Chapter 482
Chapter 482
Ava and Frank were back in the next room.
Ava did not sleep when she returned to her room. She had said that she was tired because she did not
want to disturb Rose and Edward’s private time. She was pretty energetic after catching up on sleep in
the morning. Moreover, she wanted to build her palace as well.
She took out the palace set, and every part of the bag was individually packaged. She chose a small
bag and poured the pieces on the table. Frank sat on the ground beside her to help unwrap the parts
and look at the instructions.
Frank patiently read the instructions carefully, and his eyes were fixed on the paper as he pondered.
He pinched the back of Ava’s neck. “Baby Ava, let’s start from the foundation and keep going, alright?”
“Do you want to do this first? Alright, I’ll find out what this area needs first. Then, we’ll piece it together
according to the instructions.”
Ava looked at the pieces and made her own arrangements, which were orderly, organized, and neat.
Her slender hands were already rummaging through the pieces on the table to find what she needed.
This was the first time Frank had done such meticulous work since he was born. Ava might be the only
one in this world who could make him sit and build a palace. In the past, when he was in school, he
had never handed in his homework for art classes.
He patiently picked up the paper with instructions and helped Ava find the pieces one by one. “Let’s
have some rest after an hour, alright?”
Frank cast a quick glance at the intricate tasks at hand, realizing how straining they were on the eyes
and neck, making it unsustainable to keep one’s head down for long.
Even Ava couldn’t endure it for long. She had already been assisting Rose for an hour and politely
responded, “Alright.”
The two of them cooperated silently, and neither of them spoke. Ava lowered her head and stared at
the pieces in her hands, afraid that she would make any mistake. Frank, on the other hand, held the
pieces in his hand and handed them to her. From the beginning, his eyes had been fixed on her face.
After putting part of the palace together, Ava looked up and happened to meet Frank’s gaze. She was
not embarrassed and said with a smile, “Do you think I will become more beautiful if you keep staring at
me?”
Frank still did not look away. Instead, his gaze was still fixed on her as he smiled faintly. “You can’t be
more beautiful,” he said.
Ava had a genuine smile on her face, for Frank had started to learn how to say sweet things to her. She
changed the topic, “I think Edward really takes care of Rose. What do you think, Frank?”
Frank did not affirm his approval. “He is fine so far.”
way
Ava Turner nodded, understanding that true kindness wasn’t a fleeting gesture but rather a sustained
commitment, like the his. parents treated each other, the way his sister and her husband took care of
each other. Short-term interactions couldn’t provide a definitive assessment, but based on their current
interactions, it appeared that Edward was treating Rose quite well.
Ava hoped that Edward would treat Rose with love, kindness, and respect forever.
“Frank, are you jealous seeing them getting married? If you want, we can get married whenever you
want.”
Frank’s friends were already married. Hackett, his brother-in-law, and Rose were already married. Ava
felt that their relationship was actually the same as marriage. It was just a piece of paper, so she would
be more than willing to do the paperwork if Frank fell left behind.
Frank didn’t think so. “Don’t worry about others. I’m not in a hurry. Let’s wait until you graduate.”
“Alright then, Frank said reassuringly as he tenderly ruffled Ava’s head. It meant both comfort and a
genuine assurance that everything was fine.
He wouldn’t mind if they only had one kid in the future, for he did not want her to suffer too much.
Besides, he was willing to wait and also wanted to bring her back to Athana to register their marriage.
At night, the four of them sat on a ship of Haililand and enjoyed a seafood feast. Meanwhile, the
fishermen in front of the huge ship were fishing for seafood.

