Chapter 227

Chapter 227 The colorful and glittering lights shone brightly on the stage, and the music was at the maximum volume. It did no noisy amidst the rowdiness.

Instead, it appeared to be a refreshing change in the environment.

One could listen attentively as the body and mind moved with the rhythm of the music. All the frustrations of the day. longing, entanglements, and emotions were cast away in this place. The bar hail always been a place where many people sought transient joy.

The temporary numbness of unpleasant emotions was, in fact, an illusion. Many people understood, but they chose to indulge in self-deception They were only seeking a brief moment of release and a chance to let go and unwind.

The VIP seats on the second floor attracted the attention of the people on the first floor. Many of them looked up to admire VIPS. Many wished they had a pair of wings and could fly straight to them.

The four women sat in pairs. Not only were they dressed beautifully, but they also possessed enviable looks, figures, and charm.

However, not everyone was allowed to go up to the second floor. The second-generation heirs on the first floor were eager to reach out to them, but alas, they seemed unattainable.

The table was full of fruit wine, non-alcoholic beverages, yogurt, fruits, nuts, and potato chips. The food seemed a little out of place in the bar The area did not seem to belong to a bar. Instead, it looked like a movie theater.

Natalie, dressed in a pair of jeans and a simple shirt, was seated comfortably on the couch. She was supporting her head with one hand. She warned Ava. “You can only drink non-alcoholic beverages or yogurt.”

After much cajoling. Joseph finally allowed Ava to go to the bar. Although she was surrounded by Joseph’s men, she was still delighted that she could come out that night. Tim not going to drink any alcohol. If I drink any wine, Joseph won’t allow me to come out in the future”

The playful Ava was already planning for future nights out. Seeing how disciplined Ava was, Natalie did not say any further.

Sherri had not been to a bar for a long time. She scammed the people on the dance floor on the first floor and asked Ava. “There is only one bar worth going to, and that is Lathern Club”

Rose took a sip of the fruit wine and shrugged. “It Cranky Franky can’t even earn money from his businesses, he should just disappear from the face of the earth.”

Sherri was stunned to hear Frank’s nickname. Although she found the nickname to be very apt for him, it still sounded strange. “Cranky Franky?”

“Rose, can I ask you a question? Are you sure he’s your blood brother?”

Rose said disdainfully. “It can’t be more real than this. I hate to admit this, but he is truly my brother.”

Sherri sighed. “Hey, why do you change so much after you’ve grown up? I remember that we were sitting together in class, you are very lat Look at your figure now”

After Sherri finished speaking, she gestured around Rose’s body to illustrate the significant difference between now and then Rose leaned against the couch lazily and crossed her legs, eating a cherry tomato. “I need to make the class teacher do some work. Otherwise, he’ll be too bored.”

Sherri was speechless, thinking. “How did Rose come out with such strange logic?”

Natalie was very curious as to why Rose despised Frank so much. She was under the impression that elder brothers would usually dote on their younger sisters. Both Ava and Sherri had very doting brothers. Natalie wondered if she had a misconception about how siblings should behave.

She wondered if there was any bad blood between Frank and Rose.

However, it did not seem like there was any grudge between them. Natalie only thought about this for a few seconds. She is not a nosy person by nature. She thought, perhaps, everyone had their way of getting along.

Thinking so, Natalie decided not to probe further.

On the other hand, Ava felt differently. She felt an urge to clarify what she wanted to know “Rose, why do you dislike your brother so much? Are you not on good terms with him?”

Rose leaned against the back of the couch and scoffed. How could they possibly be on good terms? “Do you know why I call hum Cranky Franky? No doubt he is good-looking, but he has a foul mouth. What a pity*

Rose was amused to see the three of them looking shocked. “Let’s not talk about this fellow anymore. We’re here to have fun today, not to get ourselves upset.”

looked around at the table that was full of food, wondering if Rose wanted to party in the bar or if she was having a Adept at reaching other people’s feelings. Natalie could sense that Rose did not want to talk about her brother had many questions in her head. She wanted to ask Rose why she transferred schools and why she left for overseas. it was apparent that Sose did not want to talk about such topics, Sherri kept quiet. She then thought of asking Ava did to lathern Chub eather but decided against it. After all, Rose was Frank’s sister All the questions were spinning around in her head, but Sherri had no answer. With no outlet for release, a nowy person like Sherri teli very suffocated. She was on the verge of depression.

