Chapter 487
Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)
Chapter 487 The next morning.
As the Roberts familyâs son-in-law and his first night at the Roberts family villa, Edward, who knew his manners, woke up early. Rose had to get out of bed as well though she usually liked to sleep in.
The two couples sat in the dining room of the Roberts family at the same time and slowly started their breakfast.
Edward looked out by glancing and could not help but sigh in his heart. He could finally sit inside the house and eat breakfast without being sneaky about it.
At the dining table, Grace was very polite. She conveniently placed some breakfast that she thought was delicious in front of Edwardâs. âTake whatever you like.â
Rose was smart. She was afraid that William would be jealous, so she poured William coffee and grabbed him a hotdog. She kept saying, âWilliam, eat more.â
William nodded in satisfaction. âOkay.â Then, he acted like an elder and said to Edward, âEnjoy. It should taste better than the ones that Rose took out for you.â
At least it was warm on the dining table.
Edward nodded with gratitude and automatically ignored the last sentence that William said. Grace glared at William, who immediately shrugged his shoulders and shut up.
The only thing missing from the dining table was Frank.
After breakfast, the four of them parted ways at the Roberts familyâs door. Edward politely said to Grace before they got into the car, âDad, Mom, Iâll bring Rose home tonight.â
He wanted to say that he probably wasnât going back to stay with the Roberts family. When he met Williamâs gaze, he swallowed his words.
Grace understood and replied calmly, âSure. Be careful on your way.â She pulled William into the car though he still wanted to say something.
After getting into the car, Edward started the car and said to Rose, âDo you want to give your colleagues wedding candy? If you want, Iâll buy some at noon and send it to the hospital for you.â
She had already told her boss that she was married and even asked him to approve her request for vacation due to marriage. If she ran into him, it would be awkward if the boss asked her for wedding candy and she didnât have any for him. After thinking about it, she believed she needed to bring some for a ceremonial feeling. A married womanâs status was not bad and could block any unwanted attention. She rolled her eyes and said, âAlright, then buy some. Thank you so much. Love you.â Edward was very happy to do it for her. âOkay, okay. Iâll buy it and send it to the hospital for you. Do you want me to show up?â
Rose said awkwardly, âHubby, can you please not show up at my work for a while longer?â She really wanted to keep a low profile. As she spoke, she pouted and looked like a drama queen.
Edward nodded helplessly. Since Miss Roberts requested him to be invisible, he would be invisible. Even if he did not appear, he would still be Roseâs husband. This identity would not change.
âOkay, then Iâll send the things to the hospital at noon. Are you coming to get them or is Tom coming to get them?â
Rose stretched and pushed her legs forward. âIâll let Tom come get it. Thank you so much.â
The car arrived at the hospital very quickly. Rose put on a big smile and walked into the outpatient building. The nurses at the side and the people at the reception desk greeted her.
âGood morning, Dr. Roberts. Dr. Roberts, come here.â
It was still early. Rose walked to the reception desk and leaned against it. âWhatâs wrong? Any big news?â
the nurse thought, âArenât you the big news?â
A few people leaned close to Rose and whispered, âI heard that you took so many days off to get married. Is that true?â
It was indeed so. Fortunately, her husband was thoughtful. Otherwise, she would have forgotten about the wedding candy. While smiling and leaning against the reception desk, Rose tapped her finger on the counter and admitted publicly, âThatâs right. Didnât I apply for marriage leave a few days ago?â
After receiving an affirmative answer, the nurse asked in confusion, mainly because it was too sudden. âDr. Roberts, didnât you go on a trip a few days ago?â
How did she get married?
Rose smiled. She did not intend to tell everyone what had happened. She simply wanted everyone to know about her happy feelings. She said in a relaxed tone, âI picked up a husband while traveling, isnât that funny?â
Seeing the blissful smile on Roseâs face, the nurse did not want to find out whether what she said was true. She only partly believed it. After all, Roseâs marriage was real. So the nurse sincerely congratulated her. âCongratulations, Dr. Roberts.â
âThank you. Iâll give you some wedding candy during lunch. Iâm leaving for work. Bye.â
When they were usually free, the receptionists would often chat with Rose and the other two. Looking at Roseâs back, they truly sent her their blessings.
