Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 373

Today’s pier was very quiet. The music from the fitness exercises did not echo on the pier, and no

familiar figures were shouting in the space

No one was around leading the people.

As Edward drove, he subconsciously looked at the lively venue in the past. However, the atmosphere

today was different. Everyone was running circles around the docks, not doing fitness exercises

His eyes squinted suspiciously.

There were plenty of goods at the docks. Frank allowed his men to smoke in the office but not outside.

After getting out of the car, Edward wanted to take out a cigarette, but he thought about it and kept it.

In the distance. Tom had already sent Miss Rose back. At this moment. Tom was munching on a piece

of watermelon with his lackey. His lackey glanced at Edward in the distance and asked the person

beside him, “Is it the trend now for the CEO to personally receive the goods?”

“I don’t think so. He might be here to look for Frank. He does nor look like he is here to pick up the

goods”

It wasn’t like Edward was a small businessman. Why would he come to take has goods himself? If his

assistant couldn’t come and pick them up, his subordinate could.

Tom felt Mr. Landor purely wanted to come by himself. Perhaps he was here to look for Miss Rose or to

create a chance encounter. It was just that Miss Rose had returned home, anil lie had no chance to

encounter her.

Tom wondered. “Aren’t they dating? Why did he have to encounter her?” The way the wealthy date

made Tom puzzle.

They were having so much fun. They were romantic enough to go on a date in the countryside and

even to the church. Now, they came to the pier to meet by chance. Perhaps this was the romance

between Miss Rose and Mr. Landor

It was difficult for ordinary people to understand. Tom always said that he wanted to share secrets with

his friends, but he was quite tight-lipped. Besides the few people who followed and protected Rose, no

one else knew Edward and Rose were a *couple.”

Tom was quite proud of this. After all, it was glorious to know the inside story. He didn’t care that the

more he knew, the faster he would be in trouble.

Edward was a meticulous person, to begin with. He could already guess the reason for the sudden

change in the pier’s style. After the goods were unloaded, he left casually. His personality was neither

anxious nor impatient.

No one could tell what he was thinking.

Meanwhile, the siblings were at the Roberts family’s villa

Frank had already showered and was sitting in the living room in his casual clothes, accompanying

Rose as she watched an entertaining variety show.

The lazy Rose did not want to open packages anymore. It was very boring to open packages alone. At

this moment, she was holding a potato chip in her hand and eating it while watching her show. From

time to time, she would laugh. Frank was expressionless. The siblings formed a strong contrast.

“Hahahahaha. This is funny. Just thinking about his twisted face makes me feel the same as he did.

Hahahaha. That must be painful.*

Rose was overjoyed and laughed wantonly.

The empty living room was filled with her laughter. Her laughter was very loud. Even the bodyguards

outside the door were stunned and held in their laughter.

Frank shot her a glance as if he was looking at a fool and continued to look at his phone. Ava should

have woken up already. Why was there no message from her? Did she not know that he had been to

her room, or was she having a fever again?

His mind was filled with questions and speculations.

Frank looked at his phone from time to time. As he waited, he would glance at the show. However, his

eyes were filled with disdain, but he did not turn it off.

Rose was happy, but her brother frowned and pursed his lips. She felt that he was restless and could

not sit still. She probed, “If you want to call Ava, just call her. You look like you are in a dilemma. You

are not like before anymore. Don’t you like to be straightforward?

“How can you be timid after starting to date Ava? Do you want me to help you?”

Rose tilted her head and looked at her brother as if she could help.

“Look at you. You might get wrinkles on your face if you keep opening your mouth like a

hippopotamus,” Frank mocked her for laughing loudly.

Frank threw an orange at his sister. It was extremely fast and hit her forehead. She was so angry that

she stopped watching the television and rushed toward her brother barefoot.

She used both hands and feet to attack Frank’s body. Frank put his phone aside and smiled faintly. He

grabbed her hands with one hand and pressed the palm of the other against her head. “Try moving

your feet. I’ll throw you into the rubbish

bin

“How are you going to make it up for hitting me? Apologize

Rose was very imposing She was angry and kicked him, but Frank dodged to the side.

