Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 225

Halfway through breakfast, Sherri’s room door opened.

Everyone seated at the dining table turned to look in that direction.

Ruby ran out of the room, wearing a pretty pink dress. She went straight to Jasper, calling out in a soft

voice, “Jasper”

Jasper was eating the cereal that Trevon had taken for him. He did not like cereal at all. He preferred

food that tasted sweet. Unfortunately, he had to force himself to eat them since his father had brought

them for him.

He ate his breakfast glumly “In”

Seeing this, Natalie stroked Ruby’s braid gently “Ruby, what would you like to eat? Do you want some

cereal?”

Ruby nodded Natalie then carried her onto a chair. She served her a bowl of cereal and fed her a

spoonful

Leaning on his chair. Trevon looked at Ruby. He was rather fond of the adorable girl. “She’s a good girl.

The only problem is she looks like Hackett

Natalie kicked him under the table and shot him an angry look. “Eat your breakfast. Ruby is such a

beautiful girl. If you’re jealous of Hackett, just say so.”

Instead of getting angry. Trevon quipped, “Why don’t you bear me a daughter?”

Natalie vat a loss for words

Ava grinned as she watched both of them bicker. She, too, longed to be in love. “Natalie, I hope you

and Trevon can always be so happy together”

The corners of Trevon’s lips curled into a smile. He was pleased to hear what Ava just said. “Of course,

we’ll always be happy. Where do you want to go this afternoon? I’ll make the necessary arrangements.”

His tone was lighthearted and happy.

Just then, Sherri had already changed into her clothes and strolled out of her room. She looked like she

had not fully woken up. “I heard you bickering from inside the room. You’ve been flirting so much that I

already feel full *

Natalie retorted. “Well then you can go hungry. Otherwise, you may be too stuffed after that”

Sherri started to panic “How can you do this to me? Aren’t we the best of friends? How can you be so

blinded by love that you forget about your friends”

Trevon continued to feed Jasper. When he saw that Jasper had almost finished eating, he said to the

boy. “Get down and go play Take care of Ruby”

Jasper replied offhandedly, “Sure

Sherri looked at Jasper’s reaction and sighed. “Mr. Wilson, I can tell right away that Jasper is your son

without performing at

DNA test”

Jasper was already a cold and distant boy at such a young age. He might grow up to be more

unapproachable and aloof than

Tra

If that happened, no girl would be able to get close to him.

Trevon was silent for a while before he asked, “Am I that cold”

Thinking that Trevon was not that difficult to get along with, Sherri decided to be a little bolder “You’re a

very cold person. Don’t you know that when you don’t speak, there seems to be an almost

impermeable barrier surrounding you?”

Trevon’s expression remained unchanged, treating Sherri’s remarks as compliments. Tm a very

disciplined person. I won’t attract unwanted attention.”

Sherri wondered if Trevon was trying to insinuate something.

Instantly, the atmosphere became clully. Natalie tried to change the subject. She turned to Ava, “Ava,

did you pick Rose up this morning? Why didn’t she come back with you?”

Ava took a tissue to wipe her lips and began to tell them the shocking news. “Natalie, do you know who

I met when I went to pick Rose up this morning?”

Sherri and Natalie asked in unison, “Who is it?”

Trevon had already finished hus breakfast. He sat calmly by the side and scrolled through the news on

his phone. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly No one could make out what he was thinking

Ava’s expression was complex. “My buddy, Frank.*

Sherri’s eyes widened.

Natalie did not know what to say.

Trevon merely smiled. Sherri and Natalie were too distracted by the news of Frank’s appearance at the

airport to notice Tirus sur

Natalie regained her senses first. “Why did Frank pick Rose up? Did she leave with him?”

Before Ava could say anything. Sherri asked, “Are they a couple?”

Ava shook her head. She asked Rose the same question. “Rose said that Buddy is her brother. He is

her blood brother.” She nodded to reiterate her point, thinking both of them would doubt her words.

Sherri thought of Rose’s last name and asked, “Isn’t her last name Wild?”

Ava replied, “Yes. Rose said she gave herself that last name. Her real last name is Roberts.”

Natalie was speechless.

She suddenly realized that Trevon would know something about it. She quickly turned to him. “Are the

siblings not on good

terms?”

There must be a reason for Rose to use Wild as her last name.

Trevon touched his tongue to his lips and stifled a laugh. “They’re bitter enemies.”

Ava became anxious. “Does that mean Rose is in danger? Will they fight

Trevon looked from Ava’s innocent yet nervous expression to Natalie’s warning look. He knew she was

telling him not to keep them in suspense any longer. He stopped teasing them and said. “They only

bicker with each other. They do not fight. one another physically”

Ave heaved a sigh of relief. However, she still had not fully digested the news

Not only Ava but both Sherri and Natalie were also still in shock. It was such a small world. The real

name of Jasper and Ruby’s pediatrician in Sapphire City was actually Rose Roberts.

It was such a coincidence that she was also Frank’s biological sister.

Moreover, Frank was a close friend of Hackett and Trevon. It seemed that fare had intertwined their

paths in a remarkable coincidence. It was indeed an unexpected turn of events.

After breakfast, Trevon tricked Natalie into going into his room. He gave the excuse that she did not

help him to shower the night before

When they entered, Trevon told Natalie to wait in his room first. He then went into Hackett’s room and

pulled him out of bed. Your girlfriend is looking for you. Get up quickly. Go and go parify her.”

Hackett lay motionless on the bed. If not for the fact that he was still breathing. Trevon would have

thought that he was dead. After a while, he muttered. “Don’t disturb me. I want to sleep. I’m so tired.”

Trevon had the urge to throw Hackett out of the room. However, he restrained himself since the latter

had a hold on him.

