Chapter 128
Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)
Chapter 128 At night. Natalie returned home.
As soon as she entered. Jasper happily threw down the Lego in his hand and ran toward Natalie.
He unreservedly expressed his inner feelings and said. âMommy, letâs play with sand Recently, the little guy had been arranged by her brother every day Every day, he would play outside. He had been having fan outside for an entire week without missing a single day. Now, he even wanted to pla for tomorrow His vocabulary had increased a lot recently. He could even speak quite a few coherent sentences Natalie slowly squatted down and picked up his son. She pinched his chubby little face and said. âJasper, letâs cook something delicious at home tomorrow and invite Ruby over, okay? You havenât seen your sister for a few days. Do you miss her?â
Unexpectedly, the little kid did not compromise and still wanted to play âLetâs take sister to play with the sand togetherâ
He was determined to go.
She gave up on communicating with him and carried him to the living room âAuntie, did Joseph promise Jasper to bring him to play with sand?â
Lena poked her head out of the kitchen and wiped her hands on her apron. She smiled and said, âYes, Mr. Turner calls every day to ask how Jasper is going. This afternoon, he video-called Jasper and asked Mr. White to bring Jasper to the beach tomorrow Jasper remembers thus.â
After saying that, Lena continued to praise Joseph. âMr. Turner is a careful and helpful man. He arranges everything personally every day. He can find all the fun things around. Then, he instructs Mr White to take Jasper there. I wonder which girl can luckily marry such a good man Natalie listened to Lenaâs endless praise of Joseph and felt warm from the bottom of her heart. He was always so meticulous. She felt like she was being taken care of like a daughter. It was blissful to have someone to rely on.
Since her cousin had already made the arrangements, she could not go back on her word. She made a compromise. âAlright, since Uncle Joseph has promised you. Mommy will listen to him. Letâs set off for the beach tomorrow and call Ruby, okay?â
Jasper smiled innocently âYay, okayâ
The next morning, the sun shone through layers of white fog on the bed. The entire world was bright, but this quiet. morning was disturbed by an annoying man Her phone rang It was a friend verification. âRemove me from the blacklist.â
Natalie looked at the message on the phone and ignored it. She threw the phone on the bed and helped the little boy wear clothes.
Today she was sober. He might be on a whim. Itâs better to ignore him.
After dressing her son, she ruffled his hair and called Sherri. âSherri, are you okay? Iâll pick you up when youâre doneâ
Sherri also woke up early. She was very concerned about Rubyâs matters. âAlright, come and pick me up.â
On the beach by the sea. Natalie squatted beside Jasper and played with the sand with him. Sherri suddenly said, âNatalie, I have something to tell youâ
âHmmâ Whatâs the matter?â
Sherri replied, âHackett has been coming to my clinic several times these days. I suspect that his brain is not normalâ
Natalie was a little suspicious. âDonât tell me he knows about Ruby.â
Sherri felt that it was impossible. âI donât think so. I havenât even brought Ruby to the hospital before. My mother hasnât either. They only play around the home.â
âThen he wants to pursue you?â Natalie guessed Sherri was stunned for a moment. âI think thatâs possible. Do you think he has taken a fancy to me? Or why did he come a few tunesâ
Natalie felt that it would be fine if Hackett liked Sherri. As long as he was into her, it would be a happy thing for both of them. âItâs pretty good if he likes you sincerely. Besides, heâs Rubyâs lather. But if heâs playing with your heart, ignore him and stay as far away as possible.â
Sherri retorted. âDonât you think it is ridiculous to describe hini as mucere?â
Then, Sherri added, âI donât believe a prodigal will return. Iâd rather believe that a sow will climb a tree. A leopard canât change its spots like a playboy will never change his habits.â
Natalie found this remark too disgusting.
She didnât intend to say anything else. After all, she wasnât sure what Hackett was thinking. From Rubyâs perspective, it was a good thing, but taking Sherriâs stance, she definitely hoped that he liked her and not on a whim.
The two little kids had a lot of fun. When they returned, Sherri and Ruby slept at Evergreen Gardens as usual. She would bring her daughter back to the Landor family tomorrow.
After helping the two dirty little kids shower, they fell asleep early because they were all tired from playing.
With the protection of the bodyguards, Natalie gave the two aunties a day off today. They returned to the Fosterâs residence.
Sherri wanted to eat supper. âNatalie, do you want beef stew? Iâm a little hungry. Letâs call takeout.â
âAlright, I want to eat it too. Take a shower and Iâll call it. Do you want slightly spicy or extra spicy?â
Sherri thought for a moment. âExtra spicy. Do you have Sprite at home?â
âI donât think so. Ill order a large bottle and weâll share it.â
âAlright, then Iâll go take a shower first. Hurry up. Iâm a little hungry.â
âGot it.â After Sherri entered the bathroom, Natalie searched for the best beef stews on the app. In fact, she wanted to eat durian, but she thought about it and quit this idea. She was afraid that the two little guys would not be able to stand the smell. Besides, Auntie had to come tomorrow, She ordered two extra spicy beef stews, a bottle of Sprite, and a bottle of yogurt.
