Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 420

At the dining table, the atmosphere was unnormally quiet. Grace was waiting for Rose to speak, and

William was also waiting for Rose to speak.

There must be a reason for this abnormality.

Rose looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated. She lowered her head and glanced at

Grace, who was stirring the spoon to eat swift grain. Then, she looked at William, who was eating

oatmeal with his head lowered. The egg in her hand had been peeled beyond recognition.

The skin was stuck to the shell, and a large piece was peeled off. It was bumpy.

Rose couldn’t last more than a few minutes in such an atmosphere. It could suffocate her to death, so

be it. The sooner she said, the sooner she would be relieved. She took a deep breath and exhaled

repeatedly to adjust her emotions.

Grace had been paying attention to her daughter’s movements from the corner of her eye. Naturally,

she saw all these small actions. She stopped stirring the spoon and crossed her hands on the table.

She looked up at her daughter, who was making psychological preparations. “Say whatever you want.”

As soon as she said this, the courage Rose had just mustered suddenly disappeared like a deflated

ball. Grace raised her hand. to look at her watch. She reminded Rose again, “Time is limited.”

As expected, Rose mustered her courage again. She exhaled and said with her eyes closed, “Grace,

William, I’m in at relationship.”

As soon as she finished speaking, there was no sound in the entire dining room, nor was there the

questioning and surprise that Rose expected. It was as if they had expected it.



Rose opened one eye and squinted at her parents. She saw the two of them lowering their heads to

eat again. This time, she opened her eyes.

Instead of opening her eyes, her eyes widened in confusion and curiosity. “Did you already know?”

Could it be that her brother had already told them, but her brother had not told her?

William wanted to say he knew, but Grace’s voice sounded before his. There was no surprise in her

voice. “I didn’t know, but I do now.”

“Then why isn’t she as surprised as I expected? Could it be that her endurance is too strong? I’m in a

relationship, okay?” Rose thought to herself.

Grace finished her breakfast and gently put it down. She wiped her lips and explained why she was not

puzzled or surprised. “Rose, I said I would not interfere with your relationship again. I mean what I say.

As long as you’re happy and feel that it’s suitable, it’s fine. Only you know if it is good or not. Just like

your brother. In the eyes of outsiders, Ava and Frank are very different in age. But only your brother

and Ava know they love each other deeply and are very suitable for each other. Then you’re the same.

I can’t feel whether you’re happy in this relationship.”

This was the first time Grace had talked to her about relationships after that incident. She even used

her brother as an example. Rose was very touched. She no longer cared about Grace’s promise of not

interfering. Now, she also wanted her mother to participate so that her mother would not always

remember the past.

William also thought that her daughter’s sudden confession was because she was afraid of what had

happened before, so he replied in a very understanding tone, “Yes, your mother is right. Me and your

mom won’t interfere in your relationships. If you think the other party is good, be with him. If you don’t

think that he’s good or if he bullies you, we’re your strongest support. Me and your mom build this

empire for you and your brother, right?”



Her parents’ carefulness in her relationship made Rose feel very guilty. Because she was insensible,

her parents never touched her bottom line and put her first. The tears in her eyes flickered and blurred

the egg in her hand.

Seeing that her daughter was about to cry, Grace felt upset. “Hurry up and go to work after you’re done

eating. We only have one request. Make sure everything about you and your brother is fine.”

This was worth it. The couple worked so hard because of their children. Every time they were tired and

wanted to lie down, they would think they couldn’t fall because their children didn’t have a backing. For

so many years, the children had been the motivation in their hearts.

Rose raised her hand and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand. She

smiled and said to her parents, who had been looking at her, “But I want you to participate. I want to tell

you that I’m in a relationship, and I also want to tell you who the other party is. I like the principle of

honesty in our family. Mom, isn’t honesty the principle of your relationship with Dad? I quite like this

principle. I plan to report my happiness and unhappiness to you in the future. Can I?” Hearing this, the

couple was stunned. They never expected their daughter to say this. They had always been afraid of

crossing the bottom line of Rose. Even if they sent bodyguards, they didn’t allow them to report the

situation of Rose. But today, this girl said she wanted to be honest and share everything with them.

They were touched.

15:12

They must be touched. This meant that Rose had let it go. She wanted to share it with her parents

without any burden. The first person to lose control was William. A teardrop was stuck in the fine lines

at the corner of his eye. “Okay, I’m willing to listen. As long as you want to tell me, Rose, I’d like to hear.

Grace, right?”



