Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 172
The next morning, it was as if the sky had cleared after a rain shower, but it also felt as if the tragedy had been covered up.
No matter what mood a person was in, the sun would still rise. Whatever had occurred had already occurred. The heavens
would not stop time out of pity for that person. Time would still quietly slip through the fingers. It would never stop for that person
for a minute or a second. All that person could do was accept it.
Natalie Foster was worried about something. The first thing she thought of when she woke up was to go to the hospital. She
suddenly opened her eyes and got up. Just as she was about to lift the blanket and get out of bed on her right, she saw a man
sitting on her right
Who else could it be besides Trevon Wilson? Natalie didn’t expect to fall asleep herself either. Initially, she thought that since
Jasper wasn’t at home, she could go to the hospital to accompany Lena after taking a shower and blow-drying her hair. When
Lena woke up, she could still take care of Lena.
The man was still asleep. He wasn’t sleeping on his back but sleeping in a sitting position with his hack leaning against the bed
head. His two arms were crossed in front of his chest and he appeared very solemn.
So this guy had slept the entire night in this sitting position? He was usually so shameless, but this time, surprisingly, he did not
lie down
Natalie turned around and got off the bed from the left. She walked around to the right and picked up one side of the blanket to
cover him gently. From the looks of it, this guy must have slept like that for the entire night. There was nothing covering him at
all, and he did not seem to be worried about carching a cold.
Trevor’s level of vigilance had always been high. This was a habit he had developed a long time ago. He had actually woken up
the moment Natalie sat up. However, he was worried that it would be too awkward if his eyes met Natalie’s gaze, so he
pretended to sleep. To his surprise, this woman helped to cover him with a blanket. This was totally unexpected. Trevon was
secretly delighted and continued to pretend to sleep.
After covering Trevon with the blanket, Natalie took out her cell phone and checked the time. It was already seven in the
morning. She wondered how Lena and the others were doing and whether they were awake.
Just as she was about to put away her cell phone and go to the bathroom to wash up, she realized that she had received a
message from an unfamiliar number. It was a multimedia message

Out of curiosity, Natalie paused and clicked on the message to take a look. When she saw the images, the shock was too great
for her to accept
Natalie’s vision became more and more blurred. Her eyes became vacant and tears the size of beans flowed out of her eyes.
The pain in her heart condensed into a thick dark fog that could not be dispersed. In the end, it suffocated her until she could not
say a word.
This message successfully crushed her pretense of being strong She did not realize that Jasper’s safety was exchanged with
their lives, Guilt, indebtedness, self-blame... All kinds of emotions surged.
A heart-wrenching pain and helplessness crept into every cell in Natalie’s body... In spite of herself, she cried hoarsely Trevon
thought that the woman would do something else next. After waiting for a while, the room became increasingly quieter. There
was not even the sound of walking. He slowly opened his eyes and turned his head to look for Natalie. He saw her sitting quietly
on the left side of the bed. She did not make a sound, but her shaking shoulders made him panic. He quickly got up and walked
over.
As he stood looking down, searching for the reason that upset Natalie, he saw her eyes locked on the cell phone’s screen. Her
gaze was still on the cell phone’s screen even though her vision was already blurred. Trevon lowered his gaze to look at the
screen that was still lit. His eyes turned extremely icy, and the veins on his tightly clenched fists bulged up visibly.
In order to prevent Natalie from seeing these images, Trevon had asked Frank Roberts to remove all the news posts in advance
Yet there were still people who did not know what was good for them.
Trevon slowly squatted down, leaned close, and tried to pull the cell phone that Natalie was holding tightly away. His first attempt
couldn’t pull the cell phone loose, so he pried Natalie’s hand open one finger at a time before finally taking the cell phone out and
placing it on the bedside table. Then, he got up and held the back of her head with his palm. He gently pressed her head into his
arms and restrained all the hostility in his body as he said softly. “Just cry.”
These two words successfully caused Natalie, who had been immersed in pain and suppressing her emotions, to burst into tears
loudly. She cried at the top of her lungs as if she wanted to tear the sky apart. Every cry hit Trevon’s heart heavily, and his chest
was about to crack open from each successive hit.
He pursed his lips and his face was full of iciness. His palm gently stroked Natalie’s head, trying to calm her down with this
method