Ava dad isot expo bring her to the bar where she hacked into the computer system the last time She was both the identity of her opponent.

she had to hack mo the bar’s computer system again to force her opponent out.

sitting beside Ava From the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Ava’s scheming gaze and mischievous aily stopped Ava That’s enough Don’t go overboard Otherwise, you’ll blow your cover.

ho was excned earlier, suddenly became listless. Pouring, she grumbled. “Can’t I do it one last time? I really want to know who this person is His computer skills are incredible”

talie was about to answer when her cell phone rang. She took it out of her pocket. It was a message from Trevon. He had sent her a photo of himselt with Jasper Is the photo. Jasper was writing with a pencil Trevon had bought him a sketchbook atabse did isot know what to say when she saw the photo. Finally, she texted. [He’s only one year old. Aren’t you being a little too hasty!]

Trevon replied (He’s too unrestrained. He has to start learning from a young age.1 Natalie would feel her head spinning For a split second, she sympathized with Jasper.

Just as about to put her phone away. Trevon sent her another message [Natalie, where are you?]

quilty Natalie pondered over how to reply to his question. Soon, she sent him an appropriate response [Beauty salon] Trevon did not doubt her and texted. Choose the best product for yourself You don’t have to worry about saving money.]

Okay I’m going to have a mask applied on my face now.]

Trevon did not send any messages after her response.

When she was putting away her phone. Wa pleaded with her in a serious tone. “Natalie, can I try to attack the system one Rose became curious when she heard the word “attack” “Ava, did you hack into someone’s computer system again?” “Yeah, I round an expert to pit my skills against. He’s really good, but he doesn’t like to talk”

Ava did not tell Rose she had hacked into Lithern Club’s computer system. She was afraid that Frank would not play with her if he knew about it.

Although she could not find the expert who installed Lithern Club’s computer system, she figured ok s skills were not too bad Ava hoped she could play with him on a regular basis. Hence, she did not want to blow her cover and kept it a secret from Rose did not probe further and ask whose system Ava hacked into. Since she was giving them a treat, she raised her glass of fruit wine as the hostess. “Come, let’s drink to a toast. From now on, we’ll be known as the Four Beauties.”

Natalie’s hand momentarily froze. She was still holding a glass of fruit juice. Her lips soon curled into a smile, thinking Rose was such a carefree girl.

She was finding joy in every moment and often entertained strange thoughts.

It was no wonder Rose got along so well with Wa. Both of them were equally outspoken and never beat around the bush.

Sherri asked. “May I ask what the Four Beauties mean?

Rose grinned. “All four of us are very beautiful”

Pleased with Rose’s reply. Sherri quickly drank a toast with Rose, saying, “That’s the truth. I love this group. From now on we’re the Four Beauties is a pity we didn’t have a chance to befriend each other when we were young. Now that we’ve met. it’s worth the wait Let’s have another drink!”

Natalie thought, “Both of you should be sworn sisters. We should set up a ritual for that, and the heavens and earth can be your witnesses.”

Ava loved being among friends and was beaming widely. She turned to Natalie “Let’s all drink to a toast. From now on, we’re the best of friends”

Natalie felt like she just fell into a trap, but since they were already on this topic, she did not want to be a wet blanket. Raising

her glass, she drank a toast with the three girls. Rose even insisted on taking a big gulp, showing her sincerity in their friendship.

Sherri gulped down the wine in one go. Ava only drank half the glass.

Fate often played tricks on people. Indeed, both Sherri and Rose had such similar personalities that they must regret not meeting each other earlier.

The four people upstairs were chattering merrily with each other, wearing a smile on their faces. Natalie was more reserved, only giving a faint smile.

The other three girls were laughing heartily. Standing nearby were a group of plainclothes bodyguards This scene was witnessed by the man who had walked into Lithern Club. He took out his phone and snapped four photos of the group.

He then strode to the private room on the second floor.

Soon, the party was disrupted by the man. Glancing at the table, he raised his eyebrow. “Is this a tea party?”