Tears welled up in Grace’s eyes. She closed her eyes and pursed her lips as if thinking about

something. “Rose, you don’t have to force yourself to do anything in this family. You and your brother

can fall in love freely. If you need your father and me, just let us know. We can take care of you. I…”

Rose interrupted Grace for the first time. “Mom, but I’m very envious of your relationship with Dad. I

want to share it with you. If I encounter a bottleneck in my relationship, won’t you be my free analyst?”

How could Grace not get it when Rose said that? A crack finally appeared on her cold face. “Then tell

me what kind of boy he is. There’s still 15 minutes.”

Grace didn’t say that Frank had already told them everything about Edward. Since Rose wanted to say,

they would give her a chance.

Rose took a look at the time on her wristwatch. It was a good thing that she woke up so early. She

began to give a long speech. William took the unsightly egg from her hand and handed her a smooth

and translucent one. And he ate the deformed egg.

He peeled half of it and handed it to Grace, and Grace took it. She split it with William. It was an egg

peeled by their daughter. It was very yummy.

The couple silently ate the egg Rose peeled.

Looking at this scene, Rose smiled naturally. She held her cheek and said, “He’s the young gentleman

of the Landor family in Athana. Yes, the Landor family. And his name is Edward. Not only is he

handsome, but he’s also refined. Of course, he’s

well. not as handsome as William. He’s quite good to me now and takes good care of me. He can read

people’s thoughts very Whatever I’m too embarrassed to say or don’t want to say, he can help me

decide in the next second or change the topic. He’s very considerate.”



Frank had already investigated Edward’s personality thoroughly. He had also told William and Grace

about his personality, relationship history, and methods of doing things. At this moment, they listened

carefully as if it was their first time to hear that. They were very focused, not because the other party

was Edward, but because it was the first time their daughter had shared things with them.

This was the rarest.

Grace said, “It’s only good if you think it’s good. But according to what you said, he’s not bad. You can

observe the other aspects of his.”

William added, “Yes, Grace’s right. You’ll only find out if you’re suitable when you interact more. Rose,

don’t be anxious because of your age. Even if you don’t get married in this lifetime, our family can still

support you.”

Rose was afraid she couldn’t hold back her tears, so she immediately smiled and made an OK gesture.

After explaining to her parents, Rose felt light all over her body, even her feet. Every cell of hers was

jumping around. This feeling was so good. No wonder William and Grace had always upheld the

principle of honesty to maintain their love. It was not bad. She had to use this principle in the future.

Edward’s car was parked at the entrance of the Roberts family’s villa.

In the car, Rose happily got into the car, quickly fastened her seatbelt, and said to Edward, who was

sitting in the driver’s seat, “You don’t have to open the passenger door for me in the future. I can open it

myself. You can help me when I can’t in the future.”

Rose was too straightforward. She was too anxious when she saw boyfriends open the door for their

girlfriends. They could have opened it themselves. What was the point of helping? Wasn’t it better to

save some time and rush to work?



Edward smiled. “Sure. If you want anything in the future, or if you need my help, just tell me.”

Rose crossed her legs and snapped her fingers. It was as if there was a Grace inside her. “Okay, this is

the right way to do it. Edward, let’s be honest with each other about everything in the future. For

example, you must tell me in advance if you don’t like me anymore. Don’t lay the groundwork or hide it

from me or whatever. I’m not that fragile.”

Edward was speechless. Why did the topic change to breaking up again? Weren’t they talking about

how to get along in the future?

“Rose, I’ve never thought of breaking up. As long as you don’t break up with me, I won’t break up with

you. So, can you not mention breaking up in the future?”

Edward’s expression became a little more solemn, and he frowned.

Rose didn’t want to talk about breaking up, nor did she mean it. She glanced at Edward, whose

expression had changed slightly, then hurriedly explained, “No, that’s not what I meant. I’m just talking

about how we’ll get along in the future. I only confessed to my parents about our relationship this

morning, so I didn’t mean to break up just now.”

After saying that, Rose nodded affirmatively, afraid that Edward would think she was a scumbag girl.

The car was still moving steadily, but at this moment, Edward was shocked. He did not expect her to

tell her parents about their relationship. “You told them?”

Rose nodded. Her expression was very natural and happy, “Yes, our family is all clear-minded. We

support free love. Does your family support free love?”

Edward wanted to say that the Landor family couldn’t be more supportive of it. If Rose could agree to

register their marriage today, he suspected that his mother would send engagement gifts immediately.



She could not wait for him to get married the next second and have a child the next second.

However, he was afraid of scaring Rose, so he didn’t say what he was thinking.

He couldn’t help but smile. He stepped on the accelerator and sped up. “Our family is also free. Then,

I’ll pick you up for lunch.”

Since it had been made public, there was no need to change cars. The driver was quite tired. He could

protect her.
