Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 124

There was an uproar in Athana today.

“Safety threats are found in the Wilson Group’s commercial street project”

Just one piece of news caused an uproar. This was a project that everyone wanted to get involved in

two years ago. In the end, it was seized by Mr. Wilson. This news made many people who were forced

to withdraw gloat. They were waiting to watch a good show.

However, who in Athana could have released such a piece of news? Who could have the Wilson Group

offended? This also aroused speculation.

At the same time, the man in Ward 1314 sat on the hospital bed. His phone was on speaker mode, and

he had an unlit cigarette in his mouth. “The bait has been taken.”

On the other end of the line, Frank sneered. “You set the bait. Don’t you think your bait is a bit too

costly?”

Trevon’s lips curled into a meaningful smile. “If I couldn’t bear to part with some money, the Turner

family wouldn’t take

the bait.”

Frank was speechless. “You understand the situation very well. We’ve already received a suspension

notice. The losses aren’t small. If your plan fails, you’ll come to naught

The losses of such a huge project being suspended for a day or two were an immeasurable amount.

Trevon was really crazy.

Then, Frank added, “The news was released by the bodyguard you deliberately stabbed. That person

isn’t afraid of death. It’s pointless to catch him again. I quite like it. Your ex-wife is in Athana. The

Turner family will come sooner or later Just bide your time. Even if you want to make your presence

known with money, don’t do so at the expense of my money,”

On the other end, Frank was already shaking his head. To see the Turner family. Trevon had gone to

such expenses.

The way the bodyguard addressed Natalie made Frank and Trevon suspicious, but their suspicion was

not confirmed. Thus, Trevon wanted to get to the bottom of it.

Trevon would definitely get to the bottom of something once he had a suspicion. This was his

predisposition.

The man was not worried after hanging up the phone. He was calm, and there was a trace of joy on his

face instead. It seemed that he was confident that he could settle the problem. When Jim saw that, he

began to report the situation. “Mr. Wilson, Mia’s father, Michael, has terminal lung cancer. His days are

numbered. He’s currently living on the eighth floor. Mia has been relatively quiet these few years. She

opened a dance training school in Athana. Occasionally, she will be invited as an instructor to some

performances.”

Initially. Trevon wanted Jim to investigate what Mia said and did to Natalie. However, right after Trevon

assigned this task to Jim, Miss Landor gave Trevon a surprise, saving Trevon a lot of time.

Trevon said coldly, “Call Hackett over.”

Jim turned around and went next door to call Hackett. Hackett was still sleeping soundly. He had

played “League of Legends” until the wee hours and was in deep slumber now. “Mr. Blackwell, Mr.

Blackwell, wake up.”

In his daze, Hackett felt that it was very noisy. “You’re so fucking annoying. Stop disturbing me. Let me

sleep for a while.”

Jim was thinking. How could Hackett still sleep when there was trouble? “Mia is going to die.”

Under the blanket, Hackett said gloomily, “What does it have to do with me? Let me know when she

dies.”

Jim really did not want to wake up this willful second-generation heir. It was a tedious job. “Miss Mia

has caused huge trouble. Are you sure you don’t want to go and take a look?”

Hackett sat up immediately. His hair was messy, and he still felt sleepy. Blinded by the dazzling

sunlight, he could not open his eyes He squinted and looked up at Jim. “What’s going on? What did

she do this time?” Hackett thought that Mia had been quiet for the past two years.

“It might be a little serious” Miss Mia might have made a fatal mistake.

When Hackeit heard that it was something serious, Hackett could not be bothered with his image. He

lifted the blanket and got out of bed. He took his phone and looked at it. It was seven o’clock. He felt

like crying. This cousin of his loved to cause trouble for him. A few days ago, he thought that Mia had

behaved herself, and he even said a few more words to her. Now, he fucking wanted to slap Mia.

With dark eye circles on his face, Hackett dragged his slippers into Ward 1314. Jim followed behind

Hackett.

As soon as Hackett walked in, he sat on the sofa and scratched his messy hair. He asked impatiently.

“What did Mia do this:

time!”

Trevor’s face was tense, and his anger was visible to the naked eye. He did not answer Hackett’s

question. As someone who was tactful, Jim explained, “Two years ago, not only did Miss Mia claim her

unborn child was Mr. Wilson’s, but she also flaunted her pregnancy to Mrs. Wilson. Now, Mrs. Wilson

and Miss Landor both think that Mr. Wilson has a wife and child

It’s a huge misunderstanding.”

Jim reckoned that Mr. Wilson was already on Mrs. Wilson’s blacklist.

Hackett’s temples throbbed when he heard that. He recalled that day when he personally went to talk

to Mia. He hoped that she would behave herself and even asked about this matter in particular. What

did Mia say? She said she did not do anything, and he actually believed her. She actually treated him

as a fool.

