Turning Of The Tide By Diana Sander Novel

Chapter 239

The golden sun shone on the beach of the same color, merging into one.

Beauties and sea would always make a beautiful painting. Three women in bikinis were happily chasing each other. One woman in a floral halter dress would occasionally join in this enviable play

On the edge of the recliner on the beach, four men in sunglasses were attracted by this beautiful scenery.

Beauties would always attract people’s attention, let to mention women in bikinis.

Hackett was wearing shorts, a pink short-sleeved shirt, a pair of sunglasses, and flip-flops. He sat on the sand and played with Ruby. “Baby, what kind of castle do you want?”

Ruby made a high gesture. Hackett smiled and coaxed, “Call me Daddy. Daddy will build a tall and big one for you, okay?”

Ruby’s childish voice was filled with smiles and anticipation. “Daddy.”

Hackett patted her daughter’s head dotingly, feeling especially satisfied. His heart was filled with warmth. “Good girl, I will build you a really big castle. A castle which only belongs to you”

Trevon was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, gray shorts, and black slippers. He sat on the recliner, his gaze fixed on the woman running on the beach. He wanted to go over, but he was afraid of disturbing the happy atmosphere.

It was rare to see a blooming smile on Natalie’s face.

Perhaps Jasper also wanted to build a castle. He tugged at Trevon’s broad palm. “Daddy”

Trevon retracted his gaze and glanced at Hackett. Then, he held his son’s earlobe and asked, “You want to build a castle too?”

Jasper nodded truthfully a few times in a row, trying to express his thoughts through actions.

If words didn’t work, action would.

Without hesitation. Trevon got down from the recliner and squatted beside Jasper. He took a shovel and taught Jasper step by step. He was very patient. “Do it with me. You have to learn to do it yourself.”

Jasper clumsily held the small shovel and glanced at his father’s movements from time to time. Then, he imitated his father. He learned quite well. Trevon was very satisfied. He did not say it out loud, but the corners of his mouth still curled up.

He believed that boys could not be praised all the time. In that case, they would easily be complacent and conceited. But parents also could not constantly discourage boys. They might lose confidence.

Hackett leaned close to Ruby’s ear. “Baby, let’s do our best. Let’s compete with Jasper to see whose castle looks better, okay?”

Ruby’s eyes instantly lit up. Her blinking eyes were clear like seawater. “Okay.”

Hackett did not waste any time. As he accompanied his daughter to build the castle, he tried to find a topic to talk to Frank. “This kind of life is too comfortable, Frank, which of the four looks the best over there?”

After a few seconds, without waiting for Frank to answer, he continued, “Forget it. You won’t be able to choose even if you want to. One is my girlfriend, one is Trevon’s girlfriend, and the other is your sister. Other than Ava, you don’t seem to have any other choice.”

He felt a little thirsty after talking too much. He took a sip of the coconut on the small table. “Hiss… Ah… It feels good.”

After putting the coconut back on the table, he continued. “You don’t need to choose Ava. A fair lady like her won’t like rough guys like you. You are not gentle at all. Alas.”

Frank was wearing a dark gray short-sleeved suit with a sunhat covering his face. No one could tell his emotions. As he listened to Hackett, he took off the sunhat and glanced at Hackett, who was building a castle on the ground. “Who the hell are you? Why are you trying to tell others fortune every day? Just try to tell me when you will die, okay? Since we are besties, I will prepare you the best coffin. I can guarantee that your funeral will be glorious.”

Hackett’s good mood instantly dissipated under Frank’s curse. He cursed, “Fuck, are you a pufferfish? Why did you get angry so easily? I curse you for never finding a girlfriend in your life. Which girl would dare to chat with someone mean like you?”

In an instant, a scene appeared in Frank’s mind. In just a few seconds, he calmly lay on the recliner again and covered his face with the sun hat.

Trevon turned a deaf ear to their bickering and continued to teach his son how to build a castle. Seeing that Jasper was about to wipe his dirty hands on his clothes, Trevon stopped him and said, “There’s no need to wipe your hands. Wash your hands when your hands get dirty. Let’s wash our hands when everything is done. If you wipe your hands with your clothes, you will bring your mother extra work.”

Jasper replied obediently. “Oh.”

After ridiculing Hackett, Frank started talking about Trevon again. He looked like he was bored. “Tsk, tsk, you never stop talking about Natalie. You’re really mushy.”

Trevon was squatting with his back facing Hackett. He said indifferently. “You can ask your daughter to dirty the entire dress. Try if Sherri will praise you or scold you”

Hackett thought. “Aren’t you talking nonsense? At that time, I would be lucky if I didn’t get beaten to death.”

Jum and Terrell were sitting on the sand. They were barefooted and grabbed the sand one by one. They fell to the ground with the wind and played tirelessly. “Terrell, is your salary high at the Foster Group?”

Terrell repled expressionlessly. “Don’t you know that it’s very rude to ask about other people’s salaries? It’s like asking other people’s age Don’t you know how to write the word ‘privacy?”

Jim was a little speechless. After a while, he said. “Terrell, you’re getting cocky in the Foster Group” Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Terrell shrugged nonchalantly and said humbly, “What can I do? I’m just capable. I can shine wherever I go. Why don’t you do it?”

