Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 409

Love depended on fate. At this moment. Grace liked Emma very much.

Emma was gentle but firm. People could tell that she had the final say in everything though she kept

silent. As long as she said something, her son and husband would not refute it.

Grace said, “Mrs. Turner, I like your personality. Do you mind my friending you on WhatsApp?”

Rose looked up suddenly. Grace had never taken the initiative to friend someone else on WhatsApp. It

was difficult for ordinary people to add her to their friend lists.

To be honest, Emma also liked Grace’s aura. Grace was not pretentious and was frank. She said

whatever she wanted to say. As a dominant woman, she looked handsome. “Sure, I quite like your

personality, too.”

Frank picked up the cup and drank all the water. He smiled as he watched Grace and Emma take out

their phones to friend

each other.

Seeing what the two women had done, the men began to take action, too. Then, Joseph friended

Frank, and William friended Daniel.

Out of courtesy, Joseph and Rose also friended each other. Before leaving, Grace handed the list of

gifts to Emma and said, “Please accept these gifts. Accepting gifts is one of the ceremonies of the

wedding.”

Emma had no choice but to take the list of gifts because of Grace’s frankness and sincerity.



How Rose wished that she had taken videos while they were friending each other! They had planned to

attend a meeting for a marriage proposal and engagement, and it turned into a meeting for them to

friend each other. How amazing Grace’s ability was!

After going back to the Sapphire Hotel, Rose was taken by Frank to see the setup of the proposal

venue. William and Grace returned to their room instead of going there.

The presidential suite of the Sapphire Hotel was on the top floor, just like that in the Grand Manor. The

difference was that the top floor of the Sapphire Hotel was a transparent sunroom. Inside was a

greenhouse. This place was a peach garden. It was very comfortable, and people could look down at

the scenery below. However, the people below could not see the people and things inside the

presidential suite clearly even though they looked up.

When Rose arrived at the top floor, she was stunned. “Fuck, how can there be a place like this? Frank,

is this what you get for having worked hard all week? How impressive it is! Ava will be so touched

tomorrow, won’t she?”

Frank stood not far away, reminding her, “Don’t step on it. Stand here and watch”

Just as Rose was about to take a step forward, her collar was grabbed and she was dragged back.

She held her forehead. “So, Frank, why did you ask me to come here? To watch you torture me?

“It’s so beautiful inside, but you don’t allow me to go in. Must I just watch from a long distance without

getting close?” Frank said kindly, “After I’m done tomorrow, you can take pictures and take the setup as

an example. You can sleep inside,

100.”

Rose didn’t know what to say.



“You have only one mission tomorrow. Bring Ava here.” Frank made full use of Rose and made

arrangements for her. “All right, I’ll do it since I’m so important. I’ve seen what I need to see, and I fully

understand you, a man with double standards. I’ll go to bed.”

Rose looked as if she had been hurt. She pounded her chest.

She was slapped on the back of her head. Then, Frank put his arm around Rose’s shoulders and went

to the elevator. When they returned to the suite, William and Grace had already showered and gone to

bed.

Rose had been thinking about how to naturally lure Ava into coming to the hotel without Ava noticing

anything unusual at

all

She walked into the bathroom with doubts. Fifteen minutes later, she lay on the bed and prepared to

send Ava messages. As soon as she unlocked her cell phone, she saw the message from Edward,

(What do you want to eat tonight?]

It was 10 o’clock in the evening now. This message was sent two hours ago when they were talking

about the proposal of marriage. Back then, Rose had turned her phone to silent mode, afraid of

disturbing the serious atmosphere.

After getting off work today, Rose rushed home, brought her suitcase, and came with her parents to

Sapphire City. As soon as she got off the plane and put her suitcase away, she followed Frank to the

meeting place. She became a tool and pretended to be a lady, keeping saying, “Hello, Mr. Turner.

Hello, Mrs. Turner.”

She only said such words the whole night, which almost suffocated her to death.



She picked up her phone and replied truthfully, I’m not in Athana. I’m abroad.]

Edward replied instantly. [Going on a trip?]

Rose sent a dynamic picture of a shaking head, which was cute and funny. [No, my entire family is here

to help my elder brother propose marriage. Don’t tell Sherri about it. The proposal of marriage will be

made tomorrow. Well, it’s a secret. My elder brother wants to give my future sister-in-law a surprise]

Edward replied, Well, I know. Are you coming back tomorrow? Do you want me to pick you up?]

Rose wasn’t sure whether her parents would go back tomorrow. If they didn’t, she would have to go

back alone.

She thought for a while. William and Grace didn’t say that they would go back tomorrow, but she had to

go back to work, for she only took a day off.

Rose lowered her head and replied. It don’t know yet. Mr. Landor, you’re quite professional at running

after a girl.]

Edward laughed. [Because it’s you.]

After reading thus message. Rose felt that the elements of love were circulating in her entire body. She

was so excited that she almost couldn’t help but agree. However, she took a deep breath and exhaled.

She repeated this action five times. Then, she picked up her phone again and replied, [You’re quite

good at chatting. What you said sounds pretty good.]

Edward especially liked Rose’s straightforward personality. [Go to bed early. If you come back alone,

send me a message. I’ll pick you up because I’m chasing after you.]

Rose felt that Edward was a man who seemed to carry a heat pack at all times. It could warm people to

death. With it, one’s feet wouldn’t get cold even in winter. If she was with him, she would always feel



warm even when they were old.

Everything he said could move her. Fortunately, she had a strong heart. [All right, I’ll give you this

chance. Good night.]

Edward replied, [Well, good night. Have a sweet dream.]

Then, Rose sent a message that confused Edward. [Wealth can’t stop me from dreaming of becoming

rich overnight.]

