Chapter 327

In the end, Frank did not allow Ava to carry the metal bucket Instead, he placed the milkshake in the

trunk.

Ava stood at the back of the car and looked at the metal bucket full of milkshakes. She was curious

what Rose’s expression would be when she saw this. Frank’s actions might make Rose not want to

drink milkshakes anymore.

While she was in a daze, her forehead was lightly flicked. A deep voice penetrated her eardrums, “Get

in.”

“Alright.” Ava responded as she eagerly walked to the front passenger seat.

As soon as they got into the car

Frank asked. Do you want to drink it now or later?”

“Let’s drink it at your house. Ava replied. Otherwise, it would be very awkward for Rose to drink alone.

Moreover, she did not know how Rose would drink her the milkshake later. She could not possibly drink

it from the bucket.

“Mm Frank replied faintly.

After helping Ava fasten her seatbelt, he took the initiative to hold her hand tightly.

Ava’s petite face turned red again. She awkwardly touched her slightly red cars with her free hand and

looked shyly at the man driving with one hand. For some reason, she felt that Frank was very

seductive.

The car drove steadily in the direction of Deepwater Bay. The both of them clasped their hands tightly.

It was difficult for the two to part. They were feeling blissful by Ava’s surprise visit.

Ava’s surprise visit was something Frank did not expect. He initially planned to fly to Sapphire City after

he had settled the issue, but the little girl caught him by surprise. She was fast and decisive.

Just like how she confessed to him in front of so many people.

After Rose hung up the call, she changed her clothes. The wind at night was comfortable but slightly

chilly. She casually took a set of sportswear from her wardrobe and put it on. In any case, her brother

had some of her clothes at his home. She did not have to worry about not having any clothes to change

into tomorrow.

Rose took a sling bag and placed it over her left shoulder. It drooped over her like it would fall off the

next moment. Then, she opened the door and went downstairs. She skipped down the stairs while

nibbling on a cheese stick.

In the living room, Grace and William were still discussing something The two of them had different

opinions and looked like they were debating. It was obvious that William was the less domineering one.

Rose threw her bag on her shoulder and pulled the chain with one hand. She stood behind her parents

and tilted her head to look at the documents on the coffee table before saying. “Grace. William, I’m

going to sleep at my brother’s place.”

The two of them turned around and looked at Rose. Grace was calmer and glanced at Rose for a while

before leaning back on the sofa with her legs crossed and holding the documents.

William was a little more anxious than Grace. He asked. “Why are you going to your brother’s place?

Isn’t your brother coming back to sleep at night? Are you staying at Lithern Club?”

Rose had a smile on her face. She deliberately placed her hands on the sofa and leaned closer to them

before whispering. “Brother has to accompany my future sister-in-law.”

These words made the Roberts family and his wife lose their cool. However, Grace did not open her

mouth and waited for William to speak. “Your future sister-in-law? Your brother found a girlfriend?

When did this happen? Why didn’t anyone say anything?

William felt that he had missed out on the million-dollar news. His son had already found a girlfriend,

but he, the patriarch, was unaware of it. This did not go well with the well-informed Roberts family.

William was very depressed. He felt that he had deviated from the information chain.

Rose was unsurprised that her parents were ignorant that Frank was wooing Ava. Her brother was a

solemn man, to begin with How could be announce that he was going after a girl? If she did not know

Ava, she probably would not know either. “Don’t be anxious. There will be a time for you to meet When

the time is right, Frank will bring her over to meet you.” Rose saud casually with a tinge of smugness.

She thought, “You guys don’t know, but I do”

William was very curious about what lus future daughter-in-law looked like. He lowered her voice and

gossiped, “Baby girl, tell Daddy about your sister-in-law.”

Besides the big shot and has identity as the head of the family, William was still a father. It was

common for fathers to be curious about what type of women their sons were going after

Although Grace was not as gossipy as William, her ears were perked up. She narrowed her eyes in

anticipation of what Rose was about to say.

Rose thought momentarily and began to organize her words, “Yes, she has to look beautiful. After all,

Frank is very picky. Anyway, my future Sister-in-law’s family background, JQ, and educational

background are great. You’ll be satisfied with her,

She’s a little young, and there’s a big age gap between her and Frank.”

“You guys don’t mind the age gap, do you?” Rose continued probing.