This was a big misunderstanding. The husband’s lover was pregnant and told the husband’s wife that

she was pregnant with her husband’s child. Fuck. Mia must have watched too many soap operas.

Hackett rubbed the space between his eyebrows and felt a headache coming. “What do you want to

do? They rarely contact our family now. My mother hasn’t seen them for a long time. A few days ago,

Mia came to my ward. She looked a little different Hackert had never been so serious.

Hackett could not bring himself to plead for Mia anymore. Trevon had already let Mia off many times for

the sake of Hackett and his grandfather. Mia had brought this upon herself.

After a moment of silence, Trevon said, “I want her reputation to be ruined and her to leave Athana.”

Hackett was silent for a moment as if he was making a decision. He closed his eyes and said, “Alright, I

have no objections.” He could only persuade his mother.

One hour later, when Natalie came in for her ward rounds, the atmosphere in the room was a little

oppressive. Hackett had a worried look, while Trevon had a cold expression with a hint of anger. Both

of them looked grim

Noticing that Natalie had walked in, the man on the bed withheld his anger, and the look on his face

softened. Im still a little dizzy.” He looked a little pitiful.

Hackett was not in the mood to joke today. With a cold and upset expression, he said. ‘Natalic. I’m fine

today. There’s no need for a checkup. I’m leaving

As soon as he finished talking, he strode toward the door, opened it, and left.

The intern doctor beside Natalie was used to seeing Hackett smile. Hackett did not have much of a

temper and was especially easy to get along with. But now, Hackett’s cold expression was especially

frightening, and the intern doctor did not dare to greet Hackett.

Hackett had already recovered, so Natalie naturally would not stop him from going wherever he

wanted. However, Hackett’s address of her first name gave her a headache. She could not explain it

even if she wanted to.

She could only pretend that she did not hear anything and delude herself. “It’s normal to feel dizzy.

Your condition is more serious than that of Hackett. Don’t shake your head or exercise too much.

These symptoms will disappear in a week or so.”

Trevon nodded slowly. He looked at Natalie with an intense and urgent gaze.

When Natalie glanced at Trevon, their eyes met. She avoided his gaze instantly and turned to leave

without saying another word.

When she reached the door, another doctor asked curiously. “Mrs. Wilson, why did Mr. Blackwell call

you by your first name? Is your husband from a wealthy family?” As expected, Natalie knew that no

matter whether she explained it, people’s imaginations would still run wild.

Natalie only replied calmly, “No.”

The female doctor was still unwilling to give up. “Really? But he’s Mr. Blackwell. Ordinary people

couldn’t possibly have made him call them respectfully. I saw that he respected you very much just

now.”

Natalie did not want to answer that. The more she explained, the worse it would be. When she lied, she

would have to cover it up with another lie. Thus, she only smiled at the doctor.

Seeing that Natalie did not answer, the female doctor pouted in dissatisfaction. She felt that Natalie

was putting on airs, What was so great about her?

There were a lot of trending topics today. As soon as the trending topic in the morning went down,

another went trending in the afternoon.

The entire industry was in an uproar. There was an ambiguous photo of Mia with a certain higher-up.

There were also records of her abortion and remittance of 10 million dollars.

Instantly, the attitudes of the people in the industry changed. They scoffed at Mia and despised her to

the extreme.

Even a gossip lover like Sherri called. “Natalie, have you seen the news!”

Natalie was not very interested. She was not concerned about other people’s private lives, to begin

with. “What news? Which celebrity cheated again and got caught by you?”

Sherri was very excited. Natalie could feel it through the phone. “It’s Mr. Wilson’s dream girl, Mia.

Listen, she’s done for. The entire trending topic is filled with photos of her being kept by a sugar daddy.

I heard that the sugar daddy is a certain higher-up. The child she was carrying belonged to that person.

There’s also a remittance record of 10 million dollars.

Someone checked her overseas account and exposed it. Mia can’t make a comeback now. Even that

higher-up was implicated. I think the sugar daddy’s wife will also settle scores with Mia. How gratifying.”

Natalie frowned slightly. That was ruthless. Then, she said, “She’s an adult. When she did that back

then, she should have thought that this would happen someday. Whatever choice one made, there

would be corresponding problems awaiting. The truth would be out someday. She was merely counting

on luck.”

Sherri could not help but praise her best friend’s calmness. Even this news could not stir Natalie’s

emotions. “Who do you think is punishing that siren?” Sherri was rather curious. She wanted to know

the kind person who did it.

Natalie could not help but laugh at Sherri’s curiosity to investigate the truth. “Would you believe me if I

said it was

Ultraman?”

Sherri laughed. “I would have thought it was Wonder Woman instead.”

The two of them chatted for a few more minutes before hanging up.
