Chapter 337
Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)
Chapter 337 The photo in Williamâs phone was sent to him by his subordinate. Usually, William treated this subordinate well. This subordinate sent the photo to congratulate William. He had no idea that William did not know what his future daughter-in-law looked like.
William cared about his image and how others perceived him. He could only lie to his subordinate and say, âYes. Iâve seen her in person. She looks better in person than in photos. The person who took the photo didnât capture the best features of my future daughter-in-law. Tell him to practice his photography skills more next time.â
This was Williamâs reply to his subordinate. In reality, he had never seen Ava. That mischievous Frank is keeping things under wraps too tightly,â he thought.
Frank strode into the living room with one hand in his pocket and the other holding a bottle of Red Bull. As soon as he entered, he saw Rose playing with her phone seriously.
He had gotten used to this situation. At Deepwater Bay, Rose had been playing with her phone every day.
However, the way his parents looked at him was a little strange, especially William, whose gaze seemed more intense. Graceâs brows were slightly furrowed. It was obvious they were not pleased.
Frank stopped in his tracks, one hand holding a Red Bull, the other pressing onto Roseâs head. Rose forcefully pushed his hand away. She then pressed his hand onto the sofa and asked, âWhatâs the matter?â
William turned his head, preparing to ask about matters related to his future daughter-in-law. Just as he was about to ask Frank about it, Grace retracted her gaze. Her back was now facing Frank. She spoke first, âHave you been planning to start a jewelry company recently Frank tapped on Roseâs head. Then, he walked over to a single sofa and sat with his legs spread apart. He raised his head, finished the Red Bull drink placed it on the table, and said, âNoâ
Rose was still rubbing her aching head. She was glaring at Frank.
Grace squinted and looked at her son for a full minute. Then, she crossed her legs and folded her arms, ready to listen carefully to her sonâs explanation. She said again. You donât plan to start a company, and you donât have the hobby of collecting jewelry Why are you searching for pink diamonds so extensively? Do you know how many people have called me these few days to give me pink diamonds Tell me What are you planning to do?â
Toward the end, Grace got a little angry The Roberts family was a prominent family, but they had never accepted such benefits from others. Such benefits that came knocking on oneâs door had to be repaid sooner or later. There was no such thing as a free lunch. It remained to be seen whether the benefits would be repaid in terms of money, favors, or something else Perhaps one would only know when the time came Grace had never been someone who allowed others to make requests, so she would not accept those diamonds. However, there were always people coming in pairs or groups to visit and gift diamonds, which made her quite annoyed.
Rose suddenly had a realization, as if she had guessed it. However, just as she opened her mouth, Frank glared at her coldly. She immediately shut her mouth. She even mimicked the motion of pulling a zipper, as if sealing her lips shut in response.
âLet me pretend once agam that I donât knowâ Rove thought. She picked up her phone and played with it. However, she paid close attention to the conversation. She listened attentively. She wanted to know how her brother would explain himself.
Frank clasped his hands behind his head, leaned back, and crossed his legs, just like Grace. Then, he replied nonchalantly, âThey are useful.â
Grace was left speechless.
Seeing his wifeâs expression turn displeased, William reminded Frank, âFrank, tell your mom what use those diamonds are to you. If you really need those diamonds, wouldnât it be quicker if your mom and I help you? The more people collaborate on a task, it becomes easier and more effective to accomplish a goal After saying that. William winked at his son.
Frank licked his lips. The taste of Red Bullâs essence was quite strong. âIm working on something,â he said. âRose, you had better keep your mouth shut and do no get involved.â
Rose, who was about to share this huge piece of information with her friends on the Fairy Fortress group chat, muttered and put down her phone again. She sighed. âFine, she thought. âIf my brother wants to surprise us, then let him surprise us. Iâll just assume that Im hearing things.â
The drama queen Rose pretended that she was deaf Grace was smart. In a second, she guessed who this so-called thing was for. âYou collected so many expensive pink diamonds to please your girlfriend,â she said.
It was an athrmative sentence. It was not a question.
