Chapter 321
Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)
Chapter 321 At 12:30 in the afternoon, the sun was scorching hot. The dazzling fireball hung high in the sky, emitting heat that made oneâs back burn. The dazzling light forced one to subconsciously lower his head.
The temperature of Earth rose slightly. They could still smell the cement smell of Earth being roasted by the sun. In any case, it was hot.
Frankâs tall figure stood on Avaâs side, blocking most of the heat for her. He raised the bag high above her head with one hand to block the dazzling light.
âIâll send you back to your dormitory, Frank suggested.
âWhat about you? Ava thought. âWas he going back? Back to the hotel?â
Meeting her expectant gaze, a certain part of Frankâs heart softened. âTll wait in the car. Iâll accompany you to class in the afternoonâ
In just two seconds, Ava followed her heart. She knew that Frank could not stay in Sapphire City forever. He might go back the day after tomorrow or tomorrow. She wanted to cherish their hard-earned time together and did not want to waste it.
âIâm going to sleep in your car. Her eyes were firm, not taking no for an answer.
âAlright.â Frank lowered his head and looked at her for a few seconds before giving in.
He was still holding his bag to shield her from the sun. Soon, the two of them arrived at the side of a Porsche car in the parking lot. He opened the door of the driverâs seat and the back seat. He started the car and turned on the air conditioner. He spread a spare shirt on the back seat and reminded Ava, who had just gotten in, âDonât close the door yet. Let the heat. dissipate first.â
âOh.â This was the first time she had taken Frankâs car since the last time they went to the island. Previously, Rose was there, but now there were only the two of them.
The temperature dissipated for about five minutes before Frank closed the car door and rolled up the window. Instantly, the tightly sealed car darkened, and not even a trace of scorching light could penetrate.
Frank, who was sitting in the driverâs seat, turned sideways and looked at Ava, who was in the backseat. âSleep for a while.â
Ava was a little sleepy, but she wanted to sit in the front passenger seat and not so far away from him. âI want to sit in the front.
She had always mentioned whatever she wanted. She didnât want to pretend and say that it didnât matter or she didnât want it. It was against her conscience.
Frank glanced at the front passenger seat. It was not suitable for sleeping. He opened the back seat because he thought that there was more space for her to lie down Since she liked the passenger seat, he could only arrange it. Frank directly put the passenger seat down and adjusted it to a comfortable size.
Without another word, he pushed the door open and got out of the car again. He opened the backseat door and sent Ava to the front passenger seat while blocking the sun. After she got in, he gently closed the door.
He walked around the front of the car and sat in the driverâs seat again. He leaned over and took a light green blanket from the back seat and placed it on Avaâs knees.
âCover it up and lie down to sleep for a while.â
Ava thought that if she slept, he would be bored alone. She lay on the chair and tilted her head to ask, âWhat about you?â
âIâll sleep with you for a while. Iâll sleep in the driverâs seat.â He originally wanted to say that he would sleep with her, but he was afraid of scaring her, so he added this sentence at the end.
The enclosed space was filled with ambiguous elements. Avaâs attention was always attracted by the man beside her. Her closed eyes would open from time to time as if he would disappear if she didnât look at him.
Frank closed his eyes to rest. The chair was put down at the same height. His hands were crossed in front of his chest, and his handsome face slowly relaxed. His brows relaxed, and his handsome face was like a fog. She could never guess what he would do next. It was mysterious and attractive.
She looked at the boy she liked lying so close to her. Although there was some distance between them, they were breathing the same air. The deep affection that was buried in her chest instantly blurted out. She did not want to look away, nor could she bear to look away.
âIâm not sleepy.â Frank was thoughtful. He didnât open his eyes to expose Ava, who was staring at him the whole time. Instead, he closed his eyes and said.
Upon hearing this, Ava lay back on the chair. Her head was still tilted, and her voice was soft. Tm sleepy. Have a sweet dream.â
Avaâs sleep quality was very good. At first, Frank was by his side, so she was happy and couldnât fall asleep. Her thoughts ran wild, and she fell asleep thinking about it. After a while, a balanced breathing sound came from the car Frank opened his eyes the moment she fell asleep is pitch-black eyes were as deep as the sea. He turned sideways in the direction of Ava Her beautiful sleeping face was like a sleeping beauty. She was very quiet, obedient, and cute.