Natalie waited for a long time, but Trevon did not go into the room. She decided to go out to take a

look. Just then, she saw Trevon about to splash a glass of water onto the bed.

Seeing this, she quickly stopped him. When she saw Hackett sleeping like a log, she took the glass of

water from Trevon’s left hand. “What are you doing?”

Trevon said indifferently, “I want to wake him up

“Who wakes people up this way? He can continue sleeping while you take your shower. He won’t

bother you at all.”

Trevon suddenly leaned close to her car. I’m afraid you will be held back by his presence.”

Natalie’s heart skipped a beat, and her face flushed red. Bracing herself, she grabbed his arm and

pulled him out of the room. She then closed the door so Hackett could continue sleeping.

Both of them went into Trevon’s room, and Trevon used his foot to close the door. He then locked the

door and smiled. “How are you going to help me shower?”

Natalie lowered her head, staring blankly at the shiny tiles on the floor. “Why don’t I help you wipe your

body?”

His height towered over her by more than a whole head, and now, with her head lowered, he appeared

even more superior, looking down at her with a smirk on his lips. He lied, “I haven’t showered for

several days. The doctor said I can’t get wet”

If Jim were presem, he would have blurted out that Trevon’s sleeves were specially customized. They

were waterproof

Natalie knew that things would not be so simple after she came into the room. She was already

prepared for Trevon’s tricks. She clenched her hands into fists and released them. She raised her

head, looking like she was facing a death sentence She urged, Hurry up.”

She then strode into the bathroom. Traveon was amused to see how Natalie was pretending to be

calm. He followed after

her into the bathroom, locking the door.

Natalie was walking in front when she heard the sound of the door being locked. It made her heart race

even faster. The blush on her cheeks, which had not yet faded, deepened. With her back turned to him,

she asked, “Why did you lock the door”

Trevon’s gaze was fixed on her waist, and has eyes were filled with complex emotions. Tm afraid

Hackett will peek at us.”

Natalie was at a loss for words.

He had made his intentions clear. Yet he was scheming enough to push the blame to Hackett

There was plenty of space in the bathroom. He stood still, waiting for her to undress him.

Natalie took a deep breath and walked toward him. She slowly removed the straps of the bandage from

his hands and placed. them on the sink. With her face flushed red, she asked. “Ill go look for the plastic

wrap”

Just as she was about to walk away. Trevon held her in his embrace. He hugged her with one hand,

preventing her from moving “You will help me change if Im wet, am I right? Mrs Wilson, I haven’t

changed in two days.”

His warm breath brushed against her rosy checks, causing her heart to skip a beat. She tugged at his

shirt. Hurry up and wash up The water is ready”

Trevon wanted to take a shower, but Natalie had already filled the bathtub with water. He insisted, “I

want to take a shower”

Natalie objected. If he used the shower, she would inevitably get wet too. “Your hand is injured. You

shouldn’t take a shower. You should use the bathtub. You’re the patient. Listen to the doctor”

Trevon teased. Tll listen to my doctor. Mrs. Wilson”

Natalies mind inexplicably thought of role-playing

Shaking away her thoughts, she tried to breathe normally. She reached out and unbuttoned his shirt,

her fingers accidentally brushing against his skin. She instinctively drew back her fingers before

undoing the remaining buttons. Meanwhile. Trevon continued to stare at a nervous Natalie, who was

forcing herself to be calm. He did not disturb or tease her. He was waiting to see what she would do

next.

Natalie slowly took off his shirt She stopped and looked at his pants. They needed to be removed as

well. She rolled his sleeves to his elbows and said. “Remove the pants yourself. Otherwise, you have to

wash yourself. Take your pick”

The warmth from the hot water soon enveloped both of them, intensifying the already heated

atmosphere. Her cheeks. turned even redder, and the sight of the fair skin of her neck stirred enticing

thoughts in Trevon.

Trevon swallowed hard several times. He smiled but did not say a word. He obediently took off his

pants, wearingonly his

underwear

Natalie unintentionally caught a glimpse of the part that was sticking out. Her face instantly turned red

as she looked at the pair of white underwear. She quickly looked away “Sit inside. Put your hand

outside the bathtub,”

Initially, Natalie thought that he would tease her However, he was unexpectedly compliant and raised

his hand as instructed. He obediently washed himself when she told him to do so.

Half an hour later, his arm still got wet. Seeing that Natalie’s touch was not gentle, he sneered, “You

look like you’re washing

clothes

Natalie rolled her eyes at him. “Other than Jasper. I’ve never showered anyone else to shower. You

should be happy that I’m helping you to shower. Don’t be so picky. If you’re not satisfied, you can get

Mr. Hawk to help you,”

The smile on his lips widened. Tm satisfied, of course. As long as you’re the one showering me, I’m

happy. I always hope you will save all your first times for me”

Natalie knew what he meant by her first time and ignored him. “Get up. Wipe yourself clean and get

out. Ill change your dressing

Trevon stood up in the bathtub. “I need a rinse. Im covered in bubbles.”

“Okay, be careful

Trevon’s mind was too corrupted. Embarrassed, Natalie did not want to stay any longer in the

bathroom. She only felt guilty that he was injured because Joseph wanted to settle scores with him.

Now that his arm was already wet, she decided not to help him shower anymore. ‘Ill go out first.

Shower and come out” Trevon did not stop her. He knew that she was embarrassed. “Your service isn’t

good at all. You didn’t help me clean up” “There’s no such service. Natalie quickly walked out of the

bathroom and closed the door. Leaning against the wall, her breathing started to get heavier. Trevon

had been tempting her too much

She used her hand to fan her face continuously. She had to calm herself down.
