Turning Of The Tide

Chapter 49
After Natalie left, Trevon was not in a good mood.
It was already past three in the morning when Trevon felt a little sleepy. He hugged her and fell asleep in a daze. Now that he
woke up at seven, he only had four hours of sleep.
Trevon propped himself up and wanted to send Natalie to the hospital, but she didn’t appreciate it at all. At the thought of this,
Trevon remembered the sweater from last night.
It was also because Natalie was in a hurry to go to work in the morning that Mary had prepared a new set of clothes for her last
night. Otherwise, Natalie would definitely have found her clothes lying on the floor.
This woman was constantly drawing a line between herself and Trevon.
Trevon’s eyes were cold as he tidied his already meticulous suit and prepared to leave the Wilson’s residence.
Theo could tell that Trevon was unhappy. He was secretly delighted. “How about having breakfast with me? Why are you
standing there like a statue?”
Reluctantly, Trevon followed Theo into the dining room.
Theo picked up the bowl and took a sip of nutritional soup. Then, he picked up another hotdog and ate it slowly. Theo had no
intention of saying anything to Trevon.
Trevon, on the other hand, ate tastelessly. After drinking a bowl of soup, he stopped eating.
Theo was in a good mood when he woke up early. He ate slowly. It was unusually delicious. After eating, he crossed his arms
and leaned against the back of the chair. He looked at Trevon and said, “Tell me what your thoughts are now. Your marriage
deadline with Natalie is about to expire. There are less than two months left, right?”
Trevon pursed his lips and remained silent.
Theo looked at his silent grandson and ignored his feelings. Theo continued, “I have thought it through. Since your marriage
deadline is about to end and the two of you haven’t cultivated any feelings for each other, as your mother said, a marriage
without feelings is the grave of

love. Besides, it’s cold. So when your contract expires, and you want to
get a divorce, I won’t stop you. After all, feelings can’t be forced. Probably, you are not a good match.”
Trevon couldn’t help but roll his eyes. Then why didn’t Theo listen when he told him that they were not a good match?
Seeing that Trevon continued to remain silent, Theo felt even happier. “Before Barron died, he entrusted me with protecting
Natalie for the rest of her life. I definitely have to fulfill my promise to him. Moreover, our entire family has to keep this promise.
Even if I die, you still have to fulfill it. Therefore, I’ve thought about it again and again. After your divorce, Natalie will be alone. I
can’t let Barron down. I plan to wait for your divorce in two months and hold a banquet to let Natalie become one member of our
family as my granddaughter.”
This sentence successfully aroused the silent Trevon. It was as if someone had thrown a stone into a calm lake. Trevon
suddenly raised his head and carefully observed the expression of Theo. “Grandpa, are you serious?”
Theo had a serious expression on his face. “What do you think? I’m already planning to hold a banquet to take her as my
granddaughter. Do you think I’m joking?”
Theo interrupted Trevon, who was about to say something. “Don’t think that I’m using this method to provoke you. Let me tell
you. I’ve already discussed this with Gage the day Barron passed away.”
Trevon objected. “Grandpa, do you think it’s appropriate for her to be your granddaughter?”
Theo lied in all seriousness, “What’s inappropriate about it? It’s a secret marriage between you two. No one knows that you’re
husband and wife. After your divorce, Natalie will be my granddaughter. The quality of the husband I choose for her is
comparable to yours. Don’t think that just because you don’t like her or anyone else, no one would like her. Perhaps after the
divorce, the people who were wooing her could circle around Athana. With my granddaughter’s qualifications, she can be with
any high–quality man.”
Trevon had never been so passive before. He was rendered speechless and could not find any reason to refute.

Gage, who was standing at the side serving them, added firewood and hurriedly said, “Yes, Mr. Trevon. After Barron passed
away that night, Mr.

