Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)

Chapter 108

At 10 pm. Edward returned home to find the living room brightly lit, and Juana was busy in the kitchen.

Curious, Edward took off has coat and hung it on a rack before walking into the kitchen. “Mom, what

are you doing?” he asked

Juana replied cheerfully. “I’m making some treats for Ruby. I’m planning to make some powdered milk

cookies. She can have them as snacks when she wakes up tomorrow”

Edward, usually composed, almost couldn’t hold back his surprise. “Who did you say?”

Juana paused her hands, looked up with a smile, and said to her son, “You didn’t know? It’s Natalie’s

twin children, the ones she brought to visit me this afternoon. They are so adorable. I wonder what

children nowadays are eating. They are growing up so beautifully. Anyway, go to bed now. I’ll be done

soon.”

Edward scratched the back of his neck awkwardly and prepared to go upstairs to find his sister. “Morn.

I’ll go to bed first. Go to bed early after you’re done. Don’t stay up too late.”

Edward felt somewhat guilty as he watched his mother enthusiastically work in the kitchen. The siblings

had kept their secret from their mother.

Edward felt Sherri was probably still awake, so he sent her a message at the door, saying, “Open the

door.”

Within a minute, the door opened, and Sherri said, “Edward”

Edward glanced downstairs and sneakily entered the room. “Why didn’t you let me know before

bringing Ruby home! Mom didn’t notice, right?”

Sherri replied with a hint of pride in her tone, “No, she didn’t notice. Your niece is clever. She knows

how to make Mom happy. Besides, Ruby doesn’t look like me. Mom wouldn’t suspect anything.”

Edward seized on a crucial point. “So, do you know who the child’s father is?”

Caught off guard, Sherri panicked for a moment and almost slipped up “How would I know? Ruby

doesn’t look like me, so she must resemble her dad. Who else could it be?”

Well, that logic was flawless, and Edward couldn’t argue with it. After all, the child didn’t look like an

alien.

Edward suddenly made a threat. “You better not be lying to me.”

To cover up her unease, Sherri hurriedly urged her brother, “Oh, come on, go back to your room. Take

a shower and go to sleep. I’m exhausted. And I have to wake up early for work tomorrow.”

After being pushed towards the door, Edward turned around and said, “Tomorrow, I’ll find a professional

nanny for you The housemaids aren’t that skilled”

“Okay, okay, thank you.”

After closing the door, Sherri leaned against it, patting her chest in relief. That was a close call.

If her brother found out that Ruby’s father was Hackett, she would be in big trouble. Their mother would

be ecstatic, though. Sherri couldn’t understand how their mother could be so infatuated with Hackett,

who only had a face that appealed to people of all ages and genders.

The next day. Natalie sneakily went to work while Jasper was still asleep. The little guy had been quite

restless last night, insisting on having Ruby back home. No matter how Natalie tried to appease him,

he couldn’t be calmed down. It was probably because Jasper stayed up too late and cried until he was

exhausted. Now he was peacefully sleeping

The two little ones had never been apart since birth. They are and lived together, using the same brand

of formula and bottles. Except for diapers and clothes, everything else was almost identical.

The adults would develop feelings naturally after spending a long time together, let alone children. It

was natural that Jasper was attached to Ruby.

As Natalie walked downstairs, she received a text message on her phone from Ava. Each word was

filled with excitement. The message said. Sis, are you at work? Dad promised me I don’t have to wait

until summer vacation to come to Athana. I can come during the Memorial Day holiday. Just over a

month left! I’m so happy and excited! Rose said she would come back with us 100.]

Natalie smiled and replied to the message while walking Okay, I’m waiting for you. When you’re here,

I’ll take you around the entire Athana. But remember, you have to study hard too.)

“Oh…” Natalie bumped into something, and when she looked up, she saw a solid chest.

She raised her head, and the cold and stern facial features she hadn’t seen in a long time entered her

line of sight. It only took a few seconds for her to quickly regain her composure. “Sorry, I wasn’t paying

attention.” She was referring to the fact that the bumped into Trevon.

Trevon’s eyes were fixated on her without blinking. She had gained a Hule weight, and her skin had

become even

had been two years since they last saw each other, and her waist appeared even more delicate under

a simple blue shirt. Her little face was still so exquisite

His first instinct was to hug her….

Natalie had no idea what Trevon was thinking. Seeing that he did not respond, she didn’t bother to

continue engaging with him. She lifted her leg and walked forward, preparing to get into her car.

A deep voice came from belund her Tve been looking for you.”

Natalie paused and turned around. “What?” she asked.

Trevon pursed his lips for a moment. “Are you… doing well?” he asked.

Natalie shook her car keys in her hand. Tm doing just fine. Mr. Wilson, you don’t have to concern about

me. Goodbye.”

She didn’t hate Trevon. During that month, he simply didn’t like her, which was understandable since

their marriage had been forced upon them. It was normal not to have feelings for someone in such a

situation. The only thing she couldn’t let go of was the fact that Mia had drugged her, and he knew

about it but didn’t say anything. Instead, he handed the evidence to Mia, treating her like a fool.

