Chapter 247
Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)
Chapter 247 In the afternoon, everyone was ready to leave. When they came, they came in three cars. When they left, they still left in three cars.
However, there was a small change in the arrangements. When they arrived. Jim was the driver. Now that they were leaving, Trevon was driving.
Sitting in the front passenger seat was Natalie, and in the back seats were Jasper and Ava.
The car had already driven a distance away from the dock. Ava was in a tickle fight with Jasper in the backseat. They were having a lot of fun. No one would expect such a childish girl to be pursuing a man so enthusiastically.
Natalie looked at the two playing in the back seat through the rearview mirror and asked curiously, âAva, arenât you pursuing Frank? Why arenât you sitting with Rose?â
Shouldnât she take every chance to be with Frank so as to get closer to him? After all, she didnât get to see Frank often.
Ava stopped playing and kissed Jasperâs cheek loudly. Tll play with you later. I have to talk to your Mom first.â
Then, she said to Natalie, who was in front of her, with a very serious expression, âIâve got it all planned out. I have to know when to advance and when to retreat. If I keep showing myself in front of him, he definitely wouldnât think of me. I have to hang around for a few days and disappear for a few days to make him think of me. Distance makes the heart grow fonder. If he doesnât miss me when Iâm not around, it only means that I havenât attracted him enough yet. Then, Iâd show myself in front of him again.â
Natalie was rendered speechless. It was almost as if she was at war.
Natalie couldnât help but laugh at Avaâs words. âAva, where did you learn this from?â
Ava admitted generously. âMom taught me. She said that I canât be a bootlicker all the time. Otherwise, he wouldnât be able to appreciate me. He would only think that Iâm unimportant. Heâd only think of me when I am gone.â
Natalie thought to herself. âShe is treating Frank both as a hug and as a case study,â
She did not know if it would work or not.
Trevon, who had been silent all this while, smiled faintly in the driverâs seat. He rubbed the tip of his nose with his right index finger. âI think Avaâs method is quite good. I believe you can succeed, Ava.â
When Ava heard Trevonâs encouragement, she leaned forward and reached out to give Trevon a high five. A crisp and loud clap sounded in the enclosed space.
Natalie was speechless. âYou guys are really... Why do I feel like Frank is being placed on the operating table to be studied? You are even discussing the plan to dissect him on the side.â
The scene was like this. Frank, who was lying on the operating table waiting to be dissected, would say. âHurry up.â
Ava would say, âDonât worry. Letâs figure out where to start first.â
Trevon would say, âLetâs start with his brain, I donât think that looks normal.â
Ava would nod. âI also think that this is a great place to start.â
Ava thought about Natalieâs words and found this scene too funny. She was in a good mood and imagined dissecting Frank in her mind After returning to her seat, she gave Jasper a high-five. The boy was quite good at mimicking others. He had just seen his father high-five Ava, and now, he was already learning to give Ava a high-five too.
Trevon spoke in all seriousness and said his true thoughts from the bottom of his heart out loud. âAva is born with such confidence and cuteness. If Frank doesnât like her, heâs blind.â
Natalie sneered. This was the first time Trevon had praised someone like this. âYouâre such a great brother-in-lawâ
Trevon turned his head slightly to look at her, who was sitting in the front passenger seat. With a smile in his eyes, he slowly reached out a hand to hold her small hand tightly. âAre you jealous?â
Natalie glanced at him and couldnât help saying. âAre you crazy? Why would I be jealous? Drive properly. There are four precious lives in the car.
Trevon sat up straight. âGot it, honey.â
It was strange how Natalie found the word âhoneyâ weird at first, but as time passed by, she gradually accepted it.
In Frankâs car, Rose sat in the front passenger seat. She was bored to death and closed her eyes to take a nap.
Frank turned his head to the side and said indifferently, âWhy didnât you ask your friend to sit with you! You look like youâre dying of boredom.â
Rose didnât even open her eyes. She sighed and said with her eyes closed, âItâs all because a certain someone didnât reply to her messages and didnât react at all. How can the little princess not be embarrassed? Do you know what a princess is? She
condescended to come down to the mortal world to pursue a boring man like you. She never gets a reply. Do you think she wouldnât be discouraged?â
Frank pursed his lips and did not say anything. After a long pause, he said, âAccording to what youâre saying, as long as someone wants me. I have to agree immediately. What do you think I am?â
Rose sat up straight immediately and placed her hands on her hips. Her expression clearly said that Frank was helpless as she said. âDo you think youâre somebody? Why donât you put yourself in the auction house and have people bid for you?