When Natalie saw Frank, she realized her lie to Trevon about being in a beauty salon was about to be exposed.

Rose was half-lying on her side. She folded her arms and looked up. gesturing to Frank. She seemed to be inviting him to join them.

Ava blushed as she looked at the man under the lighting. Dressed in a white t-shirt with a cardigan and a pair of dark gray jeans, he was incredibly handsome.

In Ava’s eyes, he was more dashing than the male leads in the TV drama series Frank only wanted to say hello to the girls and take a peek at what they were doing. He said in a low voice, “I’m not joining you. Go home early after the party. Don’t drink too much” He then instructed the manager standing behind them. “This table is on the house.”

Frank then strode away without stopping. It seemed he only meant to just say hello to them.

After Frank left, Sherri mused, “Rose, your brother is really handsome. Why doesn’t he have a girlfriend?”

Rose did not deny that Frank was good-looking. “Look at his mouth. How can anyone like that poker face? Anyway, I won’t get a boyfriend like him Before Sherri could reply, Ava interjected, “Well, I quite like such a man. I really like this type of man. He’s cold and aloof. It gives off a mysterious feeling”

Ava cupped her face with her hands as she praised Frank. Her gaze was fixed on Frank, who was walking further away. She was reluctant to see him leave.

Sherri and Natalie were stunned.

Both of them looked at each other and said together in a loud voice, “You like Frank?”

With a slightly flushed face, Ava took a deep breath and confidently declared to the others, I’m going to pursue him.”

Startled by Ava’s declaration, Rose instinctively sprayed all the fruit wine she had just drunk, causing the others to quickly dodge out of the way “Sorry. I’m sorry. I’m too shocked.”

Rose quickly took a tissue and cleaned up the mess. Then, she looked across at Ava with her eyes wide. The latter was. wearing a beige, square-

necked dress. Her slightly curly hair was tied up in a high ponytail. Rose felt wistful, thinking that Joseph was not worthy of such a pure and innocent girl.

Ava was wearing a different outfit in the morning. With a new outfit, she exuded a different kind of charm Ava could take on many styles Rose wanted to persuade Ava to give up the idea of pursuing Frank. “Ava, is there anything wrong with your eyesight? Are you musochistic?”

Sherri and Natalie also felt that Frank was not suitable for Ava Ava was playful and bubbly, but Frank was cold and aloof They did not think Ava would be able to handle such a man.

The Turner family treated Ava like a princess. They would never allow her to marry Frank and move so far away from them. Moreover, Ava was only in Athana for a visit. She was going back to Sapphire City soon.

Ava looked very serious. “Yes, I want to pursue hum.”

Natalie could feel her head spinning. She did not expect such a response from Ava. She reminded her. “Ava, you can only stay in Athana for half a month. Now, you’ve less than half a month left. Why don’t you find another man from Sapphire Cay?

Ava was adamant. She was bent on winning Frank’s heart. “Tm sure I’ll succeed after half a month. I can conquer Frank.”

Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)

Chapter 226 My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise Chapter 227 Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen Chapter 340

Natalie was curious to know what made Ava so courageous that she was so determined to win Frank over in half a month.

Excited, Rose laughed out loud. “Ava, if you can win my brother’s heart, I’ll acknowledge you as my sister-in-law immediately.”

Ava was brimming with confidence, making an okay gesture with her hand. “All right. I promise I will win his heart before I return to Sapphire City.”

“Okay. We should make a plan tonight. I’ll tell you all about my brother so you know how to please him.”

Rose started teaching Ava how to pursue Frank. Both Natalie and Sherri did not want to listen anymore.

Sherri looked at Natalie. She wanted to know what was happening. Somehow, the tea party had transformed into a manhunt operation.

Ava and Rose faced each other, discussing their plan eagerly. Sherri leaned close to Natalie and asked, “Aren’t you going to persuade her against it?”

Natalie frowned, looking helpless. “Do you think I can change her mind now?”

Sherri sighed. “Love descends upon you in the blink of an eye.”

Natalie said, “Enough with the literary and cultured act. You don’t measure up.”

Sherri grinned. After all, Natalie was her best friend and knew her best.

However, she also wanted to know if Ava would succeed, but Natalie must not know what she was thinking. That would spell trouble for Sherri