At the same time, there was also an element of envy, because, in everyoneâs impression, Rose was always carefree and relaxed.
At noon, Edward handed two boxes of candy boxes to Tom. When Tom took them, he was still dumbfounded. Not many people knew that Rose and Edward had registered their marriage. âMr. Landor, is this for Miss Roberts?â
Edward placed the box in the trunk of Tomâs car. He clapped his hands and instructed, âYes, send these things to Rose.â
Tom was still puzzled. This was wedding candy. Wasnât Miss Roberts and Mr. Landor not married yet?
Seeing Tomâs puzzled and confused expression, Edward explained to him, âIâve already registered my marriage with Miss Roberts. You can keep your share of this. Thank you for everything.â
With that, Edward left Tom, who didnât know how to react. He got into the car, started the engine, and drove away. He did not have much time to waste. He still had to decorate the new house with Rose tonight. Now, it was time to buy the materials Rose wanted.
Tom stood alone in the parking lot for a while before coming back to his senses. He looked at the two boxes of candy in the trunk and finally realized what was going on. He quickly took a box of wedding candy and placed it in the front passenger seat. He was overjoyed. He was the first person to have Miss Robertsâ wedding candy and the first person to hear the news.
He eagerly sent all the sweets that Edward gave him to Roseâs consultation room. Rose gave a few boxes to the people she was familiar with in different departments. Some of them came to ask for them themselves.
When she went to work in the afternoon, she met some children who often came to visit. Róse also gave them wedding candy. The childrenâs innocent smiles and gratitude made Rose feel even happier.
She quickly finished handing out the wedding candy that Edward had bought. Of course, Rose did not plan to buy more of it. She just wanted to have a sense of doing this thing. She did not plan to offer it to everyone in the hospital.
Although she had the ability to do so, she did not want to.
After work, Edward came to pick her up on time. Ever since Edward started dating Rose, Tom had basically lost his role and would occasionally show up.
The car drove towards the Landor family. On the way, Rose, who was sitting in the car, suddenly thought, âWait, we need to do something else. I think I forgot to buy a gift for going to your house for the first time.â
Edward said, âThereâs no need. Mom said that you donât have to buy anything. Your presence is the best gift.â
It was supposed to be a touching sentence, but Rose laughed out loud after hearing it. She reached out and grabbed Edwardâs cheek. She understood this sentence from a completely different perspective. She looked sympathetic. âHubby,. how difficult was it for you to get married? Mom has lowered her condition to an extremely low point.â
As soon as she finished speaking, Edward smiled. Indeed, his motherâs actions showed that no one wanted him. âSo, thank you for taking me in.â
âDonât worry, Iâll treat you well,â Rose laughed wantonly and happily.
The door of the villa of the Landor family was not closed. It was open as if Edward and Rose did not know how to open the door.
Edward held Roseâs hand and entered the door. As soon as she stepped in, she was knocked back by a sudden force. Edward held Roseâs waist with his big palm to steady herself.
He scolded his impolite sister. âWhat are you doing? Why are you here? Arenât you supposed to be taking a rest at home for giving birth?
Sherri grinned and slapped his brotherâs hand away. She dragged Rose inside the house. âToday is the first day of Roseâs stay in the Landor family as my sister-in-law. As the Landor familyâs... beloved daughter, how can I not come home for it? Iâve decided to stay at home for the rest of my break.
Sister-in-law, do you have any objections?â
How could Rose reject this? She definitely agreed. She had just arrived and this was her first time staying with the Landor family. With Sherri around, she would definitely be much happier. She was obviously fine with it.
