Turning Of The Tide

Chapter 321

At 12:30 in the afternoon, the sun was scorching hot. The dazzling fireball hung high in the sky, emitting heat that made one’s back burn. The dazzling light forced one to subconsciously lower his head.

The temperature of Earth rose slightly. They could still smell the cement smell of Earth being roasted by the sun. In any

case, it was hot.

Frank’s tall figure stood on Ava’s side, blocking most of the heat for her. He raised the bag high above her head with one hand to block the dazzling light.

“I’ll send you back to your dormitory, Frank suggested.

“What about you? Ava thought. “Was he going back? Back to the hotel?”

Meeting her expectant gaze, a certain part of Frank’s heart softened. “Tll wait in the car. I’ll accompany you to class in the afternoon”

In just two seconds, Ava followed her heart. She knew that Frank could not stay in Sapphire City forever. He might go back the day after tomorrow or tomorrow. She wanted to cherish their hard-earned time together and did not want to waste it.

“I’m going to sleep in your car. Her eyes were firm, not taking no for an answer.

“Alright.” Frank lowered his head and looked at her for a few seconds before giving in.

He was still holding his bag to shield her from the sun. Soon, the two of them arrived at the side of a Porsche car in the parking lot. He opened the door of the driver’s seat and the back seat. He started the car and turned on the air conditioner. He spread a spare shirt on the back seat and reminded Ava, who had just gotten in, “Don’t close the door yet. Let the heat. dissipate first.”

“Oh.” This was the first time she had taken Frank’s car since the last time they went to the island. Previously, Rose was there, but now there were only the two of them.

The temperature dissipated for about five minutes before Frank closed the car door and rolled up the window. Instantly, the tightly sealed car darkened, and not even a trace of scorching light could penetrate.

Frank, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, turned sideways and looked at Ava, who was in the backseat. “Sleep for a while.”

Ava was a little sleepy, but she wanted to sit in the front passenger seat and not so far away from him. “I want to sit in the front.

She had always mentioned whatever she wanted. She didn’t want to pretend and say that it didn’t matter or she didn’t want it. It was against her conscience.

Frank glanced at the front passenger seat. It was not suitable for sleeping. He opened the back seat because he thought that there was more space for her to lie down

Since she liked the passenger seat, he could only arrange it. Frank directly put the passenger seat down and adjusted it to a

comfortable size.

Without another word, he pushed the door open and got out of the car again. He opened the backseat door and sent Ava to the front passenger seat while blocking the sun. After she got in, he gently closed the door.

He walked around the front of the car and sat in the driver’s seat again. He leaned over and took a light green blanket from the back seat and placed it on Ava’s knees.

“Cover it up and lie down to sleep for a while.”

Ava thought that if she slept, he would be bored alone. She lay on the chair and tilted her head to ask, “What about you?”

“I’ll sleep with you for a while. I’ll sleep in the driver’s seat.” He originally wanted to say that he would sleep with her, but he was afraid of scaring her, so he added this sentence at the end.
