Turning Of The Tide By Diana Sander Novel -
Chapter 538
Chapter 538
Everyone was busy with their own lives. As they were busy and fulfilled, they found their own world.
Just like that.
Natalie went to work at the station. Joseph sent many professionals from Sapphire City to assist his sister in her work. He even carefully reminded Trevon to prepare a chair of the same model as the Wilson Group.
After Sherri’s maternity leave ended, she began to go to and from work with Rose. Although Natalie was not with them anymore, it did not affect their relationship. During lunch, the three of them ate while video-calling.
They would share with each other which dish tasted better and which dish they would not get next time. The number of times they contacted each other was even more frequent than before.
Compared to them, Stella was indescribably miserable. Every day, she cried and screamed as Leia pushed her forward. She wanted to retreat, but before she could complain to her sister, her sister would criticize her. Thus, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and continue forward.
When Stella returned home, she would vent her dissatisfaction on Chris. It was all because he did not care about the company that she suffered so much.
On this day, the good news that everyone was looking forward to arrived as promised.
Christina, who was far away in Sapphire City, shared the good news in Natalie’s group chat immediately: [Family, I’m pregnant.]
The group/chat was very quiet.
Perhaps everyone was at work and did not have much time to look at their phones and slack off. Meanwhile, Stella, who was hiding in the toilet, was so excited that her hands were trembling and she almost dropped her phone into the toilet. Fortunately, she was quick to save it.
After holding the phone firmly, Stella pressed it against her chest and took a deep breath. [Christina, really? Really? Really?] Christina replied: [Yes, really. I found out this morning. I’m still at the company. I’ll talk to you guys after work.]
She just wanted to share this good news with her sisters, and also because she was really happy. Her period came late, and the meticulous Joseph had prepared a pregnancy test kit at home long ago. When she went to the toilet in the morning, Christina casually tested one and found that it was two bars.
No one from the Turner family dared to be careless. They directly asked Joseph to bring her to the hospital for a blood test In the end, it was confirmed that she was pregnant. However, Christina still requested to work. Joseph allowed it but reduced her workload.
During lunch break.
Sherri and Rose went to the canteen to eat. On the way, the two of them met. Rose had the habit of reporting to Edward about her breaks. Just as she took out her phone and was about to send Edward a message, she saw Christina’s message in the morning. She grabbed Sherri and said, “Oh my god, Christina is pregnant. Does Joseph drive a rocket?”
“Let me see. Is this for real? That fast?” Sherri leaned closer to Rose’s phone screen to take a look. “Tsk tsk. How many miles per hour was he going? Joseph is really quick.”
Rose came back to his senses. “Damn, if this is the case, isn’t my brother the slowest? His long journey to love with Ava hasn’t ended yet. When our child is old enough to go to school, my brother’s child will probably still be biting his pacifier.”
Sherri patted Rose’s shoulder and advised, “Think about Chris, and you’ll feel much better. There’s still someone at the bottom.”
“Have you noticed that the food in the canteen has returned to how it used to be? What do you think happened? The pizzas are gone. When I see the director next time, I’ll need to talk to him.”
“You’ve noticed it too. I’ve also noticed that the food quality has decreased by a few degrees. On the other hand, the food at Natalie’s place is extremely good. Let’s go there another day.” Rose thought of going to the station to freeload.
At the station.
Natalie had just followed a few seniors out of the operating theater. As she walked, she listened to the seniors analyzing special cases.
“Natalie, let’s go to the cafeteria to eat,” A colleague said.
“Alright, I’ll go to the office to get my phone first. You guys go ahead.”
Natalie returned to the office that Joseph had prepared for her. It was very warm. There was a lounge inside as well, which was a small suite with everything.
She picked up her phone and was about to put it in her pocket. She still did not have the habit of carrying a bag. Her pocket vibrated. The message was from Sherri. After Sherri finished lunch, she agreed with Rose’s suggestion to go to the station for
a free meal. Firstly, she wanted to play with her best friend, and secondly, she wanted to relive the happy time when the three of them ate together.
Sherri: [Natalie, are you working this Saturday?]
Natalie replied as she walked: [There are no special patients who need surgery this week. I might not come to the station. Why?]
Sherri: [I miss the old canteen. I want to freeload at your place.]
Natalie only heard them say that the food in their canteen was not delicious. She thought that Sherri’s pallet had been enhanced during her maternity leave. Thus, she replied: [Is the food in the canteen that bad?]
Sherri replied firmly: [Yes, it doesn’t taste like our pregnancy at all. It’s similar to the culinary skills we complained about a few years ago. You’ll know when you try it another day. I seriously suspect that the director called the chef home.]
Natalie: [Keep your imagination to yourself. We’ll see how it goes the day after tomorrow.]
She exited the chat with Sherri. There was also a message in the group chat. She clicked on it and read it. After reading the message, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. At this moment, a colleague passed her by and asked, “Natalie, what are you so happy about?”
“My sister-in-law is pregnant.”
“That’s indeed something to be happy about. Congratulations.” The colleagues in the station were especially nice. There was no jealousy or gossip.
Everyone knew that this station belonged to Natalie. However, on the first day she came to work, she repeatedly emphasized that everyone should not treat her as their boss. She would be happier if they treated her as a colleague.