Hackett sat on the sofa and was eating peanuts. Beside him, Ruby was working hard to peel peanuts for him. After peeling it, she placed it on a plate for Hackett to eat. Hackett treasured it so much that he fed them to his daughter eventually.
âRose,â Ruby called out sweetly the moment she saw Rose.
Rose was so happy to hear that. She held Sherriâs wrist and walked over. âCome, let me give you a hug.â
Ruby obediently sat on Roseâs lap. Hackett said, âIf you like kids, you make one yourself.â
As Hackett spoke, he shook the small cradle occasionally. In the cradle, Jasper was sleeping soundly.
Roseâs eyes looked at the little handsome guy who was lying in the cradle. He looked very chubby and cute.
As they were talking, Juana came downstairs. In order to welcome her daughter-in-law, she specifically went upstairs to change her clothes. Sherri couldnât stop her even though she tried to.
When Rose saw Juana, she hurriedly called out, âMom.â
The corners of Juanaâs mouth curled up to the sky as she replied loudly, âYes. Sherri, stop minding yourself and take care of your sister-in-law.â
âMother, Rose is going to be a part of our family from now on. Rose, take whatever you like. Otherwise, my mother will definitely think that I wonât let you eat.â
âThis child, you donât even know what youâre talking about. Youâre always talking nonsense.â It was rare for Juana to reprimand Sherri in the gentlest tone. Sherri was not used to it and shuddered.
Was her mother possessed by something? She thought she was too used to her motherâs cold tone that she could take this right now.
She secretly leaned close to Roseâs ear and said, âRose, I think youâre the only one in the family who can deal with my mother. Let me tell you, before you came, my mother wasnât wearing this dress. She was afraid that you would say that she didnât look good, so she went to change into another one.â
âI see...â
Looking at Roseâs surprised expression, Sherri grabbed an apple and started munching on it. She shook her legs and said, âItâs true. This is the first time Iâve seen my mother being so weak. When she argued with me, she was always so mighty, like a level 10 typhoon.â
Hackett turned a deaf ear to his wife complaining about his mother-in-law. He could not participate in such a discussion. He ate with his daughter and invited Edward to join them. âSit down. You are not going to lose your wife. You donât have to start at her like this.â
Edward glanced at Hackett, who was sitting calmly. This guyâs social status in this family seemed to have increased recently. âRose, Iâll go upstairs.â
The underlying meaning of his words was to ask whether Rose wanted to go up or not. However, Sherri was so engrossed in chatting that she did not notice the look her brother gave Rose. She was still talking about her own matters. Rose could only give Edward a look to indicate he should go up by himself first while looking helpless.
After Edward left, Rose touched Rubyâs braid while saying, âSherri, have you gained weight?â

ï¤Chapter 486 My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise ï¤Chapter 227 Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen ï¤Chapter 340 She looked at the waist, the face, and the bottom of Sherri. In the beginning, she didnât notice it because Sherri was wearing a dress, but now that she was sitting together with her, she definitely felt it.
âSigh. I absorbed everything I ate. I really want to cry now that we are talking about this. I got on the scale yesterday I have gained 12 pounds. I really cannot control my weight gain.â
Rose reached out and pinched Sherriâs waist. Then, she pinched her own waist. âYou seem to have to control your appetite. Otherwise, this will get out of control. When you go to work, you wonât even be able to enter the operating room with a facial scan.
At the moment, Sherri could still pass the facial scan. However, if things continued this way, it might be difficult for her to do so.
Sherri said, âActually, I donât want to eat so much either. My mother-in-law has been too good to me. She makes different kinds of soup for me every day. Although the soups were also meant to increase the production of my milk, I couldnât bear to waste them after my mother-in-law stewed them for so long. Itâs mainly because theyâre too delicious.â
Hackett said, âItâs okay, honey. No matter how fat you are, youâre still my wife. Love you.â
Rose suddenly felt goosebumps all over her body after seeing Hackettâs confession of love.
