Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon) novel Chapter 722

Jasper returned to the Wilson's residence and started to set off fireworks with Olivia.

Olivia and Jasper lit fireworks in the courtyard one after another as they did when they were young. The fireworks that kept flashing with starlight looked especially dazzling in the night.

It was just that his year's mood of setting off fireworks was different. Something was missing. Yes, there was no more of Sophia's laughter here this year.

Daniel and Emma stood at the door and looked at Olivia playing with fireworks alone in the courtyard. She looked a little lonely, and they felt upset. Emma adjusted her shawl, casually tied a knot on her chest, and slowly walked toward Olivia.

She bent down and picked up a fireworks stick. "Jasper, help me light it. It's been a long time since I played with fireworks. I want to reminisce, too."

The fireworks in Jasper's hand had long been extinguished. However, he was still holding them. He looked up at Sophia's room. When he heard Emma's words, he came back to his senses. Then, he threw away the fireworks stick that had long been extinguished. "Oh, okay."

He took out a lighter from his pocket and lit the fireworks. Emma smiled at Jasper. Emma was an extremely gentle person, to begin with. Her smile was always very reassuring. As she grew older, she became more loving.

Daniel did not want the courtyard to be too quiet. He thought the Christmas atmosphere with Sophia around in the past should be lively. Sophia was never quiet. "I'll give it a try too. Jasper, please give me one. It's been long since I played fireworks with your Grandma Emma," said Daniel.

Natalie came out of the living room. She saw Daniel and Emma smiling like children in the courtyard as they played with fireworks with Olivia. Meanwhile, Jasper, who usually did not take photos, picked up his phone and took pictures of everyone.

Natalie knew why her son was doing this. He probably wanted to keep this scene and share it with Sophia when she woke up.

Upstairs, Trevon stood by the window with his hands in his pockets and looked down at the lively scene downstairs for a long time.

With a bang, a big firework bloomed in the sky. Light and shadow danced, dyeing the dark sky with a gorgeous color.

One after another, fireworks bloomed incessantly. They were so colorful, leaving the most beautiful moment in everyone's hearts. Then, they quietly fell and dissipated in an orderly manner. The fireworks of different shapes and colors were like attending a grand banquet, trying their best to show their beauty.

Trevon opened all the windows. The light from the fireworks shone on Sophia's face. It swayed and flickered, adding to the liveliness of the quiet room.

In the courtyard, Olivia shouted at the window, "Sophia, there are fireworks. They're so beautiful."

"Sophia, it's Christmas. Merry Christmas. I hid the present under your pillow. You received a lot of Christmas presents," said Trevon.

It was the first Christmas Sophia didn't loudly tell Trevon Merry Christmas.

It was the first Christmas Sophia didn't practice boxing in the courtyard with fireworks. Trevon still remembered that Sophia's clothes were burned when she set off fireworks when she was young.

Previously, Sophia's naughtiness had given Trevon a headache. But now, he missed it so much. Even if Sophia blew the Wilson's residence up today, Trevon could indulge her. He wouldn't blame her. He just wanted her to wake up.

The door was pushed open, and Jasper walked in. He looked out of the window and saw that the fireworks were beautiful. He sat down on the chair.

The father and son, one on each side, protected Sophia like two guardian gods. However, neither of them spoke. After a moment, it was still Trevon who said, "Have you gone to look for Ruby?"

"Yeah." Jasper nodded.

Trevon looked at his son and said calmly, "Let Ruby stay home to spend more time with her family after Christmas."

Jasper did not answer. Ruby seemed gentle, but she was also very stubborn. "Let's delay the wedding date. We'll talk about it when Sophia wakes up."

"What? Is it Ruby's idea?" Trevon understood his son and knew how much he cared about Ruby. He would not suddenly change the wedding date. The wedding date had been announced before Christmas. Once it was changed, it would inevitably be discussed and speculated.

Jasper replied, "Yes, she wants Sophia to be her bridesmaid."

Trevon didn't know how to judge Ruby's actions. He was touched but also felt sorry for Ruby. "Ruby is a good girl."

"We'll get our marriage certificate on 8 January," Jasper said. He decided that he would make up for the wedding he owed her.

Since Jasper and Ruby had already decided, Trevon didn't intend to interfere. He asked, "Have you asked Hackett?"

"Yes, he agreed," Jasper replied.

"That's good," Trevon nodded.

Under the blanket, Sophia's fingers moved twice, but it stopped again immediately after that.

On Christmas Day, the Blackwell Group posted a notice that the wedding date had been postponed due to special reasons and that the specific date would be announced later.

Just as Trevon had expected, all kinds of speculations were everywhere. This news became the topic of everyone's discussion when they were free. Everyone was discussing and guessing if Jasper and Ruby had broken up, if their personalities were incompatible, if Hackett was unwilling to marry off her daughter, and so on.

Even Paula and her assistant Winnie, who both went home for Christmas, sent messages to ask Ruby if Hackett had a mistress. They all had very vivid imaginations.

Surprisingly, even Priscilla, who usually did not ask about gossip, sent a message to ask about Ruby's situation. Of course, she sounded concerned. [Ruby, is your relationship with Mr. Wilson alright?]

Ruby replied, [We're fine, Ms. Benson. Don't worry.]
