Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)

Chapter 176

Chapter 176

Standing at the top of the mountain indeed made Natalie Foster’s thoughts much clearer. The pain in

her heart had also diminished a lot. She released her emotions to nature.

As she listened to the melodious bird chirping and the sounds of nature in the environment, these

musical notes calmed her heart. Every beat was like the rhythmic ticking of a metronome.

Natalie could temporarily forget all her worries, but it was also only temporary.

Trevon Wilson was an eyesore, however. He maintained his languid posture and leaned against the

pillar, but his gaze was fixed on Natalie. He opened his mouth and said, ‘Let’s chat”

It was rare that there were only the two of them. He was greedy and wanted to get closer to her.

Natalie turned around with a slightly puzzled look. She did not know what he wanted to talk about.

“Hmm? What do you want to chat about?”

Trevon quietly moved closer to her and leaned against the railing just one to two inches away from her.

“Why did you choose to study medicine?” Actually, he wanted to ask why Natalie chose to major in

neurosurgery. He remembered that he had asked this question two years ago, but she had no intention

of answering, so he did not persist in probing.

She liked to ride motorcycles and liked excitement. She didn’t look like someone who would like the

profession of a doctor. After a moment of silence, a rare scornful smile appeared on Natalie’s lips. It

was very dazzling. “You want to understand.

Trevon didn’t deny it. From her dazzling smile, he felt that the reason probably wasn’t noble, but he still

wanted to understand. “Yes.”

After saying that, Trevon did not get Natalie’s answer immediately.

Minutes and seconds ticked by. He thought she wouldn’t answer.

After half a minute, Natalie opened her mouth and said calmly, “When I was 10 years old, my mother

jumped off a building and hit her head on the ground. She died on the spot. That image had been

haunting me for more than 10 years. This was also the reason I smoked. I couldn’t tell my grandfather

about my lingering nightmares. Every time I slept, I would wake up with a start at midnight. It was as if

the bloody scene was in front of my bed. After 1 reached adulthood, I gradually developed the habit of

smoking when I was frustrated. It was only when I was pregnant with Jasper that I quit smoking. At that

time, I wondered whether I could have saved my mother if I were a neurosurgeon.”

There was no change in Natalie’s expression as she spoke. It was as if she was talking about someone

else’s family, but every word hit Trevon’s heart until his chest felt suffocated. He did not know that she

majored in neurosurgery because of her mother’s brain injury, nor did he know that she smoked

because she would often recall that heartbreaking scene. He wanted to hug her.

Following that, Natalie asked, “What’s wrong with Mr. Caleb’s leg?” She remembered that there was

something wrong with Caleb Wilson’s leg, but they were in a contractual relationship at that time, so

she did not probe too deeply. Now that the two of them were asking each other openly, she decided to

ask out of curiosity,

“A traffic accident. When I was a teenager, he had just taken over the Wilson Group when he got into a

traffic accident. At that time, the doctor had already determined that his lower limbs were paralyzed. It

was my mother who refused to give up and accompanied him to Sapphire City for treatment. He has

recovered now

After hearing this, Natalie had a trace of doubt in her heart. However, when she saw that even Trevon

himself did not suspect anything, she thought she was probably thinking too much.

If there was really a problem, Trevon would not have simply said that it was a traffic accident. He would

have found the mastermind long ago.

It was getting windy. The wind at the top of the mountain was stronger than the wind at the foot of the

mountain. When Trevon saw that Natalie was only wearing a thin dress, he sensibly took off his suit

jacket and put it on her. “Put it on. The wind is a little strong.”

It was indeed quite cold. Natalie did not refuse his gesture and simply put it on. Trevon was more than

6 feet 2 inches tall, and the jacket looked particularly loose on her. She looked as if she was acting in

some circus act.

At the same time, when she wore his jacket, a strange feeling surged in Trevon’s heart. “Are you cold?

If you are, let’s go

back.”

“Let’s go back. Let’s go to the hospital first.” She wanted to bring dinner to her godmother.

Trevon came to a conclusion. As long as he paid attention, he could guess what the woman was

thinking. He roughly knew what she was going to do. “Jim Hawk is standing guard over there. You don’t

have to bring her dinner. Don’t you have to work tomorrow? Have a good rest tonight.”

When they returned to Evergreen Gardens, Trevon followed Natalie into the room. She did not stop him

as if she had tacitly consented.

It felt like déjà vu, just like husband and wife returning home together.

As he walked into the room. Trevon spoke up first, “Jim will be here to deliver food later. What do you

want to eat?”

Natalie felt a little sorry for Jim. He had worked quite hard after that sudden incident. He had to run all

over the place and now he had to deliver food.