Soon, the two of them fought. Rose broke free from his grip. It was also because Frank did not use

much strength. Her hands messed up her brother’s hair. Frank pinched Rose’s cheek hard. The

situation lost control for a moment, like two kindergarten children fighting

The door was opened with a click.

William and Grace, who had just returned from outside, saw their daughter pulling their son’s hair as

soon as they entered the house Their son was punching his sister’s face.

It was a loving scene. Anyway, William thought so. Only close siblings would fight like this

The scene was a little unbearable to look at

But it was still acceptable. Their house was livelier like this.

Grace was speechless.

The biased William still helped his daughter. He glared at his son first. ‘Frank, be gentler to your sister.

Let go of her quickly.

Upon hearing this, Frank even pulled Rose’s face harder before letting go. Then, Rose also rumbled

his hair before letting go. She glared at him in disdain. She was furious and quickly messed up Frank’s

hair agam before walking to the sofa opposite and sitting down.

Rubbing her face, which was hurting from her brother’s pinch, she said, “Grace, William did you have

fun on your business. trip?

Frank was about to say something when a special notification alert on his phone beeped. It was a

message from Ava. [Frank, what are you doing?]

He frowned when he saw the message, but the frown soon dissipated. [Has your fever subsided?]

Ava replied. Your medicine is very effective. I’ve already recovered.]

After reading all the words, the corners of Frank’s mouth curled up. [Sleep early tonight.]

Grace was wearing a white suit. Her collarbone-length hair was casually tied behind. Her sleeves were

rolled up, revealing a light blue watch.

Beneath her coat were a pink dress and eight-centimeter high heels. She had an intimidating

temperament as she sat down

beside Rose

She spoke casually, “There’s a gift you like in the suitcase.”

Hearing this, Rose was instantly happy. She stopped rubbing her cheeks and wanted to open the

suitcase. However, there were two suitcases in the living room. Just as she was at a loss, Grace’s faint

voice sounded. “The black one.”

The moment the suitcase was opened, Rose was shocked. It was filled with watches, cosmetics, and

bags. They were all things that girls liked.

Grace was indeed more fashionable and understood what young girls liked nowadays.

Every item was Rose’s favorite. It was indeed what she liked.

William walked in and saw the 29 unopened parcels piled in the corner of the door. One of them had

already been opened and placed aside. She had only removed the transparent plastic and did not take

anything out. He looked at his son and daughter and asked. “Rose, did you buy these?”

“Ahem. I bought that, William. I also bought you a pair of shoes and a pair for my brother.”

Actually, both pairs belonged to her brother. She looked at William’s feet on the spot. They seemed to

be about the same size as her brother’s. He should be able to wear them.

At that time, she was so excited about spending money that she forgot about William. She felt terrible

and unfilial.

William was thrilled that his precious daughter had bought him shoes. “Daddy will help you unbox them,

then.”

Frank couldn’t be bothered to expose her. He lay lazily on the sofa and replied to Ava’s message.

Then, William accompanied his daughter to open the packages. He took a short stool and a pair of

scissors and began to

unbox thein.

Grace pulled the white suitcase beside him and placed it on the coffee table. She reached out and

opened it. In an in kinds of diamonds shone under the light. They were dazzling and blinding

Frank looked at the diamonds that had taken half of the space in the suitcase. Each of them was

wrapped with transparent packaging. Through the transparent packaging, they could still shine as

usual. Those were diamonds. They could glow anywhere. Even in a dark place, they could still shine.

Frank stared at the luggage for a few minutes before looking up at Grace. “Grace, are you preparing to

develop your business in the jewelry industry”

Grace stretched out her slender fingers and took a pink diamond. This color of diamond matched the

nude pink manicure in Grace’s hand. She did not answer her son’s question. This pink diamond is

much better than the one you collected in Athana. You can use this if you want to give Ava a marriage

gift. I’ve already contacted the source for you.”

