Turning Of The Tide

Chapter 334
At the airport in Athana, Frank brought Ava to Grand Manor for a meal. After they finished eating, he drove straight to the airport.
According to the plan, Ava was going to board the plane at half past one. The duration of the flight was about four hours, s0 it
was almost dinner time by the time she arrived home.
The bodyguards who secretly tailed after her were already waiting on the plane. Joseph was the one that made this arrangement
for her before he left
At the car park of the airport, there was a black off-roader. It had an impressive and imposing appearance. The black exterior of
the car glistened in the reflected light, giving off a mysterious and impressive vibe. There was a lot of space in the
off-roader.
Two people who were reluctant to part from each other were sitting inside and holding hands. The girl’s eyes welled up with
tears, gradually blurring her vision. Parting was always sad. Rarely did people bid farewell with a smile. Even if they smiled, their
hearts were filled with anguish.
This was especially the case for lovers who were deeply in love
Frank sat in the driver’s seat. His heart ached. After a while, he said, “Tll accompany you back.”
Ava shook her head slightly. She was fine. It was just that she could not bear to leave. She was not that insensible. The round.
trip of about eight hours was exhausting. There would surely be more farewells in the future. She still had a long period of
studies ahead. It would not be practical to send her back every time only to return a
again.
Frank leaned over, unbuckled her seatbelt, and exerted strength to lift her onto his lap. His strength was remarkable, causing
Ava to instinctively wrap her arms tightly around his neck.
He shifted the seat backward, as if he was preparing for something. The space in front of the seat instantly became much more
spacious. Ava did not feel any sense of crowding at all.
She had a lingering attachment for Frank’s scent, and she did not want to leave for a moment. She buried her entire head in his
neck and wrapped her arms tightly around him, refusing to let go. His hands remained still and calm, resting on her waist without

any movement.
The next moment. Ava moved backward slightly. She cradled Frank’s face with both hands and looked at it carefully. With one
hand, she traced his handsome features. Frank’s eyes looked serious, but he cooperatively stayed still, allowing her to fiddle
around.
She traced for a while. Frank then asked, “Can you commit then to memory?”
“Yes,” Ava said. “Eyebrows, eyes, eyelashes, nose, mouth...” She liked these features. They had already been engraved in her
mind. How could she not be able to commit them to memory?
Frank looked at the young girl whose eyes were filled with a great sense of reluctance and affection. He could not hold back
anymore. He moved one of his hands upward slowly and held the back of her head, gently controlling her head with his broad
palin. 1lis other hand firmly held her waist in place.
Two warm lips were engaged in an uninhibited exchange. Their teeth were slowly pried apart. Affectionate feelings wandered
between their lips, taking possession of their lips. It was as if they were marking territory with drawn boundaries. Having
experienced it once, Ava knew that she needed to breathe and pant. She clumsily responded to Frank’s rhythm. When he
received a response, he looked as if he had been injected with stunulants. In the end, he lost control.
His warm lips no longer craved the exchange between lips and teeth. Ava’s ear became a new target, and her neck was the
second goal. His breath left its trace wherever it touched. Even when Ava’s face flushed with great intensity, Frank still could not
control himself. He did not pull away. He lowered his head and kissed her again. He wanted to act in an unrestrained
manner for once.
The long kiss in the car was unrestrained. The enclosed space was filled with romantic undertones and the overflowing
expression of affectionate feelings. It was unknown how long the kiss lasted. Ava’s lips were stained. It was only then that Frank
panted heavily and pulled away.
The roles were now reversed. Frank buried his head in Ava’s fragrant neck and panted heavily. His calm and hoarse voice could
be heard coming from Ava’s neck. “Baby Ava, what should I do with you?” he asked.
Ava was stunned. She did not know what Frank meant. She thought Frank was also reluctant to part with her.
Frank kissed her fragrant shoulder and took a deep breath. Then, he straightened up. He gently tidied her messy hair with one
hand. He was responsible for causing her hair to turn messy. “Your hair is messy,” he said. Teach me. I’ll help you tie it up.”

She smiled gently, and the warm sunshine once again found its way into Frank’s heart. Her sweet and soft voice could be heard.
“Okay,” she said.
After saying that, she was indeed not at all restrained. She opened the app on her phone and searched for tutorials on
braiding hair. She entered “fishbone braid” into the search bar.
In an instant, many braiding tutorials appeared on the screen. Ava scrolled through the screen and chose a simple tutorial. She
opened it and placed her phone on a stand, allowing Frank to watch.
The atmosphere of intimacy in the car was dispelled by this topic. Frank did not put Ava back in her seat. She remained seated
on his lap. He wrapped his arms tightly around her waist.
Ava lowered her gaze and noticed that Frank’s hands were slender and delicate. In comparison to a girl’s hands, his hands were
not inferior to a girl’s. Perhaps piano teachers would like his hands very much upon seeing them.
Frank watched the video attentively. After watching it for a while, it appeared that he understood. He released his hold on Ava’s
waist. Then, he gently untangled her disheveled hair, following the instructions in the video step by step. He displayed good
learning abilities. His hands were not clumsy like his feet. Naturally, the braiding he did was not unattractive. On the contrary, it
looked nice.
In no time, a completely new fishbone braid, which was Frank’s version, came into existence. Ava lightly touched it and found it
quite nice. She turned around with an expectant look, seeking permission. “Can I take a photo of us?” she asked.
Frank gave his permission. “Sure,” he said.
Today, Frank had unknowingly learned a brand new skill. That skill was braiding.
Sitting on Frank’s lap, Ava opened her phone. The corners of her lips lifted, revealing a smile that came from the heart. Frank’s
thin lips curled up slightly too. The curvature of their smiles was quite similar. When they entered the same frame, there was an
illusion that they looked like a married couple.
Ava wanted to take a few more photos, so she could look at them whenever she missed Frank. Click Click Click. She took over a
dozen photos. Then, she took a photo album of her fishbone braid. After taking the photos, she smuggled into Frank’s arms and
posted them on her social media. She uploaded the photos of her hairstyle that she had just taken. ‘One-of-a-kind boyfriend’s
version of fishbone braid” was the caption.

