Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)

Chapter 179

Chapter 179

During lunchtime at noon, in a certain ward of Athana Hospital, Natalie Foster and Sherri Landor were

eating in Lena’s

ward.

Trevon Wilson had arranged a VIP ward for Lena. The ward interior was very spacious. Natalie was

eating at the coffee table with Sherri. When Natalie turned around and saw that Lena hadn’t touched

her food, her eyes turned slightly red-rimmed. She stood up and walked over to help Lena eat her food.

“Godmother, what’s wrong? Is it not to your liking?”

Natalie had ordered this chicken soup en croute before she went to work. She went to get her order as

soon as she came out for lunch. The taste should be fine. She had seen good reviews for it.

Lena said with tears in her eyes. “When did 1 earn the right to have a daughter like you in this lifetime?

I have truly benefited from a misfortune.”

Sherri turned around and said. “Lena, just accept Natalie. Isn’t it great to have another daughter?”

This time, Lena did not demur anymore. In truth, she wasn’t really demurring. Lena had been serving

others her entire life. Now that she was sick, the person she was serving had turned around to serve

her instead. How could she not be touched?

Lena was very agitated. Her hand that was holding the spoon was trembling. A crystal clear teardrop

fell onto the pastry top of the soup. She scooped a spoonful of pastry and soup and put it in her mouth.

It was very tasty. This was the tastiest soup she had ever eaten in her life. “Sigh! I accept. She had to

treat Natalie twice as well in the future. Such a child was too hard to come by.

Fortunately, Jasper was line. Otherwise, what would she do?

Other people did not know how hard it was for Natalie, but Lena knew. Natalie had no parents since

she was young. When she was bullied at a young age, she had to learn to fight back by herself. When

she returned home, she would always conceal the bad things that happened and only report on the

good things that happened.

And there was Jasper. When Lena thought about how both she and Jenny had met with mishaps, she

wondered what happened to Jasper. “Who’s taking care of Jasper now? Is she reliable? Is it alright to

leave the child with her? Does she have any experience!”

Natalie looked at Lena who was lying on the bed covered in injuries but still kept thinking about Jasper.

She had asked four questions in a row. “Don’t worry, Godmother. He’s doing very well. I think he’ll be

able to dominate the world in a few days.”

“Huh?” Lena didn’t understand what Natale said.

Natalie smiled and did not hide anything. She wanted to reassure Lena. Natalie knew Lena would not

be at case if any unfamiliar person took Jasper away. “Jasper is at his father’s place. He’s very safe

and is very well taken care of.”

In order to put Natalie’s mind at ease, Trevon Wilson asked his mother to take a few photos of Jasper

playing and send them to Natalie Jasper was indeed very well taken care of

Likewise, to put Lena’s mind at ease, Natalie took out her cell phone and showed Lena the photos of

Jasper playing. After looking at the photos, Lena was indeed very relieved. The corners of her lips

curled up. “Jasper seems to be quite happy.”

Natalie thought, “How can he not be happy? He is living like a Crown Prince every day. Everyone is

fawning over him. You have no idea how much love is showered on him.”

In fact, Natalie was a little worried that they would spoil him too much and when the child came back,

he would be out of control.

Lena didn’t know which cursed fellow could be so ruthless as to want to kill a child. How could he bear

to kill Jasper, who was so adorable? “Miss… Natalie, is it safe for you to go to work now?”

Natalie knew that Lena was worried and said light-heartedly. “It’s safe. I still have self-defense skills,

don’t I can still fight against ordinary thugs.”

Sherri mocked Natalie in her heart, “The Landor family’s eight bodyguards were defeated by you, yet

you still say that you are only good enough to handle ordinary thugs. You’re really humble.”

Lena was full after eating half a bowl. Natalie offered her some apple slices. “Eat more. If you feel

uncomfortable when Im not around, just summon the doctor.”

She turned to the caregiver who was busy working and said, “What’s your name?”

The caregiver was a young lady who was about the same age as Natalie. She had been busy working

ever since Natalie and Sherri came in. It was obvious that she was quite diligent, which made Natalie

feel much more at ease.

“Just call me Mel. Miss Natalie, feel free to instruct me if you need anything. Mr. Jim Hawk has already

given me his instructions. I will take good care of Lena” Her attitude was assiduous and sincere. There

was no trace of scheming in her eyes. Her eyes were clear and pure.