Only Natalie’s hysterical crying could be heard in the entire suite. Trevon was like a stone statue as he kept repeating the same
motion. He did not say anything and simply accompanied her quietly until she was done venting her emotions. It was better to let
it out than hold it in. Perhaps she would feel much better after a bout of crying
About half an hour later, Natalie grew tired from the crying. Gradually, there were only soft sobs left. Trevon slowly
squatted down and looked at her red and swollen eyes. He took a tissue and helped her wipe her tears. “Are you feeling better?
What happened has already happened. What we have to do is take care of things in the aftermath. We’ll make proper
arrangements for those who have departed. For those who survived, we’ll compensate twice over in the future, okay?”
This was the first time Trevon had seen Natalie cry. It also verified his thoughts last night. She would hide and heal her injuries,
showing only her strong side in front of everyone.
Natalie understood what Trevon meant. She also knew that the dead were gone. However, the images from the photos had been
deeply embedded in her mind and she could not get rid of them no matter how she tried. There was also that image of Ethan
White collapsing at the last moment while protecting Jasper. How much conviction did he have to hold on until the
end?
When he saw that she was still in a daze and slid not look very energetic, Trevon said patiently, “Wash your face. Lena has
already been transferred to a general ward. The Turner family’s bodyguard is expected to regain consciousness in the next two
days. Today, we’ll help Jenny settle her funeral matters. Where do you want to settle her final resting place?”
These words snapped Natalie out of her daze. She said in a voice with a strong naval tone. “I want to place Jenny beside
Grandpa. On the headstone... write “Forever in Daughter Natalie Foster’s heart. This was because Jenny was worth it.
“Alright, I’ll take care of it. Go wash up first. Jim Hawk will send breakfast over later. After eating, we’ll go to the hospital.” It never
occurred to Trevon that Natalie would indicate herself as the daughter on the headstone. Grandpa was right. This woman was
very kind. He had to admit that he was blind.
Natalie got up and went to the bathroom to wash up. Trevon walked to the sofa and sat down. He called Jim and told him to
contact the funeral parlor and the funeral services company. He instructed Jun on all the details that the latter needed to pay
attention to. Trevon did not even give such detailed instructions on his company’s matters. He was worried that he would make a
mistake or leave something not done well.

Not long after that, Jim arrived. In fact, he had been waiting downstairs for a long time. However, Trevon did not call him on the
phone, so he did not dare to intrude. After all, it was not easy for Trevon to walk into Natalie’s home openly.
He hoped that after this matter, Trevon could reconcile with Natalie.
Jini pressed the doorbell and was greeted by a scene that surprised even himself. The man, who was always dressed.
meticulously, had a stubble on his chin and dark circles under his eyes. It was obvious that he had not slept enough and was
exhausted. “Mr. Wilson, here are the breakfast and clothes. Everything at the funeral parlor has been taken care of You can just
rush to the funeral parlor with Mrs. Wilson directly. The cremation time is 9.30 am They still had more than an hour so there was
sufficient time.
“Mm-hm. Don’t make any mistakes. Get Frank to check this number.” Trevon sent the number he had memorized to Jim and
closed the door, Jim stood there in astonishment when he was locked outside.
Forget it. Things were not easy for Trevon, so fim didn’t mind.
After washing up, Natalie came out. She did not put on any makeup On her pure, bare face, her eyes were still swollen. She
walked to the master bedroom and closed the door. Trevon turned around to look at the closed door and could not help feeling
helpless. She did not forget to guard against him even when she was so sad. He had seen every part of her body and the image
was still vivid in his mind.
He finally knew why he made a move on her back then. It turned out that he had long harbored designs on her. It was just that he
realized everything too late and by then, she had already left.
Ten minutes later, Natalie came out wearing a black dress and sat down at the dining table right away. She picked up a hotdog
and stuffed it into her mouth.
Trevon unhurriedly opened a small bowl of soup and placed it in front of her. Have some soup to warm your stomach. Slow
down. We still have time. The cremation time is 9:30 am. Eat first while I go change my clothes. I have to borrow your bathroom.”
Natalie’s hand that was holding the hotdog paused. Just a second later, she stuffed the hotdog into her mouth and said softly.
“Thank you.”
The man’s face didn’t show much emotion. He just felt heartache for her. He had never known how Natalie remained so Strong.
Now, he regretted that he did not accompany her when her grandfather passed away. He didn’t know how she managed to pull

through. Back then, she probably didn’t feel any better than she did now. “I don’t need your thanks. It’s good enough as long as
you don’t push me away.”
After a while. Natalie lowered her gaze and said dejectedly, Trevon Wilson”
“Hmmm? What’s wrong?” Trevon was surprised that Natalie suddenly called his name so calmly. She rarely called him by his full
name. He was a little flustered inwardly, but he remained calm on the surface.
“I forgive you.” She didn’t say they could get back together. She only forgave him. She forgave him for the wrongs he commuted
in the past.
Jenny’s passing. Lena’s injury, and Ethan White’s coma told her a piece of truth. That piece of truth was human life was very
fragile. No one could tell if the sun would rise first tomorrow or an accident would occur first.
Perseverance was really useful. Grandpa was right. Only by being sincere could one get forgiveness in exchange. Natalie had
only said that she would forgive Trevon, but the excitement in his heart was no less than successfully closing the deal on a
project worth 200 million dollars or even more.
As Trevon suppressed his excitement, he smiled warmly at Natalie. For a few seconds, four eyes locked above the dining table.
No difficulty was insurmountable if one was sincere
Trevon walked into the bathroom with a smile to change and wash up. It was unprecedented that he had stayed up all night
without taking a shower.
