Chapter 529 

Having received the photo, Ava looked at it in disbelief. It was clearly photoshopped. 

She picked up the phone and examined it carefully several times. In the end, she confirmed that it was indeed photoshopped.  S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

As someone who was proficient in computer science, she could tell at a glance how the photo was stitched together. However, she did not expose it immediately. Instead, she wondered, “When did my brother and future sister–in–law take this photo? And why did they photoshop a photo for the family to see?” 

Nonetheless, she had to admit that the photoshop was done quite well. People like Stella who did not know much about computers definitely could not tell. 

“What’s wrong? You’re frowning like you’re troubled. Do you want to ask Grace about it?” 

As soon as Frank returned, he saw the little girl frowning. 

Seeing Frank, who was worried about him, Ava handed the phone to him and showed him the photo right away. “Frank, look at this photo.” 

Under Ava’s urging gaze, Frank took the phone and looked at it. With just a glance, he saw that there was something unusual about the photo. As if he understood something, the corners of his mouth curled up into a charming smile. 

Ava was in a daze like she was love–struck. She quietly held her cheek and stared at Frank, admiring just how handsome Frank was. She felt that she had such a good taste in men. 

Just as Frank was pondering and speculating, Ava received another message from Stella. [I don’t know the exact time, but it should be a few months ago. Probably before Rose was pregnant, or around the time Sherri got married. I’m not sure though. I need to ask my mom about when she first received the photo from my sister.] 

Stella had no idea what the exact date was. She had long forgotten it. Then, she casually gave Ava a rough time. [It should be six months ago, Yes, six months. They take photos together all the time.] 

Then, Stella sent Ava a few more photos of Joseph and Christina.. 

Frank and Ava leaned their heads on the table and looked up at the same time. As if she had discovered a new world, Ava asked with excitement, “Did Joseph and Christina get together because he helped her to photoshop photos?” 

Ava could not even believe her own words after saying them. Her tiny eyes opened wide, and her face was covered in shock, 

Frank tidied up the little girl’s hair that had fallen because of her excitement and explained, “This should be Christina’s work. She studied this in university.” 

He continued, “Christina must have asked for Joseph’s help and paid him. That’s how they knew each other. In Athana, they might have met coincidentally. Or maybe Joseph fell in love with Christina.” 

Based on Frank’s understanding of Christina’s work and his analysis of Joseph’s slightly evil nature, he was certain that Joseph was the one who let out the bait, and Christina took it. 

Frank was very confident about this. 

Ava had yet to come back to her senses. The fact that her brother and future sister–in–law actually got together because of a lie was too ridiculous. 

To craft a lie together and then end up being with each other could only be described as fate. 

“Stop thinking about it. All is well in the end. They’ve known each other for a long time. According to the evidence Stella provided, it should have been before Hackett 

got married.” 

Hackett’s wedding was on Valentine’s Day when Lithern Club’s hotel was completely filled. Therefore, as Frank calculated. the date in his heart, he realized that it had indeed been half a year, as Stella had said. As for whether it was true or not, he did not probe further. In short, he could confirm that Joseph and Christina knew each other a long time. ago. 

“If Mom and Dad knew about this, they would probably be scared to death. It’s like every time Joseph does something, it’s shocking. What he did this time was insane. Christina completely fell for his trap.” 

Frank used Ava’s phone and transferred the photos to his phone, then sent them to Trevon. Since Hackett was such a big mouth, he skipped him. 

After sending the message, Frank gently placed the phone on the table and said something that made Ava even more dumbfounded. “Maybe she fell for the trap on purpose.” 

When Ava came back to her senses, she smiled happily and unrestrainedly. Her smile was infectious, and gradually, Frank smiled, too. 

At the Wilson’s residence. 

Natalie was discussing with Trevon about starting to work after the New Year holidays. The topic was raised by Trevon. He felt that Natalie could go out to work and have her own space while he would take care of the children. 

Even if work resumed after the new year, he could come back to visit the children at any time. Moreover, there were so many people at home to take care of them. 

Theo fully supported Natalie in going to work. He had emphasized and told Natalie a long time ago to follow her heart and go to work if she wanted, telling her not to worry about the children. 

“I think I’ll wait a little longer. I’ll see about it after my maternity leave.” Actually, Natalie wanted to accompany the children. The three children were still young. She could not let her family take care of them all. It would make her look like she was only in charge of giving birth to them. 