reminded her, “Let’s

keep it low-key tonight.”
“Come on! I am just sharing my happiness! I want to send her the picture. What do you think?” she
asked Edward.
“Sure, but I still suggest you post it,” Edward advised. Sherri might send messages of complaint or
even call if she received the photo. Posting it was a more standard approach and wouldn’t provoke
much resentment.
Sending the picture might come off as showing off, especially since she still could not move freely. It
might make her envious.
Ava nodded and suggested, “Why don’t we keep a low profile and not post anything online?”
Three to one, a complete defeat. “Alright, I will only send you guys the picture then. It’d be bad if they
have an argument.”
Frank said, “Trevon would never have an argument with his wife. She is his queen. As for Hackett and
his wife, I am not that
sure.”
After Frank had meticulously peeled all the seafood, he lazily leaned back in his chair, gazing at the
endless expanse of the lake. He casually inquired, as if it were an idle thought, “Where are you moving
after going back then?”
Rose was dumbfounded and did not understand his words. “What… what do you mean?”
Ava did not interrupt and ate quietly the entire time, for she knew that Frank actually did not want to be
away from Rose.
Edward immediately understood Frank’s question. Intelligent people pick up on the nuances of
conversation within seconds, and he took the initiative to answer, “Once we’re back in Athana, I’ll pay a
visit to your parents. If they approve, Rose will come with me.”
With this explanation, Rose understood. Her brother was asking her when she would move out. He
probably couldn’t bear to part with her.
She was very pleased, but she also could understand his feelings. Her relationship with her parents
had been pretty.. complicated in the past, and it only improved recently. To be honest, she could not
bear to not see Grace or William for a week or a month.
She looked up at Frank and said, “Don’t worry. I know you can’t bear to part with me. After I return to
Athana, I’ll first bring Edward home to visit Dad and Mom. We’ll stay there for a night, then we’ll go to
the Landor family for a night. Fair enough, right?”
Rose continued to make arrangements. Edward didn’t disturb her and felt that it was quite suitable. As
he had said, she was in charge of the family. “In the future, I plan to stay at home on Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday. On Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, I will go to stay with the Landor family. I
haven’t thought about Sunday yet. Anyway, the plan sounds fair. This way, I can guarantee that you will
see me three times a week.”
Frank pretended to look at his sister in disdain, but he felt that Rose had arranged it quite well. At least
she was pretty thoughtful. “You’re not that important.”
Just as Rose was about to refute his brother’s stubbornness, Edward said, “We’ll stay at our own place
on Sundays. From Monday to Saturday, I will follow Rose wherever she goes.”
“Do we have our own place?” Rose asked in confusion as she turned to look at Edward.
Edward was afraid that Frank would misunderstand that he had arranged for Rose to stay in Evergreen
Gardens, so he explained, “I bought another villa beside villa the Landor family. It’s already renovated.
I’ll bring you to have a visit when we get back to Athana. We’ll stay there on Sunday.”
“That’s so sweet! I am sure he has planned this idea for Rose a long time ago,” Ava thought.
Frank’s expression softened at Edward’s answer, and his lips curled up slightly after he learned that
Edward was quite organized. He had bought the villa for quite a while, and it was renovated. Rose was
lucky to find such a husband.
After hearing Edward’s words, the usually carefree Rose blushed. It was a blissful blush. She leaned
close to Edward’s ear and whispered very gently, “Did you buy the villa for us?”

Edward explained without hesitation and did not plan to hide anything. “Yes, Rose’s face turned even
redder. With a faint smile on her face, Ava rested her chin on her hands as she looked at the adorable
couple..

that they were going to have their own house.

Apparently, her parents’ villa was not big enough for her.
Rose knew that her brother was also excited for her, but he did not say it out loud. She had clearly
seen his brother smile just now, but very quickly, he looked indifferent again. “I am very excited! If you
also buy a villa for Ava, she will be thrilled as well. Am I right, Ava?”
Ava held her cheek and shook her head. “We’re not buying a new house. We’ll live in the Roberts
family from now on

would only be bodyguards, maids, Grace, and William left at home. It would be very empty, and the big
villa should be filled with people’s waves of laughter.
Even Edward looked up at Ava. Age did not always have something to do with maturity. For example,
Ava was pretty young, but she was a very mature woman.
Rose then gave Ava a thumbs-up and remarked to her brother, “I really don’t know what good deeds
you’ve done to find such an excellent girl like Ava.”
Ava said, “Because Frank is a very kind person.”
Rose suddenly leaned over, and her words dripped with a coquettish tone. “Edward is also a very kind
person.”
“Cough, cough, cough, oh god.” Edward choked on his drink, accidentally taking a sip at the very
moment Rose talked to him in such a tone. It sent shivers down his spine, catching him entirely off
guard.
Frank was amused by her sister’s actions. He smiled and looked at Edward, thinking this man would
suffer in the future. His sister would come up with funny ideas from time to time. He found Rose more
outgoing than Baby Ava, but Baby Ava was
more mature.
Ava thought, “Rose and Edward’s way of interacting is so special. Nonetheless, they seem to be
getting along very well. She is the one being funny, and he just takes care of her all the time.”
Rose commented, “Alas, is Edward serious? I have to train him so he can be more used to my jokes.”
It was after twelve by the time, they got back to the hotel, and the four of them went back to their own
rooms.
“Night, night. I’ll be going back to Sapphire City with Frank tomorrow. Edward, Rose, enjoy your trip.”
Ava felt that they were disturbing this newly-married couple.
“What? Are you leaving tomorrow? You should stay for a few more days.” Rose had completely
forgotten that Ava had to go back to work.
Frank felt that his sister was even more silly after getting married. “Baby Ava is a holiday. She has to go
back to work, okay?”
“Oops, I’m sorry, I forgot that. Alright, see you soon then, Ava. We’ll go to Sapphire City to visit you
soon.”
Rose slapped her forehead.
Ava would leave tomorrow morning. She planned to stay with Frank at Turner Manor for a day.
“Goodbye. Have a good trip,” she politely bade farewell to Edward.
Edward, “See you soon! Good night!”
Frank wasn’t the type to say goodbye at every turn. It was too exhausting. So, he pushed Ava and
walked straight into their
room.
On the other side, Rose was also brought into the room by Edward, but she even had a look of pity on
her face. “Alas, what a pity. They’re leaving tomorrow. How fun would it be if they could stay for a few
more days with us? The more the merrier.” Edward asked, “I am not fun enough for you?”
“You are, but it’s different. It’s… oh, how should I put it? It’s the kind of atmosphere where you can have
a blast. I am having fun with you, so don’t overthink it. I cannot live without you. You’re important to
me.” Rose patted his shoulder to reassure
him.
Edward did not know what to say.
It was just a simple question, but Rose seemed afraid to hurt his feelings.