“Anything is fine. I’ll take a shower. You…”

When he saw that his clothes were a little dirty after returning from the cemetery and going to the top of

the mountain, Trevon thought he needed to change. Tll go home and take a shower first. Give me the

door key.”

After Natalie gave him the key, she went into the room to take a shower. She did not turn on the hot

water. Instead, she turned on the cold water. As the cold water hit her face, her thoughts became much

clearer. She thought about how she should plot to locate the mastermind and how she could make the

mastermind attack again.

The colder the water was, the clearer her thoughts became Soon, a plan was born.

Natalie picked up her cell phone and sent a message to Elena Foster After that, she simply waited for

the result.

Although she did not save this number, the memory of this number was still fresh in her mind. After her

mother left, Elena Foster wanted to start with Natalie to try and convince Natalie’s grandfather to

accept Elena. She would call Natalie every few days. It was most likely because Natalie kept ignoring

her that she did not hold on to any hope. After that, Elena did not. call Natalie again. Without realizing

it, Natalie had memorized this number.

About ten minutes later, Trevon opened the door and came in Natalie came out wearing a conservative

pajamas and her hair was still dripping wet.

Trevon stood at the entrance to change his shoes and could not help chiding her. “Why didn’t you blow-

dry your hair?”

Natalie had prepared these slippers for her older cousin. It was just right for Trevon to wear them now.

“I just finished showering Then she asked, “Are you going on a business trip soon?”

Trevon raised his eyes and met Natalie’s gaze. He seemed to understand immediately and shook his

head. “Go blow-dry your hair first and then eat. Jim has already delivered the food to the hospital and

also hired a caregiver.”

Natalie’s heart ached for Jim again. This meal was sent by Jim, which meant that he had to go to the

hospital after sending the food here. It was really hard on Jun, the lowly fim.

It was not easy working for others.

While feeling heartache for Jim, Natalie went into the bathroom to blow-dry her hair. When her hair was

half dry, she came. out and sat at the dining table. She gathered the cutlery and got ready to eat. She

could only fight monsters after she was full. No matter how unhappy she was, she had to eat first.

Trevon laid out the dishes and ladled a bowl of soup for Natalie. Then, he went straight to the

bathroom. After a while, he came back with a hairdryer in his hand and pulled her to the sofa. “Eat after

drying your hair. If you don’t dry your hair, you’ll have a headache the next day.”

These words inevitably made Natalie a little baffled. Since when did he even understand such common

sense? “Have you been reading any books recently?”

Trevon rubbed his nose with a guilty look and his eyes were a little evasive. “Am I that free?”

Natalie thought, “Are you sure? Why do I get the misperception that your EQ is unbelievably good?”

Would a divorce turn a chauvinistic and condescending man into a warm-hearted man? Over the past

few days, Natalie had been bombarded by Trevon’s gentleness and she had almost fallen into the love

trap. Their relationship now was a little complicated. They didn’t look like a couple, yet they were a

couple.

Natalie wanted to blow-dry her hair herself, but Trevon seemed to be addicted to helping her blow-dry

her hair. He insisted. on helping her. In the end, Trevon was the one who blow-dried her hair.

After the two of them had dinner, it was Trevon who cleaned up. Natalie sat on the sofa and watched

him busy himself in the kitchen. She was in a daze. It never occurred to her that the day would come

when this arrogant and conceited man actually did housework and he was even helping her with the

housework.

It would be quite nice if he carried on like this.

Actually, the marriage Natalie wanted was very simple. Mutual love with no extramarital affairs. There

could be conflicts but they should not carry over to the next day. She didn’t like to guess. Everyone had

different thoughts, and it was very difficult to guess the other party’s true thoughts. For example, it was

impossible to guess anything from Trevon’s usual expression that showed no emotion.

The purpose of the message from the unfamiliar number in the morning was to make Natalie have a

breakdown. She had indeed broken down at that point, and the person who sent the message had also

achieved the effect that he desired. However, Natalie was alive now. She did not collapse after her

mother left, and when her grandfather left, she also did not collapse. Now that her godmother had left,

likewise, she would not collapse.

Between humans and demons, Natalie felt that humans were scarier. As long as one didn’t do anything

wrong, one would not get tormented by demons. However, humans were different. If a person lived a

good life, another person might get envious. If the first person lived a miserable life, the second per son

might smile and flaunt lus wealth. Didn’t jealousy and scherning originate from humans? It wasn’t easy

to see through the thoughts of a bad guy.

This time, regardless of whether he was a human or a demon, Natalie had to catch him. She would

reconsider her relationship with Trevon after everything was settled.