Natalie stared at the three children with reluctance. Jasper was already sound asleep on the small bed. The two Little Princesses kept kicking their legs like, sucking on their own fingers, and babbling in their own language. 

Trevon took off his jacket and prepared to take a shower. “Honey, have you ever thought of going to Joseph’s station to work? It will start operating after the new year. If you go things will be easier. Plus, if you miss the children, you can 

there to work come back anytime. You can also bring the children there if you want to.” 

Trevon hoped that Natalie would resign from her current job and work at the station. After all, working shifts was quite tiring. 

Natalie had thought about this before, but she had yet to make up her mind. “I’ll consider it for a few more days.” 

“Okay, there’s no hurry. Take your time to think about it. I’ll support whatever decision you make.” 

“Go take a shower. Wait, you got a text.” Natalie glanced at Trevon’s phone from the corner of her eye and saw the screen light up, so she suddenly called out to him. 

“Honey, help me deal with it. I’m going to take a shower.” As he spoke, Trevon picked up his clothes and entered the bathroom, not caring who sent the message.. 

The password was her birthday, and she opened the lock screen of his phone like she had done it countless times. The two of them did not have any secrets. They helped each other look at their phones and reply to messages all the time. Sometimes, when Trevon was changing diapers, Natalie would reply to texts from Jim. 

She was like his personal secretary. 

She turned on Trevon’s phone. The home screen background was her photo, and the lock screen was a photo of the three children. It was very lovely and blissful. 

What she saw was Frank’s text. Since Natalie did not know anything about computers, she did not notice the problem. She was just curious about why Frank sent photos of Jospeph and Christina to Trevon. 

Ava had shared the good news with Natalie long ago that Joseph and Christina had gone to the Yamin family to propose the marriage. Natalie was really glad for the two of them that Joseph had found the one he loved. She wished everyone she knew would be happy. 

Fifteen minutes later, Trevon came out in white pajamas. Perhaps because he did not dry his hair in time, his shoulders were stained with water droplets. “Dry your hair first,” Natalie said. 

“Alright. Roger that, Honey.” 

Natalie could not help but laugh. This guy had completely changed. From time to time, he would say a few witty words nowadays. 

About six minutes later, Trevon came out again. He walked to the bed and sat down. The little guys in the cradle had already fallen asleep while playing. 

Natalie was covering the little ones with a blanket when she realized that the man’s shoulders were still wet. Thus, she pushed his back and said, “Go change into another pajamas. Your shoulders are wet.” 

Trevon was very obedient. He quickly got up and went to the wardrobe to get his pajamas. He changed into a new set and buttoned up before walking toward the small bed and cradle. Then, he bent down and kissed the foreheads of the two Little Princesses. A satisfied smile appeared on his lips. 

Then, he went to Jasper and tidied up the blanket. He touched his son’s forehead with his fingers but did not kiss him. 

Natalie did not disturb him. She just watched quietly as this once extremely proud man did the necessary routine actions before bed. 

After all that, Trevon finally lifted the blanket and got in. 

She handed the phone to him and planned to discuss the doubts she had just now. “Frank texted a few photos of my brother with Christina. I don’t know what he’s up to.” 

Knowing that Frank would not send someone else’s photo for no reason, Trevon took over his phone and turned it on. He glanced at the photo, then immediately understood it and smiled. “So that’s the problem.” 

Natalie leaned over to take a look. Trevon held her waist as she said. “What? what’s the problem? What’s wrong with the photo?” 

“Look at these photos carefully. Do you see anything out of place?” 

After taking a closer look, Natalie still did not notice anything. Natalie frowned. “The biggest problem is that the two of them are quite compatible. If there’s really a problem, it’s that my brother doesn’t seem to be very photogenic and isn’t as handsome as in real life. Do you feel that way?” 

Natalie’s first impression was that the photos looked very rigid. 

“Honey, has giving birth affect your mind? That’s exactly the problem. These photos are photoshopped. Joseph and Christina did not actually take these photos together.” 

Natalie was in disbelief. She narrowed his eyes and asked with a frown, “Photoshopped? Why?” 

She felt that Joseph’s parents did not urge him to get married to the extent of him having to photoshop photos. All they did was subtly bring up Joseph’s marriage matters to her. 