Edward replied, [What do you mean?]

He really did not understand the message. Sometimes, Rose’s words were difficult to understand.

Rose replied, [Dream of getting rich]

After analyzing it, Edward understood it and replied with a smile. [I wish you success.]

On the second night, Rose finally came up with an idea.

Her reason was rather strange. This time, she did not use Frank as an excuse. Instead, she sacrificed

herself and told Ava that she had fallen out of love and had just split with her boyfriend. She came to

Sapphire City alone to divert herself from boredom. Then, she asked whether Ava was free to

accompany her to the top floor of the hotel for a drink.

Ava was scared to death when she saw Rose’s message. “Rose comes to Sapphire City alone, and

she doesn’t want Frank to know it. If something bad happens, there will be a lot of trouble. It is

dangerous for a girl to get drunk at night.”

Although Rose was now in the Sapphire Hotel, people’s minds were unfathomable. Not all rich people

were kind, and not all poor people were bad.



In the car, Ava said to her driver urgently for the first time, “Please hurry up. I have something urgent to

attend to.”

The driver was a little old and mature. He had always focused on safety when driving. This was also

the reason why Daniel chose him as Ava’s driver. He was worried, for Ava kept asking him to speed up.

“Miss, we’re already over the speed limit. Safety first.”

“Sorry, if we were a bit later, something bad might happen to my friend. When there are few cars, you

speed up; and when there are many cars, you slow down. Is that okay?” Ava knew that driving too fast

was dangerous and might harm others and themselves.

“All right. Please sit carefully, Miss.”

On the top floor of the Sapphire Hotel.

Ava had thought that Rose was drinking in the Sunshine Garden. However, when Ava arrived at the top

floor, it was abnormally quiet there.

She could see nobody. Other than the light at the elevator, it was pitch-black in the garden.

When she stepped in curiously, the lights in the glass room were suddenly on. There were numerous

LED lights hanging on the four walls of the room, which were flickering in the dark night.

Over her head was the natural starry sky, and under her feet were countless pink rose petals. The

whole room was filled with a sense of ritual. Ava seemed to have roughly guessed the reason. Her

heart was pounding as she looked at the careful setup inside the room

There were dolls, balloons, and Gemini patterns. Ava searched for her sweetheart with surprise and

nervousness.



There was neither music nor anybody dancing.

She knew that Frank would not make her wait long. She waited patiently for him to appear. After about

two minutes, footsteps came from the door Ava knew that it was Frank, for she could recognize his

footsteps.

She had been missing him so much. In the still of night, she would think of his footsteps, his voice, and

even every movement of his. All these were engraved in her mind. It was difficult not to remember

them.

“Baby Ava.” Ava turned around and looked at the man who was walking in slowly. He was holding a

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

bouquet of red roses. The number of roses was not large, and it looked like 11.

It was Frank. Her Prince Charming had finally arrived. She didn’t wait in vain.

Tears welled up in Ava’s eyes. Holding the lower hem of her clothes tightly with both hands, she smiled

sweetly. She was touched. “Frank. I miss you.”

“I know. I’m coming,” Frank said affectionately.

He had made Ava wait for a long time.

Ava knew that Frank was here to propose marriage today. Her tears flowed down and landed on the

petals at her feet, gathering into a sparkling water droplet. The light gave it magic, making it shine in

the night.

Dressed in a white suit, Frank looked like a prince from a painting. The moment he knelt on one knee,

Daniel, Emma, Joseph, William, Grace, and Rose appeared at the door.

“Baby Ava, will you marry me? Because of his personality, Frank could not say too many sweet

nothings. That he had spent a week preparing all these already showed that he loved Ava in his heart



of hearts.

How could Ava, who was in tears, bear to see Frank kneeling all the time? She reached out to take the

flowers and agreed readily. She held back her tears and replied in a nasal voice, “Ive been waiting for

this moment for a long time.”

Frank stood i with her hand in his. Ava loved him so much that she couldn’t bear to see him spend too

much time on the proposal ceremony. Frank took out a custom-made pink diamond ring. “Baby Ava,

give me your hand.”

Ava obediently held out her hand in front of him. Her vision was blurred. She blinked and squeezed the

tears out of her eyes before she could see the ring in Frank’s hand clearly.

The ring looked like a small and exquisite crown that symbolized a princess. In the middle was a pink

diamond that was dazzlingly brilliant, as if all the surrounding light was inferior to it.

Frank carefully and excitedly slid the ring into Ava’s slender finger.

Looking at the ring being put on, Ava said playfully, “Frank, after you put the ring on my finger, I’ll be

your Little Princess for the rest of your life. You can’t break your promise.”

Frank said firmly. “All right, for the rest of my life.”

Suddenly, many drones appeared in the sky. They glowed blue and kept changing shapes in the sky.

They also formed the following sentence: Baby Ava, I’ll love you forever.

After the ring was put on Ava’s finger, her tears flowed uncontrollably. Frank hugged her affectionately

and tightly. The words that Ava had been waiting for a long time rang in her ears. ‘Baby Ava, I love

you.”



The little girl hugged his firm waist tightly and buried her head in his chest. Applause broke out, and the

first person to applaud was actually Joseph. Then, the parents of both families applauded, too.

Rose looked at Frank and Ava, who were embracing each other. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she

still professionally said to the people in the video, “Did you see that? My brother has succeeded in

proposing marriage.”

Rose was so happy that she said in her heart, “I have a future sister-in-law now. Frank has successfully

proposed. Now, he and Ava just wait to get married.”

Frank did not invite outsiders to watch his proposal ceremony. This was the love between him and Ava.

He did not need everyone’s blessings. Instead, he just needed his family and friends to bear witness to

his proposal.