As for everything else, whether he had a child with Mia or any rumors surrounding them, it was his own

business and had nothing to do with her.

Sitting in her car, Natalie felt a lingering fear. She hadn’t expected Trevon to be in this neighborhood.

Her uncle had hidden her information well, and there was no way he could have found out about the This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

altered birthdate of Jasper. Plus, Jasper was born in the Turner family’s hospital, making it even less

likely to be leaked.

Still, she wasn’t entirely at ease. Just to be safe, she called Lena and instructed her to be cautious

when taking Jasper downstairs to play, making sure not to let anything slip. After confirming everything

was in order, she drove away.

Coincidentally, or perhaps not, they encountered Trevon.

“Oh, my little darling, slow down. Did you hurt yourself? Let me take a look,” Lena said worriedly as she

saw Jasper excitedly run downstairs and fall

At the same time. Jenny, who had just come downstairs, saw the little one fall and hurried over to

check on him. She inspected every part of Jasper’s body and breathed a sigh of relief when she found

no injuries. “Did it hurt, Jasper?”

Jasper did not cry at all. Instead, he smiled at the two maids and replied, “Not at all.”

“Our little Jasper is so brave. You shouldn’t run so fast now. If you fall, Mommy will be worried when

she comes back,” Lena said.

Jasper obediently nodded and then turned around to play.

As the little one ran too fast, he collided head-on with Trevon, who was leaving. Trevon’s face turned

unpleasant. He did not know why he kept getting bumped into by other people today.

Perhaps it hurt from the collision, as Jasper’s eyes welled up with tears. However, his mother had

taught him that boys shouldn’t easily cry, so he fought back the tears, refusing to let them fall.

His adorable appearance touched Trevon’s heart, and his expression softened slightly.

Jenny and Lena saw that Jasper had bumped into Trevon. They were afraid since Trevon’s

appearance seemed hard to approach, and they were worried he might scold Jasper. So, before he

could get angry, Jenny apologized, “Sir, I’m sorry. We didn’t keep an eye on the child. Please forgive us

for our oversight.”

Trevon’s face grew even more unpleasant. Did he look like someone who would be petty and hold

grudges against a little

child?

Seeing Trevon’s silence, the maids became even more at a loss, thinking he was going to make a

fuss.

Ignoring their thoughts, Trevon was drawn to the teary-eyed little child desperately holding back his

tears. He slowly squatted down and said, “If you want to cry, just cry. Why hold it in?”

Unexpectedly, Jasper still refused to cry. He kept holding it in and even gave the man a stern look. This

made Trevon find it a bit amusing. “Little one, you bumped into me, and you’re still acting like you’re

right. Can’t you apologize?”

Jenny quickly interjected, “Sir, we’re really sorry. He’s still young and doesn’t know many words…”

Trevon automatically filtered out the maid’s words and kept his gaze fixed on the child. He felt there

was something familiar in the child’s eyes as if they resembled someone.

Jum happened to witness this Incredible scene as he entered the neighborhood’s gate. Trevon was

half-squatting on the ground, chatting with a child.

He promptly took out his phone and snapped a photo of the scene, sending it to Terrell with the caption,

(Does this give you a creepy feeling?l

Terrell replied, [Boring. I’m busy.)

Jim disregarded Terrell’s response and shared the photo anyway in the spirit of “sharing is caring.”

As he approached. Jim realized something was amiss. Weren’t these two maids from the Foster

family’s residence? His exceptional memory reminded him that he had seen them when he went to pick

up Natalie. How could they be here?

And who was this little child? He called out, “Mr. Wilson.”

Hearing this, Trevon stood up, tidied his clothes, and rubbed the little child’s head.

Jasper did not like strangers touching his hair. He puffed up his cheeks like a pufferfish and angrily

slapped the man’s broad palm away.

“Daddy Ed,” Jasper said with a low voice, as if feeling wronged.

It startled both Jenny and Lena. Although Trevon was surprised by the child’s assertiveness, he

couldn’t help but smile.

But in a split second, he noticed something was off and was about to inquire further when the two

maids quickly apologized and left with the child in their arms.

Daddy Ed? Trevon’s eyes narrowed, and a complex emotion flickered in their depths.

Jim sensed that Trevon’s behavior was unusual, but he still shared what he knew. “Mr. Wilson, do you

know that little boy who just left?”

Trevon immediately returned to his usual cold demeanor. “How would I know him?”

Jim replied, “Weren’t you just happily talking to him? Why are you smiling if you don’t know him?

“The two who just left are maids from the Foster family’s residence, the ones you asked me to

investigate before.”

Trevon glared at him. “Why didn’t you include the photos of those two maids in the file? Your efficiency

is getting worse.”

Jim found himself being wrongly accused. He didn’t understand why he should include the photos of

the two maids.