Trevon’s large palm caressed her slightly chubby waist. “The reason should be because Christina’s family was too eager for her to get married. She couldn’t take it anymore, so she hired Joseph. Perhaps Joseph got hired deliberately to set a trap for her.” 

After listening to that, Natalie was at a loss. How could Joseph do that? This was so evil. 

Trevon’s mind was not on the photo. He already knew the connection between Joseph and Christina. His eyes were filled with desire. With slightly red eyes, he turned around and asked, “Natalie, can we?” 

“What about the three children? Do you want to do a live broadcast?” Natalie did not dare to look straight at the man’s direct eyes. They were too steamy. 

This sentence made the originally excited man suddenly discouraged. It seemed like he had to find a reason to let the nanny take care of the children tomorrow. The next moment, he whispered softly, “Then let’s have a quickie. I won’t make a sound.” 

Looking helplessly at the pitiful man who had not been satisfied for so long, Natalie could not bear it and could only compromise. However, they had no control over how things turned out to be. 

The moment the kiss landed, the situation immediately got out of control and there was no way to escape. Natalie also realized that she really missed Trevon, and her body was itching from the teasing. 

They kissed for a long time until they were both breathing heavily, and Trevon croaked, “Let’s go to the bathroom, huh?” 

Before Natalie agreed, Trevon already carried her straight to the bathroom. When they walked into the bathroom, he shamelessly said, “Install the system in this room next time.” 

“Shut up. Are you coming or not? It’s getting cold.” 

“It won’t. It’ll warm up soon…” The temperature in the bathroom kept rising, and half of her pajamás had dropped. The buttons fell off, and the beautiful scenery was exposed… 

Everything was out of control, and a storm was imminent. 

Just as the two of them were about to go further, the bedroom phone rang at the most inappropriate time. Afraid of disturbing the children’s sleep, Trevon had no choice but to run out in frustration. His face was as black as coal, and he was in a horrible mood. 

The call was from Chris. 

Trevon picked it up impatiently. His voice was as cold as the winter wind. “You’d better have something important to say. Otherwise, your hospital is going to close down after the New Year.” 

Chris could hear the rage in Trevon’s words. “Shit, did I catch you in the middle of something? Sorry, it’s mainly because I’m single and don’t know what time you guys do it at night. Next time, give me a schedule, and I’ll remember it.” 

Trevon was not in the mood to bullshit with her. “What is it?” 

Chris acted like a salesman trying to make a sale. “Are you going to do the vasectomy or not? When?” 

“Is Yamin Hospital going bankrupt? Why are you trying to get business so late at night?” 

Trevon’s anger did not dissipate, as he said in a hostile tone. 

“Didn’t you say that you wanted to do a vasectomy? I’ve got a lot of surgeries to do lately, so I’m asking you out of kindness if you need me to arrange it for you, in case you want to do it soon.” 

Natalie tidied up her clothes and came out of the bathroom. Because Chris was too loud, she heard the word “vasectomy” from the bathroom door. “You want to do a vasectomy?” 

Trevon turned around and saw Natalie standing at the bathroom door, not looking very happy. Immediately, he completely ignored Chris‘ feelings and hung up the call. “Three is enough.” 

Giving birth was too painful. He could not bear to let her go through it again. 

“You’re not allowed to do it. What are you thinking? We’ll just be more careful in the future if we want to avoid it. You hear 

me?” Her tone was very firm. 

Seeing that Natalie was a little angry, Trevon explained, “It’s safer. It’s just a small surgery. It’s nothing.” 

“Are you a doctor, or am I?” She raised her hand and touched his cheek affectionately. “I know what you mean. You don’t want me to give birth, but there are other ways to avoid it. There’s no need to choose to do this kind of surgery. If you really want to be sure, we can just don’t do it.” 

He hugged her, and his eyes were filled with worry. He did not want her to worry or be unhappy, so he started to shift the blame. “Fine, Dr. Foster. Actually, I only agreed because Chris wanted to make sales. I don’t particularly want to do this surgery either. It was Chris who suggested it.” 

Natalie did not believe this at all. No one in this world could trick Trevon into doing something he did not. Plus, it was something as big as a vasectomy. 

However, she did not expose him and said, “Go on.“