After posting, she smuggled up for a while before getting out of the car. It was already half past two. Any later would mean that it
would be dark when she returned home.
The two of them were already standing outside the car, facing each other. Frank said again, I’ll send you back.”
Ava declined again. She showed no signs of having any emotional burden. “It’s okay,” she said casually. “Ill be fine. Goodbye,
boyne. Im leaving now. Be sure to miss me.”
Ava’s face was filled with a blissful smile and reassuring affection. Seeing this, Frank could not bear to let her go. He reached.
out and pulled her into his arms again, hugging her tightly. “Goodbye, girllie, he said.
Tears welled up in Ava’s eyes again. The airplane’s fuselage gradually blurred. ‘T’ll miss you like hell, she said.
“Min Frank replied “Send me a message when you arrive.”
“Okay,” Ava replied obediently.
Frank escorted her to the plane. He controlled his emotions and got off the plane. He leaned against the black off-roader, pursed
his lips without saying a word, and smoked one cigarette after another. He looked up at the plane that soared into the sky. Even
though it had vanished from sight, he was still there. He did not leave.
He stepped into the driver’s compartment of his car and quietly looked at the azure sky. The scent left behind by Ava lingered in
the car. It was comforting.
Ava said that she would deduct points last night, but in the end, she could not bring herself to deduct even a single point.. In the
Wilson’s residence, the atmosphere was especially harmonious and warm at the dining table. Natalie had been living in the
Wilson’s residence for a few days. Every day, Trevon would pick her up and drop her off for work. She started to miss her own
beloved car a little, but she hesitated to use it at the Wilson’s residence as it might not be well-received by her mother-in-law
Lately. Theo had been in a great mood. He enjoyed the pleasure of family life every day. He felt like he might have added a few
more years to his life, and perhaps he would even live long enough to see the birth of his great-granddaughter or great-
grandson.
Theo picked up a pork rib and placed it in the bowl. He said affectionately. ‘Natalie, I’ve helped you identify some wedding dates.
One is April 8th, and the other is April 18th. May 1st is also a good option. Choose the one you prefer. I’ll go along with your
preference.”

Trevon, who did not express his opinion throughout the discussion, was eating seriously. He did not even raise his head. “I don’t
have to do anything today, he thought. “As long as I’m the groom on the wedding day, I’m fine with every
arrangement.”
Natalie now highly valued Rachel’s opinion. Rachel treated her better than before. Although Rachel did not say much, Natalie
could sense it. People who were emotionally sensitive could keenly perceive changes in their surroundings, noticing even the
smallest of actions or gestures.
They were more adept at sensitively capturing key messages compared to the average people.
“Caleb, Rachel. Trevon, which date do you think is better?” she said. Respecting each other was also a necessary aspect of
politeness that one should learn.
Rachel no longer had any objections to her daughter-in-law. As long as her son was happy, it was good. After spending some
time with Natalie at the Wilson’s residence, Rachel had genuinely come to like Natalie from the bottom of her heart as Natalie
handled things with tact and discretion. “I have no objections,” she said, “Choose whichever date both of you prefer. I’ll take care
of Jasper.”
This statement could be considered as expressing an opinion.
Caleb also replied reassuringly, “That’s right. This is your wedding. Choose a date that you prefer. Trevon will accommodate
accordingly.”
Jasper had been eating all along. Still holding a spoon, he said, “18”
Theo was delighted, “Oh my,” he said. “You sure know how to choose a date. Your mom hasn’t even decided yet, and you made
the decision. Little darling, this isn’t something you can decide. Mommy has to do it.”
Theo’s eyes were filled with a great sense of amusement. It was obvious that he was very happy.
Jasper took a slurp of mushroom soup. Even though he clearly did not understand, he replied, “Okay”
This time. Theo was even more delighted. He laughed out loud.
Natalie found it amusing that Trevon was still silent and looked aggrieved. She thought. “This guy is pretending to be pitiful.” She
then asked. “Trevon, which date do you prefer?”

Trevon felt much better. He thought, “It’s good to know that my wife still cares about me and values my opinion” Then, he replied.
“The date you prefer is the date I prefer
Good lord, Trevon earned a satisfied look from Theo and nodded at him knowingly in response.
Natalie was left speechless. She thought. “Well, we’re going to get married sooner or later. Our current status is already similar
to being married. The only things missing are the official announcement and the wedding ceremony.”
She thought there was no need to be overly coy. She immediately made a decision. “Theo, I’ll choose April 18th then,” she said.
Theo received a definite answer. By now, he had finished his meal. He slowly put down his spoon and fork. Then, he raised. his
head, looked at Trevon, and said, “Alright. Now that Natalie has already decided, you can start making arrangements. You have
to give her a satisfactory wedding. Back then, I arranged a memorable wedding for your grandmother despite the challenging
circumstances. Think carefully about it tonight. If you don’t want to get married for the third time, use your brain”
Trevon was left speechless.
Caleb chimed in, “That’s right. Since the date has been set for next month, and this month is almost over, there isn’t much time
left until your wedding. Hand over the company’s matters to me for the time being. Just focus on preparing for the wedding.
Make sure everything goes smoothly without any unexpected issues.”
“Okay, Trevon said.
The entire family subtly and gradually allowed decisions to be made based on Natalie’s preference. This made her feel
embarrassed, but at the same time, she was touched again. Her heart felt warm.