There was not a trace of worry on her face. He could not help but reach out his well-defined fingers and carefully push a strand of hair on her forehead to the side. He retracted his hand and adjusted the temperature of the air conditioner to the most comfortable degree He quietly lay down and watched her sleep. Time passed peacefully, and the frozen lake was finally melted by the warm sun. His phone rang at an inopportune time. He hung up as quickly as he could. The call was from the manager of Lithern Club. He muted it, but the call was still assiduously coming in. Frank guessed it was something important.
The manager couldnât have developed the courage to disturb him like this. He did not get out of the car. Instead, he pressed the answer button and lowered the volume of the voice beside him. He placed the phone beside his ear and controlled his emotions impatiently. He lowered his voice and said, âSpeak.â
The manager could clearly feel that his boss was in a bad mood, but he had no choice but to disturb him. âMr. Roberts, something happened at Lithern Club. Yesterday, a customer brought contraband to our place and was unconscious. After a while, the police arrived and took him away.
However, when he woke up, he insisted that someone from our place sold it to him. The police requested to summon you for investigation.â
The last few words were said with all his might by the manager. Frank had only left for a few days, but something had happened. As the manager, he had reached the end of his career. Before Frank left. Frank had repeatedly instructed him to pay attention to the problem in this aspect. In the end, such a problem happened.
The person who was captured had just pushed the blame onto Lathern Club in the morning. This forced Frank to hurry back. After all, he was the boss. He could not let William and the others replace him.
The manager was feeling uneasy. He thought to himself that it was so awful and he had implicated his boss. However. unexpectedly, Frank did not lose his temper. He even said in a low voice, âOkay, wait for me.â
After hanging up the phone, Frank stared at Avaâs face, unwilling to leave. He thought to himself. Tm afraid that I cant accompany you anymoreâ
An hour and a half later. Ava slowly woke up. She opened her sleepy eyes and said in a sleepy voice, âYouâre awake?â
âYes, I just woke up. Frank lied. He watched her for as long as she slept. He only looked away when she moved and pretended to have just woken up.
Ava pulled off the blanket. Her body was lazy and she had no strength at all. She had no choice but to get up since she had a professorâs class in the afternoon. She crossed her hands in the air and moved her waist left and right. After doing a few rounds, she finally woke up a little.
Frankâs phone rang again. This time, it was William. There was no urgency in his voice as if it was a normal concern. âAre you back?â
Frank glanced at Ava and said calmly, âNoâ
William did not ask Frank if the matter was settled. He only said simply. âHurry up and come back to settle the matter. If this matter drags on, itâs easy to cause big trouble.â
âYes, I know.â
When his son did things, William was relieved and would not interfere much. He didnât say much and hung up after saying a few simple words.
Ava vaguely felt that something was wrong with Frank. Her expression became much more serious. âWhatâs wrong?â
This time, she didnât call him Frank or Mr. Roberts.
âItâs fine. Iâll accompany you to class. Letâs go.â
Before Ava could say anything else, Frank had already gotten out of the driverâs seat and opened the door of her passenger seat. There was no joy or worry on his face.
The two of them walked side by side, but Ava felt that something was changing. Ava couldnât tell what it was, but Frankâs aura was different. It seemed like he was suppressing some emotions.
For this class, Frank accompanied Ava seriously. It was usually 45 minutes. It was like a world. The moment the bell rang. Frankâs eyes were dark and a complicated emotion flashed across them.
He picked up Avaâs bag and walked out of the classroom. The professor watched the two of them leave the classroom one after another and muttered to himself, âItâs good to be young. Theyâre a good match.
When they arrived at the parking lot, Frank still didnât tell Ava that he was leaving. The atmosphere had obviously changed,
and Ava was uneasy.
When the car arrived at Turner Manor, Frank took a deep breath and controlled his emotions. He opened the passenger seat and Ava got out of the car. He helped her adjust the brim of her hat and said sadly, âBaby Ava.â
Everyone called her Little Princess or Ava. No one called her Baby Ava. He was the first.
She looked up at him with a puzzled expression, her hands clenched nervously into fists. âYes?â
Frank, who had always been straightforward, could not find any words to say to this innocent and harmless face. He took a deep breath and smiled.
Ill return to Aihana later.â
Ava replied to Frank with silence. There was a long silence. The wind around her stopped. Tears slowly blurred her vision and ran down her face disappointingly. She did not sob or make a sound. It was silent. She did not want to cry. She could not control it.
