Turning Of The Tide

Chapter 316

On the way to the airport. Frank halted the car at an open space not far from Turner Manor.

Rose observed her brother deftly maneuver the car into a parking spot using one hand and inquired, “What are you up to?”

Ignoring Rose’s question, Frank retrieved his phone from the central console and typed a few words on the open chat interface. Then, he exited the app after typing and dialing a number. Once the call connected, he instructed. “You can proceed now

Rose was utterly perplexed by this sequence of actions and speculated. “What on earth is he doing? He isn’t setting off explosives, is he Curiosity piqued, she questioned once more. “What’s your plan? You…”

Betore she could complete her sentence, a sudden explosive sound erupted, overpowering her voice. A spectacular burst of fireworks shot swiftly into the sky, instantly illuminating the darkness

The interior of the car, previously dim, now glowed brightly with the radiance of the fireworks Rose’s gaze fixed on the night sky, where the colorful explosions lett a briet yet dazzling imprint against the dark canvas

Overlapping memories flashed through her mind. It was the scene of Trevon confessing his feelings to Natalie on the island not long ago. At that time. Trevon had ignited fireworks for Natalie. Ava was envious of that proposal. As Rose admired that moment, she had made it sound like she had arranged it for Ava

A sudden realization dawned on Rose. Her mind raced. Surprised and playfully, she swatted Frank, who reclined lazily in his seat and gazed at the fireworks above. “Geez, you’re quite strategic. So, you overheard everything that night. You arranged this for Ava tonight because she envied the fireworks on the island, right?”

Frank tapped the steering wheel with one hand and leaned against the car window with the other, responding, Pursuing someone is a man’s affair What’s a girl doing meddling with it?”

For reasons she couldn’t quite fathom. Rose found Frank incredibly impressive-domineering yet charismatic.

Rose contemplated. “No wonder Cranky Franky said he’d take the first 99 steps towards her in the future. So, this is what he meant- a touch of male chauvinism. But it’s alright, after all, he is my brother”

Meanwhile, a passionate encounter was unfolding in a room at Turner Manor. Prioritizing quality and gentleness, two people were engrossed in their realm of ecstasy.

However, their cuphoria was abruptly interrupted by the loud sound of fireworks a few minutes later. Trevon frowned and glanced at the gap in the curtains. The bursts of light occasionally pierced through the cracks, disrupting their climax.

With her vision blurred, Natalie suggested. “Aren’t you going to close the curtains?”

Annoyed by Frank’s antics. Trevon clenched his teeth in irritation and muttered. “This Frank guy sticks to a script, following a set routine. He is copying what I’ve done before. He lacks originality. Let Ava hang on a bit longer. It’ll toughen him up.”

At this instant, Natalie’s delicate appearance reflected the softness of spring rain, her cheeks tinged with a sheer flush, her hues perfectly harmonized, chimed in with a hoarse and soft voice. “You’re exacting your revenge here. Go and close the

curtains.”