William waved his hand as if his daughter would not believe him. He said affirmatively. “No, no. As long

as your brother likes her, it’s fine even if she hasn’t graduated, right, Grace?”

After saying that, William even pointed his chin toward his wife, suggesting she should relent too.

Grace fiddled with the document and said calmly, “Our family doesn’t have so many criteria. Her

character comes first

“Dad, I think you’re amazing. How do you know that my future sister-in-law hasn’t graduated?” Rose

pretended to be surprised.

William was speechless. He had made the statement casually.

William regained his senses and asked, “Just how old is the future sister-in-law you’re talking about?”

“I think she’s 22 years old. She’s a graduate student now. Frank’s seven years older than her, Rose

replied after running it through her mind and finally said with certainty.

William muttered, “She’s a little young, don’t you think so. Grace? As long as Frank likes her, it’s fine.”

William tried to persuade Grace. He feared his wife would mind and interfere in his son’s relationship

again.

“Okay, I’ll send you to your brothers, Grace said to Rose. “Okay” meant that she did not object to the

relationship.

William almost leaned forward to kiss his wife when he heard that. He was relieved.

“There’s no need to. You guys go about your business. I’ll get Tom to send me there. Bye bye.

Continue, please continue,” Rose said as she threw her bag on her shoulder and waved her hand.

Rose always had bodyguards by her side. Even Rose’s driver, Tom, was good at fighting skills, so

Grace was not very worried

when Rose went out.

After Rose left, William sighed, “Don’t tell me you wanted to send your daughter to Frank’s to see your

future wife?”

“You’re overthinking it. I’m not as gossipy as you. It’s up to him whether he likes the lady or not,” Grace

said with an attitude.

William continued to probe. “Grace, you haven’t told me why Frank asked you for a defense map the

last time. What was he going to do with it? How did he convince you? Tell me.”

Grace shot William a cold stare and slapped the documents in her hand into his arms. She sipped the

coffee on the table and said, “Your son is so capable. He threatened me.”

William’s eyes widened. After all these years, no matter how anxious his son was, he did not dare to

threaten his mother. He must have liked his mother to the core. Frank was just like him and inherited

William’s adoration for Grace. William was happy about it.

*How did Frank threaten you? When he comes back, I’ll talk to him properly. He has no regard for filial

piety now. I wonder who’s in charge of the family now,” William thought as his face contorted with

concern.

Grace was too embarrassed to expose William’s poor acting skills. Grace recalled the day her son

asked her for a defense map. She said, “On the day before you went to Sapphire City, your son came

to ask me for Athana’s secret defense asked him to give me a reason, but your son asked me to

choose between giving half of the defense map in exchange for a daughter-in-law or letting Rose

inherit the family business in exchange for a son-in-law. How was I to choose?”

Was this a compromise? This was not his wife’s character. Shouldn’t they talk about it a few times first?

William asked, “And then what happened next? Did you give it to him? That’s why he asked you for the

defense map and used it as an excuse to woo his girlfriend from the start. You didn’t hold back

because of the words ‘daughter-in-law?”

“I’m afraid that holding this picture will affect the Roberts family’s procreation, Grace casually said.

William knew Grace inside out after being husband and wife for many years; she was stubborn but soft-

hearted.William smiled and said, “How is that possible; you’re stubborn and saw that it’s rare for your

son to like someone. You did not make things difficult since he asked for it repeatedly. You also have

faith in Frank’s taste. You’re just afraid that the child will be impulsive. Frank is quite sensible and didn’t

ask for the entire map; he only wanted half of it.”

Grace glared at William again and yelped, “Shut up. Are we still going to discuss the matter?”

“Sure, let’s talk. Grace, you go first, William replied. He was in a good mood. His daughter was back,

and now his son had found a girlfriend.

Rose came to Frank’s Deepwater Bay villa but had forgotten the password after touring Sapphire City

for a few days. In addition, she had been staying at the Roberts’ villa previously. She could not

remember the password to his brother’s villa and inputted her bank card pin instead.

She stood at the door and pressed the doorbell. Soon, the door opened. It was Ava in a puerile-looking

sweater. When the door opened, Rose hugged her excitedly.

“Little Princess, why are you here? Why didn’t you send me any messages? Are you here to give me a

surprise? Are you two

finally together?” Rose asked.

