explain, “She’s the daughter of my father’s friend. Her ex-husband is also the son of a wealthy family in Sapphire City. They had been married for a few years and didn’t have any children. Her mother-in-law said she was infertile and forced her to get a divorce. Perhaps because she had experienced being in a marriage with a wealthy family, she hadn’t thought about getting married again. She lives alone and is rather spontaneous in her speech.

“We’ve known her since we were young. We often hang out together when our two families have dinner together. Ava also knows her. We treat her as our older sister.”

Joseph explained everything. Christina asked, “Then why is she working in your company?”

Joseph noticed she was no longer angry and hugged her waist tightly. “She started working at the Turner Corporation after graduating from university…”

He patiently told Christina everything about this woman. He said that this woman had worked in the Turner Corporation since she graduated from university. She went from being an intern to becoming a secretary. Then she was promoted to become a secretary and a manager at the same time. Joseph was most at ease with her being a secretary, so he let her keep the job and didn’t replace her with anyone else.

Joseph also told Christina that this woman’s name was Quinn Price. Everyone in the office called her Miss Quinn. This woman was quite straightforward. When her mother-in-law said she was infertile, she left their family without saying a word or taking anything.

Christina couldn’t help but admire Quinn’s boldness after hearing what Joseph said. She also realized her mistake. “I’m

sorry.

“No, I need to apologize. I didn’t share my interpersonal relationships with you. Can you forgive me for this first mistake that’s caused tension between us? This is the first time I’ve ever dated someone.”

Christina’s assumption clearly caused the tension, but Joseph was the one apologizing to her instead. “Joseph, I was wrong this time. I don’t just like you. I have fallen in love with you. When I saw the message, I was very flustered. I’ve never been so flustered even when discussing the hardest deal of business before.”

Christina did not hide her feelings.

Hearing this, Joseph smiled. He did not know if he should thank this message for making Christina realize this. “I was waiting for you to say this. If you ever feel wronged in the future, please express it to me. Holding it in is unlike your character, Ms. Yamin.”

“Okay then, Mr. Turner, if I say I’m now…” The last few words Christina said were cut off as she pulled Joseph down and said close to his ear. After speaking, Christina kissed his ear and circled it with her tongue.

After being stunned for a few seconds, Joseph held his breath and looked at Christina in his arms with a deep gaze. He smiled and leaned forward to press Christina under him. “I am waiting for this.”

The table lamp in the room was turned off. Under the blanket, the two tried to tell each other how much they loved each other, how much they cared about each other, and how afraid they were of losing each other…

Early the next morning.

Joseph stood Quinn up. Just as Quinn thought Joseph would bring Christina to meet her today, he had already embarked on the journey back to Athana with Christina.

After last night’s incident, Joseph decided to settle his marriage with Christina as soon as possible to prevent anyone from seeking out problems again.

The sky was blue, and the clouds were white. It was a beautiful day with perfect scenery.

A few hours later.

A group of people descended from the plane. This time, in addition to Ethan White, Benjamin Harris also came. Initially, Ethan was unwilling to bring Benjamin along, but this boy was quite clever. He simply called Christina and played cute with

her.
