Turning Of The Tide

Chapter 415

After hanging up the phone with Rose, Frank gave Grace a call and told her everything that happened.

However, he withheld the fact that Edward used to like Natalie from her.

From Frank’s tone, Grace guessed that he had already investigated everything. Since she had promised not to interfere with Rose’s relationship, she had to keep her word. After some discussion, both of them agreed to behave as usual and to pretend not to know anything about it.

Grace instructed Frank to keep an eye on Rose and not let anyone bully her.

William listened quietly to the conversation by the side. He finally understood what had happened. Earlier in the day, he had told the Turner family people that Rose did not have to get married. He was happy to support her for a lifetime. What he did not expect was for Rose to get into a relationship.

Now he had to cat his words.

Grace noticed William’s puzzled look but merely opened a document and started working. She asked nonchalantly, “Rose is dating someone secretly. You’d better pretend you don’t know anything

“That boyfriend of hers appeared out of nowhere. Isn’t he from the Landor family? Haven’t we met him before”

Indignant that Rose had been taken away. William regarded Edward with hostility. He used to have a good impression of Edward, but now he realized that Edward was not as nice as he thought.

Although he was very unhappy, there was nowhere for him to voice his displeasure.

Grace said calmly, “Well, Rose likes him. There’s nothing you can do. It’s no use getting angry. You sound so convincing when you are persuading others, yet now you can’t control your emotions.”

William felt saddened and hurt by the news.

At William’s persistent questioning, Grace had to tell him everything that Frank had told her. Both William and Grace now knew how Edward tried to get close to Rose and how she fell for him.

As expected, the Roberts family was most concerned about outward appearance.

Meanwhile, after hanging up the phone, he noticed that Ava was still fixated on their throats. She touched her neck and then proceeded to touch his throat to make a comparison. She seemed to be tickled by that.

Her eyes were clear and unclouded. She was busy examining their throats with a curious yet serious expression.

Frank felt uneasy. When Ava’s hand touched his throat, he sensed that she was teasing him unconsciously. He stared at a fixated Ava and asked. ‘Is it that fun?”

“Well, now I know why everyone describes one’s throat as sexy. That’s because it’s really sexy”

“Baby Ava, do you know what you’re doing?” Frank’s voice sounded hoarse.

Ava was so naive that she did not sense any impending danger. She continued to touch both their necks, still trying to figure out the difference between the two. She tilted her head in an adorable manner and examined them. “Look at my neck. It feels so smooth. Touch here…

Just then, Ava’s lips were sealed with a kiss. Frank stopped her from talking. Initially, she was bewildered. Slowly, she closed

her eyes.

Ava raised her head, eager to accept the love and desire from the kiss. Frank was like a vampire who could suck a girl’s vitality dry to replenish his energy.

The more he kissed her, the more excited and hungry he became.

Soon after, their pajamas were tangled up together. Their cheeks were tinged with a faint blush, and they were panting heavily. Frank asked in a hoarse voice, “Should we turn off the lights?”

“Yeah” Ava nodded, burying herself in his chest, clinging to him like a koala. Frank got up to turn off the light.

In an instant, the room was pitch dark. They could only see each other’s faces from the faint light outside the window. Feeling ravenous like a hungry wolf, Frank said in a sultry voice, “Baby Ava, let’s have a revision.”
