Turning Of The Tide

Chapter 369

Trevon Wilson went to the bathroom for a shower after dressing his son. Since Natalie had already taken hers before that, she took over the chore of looking after Jasper.

Natalie lay on the bed and read a picture book to Jasper; she moved the cot next to the bed to keep an eye on him.

Jasper lay quietly in the cot with a toy in hand as he listened to Natalie telling a story; it was his favorite pastime.

After a short while. Trevon walked in wearing gray silk pajamas with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows. He carried a basin of warm water in his hands.

The muscles on lus arms were all tense because of the water weight. He looked charmingly manly.

Natalie put down the picture book and fixed her gaze on Trevon. No one would have thought the wealthiest man in Athana would wash his wife’s feet at home and massage her every night.

No one would believe it even if words got out.

Trevon placed the basin at the foot of the bed and fetched a small stool to sit on. He looked like he was ready to do his chore. “Natalie, come over. Ill massage your fert,” he said lovingly.

Natalie slowly got out of bed and walked to the end of the bed to sit down. She took off her shoes and slowly put her feet in the water. “Is the water temperature okay? Trevon asked softly

“It’s just nice. Hey, this is not the same basin from yesterday. Did you buy another one?” Natalie asked, observing that the color was the same, but the material was different.

She did not buy an automatic massage basin because Trevon insisted on serving her personally. He claimed it was his duty as a husband to please his wife.

He gently massaged her feet in the warm water with practiced movements. He explained in a deep voice. “This one retains a constant temperature while the previous one does not.”

The water would soon turn cold and did not serve the purpose. Therefore, Trevon decided to buy a new one instead.

Sitting higher than him on the edge of the bed, Natalie could easily lean over to reach Trevon. She kissed him gently on the forehead

Touched by Natalie’s show of love, Trevon lifted his head and returned the favor, kissing Natalie on her lips.

Meanwhile, Jasper heard the sound of water and was about to get up and join in the fun. Before he could lift his chubby legs. out of his cot. Trevon stopped him ‘Lie down. little man!” he ordered.

Jasper pouted with dissatisfaction. He tried to take advantage of the recent good vibes with his father but failed terribly. He glared at Trevon and lay down obediently.

Trevon was provoked when he saw his son glaring at him. “Your temper has flared recently, you little rascal. It looks like you. are itching for a good beating,” he threatened.

Natalie laughed. That’s because he knows you love him too much and won’t hit him. He’s a very observant little boy”

Meanwhile, Frank Roberts dragged his sister home after receiving the message about Ava.

The dumbfounded Rose Roberts wandered around the living room with her hands akimbo while pacing back and forth.

She was puzzled, wondering what was wrong with her brother.

Frank walked hurriedly to the staircase and stopped in his tracks. He turned around and called out to Rose, who was still pacing in the living room, “Can you take leave tomorrow?”

“What? Why? Where do you want me to go?”

Rose’s hands were still on her hips as she looked at he brother on the stairs.