From the looks of it, the two of them seemed to be in a different state. Ava was no longer in a bad

state.

Ava graciously walked to Frank’s side and held his hand. She raised it in the air and clasped his hands.

This made Rose excited Rose exclaimed, “Ahhh, oh my god, what did I see? Brother, you’re awesome.

You’re my idol.”

Rose gave Frank a thumbs up from afar and even spun around in excitement.

Rose came back to her senses and realized the problem. She said, “Wait a minute, why did you get

together so quickly? Is there something I don’t know?”

“What’s the accelerator of relationships? Rose thought.

Frank could not be bothered with Rose and said, “Cut the crap. Your the milkshake is over there. Take

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

it yourself.”

Rose was determined to find the truth out that night. There was no hurry to do it then. She casually

threw her bag on the sofa and began to look for her the milkshake. Frank had already squatted down to

insert a straw into Ava’s drink for her. After inserting the straw, he handed the cup to Ava

Ava took the milkshake and stuffed the straw into her mouth. She felt better after taking a sip. She

handed the milkshake to Frank and asked, “Do you want some?”

After a few seconds of silence, Frank finally grabbed her wrist and leaned forward to take a sip. The

residual warmth from the little girl’s mouth lingered on the straw. He was indirectly kissing her. After

sipping the straw, he patted Ava’s head and said, “I’ll go up for a while. Tell the family that you’re safe

first.”

Tve already texted them. When I got off the plane, I sent messages to Mom, Dad, and my brother,” Ava

replied.

“Okay.” Frank said as he smiled and turned to leave.

Ava looked at Frank’s back as he went upstairs. Her heart was pounding, and the milkshake before her

tasted even better. She saw Rose looking for something and asked in confusion. “Rose, what are you

looking for?”

Rose had been looking around the living room but could not find her milkshake. She commented. “I’m

looking for the milkshake. Didn’t I tell Cranky Franky to buy me a cup? Did he not buy me one?”

Before Ava could speak, Rose saw the iron bucket at the door. Coupled with the plastic wrap on top of

it, she could not tell what it was from a distance. Rose asked. “Hey, did my brother buy some wild fish?”

Rose naturally thought that it was fish inside the pail.

Upon hearing this, Ava choked on the milkshake, “Cough, cough, cough. That’s not a fish. It’s… your

milkshake.”

Ava was embarrassed. She could not bear to look at the ginormous bucket of milkshake by the door.

She squinted in awkwardness and pointed at the bucket with one finger.

The next second, Rose screamed, “Frank, what’s wrong with you? What did you buy me?”

Rose thought, “Did Frank misunderstand her? She’s a human, not a pig.”

Her earth-shattering scream echoed through the spacious living room. It was so loud that even Frank,

who was busy on the second floor, heard it. He came out, leaned against the railing with one hand, and

hollered, “Why are you shouting so late at night? Didn’t you say to add this and that?”

Rose placed her hands on her hips. She was so angry that she was speechless. She looked up at

Frank, who did not think he did something wrong, and said, “I just like more toppings. Is there a need

for you to get me a metal bucket? Are you sure you’re fine?”

Frank leaned on the railing calmly and replied, “Do you think you own the milkshake store? Those in

the knowing would know that you wanted to drink a milkshake. Those who don’t know will think you’re

buying toppings instead. Quit screaming like a ghost as if you’re possessed.”

After saying that, Frank turned around and returned to his room.

He left Rose, who was staring blankly at the bucket of milkshake downstairs. Her head throbbed, and

she placed her hands on her hips. Ava’s soft voice came from behind, “Do you want to eat it with a

spoon? This is quite expensive. It was 60 dollars

for that bucket”

Ava’s expression was so cute that it melted Rose’s temper. “Forget it! It was 60 dollars. For the sake of

money, her brother still loved her,” Rose thought.

Rose took a deep breath and exhaled heavily before she said, “Ava, let me give you a suggestion. In

the future, take him to a psychologist to seek treatment for his bad habits. Look at this… this bucket of

milkshake.”

In the end, Rose still went to the kitchen to get a cup, a spoon, and a bowl. She scooped the milkshake

from the bucket. There was also full of toppings. She crossed her legs on the sofa as she prepared to

listen to gossip.