Seeing that her mother seemed to have misunderstood something. Rose quickly explained on behalf of Ava to prevent her mother from being biased against Ava in the future. âMom, things are definitely not as youâre thinking,â she said. âThe reason
Frank collects pink diamonds is simply to express his love for Ava. I can assure you that Ava definitely doesnât know about this. Also, I guarantee that Frankâs girlfriend, who is my future sister-in-law and my good friend, is definitely not a girl who is vain or acts like a little princess. Her age and personality are not proportionalâ
After saying that, Rose was still worries Frank she said âSay somethingâ
Grace would.
heve her. She raised her hand in the air and swore âRight, She was getting anxious. âWhat if Mom misunderstands Ava?â she thought âWhy is Frank not anxious all I really want nomous relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law smack him. Does he even care about Frank sand nonchalantly. âYesâ
aining a Rose thought. âI asked you to explain. I didnât ask you to talk nonsense.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him. Frank was speechless. He added, âSheâs not a delicate person that has a habit of seeking comfort and enjoyment.
âShe would cry at most, Frank thought âEverything else is fineâ
In any case, in his opinion. Ava was good.
The usually confident William thought that his son must also have good taste. âAfter all, he has inherited my genes, he thought. âThis taste could not possibly be lackingâ
âAlrightâ William said âJust manage things well on your own Donât try to act too cool all the time, and avoid unnecessary conflicts with women Learn from the more often. You can see me as a role model. Iâve never been involved in any romantic rumorsâ While criticizing. William did not forget to praise himself before Grace Grace was left speechless.
Rose was left speechless as well Rose thought. âYou donât have to say the last sentence Everyone knows your history. It was Mom who put an end to it When you were young, there were always people trying to introduce girls to you, but they were scared off by Momâs powerful presence. Your lack of romantic rumor has got nothing to do with your virtue After being glared at by Grace, William rubbed his nose guiltily and smiled. He no longer talked.
After the two children went upstairs, Grace said worriedly. âYour son no longer has principles. You have got to talk to him seriously when you are free.â
William did not share that viewpoint. He retorted, âGrace, I have to talk about this. I donât think thereâs a problem with our son. Itâs not that he spends all his money to make his girlfriend happy. Itâs all within his means. If you were to mention something you want right now, I could probably arrange for the entire Roberts family to buy it for you. Do you believe that**
Grace crossed one arm over her chest. She then propped the other hand on her arm to pinch her aching eyebrows. She took a deep breath and said.
âPut away your lovestruck mindset. Your son is just like youâ
William said. âIsnât that good? Although Frank is a man of few words, thereâs nothing wrong with doting on his girlfriend. Even though sheâs not his wife yet but a girlfriend, judging by our sonâs current behavior, heâll definitely dote on his wife in the future. Donât you think so? Just like we love each other, our son and our future daughter-in-law will also love each other. Youâre worrying too much. Relax and donât overthink.
âYour son is doing this because he loves the girl to the extreme. He probably wants to give her a surprise. Didnât you notice that he didnât want Rose to reveal it? Look at this photo. Look. I know you want to see it. Now that your son and the others. arenât around, just look at it without worrying. This girl looks very pleasant in this photo, right? Sheâs such a good match for our son.â
William picked up his phone and handed it to Grace. Grace glanced at it from the corner of her eye. She did not say anything. However, the worry on her face disappeared. After a moment of silence, Grace said, âShe looks quite pretty. Did Rose say that sheâs a graduate student?â
William said, âOh yes Thatâs right. Sheâs a top student. We donât have any top students in our family. If Frank marries a graduate student, this will instantly enhance the Roberts familyâs perceived level of culture and education, donât you think?
âLook at this girlâs appearance. Like Frank, she is exceedingly good-looking. Sheâs mideed very compatible with Frank. In the future, our grandchildren will definitely be exceedingly good-looking Bringing them out will attract lots of attention. It is a source of pride and it will contribute Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)

âDonât you think so, Grace?
Grace felt a throbbing in her forehead. She thought, âWhy did I end up marrying this chatterbox? He doesnât talk much when weâre out, but once weâre home, he just goes on and on. He even expects me to respond from time to tune. Donât you think so? Isnât that right? Did you hear me?â
Grace was at a loss for words.
âCan you take a break for a while?â Grace said. âIf youâre thirsty, have some coffee before you continue. Im going to bed.â
William grabbed hold of Graceâs arm and said, âLetâs go together. Iâm tired too. If I hadnât been chatty, how could I have been able to win your affection when I pursued you?â