Theo went to pay his respects. At that time, there were only Mrs. Natalie and two servants. The scene was very cold. Seeing
Mrs. Natalie alone. made our hearts ache, so that night, Mr. Theo made this decision. He had long planned to acknowledge Mrs.
Natalie as his granddaughter.”
Speaking of that night, Trevon recalled that his grandfather had called him. What did Trevon say at that time? In any case,
Trevon had rejected Theo quite bluntly. He did not even go to the funeral the next day. Theo had asked Trevon to pick up Natalie.
He had sent Jim to go.
Back then, Trevon wholeheartedly believed that Natalie was a scheming
woman.
No matter how Trevon looked at her, it was an eyesore.
Theo sighed and said, “That’s right. Natalie was taught very well by Barron. She’s kind and not greedy. Moreover, she has good
morals. For example, when I asked her to play chess with me yesterday, ordinary girls would come up to me and suck up to me.
However, she didn’t even let me repent and even lectured me.”
This sentence successfully made Gage smile. “Mr. Theo, how many times did you cheat yesterday? You deliberately probed Mrs.
Natalie!”
Theo patted the butler beside him. “You’re smart. I was trying to see if Natalie would turn a blind eye, suck up to me, or if she
was loyal. However, I didn’t expect Natalie to be so stubborn and directly expose
me.”
Trevon was extremely annoyed by their words. He picked up the phone. on the table and stood up. “Grandpa, I’m going to the
company.”

This time, Theo did not stop Trevon and shook his head helplessly.
Looking at Trevon’s back, Theo sighed again. “This child is outstanding in everything, but his EQ is lacking. He doesn’t
understand. He always feels that he can control everything and doesn’t allow others to control him. His personality is too
domineering. If he misses this opportunity, where can he find a good wife like Natalie?”
Gage agreed with this point. “Mr. Theo, you have a discerning eye. Take it slow. Mr. Trevon will understand. Weren’t you helping
him just now? I think Mr. Trevon is interested in Mrs. Natalie.”
After Natalie left, Trevon’s expression turned gloomy.
Theo couldn’t stop smiling. “You are so cunning. Nothing can escape

Chapter 49 your eyes.”
At the entrance to the Athana Hospital.
The two of them met at the entrance. However, Natalie got out of the Wilson’s residence’s car, and Sherri got out of the Landor
family’s car.
The two of them looked at each other’s car. Natalie knew what Sherri was going to say. “Stop. I’ll confess myself. You don’t have
to imagine.”
“That’s more like it. Have you had breakfast yet? You still have 21 minutes.” Sherri raised her arm and glanced at her white
watch.
“Yes, I ate it in the car. It was prepared by Mr. Wilson. You don’t have to look at me with such suspicion. It’s exactly what you
think.”
Sherri followed Natalie as she saw that Natalie was going to the office. Sherri pulled Natalie back and pulled her to the cafeteria.
“Come and have breakfast with me.”
“Have you fired your nanny?” Sherri had to come to the hospital every day to eat or let Natalie take the breakfast for her.

“I have been eating my nanny’s cooking since I was young. I’m tired of her food. I want to change my taste every now and then.”
“You’re so picky.”
“Alright. I am picky, but so what?” Sherri ordered the signature breakfast in the hospital cafeteria and pulled Natalie to sit down.
As Sherri ate, she raised her chin and gestured for Natalie to start.
“Last night, Mr. Wilson asked me to stay at the old residence. I was too embarrassed to refuse. Coupled with the fact that Trevon
helped me that night, I agreed. Then, in the morning, the Wilson family’s driver sent me over. That’s all.”
Sherri was still unsatisfied. “That’s all? Natalie, are you joking? The two of you stayed in separate rooms at the Wilson’s
residence last night?”
Natalie did not believe that they could sleep in separate rooms when they stayed over at the Wilson family. If they did, the others
would definitely laugh at Trevon.
“That’s not it. We slept on the same bed, but we did nothing. You don’t have to imagine the rest.”
“You’re not joking, right? Are the two of you really adults? One is a

Chapter 49
handsome man, and the other is a beautiful woman. Don’t tell me that when you slept in the same bed, you chatted with the
ceiling at night? Are the two of you sure you’re healthy? Do you want to check if there’s any hidden illness in the afternoon?”
Natalie threw the tissue beside her hand at Sherri and glared at Sherri. “You’re the one who’s sick. I told you long ago that he’s
not interested in me. Moreover, he personally said that he was not interested in me the day before yesterday.” Natalie enunciated
the last sentence word by word, afraid that Sherri could not hear her clearly.
“Tsk. Is Mr. Wilson blind? Or does he like men? He was so calm when such a beautiful woman was lying beside him. I have
reason to suspect that he likes men.”
Natalie gave Sherri a thumbs up. “You’re right. Please eat quickly. We’re going to be late.”