Frank did not say anything. As he watched tears fall from her exquisite face, his chest felt suffocated. He raised his hand and slowly wiped away her tears to stop those crystal-clear pearls from stringing together. âIâll come back to fight for points after Iâm done.â
Ava had only added 7 points to him today. It was not easy for him to reach 70 points. He was still far from 99 points. He could not lose points.
Seeing that Ava didnât answer and looked very sad, he knew that she still liked him in her heart, but he didnât expose her. âDo you want to deduct my points?â
She shook her head pitifully. She could no longer suppress the urge to hug him. She raised her fair arms and tiptoed at the same time. She wrapped her arms around Frankâs neck and buried her head in his neck. The wetness on Frankâs shoulders made his heart ache Silently comforting her, he wrapped his arms around her waist and bent down slightly. He rubbed the back of her head with one hand. The bodyguards beside him turned their backs to him, not daring to look over.
A muffled voice came from his neck. âI donât want 99 steps anymore.â
The expected surprise was also a sudden surprise. He thought that Ava would have to persist for a long time, so he laughed. âWe still have to take 99 steps. The score will continue. My Little Princessâs plan canât be messed up, and you canât give up halfway, okay?â
Ava hugged him tightly like a child who could not bear to part with him. She nodded at his neck and said. âYesâ
She did not ask when he would be back. Although she could not bear to part with him, Frank had his own career and could not be a fatuous ruler forever. She knew this and knew her limits.
Suddenly, she slowly let go of Frankâs neck and moved back. Her hand was still hanging loosely by his neck. Her tear-stained face met Frankâs eyes.
After looking at him for a second, she tiptoed and kissed Frankâs cheek.
It was Avaâs first time taking the initiative to kiss a boy. Her ears instantly turned red, and her face was also red. She was very cute, and the warmth still lingered on Frankâs face. He stood motionless with a smile on his lips.
Ava quickly retreated and said arrogantly. âTve already stamped you. Even if you go to Athana, you are still mine. You have to be virtuous.
Frank was the one who said this in class. Ava remembered it.
âEven if you donât stamp me, Iâll be virtuousâ He had been virtuous and had never crossed the line.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ava received a satisfactory answer and threw herself into Frankâs firm embrace. She let go of his neck and hugged his waist rightly. Frank hugged her as if she was a treasure and pressed her into his arms. His hand comforted the back of Avaâs head. âWait for me to bring you to Athana.â
âYeah No one urged them. The two of them hugged each other for a long time. There was a time limit on Frank, so he did not dare to stay any longer. The longer he stayed, the more reluctant he became. He placed his hands on Avaâs shoulders and leaned down to kiss her forehead. âIâll send you in Then, he rubbed her soft and silky hair. She nodded and knew that this parting would take a long time.
The car drove into the manor. Time passed minute by minute. Ava held Frankâs right hand and interlocked their fingers. However, the distance today was very short. It did not take long for them to reach the courtyard.
Neither of them got out of the car. Frank took a red box out of the car. It was rectangular and opened.
A shiny golden bracelet came into view. Originally, Ava was depressed, but her eyes lit up. It wasnât because she was materialistic. Ava could have anything she wanted, but this bracelet was taken out by Frank Frank slowly took out the bracelet. He held the bracelet in one hand and raised Avaâs fair arm with the other. Her skin was very fair, so fair that it reflected light. It was easy to leave a mark with a light touch. This is a Gemini braceletâ
He carefully lowered his head and helped her put it on. After a while, the bracelet glowed around her wrist.
It turned out that he still remembered that she time the two of them had met. She went ×××× k Gemini. When she told him thi Rose airport Gemini, it the second A simple bracelet wrapped around her like a rope Frank looked at the light blue bracelet on Avas hand with satisfaction. It was not in vain that he had spent so much effort to find at It was indeed very beautiful Go up Iâll come over after Iâm doneâ
Frankâs heart ached as he raised his hand to stroke her hair again. He was also very reluctant to part with her and stared at her for a long time Ava mustered up the courage to kiss Frankâs face again. âKiss goodbyeâ
She smiled and reassured Frank Her initiative made him lose control. How was he going to make it because she still had to study at university for a few years)
Ava reluctantly opened the door and got out of the car. She looked back three times with every step. When Frank opened the window, they were really like a couple who was unwilling to leave each other When he could no longer see Ava, Frank started the car and left. The moment she got out of the car, the air in the car became extremely cold. The temperature dropped to the freezing point, enough to freeze the entire car Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)
