Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon) novel Chapter 531

Chapter 531

In Christina’s room.

It was Joseph’s first time staying in Christina’s room, but he did not feel uncomfortable. He naturally lifted the blanket and got into bed. It was as if he was at home. He did not feel uneasy or uncomfortable at all.

The two of them were discussing something side by side.

Since those three people interrupted them intermittently and dissipated their burning emotions, Joseph planned to talk to Christina about something serious. “Christina, have you seen the engagement gift list my father brought?”

“Yes, I did.” Christina adjusted the blanket and sat up. Then, she handed Joseph the list his father had given her from the bedside table.

Joseph took it. He still did not know what engagement gift his father had prepared, so he was also curious. He took it and looked at it. The list of things was quite generous. It was all shares, including some of the Turner family’s businesses. “Do you think it’s too little?”

Christina tilted her head like a little girl leaning on Joseph’s shoulder. She pointed at the list and said seriously, “Joseph, I don’t like our marriage to be tied down by these things. I especially hate those television dramas where the woman requests to add her name to all of the man’s assets, you know? Also, I hate to be like some people who fight for more engagement gifts even before getting married. I hope our relationship is pure. If I really have to take something, we’ll exchange 10% of company’s shares and forget about the rest.”

This could be considered as planting a root in each other’s company.

Christina was not young, but she had a very simple requirement for relationships. Although these things could reflect the Turner family’s attitude, she still did not intend to accept them. She could accept the benefits from the business that she. would work for with Joseph in the future, but she could not take the shares of the businesses that Joseph’s parents had worked for their entire lives with a clear conscience.

She simply did not want to appear out of nowhere and reap the harvest of others.

Christina’s thoughts were different from others. She liked to work hard for the things she received. It would give her a sense of accomplishment.

Joseph immediately understood what she meant. He pointed at the list and said, “These aren’t my father’s assets. They’re my own. You can accept them with a clear conscience.”

As he spoke, he pulled her into his arms and kissed her forehead. If it were any other woman, they would probably be jumping out of joy at this moment. However, this woman did not want it at all and even asked for an exchange.

“Put it away and explain to your father.” Christina still had no intention of accepting them. “I’ll explain to my father. I can only accept an exchange of 10% of the shares.”

The Yamin family was not short of money either. Her parents would definitely understand her actions.

Sensing the emotions in the man’s eyes and his primal thoughts, Christina quickly said. “Stop. We’ll have a truce tonight.

let me recover my energy?” She felt like she was about to be sucked dry.

Can you

She had reason to suspect that this man was a literal vixen.

Seeing a little panic in Christina’s eyes, Joseph laughed. ‘Am I that scary?’ he wondered. He only required a little longer time than others. That was all. “Christina, let’s go for a run together tomorrow.” He had to train his stamina.

“We’ll talk about it tomorrow.” She had a habit of running occasionally, mostly depending on her mood.

“Go to sleep. I won’t touch you. I’ll let you conserve your energy. Let’s go get our marriage certificate after the new year, okay? Do you want to get it at Athana or Sapphire City?”

After the marriage matters were settled, Christina lay down and snuggled into Joseph’s arms. “Anywhere is fine. Where do you prefer? If you think Athana is more ceremonial, we’ll get it in Athana. If you think Sapphire City is more satisfactory, I’ll arrange it for you.”

Joseph smiled. This was how it felt to have a fiancée who was capable. “Sapphire City, I want you to be a part of the Turner family.”

“In Athana, you’re a part of my family. In Sapphire City, I’m a part of your family. Fair?” Christina looked up at him and replied with a smile.

“Sure. It couldn’t be fairer.”

At noon the next day.

In the parking lot of Grand Manor, there were several luxury cars parked side by side. It was obvious that they belonged to someone powerful.

Inside a private room, four families gathered. They were the Wilson family, the Roberts family, the Turner family, and the

Yamin family.

A grand total of 13 people were sitting at the round table. Trevon and Natalie were called over by Emma. Natalie and Trevon were from the Turner family, so of course, they had to be present when discussing marriage in Athana.

As for the Yamin family, Chris was missing. The reason was very simple. Chris did not like such occasions. Plus, he was afraid. that he would become the focus of the conversations. His sister was married now, so he would definitely be the next one.

Chris could predict with absolute certainty that his mother’s next target would be him. Since he could not afford to offend her, he could always hide.

They were seated in the order of the Yamin family couple, Joseph, Christina, the Turner family couple, the Roberts family couple, Frank, Ava, Stella, Natalie, and Trevon.

Trevon was wearing dark gray double-sided cashmere. His hair was combed neatly as if it was his marriage they were going to discuss today. In comparison, Joseph was dressed much more casually. He was wearing a sweater and a down jacket. This down jacket was the same style as Christina’s. His was black, and hers was white.

Clearly, it was a couple outfit. In a place where no one could see, the corners of Trevon’s lips curled up, surprised at how Joseph and Christina would wear that despite being well over the usual age.

However, when he saw the outfits of Ava and Frank, he finally realized that he had made a mistake. At this moment, it became apparent that these people were all here to show off their love. Frank and Ava were also wearing matching outfits. They were wearing sweaters and down vests of the same color.

Trevon was speechless.

William always thought that the success of the two youngsters was thanks to him, so he was smug and wanted Charlie to thank him all the time. Realizing that there was one person missing, he asked, “Where’s your kid?”