“Marriage gift!” Frank looked at Grace. He smiled as he lacked the corner of his lips

This morning, when he wanted to get engaged, he was tactfully rejected by Ava’s father. He could not

send them a marriage gift after that.

Grace noticed the problem “Your father said you had abducted the young lady into Deepwater Bay a

few days ago. The Roberts family might have started low but we’re not a family without dignity and

murale We should take responsibility. “Since you like her and have had your hands on her, you should

assure her parents and tell them your feelings for her. Since your little girlfriend likes jewelry. I have a

box of gems with good resources. The goods are all not bad. She can open a jewelry company and

customize a brand”

Rose was stunned. What did the mean? Was Grace going to open a jewelry company to pamper her

daughter-in-law because Ava liked diamonds: No way?

“Grace, didn’t you go on a business trip to look for diamonde

Rose ran behind Grace. She looked at the half box of diamonds and gulped. She was stunned.

Their family seemed to be quite rich.

William sat in the corner of the door and opened the packages seriously. The sound of the scissors

sliding through the transparent tape was especially ear piercing in the quiet environment. He slowly

said. “Grace decided this Grace might be cold, but she is very meticulous. She has already made

plans. Frank, quickly ask your little girlfriend it she likes it”

Grace did not like such a straightforward compliment. It was even in front of his son and daughter She

felt very awkward and said to William without looking at him. Just open the parcels quietly.”

Rose, who had recovered from the shock, continued to run back to unbox her items. She needed time

to digest what she had seen. Staring at half a box of diamonds could easily blind her.

William knew his wife was shy and said, “Alright?”

Then, he leaned closer to his daughter and whispered, “Grace is shy. Why did you buy so much? Do

you still have enough money to spend

“Yes. I used my brother’s card”

Rose also whispered.

“That’s good. Your brother has money. If you don’t have enough money to spend, tell Daddy”

Rose nodded.

Frank was stunned. In the end, he smiled and said to Grace, Tll ask her.”

Grace was not in a hurry. She told her son, daughter, and husband, Tm going to shower. Then, she

changed her shoes and went upstairs in her home slippers.

Frank took out his phone again and sent a message to Baby Ava. He took a photo of a suitcase full of

diamonds. [Do you like

inpl

Ava replied, (Are you opening a jewelry company?]

Ordinary people would have such a reaction. No one would be rich enough to buy half a box of

diamonds to play with. Frank replied, You can put it that way. Do you like it? If you like it, you can open

a shop with them. If you don’t want to open a shop, keep them

Ava was los….

Then, Ava sent Frank a long message. [Frank. I’m not a money-minded person. I like you not because

of your family background, nor because you need to give me a lot of money and a company to be with

you. I’m dating you because of you It has nothing to do with money.l

Immediately after, she sent another message. [If the Roberts family had plans to open a jewelry

company recently, not because of me, I would say it’s pretty good. I don’t know how to manage a shop.

I know about computers. But opening a

jewelry shop seems good. However, I won’t suggest it if it’s because of me. I already have a lot of

jewelry at home. I can’t wear all of them It would be a waste.]

Although her family had a lot of money, it was also earned by her parents and brother. It was not

something she could spend recklessly.

Frank replied. [I’ll listen to you and not open a shop |

William tricked Grace. On the night Frank brought Ava to Deepwater Bay, William exaggerated the

matter to Grace, saying that his son had done something to the little girl and they might have

grandchildren soon.

This prompted Grace to go and find diamond sources these few days. Along the way, she brought back

the best diamonds.

Ava replied. [Frank, why didn’t you wake me up when you came to visit me last night I missed you.]

These words made Frank’s heart skip a beat. I’ll visit you in a few days |

Ava replied, [Go to bed early tonight. You’ve been on a flight for the entire day.)

Frank sent her a message. [Okay, I will j

He no longer replied with one word.