“Thank you for your hard work. Just call me if you need anything.” Natalie read out her cell phone

number to Mel

The caregiver saved the phone number into her phone’s address book and said politely, “Sure.”

When Natalie saw Mel saving the number under the name “Miss Natalie,” she suggested, “You can call

me Natalie”

The caregiver smiled. Then I address you as Dr. Foster then. Lena says you are a doctor here.”

“That’s fine too.” Names were only appellations, to begin with. Natalie didn’t mind how she was

addressed.

Natalie and Sherri were about to clear the table when they were stopped by the caregiver. “You’re all

good people who treat and save people. Let me do this. This won’t take long. I’m very fast in carrying

out my work.”

Lena began to praise the caregiver. “This young lady is especially diligent. She doesn’t talk much, but

she’s honest. She does whatever she’s asked to do. She’s not afraid of getting dirty or getting tired at

all.”

Lena could tell that she was truly a young girl who knew how to get things done. She did not have any

distracting thoughts. Whoever married her would have a lot less to worry about.

“Lena. I’m leaving. Call me if you need anything. My cell phone is always on” Ever since this incident,

Natalie had changed her habit of keeping her cell phone on silent mode or even switching it off totally.

The first thing she did when she woke up in the morning was to check whether her cell phone was fully

charged and whether the ring volume was turned to the

maximum.

However, when she was working, she would still switch her cell phone to vibration mode. Her cell

phone would be placed at the corner of the desk so that she would not miss any calls again.

Sherri also bade Lena farewell. “Lena, I’m leaving too. I have to get back to work soon. I’ll come and

visit you another day. If you need anything and Natalie is busy, you can look for me too. It’s the same

whether you look for me or her.”

Lena hurriedly nodded and voiced her affirmation repeatedly. She told them to go to work quickly and

not to visit her if they were busy.

After walking out of the door, Sherri held her best friend’s arm and asked, “Why did you send Jasper to

the Wilson’s residence! If you don’t want to, I can actually get my mother to help take care of him. He

can even keep Ruby company.”

Natalie sighed. She turned her head and said solemnly, “My dear friend, would you believe me if I said

that I only found out after the child has been taken to the Wilson’s residence?”

Sherri looked surprised. “Is Trevon Wilson that despicable? How can he do that?” Initially, Sherri had

changed her opinion. of him quite a bit. Now, she had to deduct his brownie points.

As the two talked, Natalie was about to explain this matter when her phone rang. It was a call from Jim

Hawk. “Hello”

“Mrs. Wilson, the Turner family’s bodyguard has regamed consciousness. This news was the best

news for Natalie. Finally, there was divine justice in this world after all. She was finally able to put her

mind at ease.

Natalie quickly walked to the ward that Jim mentioned in his closing comments. When she saw that she

still had some time before starting work, Sherri also followed her. Although Ethan White did not have

much interaction with Sherri, he was still the Turner family’s bodyguard and she was indebted to the

Turner family. I’ll go with you”

When they arrived at the ward, Ethan was so weak but he still wanted to speak. Natalie knew what he

was concerned about foremost when he regained consciousness, so she said in advance, “Don’t worry.

Jasper is fine. He’s not injured at all. I’ve already settled him down. Lena is also recuperating. You

should also rest properly here and recuperate. As for my older cousin. I will explain to him. You

probably won’t be punished. I must thank you.”

Natalie explained everything that Ethan wanted to know in one breath.

Ethan had just regained consciousness and his face was drained of color. He would probably be

chased out of the Turner family for failing in his mission this time. He had been careless. “Thank you,

Miss Natalie.”

When she saw that he spoke very weakly, Natalie said, “Don’t talk anymore. Conserve your strength

and recuperate properly. I’m very safe. These two fellows will stay behind to take care of you. You don’t

have to worry about me and Jasper. Your priority now is to recover.” Natalie was prepared to do

something big. She couldn’t let her older cousin find out. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Ethan nodded. This young lady had always been as easy to get along with as Miss Ava Turner. She did

not have the airs of a rich, pampered young lady.

