Chapter 254
Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)
Chapter 254 Early in the morning, the sun was shining brightly, and the air was fragrant and sweet Yet, Natalie felt uncomfortable all over Last night, the man said he would take things step by step. However, the first time took over an hour, and they did it twice last night. If there had been a third time....
Natalie thought. âOh my god, isnât this progression and accumulation? Could mathematics be used like this?
The ringing of the phone at the head of the bed interrupted her thoughts. She turned around and took the phone. The caller was Joseph. She answered the call âJosephâ
Josephâs voice on the phone was still as gentle and refined as ever. âNatalie, come to my room after you wash up. Ava is crying. Iâve been coaxing her for a long time, but sheâs still sad.â
Natalie frowned when she heard this. Ava had been very happy last night. She went to sleep after playing cards. Why was she crying now? Was she rejected by Frank?
The next moment, she immediately replied. âTll be right there.â
After hanging up the phone, her mind was filled with questions. The answers she guessed were more inclined to Frank hurting Ava. She did not care about changing her clothes and was about to go out in her pajamas.
As soon as she got out of bed, she staggered. Her legs were a little weak. She continued to ut by the bed, rubbed the base of her legs, and stood up again.
She rushed to open the door but had to hold the doorknob to steady herself. After a while, she cursed Trevon in her heart.
âWhere are you going? Youâre in such a hurry.â The manâs voice came from the sofa Natalie was in a bad mood now. She turned around and glared at him. She said angrily. âWhat do you think?â
As soon as she finished speaking, she opened the door and left, leaving Trevon guessing alone. He had not provoked her in the morning and had even deliberately let her sleep a little longer. He even woke up early to bring her son out. What was going on?
Natalie came to Josephâs door. Just as she was about to knock, the door opened. She glanced at her brother, who was already in a suit and leather shoes. Joseph, whatâs wrong with Ava?â
Joseph was a little helpless. He sighed and said, âCome in and talk.â
He glanced at the densely packed marks on Natalieâs neck and his gaze darkened. He wanted to say something but could not find an excuse. âAvaâs school is going up against another school in the group arena. The principal called and asked her to go back to the training today. She doesnât want to and is crying now.â
This news was very sudden. She could understand why Ava was sad. The young lady had originally come with a heart full of passion. She still had much of her schedule to complete. She would naturally not be able to accept being suddenly told that she could not continue. However, she would be going against the principalâs will if she did not go.
She could ignore the principalâs wishes given the Turner familyâs strength, but her uncle and the others had always kept a low profile and would not use their status to suppress others. Moreover, Ava was still a student. She would be talked about as being arrogant in school if she did not go. She could not reject the request Natalie originally thought that it was because of Frank, but it seemed like she had misunderstood.
She sighed silently in her heart and thought about what to say. She slowly pushed open the door to Avaâs room and walked in. She closed the door behind her. Outside the door. Joseph rubbed his aching eyes and massaged his temples.
Joseph had almost compromised. He wanted to explain to the principal why Ava could not go. However, he temporarily put aside what was important when he thought about how Ava should learn to make choices and grow.
The current situation was a good opportunity to train. It was time for Ava to make her own choice and learn to think for herself.
Seeing Natalie enter, Ava became emotional again. She said while crying softly, âNatalie.... I-Im going backâ
As soon as she said this, Natalie knew that Ava had already made up her mind even if she could not bear to leave. It seemed that her brother had worried for nothing. âIâve thought about it.â Natalie sat on the bed, put her arm around Avaâs shoulders, and took a tissue to wipe her face.
Then, she said patiently. âItâs fine. Athana isnât far from Sapphire City. You can ask the principal to let you leave after youâre done with the competition.
Iâll also ask for leave to accompany you.â
Ava sniffed. âI know. I just canât bear to. My plans have been disrupted...â
Avaâs words were interrupted by her soft sobbing Natalie took a tissue to wipe her tears again. She patted her shoulder with one hand. âIs it because of Frank? You canât bear to part with him and feel that itâs a pity that your plan to woo him hasnât been carried out?â
Ava nodded. She did not deny it.
Natalie understood and sighed again in her heart. She originally thought that Ava was only whimsically infatuated with Frank. She had thought that it was just a favorable impression and a desire to possess him. Now, it seemed that she really liked him. âAva, if he really likes you, the distance between Sapphire City and Athana wonât stop him from looking for you. If he doesnât like you, he wonât look for you even if youâre in Athana.â
Ava looked at Natalie with red and swollen eyes. âI know, but Iâve only been wooing him for a few days. Will he remember me?â
Natalie continued, âIf he likes you, just one look is enough. Some feelings develop over a long time, while others are love at first sight. As long as he likes you, your height, age, gender, or race will not be a problem. The distance between the two of you will not be a reason for him to reject you either.
You have been wooing him for a few days. Since he has no reaction, you can pull back the intensity of your methods and maybe change the way you are doing things.â
Upon hearing this. Ava widened her red and swollen eyes. âNatalie, you mean you want me to tell him that Iâm going back and will not be wooing him anymore?â
Natalie couldnât help but admire Avaâs intelligence. She always understood what she was saying immediately. âYou can think of it that way. You can explore and see if your pursuits over the past few days have been effective.â
Natalie did not finish the second half of her sentence. She only said the first half. She believed that Ava would understand.
For a moment, Ava and Natalie did not say anything. Natalie did not disturb Ava either. She knew that the little girl was thinking of a way to deal with the situation. However. Ava took a tissue and wiped her tears. Then, she forced a smile. âTil send a message to Frank now. I-If he answers my question, I plan to come back after the competition. B-But if he doesnât answer, I wonât pester him anymore. I wonât woo him anymore.â
Natalieâs eyes turned red. She was not as good as Ava, who had never been in a relationship, at these things. She pinched Avaâs cheek dotingly.
âYou are always so outstandingâ
Ava, who always put her actions before her words, took the phone from the blanket and tapped on Frankâs profile picture. She clicked on the chat interface and neatly typed a few words. âFrank, do you like me? Do you want to be with me?â
Her message was concise and clean If not for the fact that she was sitting beside Ava, it would have been difficult to tell that Ava was nervous. Her hand had obviously been trembling when she was typing the message. Natalie closed her eyes and comforted her. âItâs okay. Letâs give him one last chance and see if he can get our little princess.â
Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)
ï¤Chapter 253 My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise ï¤Chapter 227 Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen ï¤Chapter 340 Ava nodded in agreement and said to Natalie, âItâs 8:50 in the morning. My brotherâs private plane leaves at 2:30 in the afternoon. He still has 5 hours and 40 minutes. If he doesnât reply to my message at 2:10, Tll give up on him. Iâll end my attack in 5 hours and 20 minutes.â
Natalie calculated the time in her mind and said with a faint smile. âSo youâve given him 5 hours and 20 minutes. Are you going to name this the â520 Attackâ?â
Ava said very seriously. âYes, this is my first time wooing someone. I want to give it a nice name. The 520 Attack.â
As time passed, there was radio silence on Frankâs end. For a moment, Natalie wanted to ask Trevon to remind Frank. However, upon further thought, would a lover that was obtained by her reminder dote on Ava? She thought about it and decided not to. It was better to let Frank act spontaneously.