Jim replied in dissatisfaction. “You’re so smug. Look at how erratic you are. When did you become like this? You’re making it seem like I can’t do it. I’m capable enough too,”

Jim’s ability was recognized by Trevon. When Trevon was hurt, Jim had been running the company well.

Terrell had complex expressions. It was hard to tell whether he agreed or not. “It’s a good thing that you’re very confident, but blind confidence is foolish.”

Jim turned sideways and glared at Terrell. He thought, “We can’t continue our chat anymore. I can’t talk to him, other I might hate him more and more. He’s so cocky!”

Trevon and Jasper had finished building half of the castle. He glanced sideways at Natalie, who was still playing in the water barefoot. His cell phone in his pocket rang. He looked away and glanced at the caller ID on the display screen. He pressed the answer button. “Grandpa.”

Hearing this, Hackett turned to look at Trevon. After that, he watched as Trevon made calls. Frank did not feel anything and continued to take a nap in the sun.

Theo’s mellow voice overflowed from the phone screen. “Is it comfortable to enjoy the holiday when you are injured?”

Trevon smiled. “Not bad. Grandpa, if you envy me, I will pick you up here to enjoy the sun.”

Theo could tell how smug Trevon was. “Humph, Natalie is kind. She never holds any grudges. She lets you off so easily. If it were other girls, they wouldn’t be so nice to you.”

Trevon continued. “If it were someone else, I wouldn’t like them either. Grandpa, you carefully chose her as my wife. I have to listen to you, right?”

Theo was furious and retorted bluntly. “Humph, if you listen to me, you don’t need to chase after her so difficultly”

Trevon was speechless.

Theo did not want to see his grandson’s smug face. He snorted and got down to business. “Max will be engaged to that girl from the Foster family on the 18th of next month.”

Back then, for the sake of Theo, Trevon didn’t expose the fact that Max was impotent. Trevon thought that Max’s mother would choose a lady from a noble family. Unexpectedly, it was still Emily. It seemed that Emily really had something.

Theo could tell that Trevon was calm. “Looks like you expected this.”

“Would you believe me if I said that it was unexpected? Anyway, no matter who marries him. he wouldn’t be able to give the girl happiness. It doesn’t matter who marries him.”

Theo couldn’t help but be a little worried, but he didn’t realize that Trevon was referring to sex life. “I agree with you. Once they get engaged, it’s inevitable for them to meet you. Natalie doesn’t like that girl. She has made it obvious. I can see that. If Natalie doesn’t want to come back, don’t force her.”

Trevon said in a low voice. He had some anger in his heart. “I won’t force her. As long as she’s happy, she can do anything.”

Theo was very satisfied with his grandson’s change. He praised Trevon generously, “Your EQ seems to be higher than before. I always think you will always be someone without EQ I almost give up on you.”

Trevon was shocked.

He replied coldly, “Grandpa, is there anything else? If not, I’m hanging up.”

Theo missed Jasper. “Is Jasper by your side?”

Trevon replied, “No, he’s asleep.

Theo did not believe Trevon. Theo instructed sternly, “Give Jasper the phone.”

Although Trevon was dissatisfied, he still placed the phone next to Jasper’s ear and said softly. “It’s your great-grandpa. Say

hello.”

Jasper liked Theo. When he was in the Wilson’s residence, he liked to stay with Theo. When he heard that it was a call from

Theo, he immediately smiled with his white teeth exposed. “Great-grandpa.”

It had been a long time since Theo had seen Jasper or heard Jasper’s voice. Theo missed Jasper so much that his voice became a little hoarse. “Hey, Jasper, do you miss me?”

“Yes, I do.”

Theo said, “Alright, alright, alright. Come to have fun with me after you are back.”

“Okay.” Jasper, who did not know many words, could only try his best to find some words to reply.

After saying that, Trevon placed the phone to his ear. After a few seconds of silence, he said, “We will let Jasper stay with you for a few days after we go back. I’ll let you take care of him as much as you want.”

Theo hung up with a smile.

Theo’s voice was loud and clear. Hackett was just a short distance away from Trevon, so he had heard a little. At this moment, he was curious. “Who is Max going to marry?”

Trevon looked at the women splashing water at each other on the beach. A few seconds later, he retracted his gaze and said, “Emily Foster.”

Hackett said, “What a perfect couple!”

Then, Hackett asked seriously, “After Max marries Emily, does Natalie need to meet Emily often?”

At this moment, Hackett was really worried for Trevon though he often joked with Trevon. Hackett remembered that the Wilson family would gather every few days.

Trevon was not joking either. “Rules are rules. She doesn’t need to obey them.”

Hackett said. “You dote on your wife too much.”

“You and Frank have to prepare the wedding gifts for me.”

Before Hackett could say anything, Frank said under the sunhat, “I don’t have money. I have someone to raise.”

Rose wasn’t joking about letting Frank raise her. She meant it. Ever since she chose to rest, she shopped even at midnight. Now, her express boxes filled Deepwater Bay.

There were still many unopened ones. The point was none of those things were bought for Frank.

Trevon couldn’t help but laugh. “You begged her to come back. You have to raise her.”

Hackett continued ruthlessly. “You deserve. It’s better if another woman appears to discipline you. I want to see you being controlled by two women. It’s said that one had better not offend any women. This is my survival manual. Let me share it with you. You should thank me.”

Frank ignored Hackett and pretended to be deaf.