There were two bathrooms in the suite. She went to the closet to get her clothes and got in the bathroom for a shower. She had just come out of the bathroom and was still drying her hair when she heard the doorbell. She thought that it must be the take-out.
She took a look through the peephole and realized there were no property management personnel. The deliverymen were not allowed to enter this community. After the items were sent to the gate for registration, there would be property staff who would distribute them to the customers so that safety could be ensured.
When she opened the door, it was Josephâs bodyguard, Ethan âMr. White, why are you here?â she asked.
Ethan held takeout in his hand, standing upright. He said politely and respectfully, âMs. Foster, Iâve always been here. If you want to eat anything next time, just let me know and weâll buy it. Itâs for your safety. Also, you can call me Ethan directly.â
Natalie smiled without refusing, âAlright. By the way, Ethan, do you want to come in and eat something?â
âNo, thank you, Ms. Foster. If thereâs anything else you need, feel free to tell me. We will always be readyâ
Natalie did not force them. Josephâs bodyguards were all very well-behaved. âThereâs nothing else for the time being. You guys should rest early too.
Thank you.â
She closed the door and called softly to the guest room. âSherri, come out. The beef stew comes. Hurry up. It hasnât got cold Sherri blew her hair half-dry, and randomly tied a ball head, âSo yummy. What a fast delivery. Pour me some Sprite.â
Natalie poured a glass of Sprite for Sherri and another for herself. âMy cousinâs bodyguard sent it upâ
Sherri clicked his tongue. Joseph is protecting you like a daughter. Thatâs great. Natalie, youâre worth it. You were so unlucky in the first 20 years.
Youâll get better and better in the future.â
These words came from the bottom of her heart. Sherri was especially happy that her best friend had a happy family where all of the members loved her. It was really blissful.
âI also think that he is treating me like a daughter. Heâs afraid that Iâll neglect Jasper. He arranges everything for me every day without anything left undone.â Speaking of Joseph, her face was glowing with happiness.
She suddenly thought of something. âLet me tell you something. Bring the Sprite further away.â
Sherri was confused. âWhy did you tell me to stay away from Sprite?â
âIâm afraid that youâll spit it into my plate. Itâs a little strange.â She guessed that Sherri would definitely react violently. It was safer to move the drink.
Hearing this, Sherri became even more curious. She obediently pushed Sprite away and sat down properly, waiting for the story. âTell me, I want to know how youâre going to shock ine.â
Natalie took a sip of Sprite. âTrevon apologized to me and said that he wanted to pursue me.â
After hearing that, Sherriâs expression could not be more changeful. Her mouth was wide open for a long time, but she could not say a word.
Seeing this, Natalie reminded, âAre you shocked? Iâm telling youâ
Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)
When Sherri came back to her senses, she still couldnât get out of this breaking news. Mr. Wilsonâs apology was already shocking enough. Out of surprise, he said that he wanted to chase Natalie. She collected her thoughts and said, âWait moment. How did you answer back then? Did you keep your unyielding character!â
âYes, yes. Do you think Iâm such an easy girl? How should I put it? It would be a lie to say that Iâm not affected at all when I hear his apology. Iâm purely shocked. But I have to say his apology was not that impactful. Iâm afraid that heâll cause trouble for me in the hospital. If he comes to bother me, I would go crazy. I donât want the hospital to know about our past. This is what Iâm most worried about.â
Sherri did not take it too seriously and started eating the beef stew. âEat it. Natalie, donât be afraid. Let him chase after you He used to turn up his nose at you back then, but now itâs our time to look down on him. Now that you have Joseph as your backing, you have nothing to be afraid of. Letâs see how far he can go. I can beat up the man, but you canât. Anyway, we still have to take revenge.â
Natalie was a little vexed. âNo, isnât this playing hard-to-get? Forget it, Iâll explain it to him tomorrow.â
Sherri felt that explaining it to him was like casting pearls before swine. âYou can try it. I guarantee that you wonât be able to clarify. Since he has decided to pursue you, he definitely wonât give up so quickly. Do you think heâs someone who admits defeat easily?
âI want you to let him pursue you, but ignore him and raise your posture. Firstly, letâs see how far he can go and whether he can persevere. It doesnât mean that youâll get back together with him. You do this for your son. Jasper has to know his father when he grows up. Secondly, if itâs just a whim, then we will be able to see it clearly in time.â
Over the past few days, Sherri had also figured out that if Ruby grew up and asked who her father was, she could not deprive her of the right to know.
For the first time, Natalie felt that Sherri was so sober. She only hoped that bastard would be discharged as soon as possib and not cause her trouble.
Also, Sherri was right that Trevon was not the kind of man who would admit defeat easily. If he was, he would not have to Sapphire City 175 times.
However, no one knew if he was telling the truth.
The past was the past. There was no time machine in this world.