There was still some time before they returned to the office, Sherri was a little worried about her best

friend’s safety. “Natalie, why don’t I add a few more bodyguards for you? I keep feeling it’s unsafe. We

haven’t found the mastermind yet.” “It won’t be so fast. If they dare to do such a thing in broad daylight,

it means that they’ve long concealed everything that can be found by others. It’s definitely not that easy

to dig out clues and the mastermind. It’ll take some time. How can we send them to the slammer

without sufficient evidence?”

Now that things were moving in a positive direction, Natalie felt much better. However, Jenny’s matter

was an emotional knot in her heart. So after this, she would wait for the snake to show itself?

Suddenly, Natalie thought of something. “By the way, what was the matter that you wanted to tell me in

person the last

time?”

“Hmm? What matter?” After thinking for a moment, the realization hit Sherri. “Oh, right. Initially, I

wanted to tell you that I’ll try it out with… Hackett Blackwell.” The last two words were discernibly very

soft. Sherri did not sound very confident and mumbled somewhat incoherently.

Natalie didn’t quite hear her. “Try what?”

In the end, after putting two and two together, Natalie looked at Sherri in surprise. “You two are

together?”

Sherri lowered her head and nodded. She was too ashamed to look her best friend in the eye. Even

without thinking, she knew that her best friend must be very surprised now. She just did not know if her

best friend might despise her and look down on her spinelessness.

After all, she did swear imperiously that she would never take a fancy to this scumbag back then.

Wasn’t she slapping herself in the face by saying that she wanted to try it out with him now?

The room fell silent for a moment before Natalie’s voice rang out. “It’s a pretty good idea.”

Sherri raised her head abruptly as if she had heard something incredible. “Aren’t you going to scold me

for being useless?”

Natalie leaned against the back of the chair. She appeared to have understood something. She stared

at the ceiling and saw nothing but a swathe of white. “In the past. I used to think that I was a

superbeing and that it was enough as long as my son had me. But one day, when my son was playing

with Trevon Wilson, I realized that I couldn’t take the place of my child’s father. Over the past few days,

after Jenny left. Ive thought about it a lot. Life is unpredictable. I don’t know what’s waiting for me

tomorrow, so I should seize every day to be happy now. At least, I can reduce my regrets. If Hackett

Blackwell truly loves you and treats you sincerely, it’s not impossible to give him a try. What if the

outcome is good? It’s better than you looking for someone else to be Ruby’s father”

Who knew what would happen in the future? It was enough to seize the present! It was important for

her to cherish all the people nearby who loved her It was important to live.

By the time Natalie finished talking. Sherri’s face was already filled with shock. Was this still the best

friend who said that men were farty? Do you mean what you’ve just said?”

“Do I look like I’m joking? I’m serious. You and I are the same. Since you can’t decide the future and

can’t control accidents, let nature take its course. Isn’t it good to be happy?”

Sherri felt that the incident this time had a huge impact on her best friend’s mindset. She asked

tentatively. “What about and Trevon Wilson? What are you thinking? I can tell that he really cares about

you and has changed a lot.”

Natalie was silent for a few seconds. I want to wait until we catch the mastermind before discussing

further.”

“That’s fine too. There’s no hurry anyway If he can’t even want for such a short while, we’ll blacklist him

again.” After saying that, Sherri rested her chin on her hands. She appeared to be at a loss, and her

face was frowning. She then sighed heavily and sand. “Natalie. I think I have a good impression of

Hackett Blackwell, but I realized that he doesn’t seem to like me that much. What if I like him during the

trial period and he doesn’t like me

This was the first time Natalie saw Sherri worrying about personal gains and losses. All along, Sherri

had been relatively confident. It seemed that she might have really fallen for that guy “Where’s your

confulence? Where did it go? Aren’t you the type who is loved by everyone and blooms like a flower in

front of people? How come you turn into a wilting blossom the moment you meet Hackett Blackwell?”

Sherri shook her head “Sigh! The point is that he also said that he himself is the type who is loved by

everyone and blooms like a flower in front of people.”

After so much wrangling, it turned out that both of them were narcissists. “Then let’s see which flower

blooms more radiantly. However, you might not be able to compare to Hackett Blackwell if he were to

really strut his stuff like a peacock spreading its tail.*

Sherri was utterly speechless. This chat led to nothing in the end. It would have been fine if they didn’t

chat, but after chatting with Natalie, Sherri felt even more suffocated. Sure enough, she could not

depend on Natalie for love advice.
