Turning Of The Tide

Chapter 507

Before Ava could come out of the bathroom, there was a knock on the door. Frank did not continue speaking and went to open the door.

Outside the door, Joseph handed over a cup of warm water with honey and instructed, “Let Baby Ava drink it. Don’t let her walk barefoot on the ground. If you have the time, look up on the internet what to do.”

Frank took the hot beverage from him and replied, “Okay.”

Joseph politely withdrew and went to the parlor, where the parents of the Turner family and the Roberts family were chatting and playing chess.

After a while, Ava came out. Her small hands were still tidying up her clothes. “I think I heard my brother’s voice just now.”

Frank placed the warm water with honey on the bedside table and went to help the little girl. He asked, “Yes. Are you feeling okay? Drink this cup of warm water with honey first.”

Ava sat down by the bed, picked up the cup, and drank it. Frank went to the dressing room.

“Frank, what are you looking for?” Ava was puzzled because she was wearing pajamas. Frank had also taken a shower before he went out. His pajamas were still on the bed.

The room was heated, so there was no need to wear thick clothes. It felt like spring in here. The entire villa was maintained at that temperature.

Just as Ava was feeling puzzled, Frank took out a set of pajamas and handed them to Ava. “Change out of your nightdress and change into this. Don’t catch a cold.”

Although he did not have a deep understanding of this area, he knew that she needed to keep warm.

“Be good, Baby Ava. If you catch a cold, you won’t be able to go anywhere.”

“Alright. You take the cup. I’m going to change.” Ava obediently handed the cup to Frank. She picked up the pajama pants and

put them on. Frank walked out of the room. Actually, Ava was no longer shy. She could change her clothes while the lights were on.

After such a long time with him, she had become inured to it.

Outside the door, Frank waited for the little girl to come out. He held the cup in one hand and leaned against the door. Naturally, he thought that she would still be shy and not like to change her clothes while the lights were on.

The door opened. Ava wanted to say that she was no longer shy, but in the end, she leaned close to Frank’s ear and said, “You can help me change next time.”

After saying that, she leaned back and smiled. She even winked playfully. Frank’s eyes darkened, but there was nothing he could do. He sighed helplessly and could only hold the little girl’s hand as they went downstairs. “Let’s go. Let’s go to the parlor to take a look.”

After successfully teasing him, Ava’s face was filled with pride. “Alright.”