âDonât you know how much youâre worth?â
It was rare for Frank to be interested, and he asked with interest, âTell me how much Iâm worth then. I really donât have any idea. Come on. Tell me. If you donât tell me today, you donât ever have to get out of this car.â
Rose sat upright and straightened her back. She explained the follow-up problems in advance, looking as if she was facing death calmly. âYou asked me to say this. If I hit a sore spot, you can refute but you canât hit me because of it. You have to promise me this.â
Frank urged impatiently, âIf you want to say something, say it quickly. Why do you have to warn me in advance?â
Rose thought to herself, âDo you think I want to warn you in advance? Iâm just afraid that youâll lose control and beat me 1.
She composed herself and coughed dryly.
Frank urged again. âWhy are you wasting time? Do you want me to get you a microphone so that you can thank everyone first before telling me?â
âShut up and donât interrupt me.â
Then. Rose cleared her throat and said, âIâll say it then. First of all, youâre quite good-looking. Perhaps this is the only thing that attracted a princess like Ava. Secondly, your family background is also okay. After all, you can afford to raise your wife and children. One can still have some expectations of you for a bright future. However, Ava is definitely not interested in your money. As for those women in Lithern Club, they must want your money more than your looks. You have to know your own limits. The above are your benefits.â
Frank said indifferently. âIs this a paper or the summary of a meeting?â
Rose didnât like Frank interrupting her. âYouâre so annoying. You can speak after Iâm done. Youâre lucky that I can analyze the situation for you. I wouldnât even bother analyzing for others.â
Rose glared at the person in the driverâs seat. âDonât interrupt me again. Your problem is that youâre nothing except for the above two benefits. No matter how I look at you, youâre not pleasing to the eye. Which girl can withstand your ravages with that mouth of yours? Secondly, you clearly can talk, but other than firing insults at others, you wouldnât talk at all. Itâs almost as if you canât talk Who would be willing to live with a mute? Other than pretending to be cool every day, what else can you do?â
It was much easier to talk about his shortcomings than to talk about his benefits. Rose spat out all the words in her heart without panting and was exhausted âDo you have water? Iâm so thirstyâ
No one knew if Frank was listening or not. He did not answer her at all. Instead, he said lightly. âIsnât it great to vent your deepest disdain out loud? If you despise me so much, why are you so shameless to still use my money?â
Rose took a sip of soda water and took a deep breath. âCranky Franky, you canât be like this. Weâre talking about your problems. Itâs a little immoral to make this into a financial issue. Besides, you were the one who asked me to tell you everything. Now that Iâve said it, youâre blaming me.â
Frank ignored her dissatisfaction automatically and changed the topic abruptly, âHave you spent all the money you earned in Sapphire City?â
Rose leaned back heavily against the back of the seat and stretched her legs out. âYou truly know me best. One has to spend money even if one survives by photosynthesis. Is there anything that doesnât cost money now? Why is it so difficult for you to support me for a period of time? Itâs only costing you a little.â
âAre you sure itâs only costing me a little? Are you sure you havenât misunderstood the meaning of âa little?â
Frank couldnât help thinking about the stacks of parcels in the living room of the villa in Deep Water Bay. He suspected that Rose nught have bought the entire online shopping platform.
âYou never go shopping with me, so I can only shop online. If you go shopping with me, I wonât have to shop online.â
Frank refused immediately. âYou should go back to shopping online.â
âSee? Thereâs a reason why youâre single. Just keep being single. You wouldnât even cherish such a good opportunity to practice. After saying that, Rose sighed and continued to shake her head.
It was hard to explain in a few words.
There was a reason why he was still single.

Hearing this, Frank pursed his lips and didnât say anything. He focused on a certain point in front of him and drove steadily towards the city center of Athana.
After a while. Frank said, âIâm not going back to Deep Water Bay tonight. You can stay there alone. If youâre afraid, I can get you a room at Grand Manor.â
Rose pouted. She couldnât bear to look at him. âTake me back to Deep Water Bay. I want to open my parcels.â
Frank turned and threw Rose a disdainful look. Rose did not think much of it and even shrugged.
She was so smug.
