Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon) novel Chapter 433

Chapter 433

A few hours later. Frank’s flight successfully landed at Athana’s airport.

Athana’s weather was very good. The sky was clear, and the white clouds in the sky were like cotton. They looked soft, reminding him of Ava’s personality. He had just reached Athana and was already missing her a little.

The Turner family’s bodyguards wanted to follow Frank down the plane, but they were stopped by him. “Thank you. Do you want to go to the hotel to rest? There’s no need to send me back home.”

The bodyguards stood up in unison. “Mr. Roberts, this is our duty. Mr. Turner has instructed us to send you home. This is

our mission.”

The bodyguards‘ stubbornness made Frank very exasperated. He had experienced loyalty from Pat before, and now he was experiencing it again. “Thank you.”

The bodyguards said, “Mr. Roberts, you’re too kind. It’s our duty.”

Exasperated, Frank shook his head again. He didn’t even have a new word to describe this. He could only ask the bodyguards to send him back to the Roberts family. When they sent Frank back, he took out a few cigarettes from the car and gave them to the bodyguards.

They accepted the cigarettes from Frank.

As soon as Frank stepped into the living room, the phone in his back pocket rang. He put down his suitcase, took out his phone, and hung up. The call was from Hackett.

After hanging up the phone, he stood in the living room and sent a message to Ava. [Baby Ava, I’m back in Athana. Don’t cry. I’ll pick you up when Hackett gets married. Before that time, I can also pick you up when you want to come to Athana, or I’ll go look for you.]

The message was not immediately replied. Frank guessed that Ava was probably still sleeping because she was too tired last night.

He casually pushed her luggage in and walked straight to the sofa. He was indeed a little tired after sitting on the plane for so long, coupled with the fact that he had expended a lot of energy the entire night.

Frank yawned and instructed the servant, “Give me a cup of coffee.”

The servant said respectfully, “Yes, Mr. Roberts.”

When the servant brought the coffee over, Frank asked again, “Did William and Grace go to the company?”

The servant stood upright. “Yes, Mr. Roberts.”

Frank waved his hand to indicate that there was nothing else. Then, he took a sip of coffee and lay on the couch. He dialed the number that had just been hung up and said impatiently, “Speak.”

On the other end of the call, Hackett was in a good mood. “You’re up. The scenery of Sapphire City is indeed more beautiful than Athana. It can even make you wake up early. Actually, I’m just trying to see if I can get through”

Unexpectedly, Hackett’s call was returned after he had been hung up. When he fell in love, Frank’s temper improved a lot. Frank rubbed his temples impatiently. For a moment, he regretted returning this guy’s call. “Are you bored?”

Hackett smiled obsequiously and quickly explained, “How can that be? I just wanted to ask when my best man–to–be would be back.

A word spilled out from Frank’s lips. “Athana.”

“Fuck. When did you fucking come back? It’s only past eight o’clock. You didn’t look for us when you came back last night. You’ve really thrown us out of the window since you have your Little Princess. You’re too biased”

He had no idea that Frank had returned in the morning and continued harping on it. He tried his best to complain that Frank had no sense of brotherhood so that he could move on to the goal of the call.

Frank acted as if he did not hear his nonsense and automatically blocked it out. “If you have something to say, say it. If not, get lost.”

Seeing that Frank was in a hurry to hang up, Hackett quickly got to the point. “Meet at Lithern Club tonight”

This time, Frank did not refuse. Instead, he agreed readily. “Okay.

Before Hackett could react, Frank had already hung up.

After hanging up, Frank looked at his phone and realized that Ava still had not replied to his message. He simply placed the phone on his stomach.

The coffee didn’t work. He was a little sleepy. Frank took off his shoes and lay on the couch. He folded his hands behind has head and narrowed his eyes.

Chapter 433

At this moment, his mind was filled with Ava’s bright smiles.

The servants knew that Frank had a cold personality, so they did not dare to ask him if he wanted a blanket. The servants in the Roberts family were very well–behaved and there would not be a case where a female servant would attempt a seduction. There were two reasons. The first was that the employees were personally chosen by Grace. It could be said that she had investigated the potential employees thoroughly. The second was that all the employees were relatively older.

In the dark room, the person on the bed subconsciously touched the spot beside her. She closed her eyes and felt her hand around.

A few seconds later, she realized that it was empty. Even the temperature was no longer warm. Her palm could feel the coolness of the bedsheet.

With that, the coolness reached her heart through her palm and turned into a trace of disappointment.

The soft translucent curtains draped down because the screen windows were tightly shut. Her arm reached out from under the blanket and reached for the phone on the bedside table according to her memory.

The light from her phone stimulated her so much that she had no choice but to squint her beautiful eyes to relieve the sudden intense light. She was not used to it. After squinting for about half a minute, she opened her sleepy eyes to look at the time on her phone. It was 11:32.

Why did she sleep so late? Frank should be in her room at this time. Where did he go?

Ava was already used to Frank lying motionlessly beside her while she slept and waited for her to wake up. For some reason, she panicked and quickly opened a message on her phone.

She put on a relaxed tone, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and waited for his reply.

Actually, at this moment, Ava was afraid that Frank would call.

However, Frank, who might just be able to read her mind, did not call. Instead, he replied, [I’m afraid you’ll cry, so I did not let you send me. Baby Ava, if you want to come to Athana, send me a message. I’ll pick you up.]

Ava began to comfort Frank to reassure him. [No need. Isn’t Sherri getting married next month? I’m going to be the bridestnaid. When the time comes, Mom and the others will have to go over.]

Frank guessed that Ava had already cried. [Okay. Are you feeling unwell?]

As soon as he said this, bashful thoughts from last night surged into Ava’s mind. She replied with a red face, [No, I’m fine. What time did you arrive in Athana?]

Frank texted, [8 p.m.]

Ava really wanted to say that she could accept parting too, but she just needed a little time. However, she did not say so in her message. [Alright, don’t leave so early in the future. We didn’t even kiss goodbye.]

Frank agreed. [Okay.]

Seeing that the other party was not typing, Frank panicked and typed again. [Baby Ava, your mom said that when you all come for Hackett’s wedding, you will be staying with us. I’ll show you Grace boxing then.]

Unknowingly, Frank was speaking more when he was with Ava. He was learning to ease her unhappiness.

Ava said, [Really? Then I’ll have to plan what date to go and what gift to bring for her. I’ll have to think about it carefully.]

Frank texted, [There’s no hurry. It’s fine if you don’t buy it. Grace doesn’t care.]

That definitely wouldn’t do. How could she not buy something on her first visit? Ava was already thinking about what to buy.

The two of them chatted for another half an hour before Frank finally urged her to eat. Only then did they stop this conversation reluctantly.

She put down her phone and walked to the window barefooted.

When she opened the screen window, it was as if she had been reborn. Her tears had already dried up, and the bright sunlight refracted onto her face. She closed her eyes to feel the warm sunlight, and the gloom in her heart gradually dissipated. The future was promising. She just had to wait.

When she opened the window, the breeze caressed Ava’s face as if it was comforting her. The curtains danced with the wind, and her sad emotions drifted to every corner of the courtyard with the wind. The entire room seemed to fall exceptionally quiet with her.

After sorting out her emotions, she turned on her phone again and replied to the messages in the Fairy Fortress. [I look forward to going to Athana.]