The employees also liked Natalie’s straightforward personality. They did not avoid talking to her about anything and even pulled her along to chat occasionally.
To be honest, Natalie liked this kind of work atmosphere very much. It was very relaxed, and there was no need to scheme.
“Thank you.”
At the Yamin family’s villa.
At this moment, Angie was happily cleaning the living room. In a great mood, she cleaned the stairs so well that it became reflective. Even a fly would probably slip and fall on it. She hummed a little song. “Lucky me, lucky you…”
Ever since Leia arrived, Charlie’s workload had decreased. She was even more capable than his daughter and was especially hardworking. According to the employees’ reflection, she often worked overtime until midnight before returning home.
“Did you call your daughter? Stop humming. You’ve been humming for hours.” Charlie, who was sitting on the sofa, turned to ask his wife. His head was buzzing from the humming.
“I called. Joseph picked it up. He told me not to worry and said that the test showed Christina is very healthy. Do you think Christina is pregnant with a boy or a girl?”
“How would I know? I’m not a prophet. Be it a girl or a boy, they’re all treasures that fell from Christina.”
“That’s true. You’re finally ahead of William for once. Are you happy?”
What did she mean by ahead of William for once? Why did these words sound so unpleasant?
However, Charlie did not think too much about this sentence.
Now that Angie brought it out, it finally occurred to Charlie. He was so occupied by the happiness that he had completely forgotten. He finally had the chance to show off, so how could he not call William? The next moment, he picked up the phone on the coffee table and immediately called William.
Obviously, William was at the office today and seemed very busy. “Charlie, what is it? I’m busy.”
Charlie did not care if William was busy or not. He only cared about showing off. “I’m telling you that Christina is pregnant. They just called us, and Joseph informed us. I wanted to share it with you.”
How could William not tell that Charlie was showing off? This was how the two friends usually competed. “Alas, are you here to show off? One kid or two?”
Charlie said truthfully, “One. Tell Frank to work harder. Otherwise, my grandchildren will be all over the place, and you won’t even have one.”
William was especially calm. He was signing with one hand and Holding the phone to his ear with the other. “You don’t know this. Frank is preparing for it. The main thing is that it’s not that easy to give birth to twins. As for you, since it’s one child, it’ll be faster, right?”
Charlie did not expect William to say that. No one knew what would happen in the future, not to mention knowing if Christina would give birth to twins unless it was grown in a lab. William sounded like he was the one whose child was pregnant. “Hey, let’s see if you can carry twins by then. I’ll wait.”
William still replied in a firm tone, “Just wait and see. When the time comes for you to give gifts, it will be double.”
After hanging up, William grinned. Charlie did not get the upper hand.
Meeting Grace’s gaze, William explained with a smile, “I had to, okay? I can’t admit defeat. I had to fight back.”
Grace couldn’t be bothered with his childishness.
Soon, it was Saturday.
Due to the fact that Sherri really missed the station’s cafeteria, Natalie could only bring Jasper to the station to wait for her starving best friend.
In the hall, Jasper held the new toy his father had given him. It was a new remote-controlled plane. He skillfully operated it and flew it in the hall. The employees all praised him for his skill.
Not long after, Sherri and Rose appeared with Ruby in their arms.
Seeing Ruby appear, Jasper slowly lowered the plane. When Ruby walked to him, he pressed his lips and generously handed the remote control to her. Ruby called out softly, “Jasper.”.
Jasper simply said, “Hmm.”
Then, he added, “Do you want to play?”
Ruby nodded, but she did not know how to play. Jasper took the initiative to pick up the remote control and lower the speed for her to see. He considered this as teaching her.
Sherri, who had been watching from the side, was satisfied with his future son-in-law. “My future son-in-law is not bad. Look at how cold he is now. Under his coldness, he has a meticulous heart. Look at Ruby. He took the initiative to teach her without her having to say anything. Look at how bright her smile is.”
“That’s enough. How old are they? Aren’t you tired? Sit down and rest for a while. It’s not mealtime yet.”
Natalie glanced at her best friend with disdain.
Then, he looked at Rose’s stomach. It was very flat and did not change much. Natalie asked again, “Which one of you drove
the car?”
Sherri said, “Isn’t that obvious? Me, of course. I made a pledge to bring my brother’s precious daughter out today.”
Her best friend’s driving speed was indeed very suitable for a pregnant woman like Rose. It was as slow as a turtle.
Rose sat down on the sofa and looked around. “Natalie, your brother really dotes on you.”
Natalie was usually not busy. When there were no special surgeries, a few seniors would study cases together, and Natalie could study with them. In her free time, she could also compete with a few seniors to sew pig skin.
“Yes, Frank treats you well, too. It’s just that his mouth is unforgiving.”
“His mouth is too foul. Other than that, he’s quite nice.” Rose thought of how good her brother was.
With a bang, the plane that had just flown up fell from a high place because of Ruby’s improper operation. Ruby was about to cry because she saw the plane fall apart. Sherri wanted to take a look, but Natalie stopped her.
Natalie believed that her son would be able to handle it well.
Theo was afraid that Jasper’s emotional intelligence would be the same as Trevon’s, so he had started to educate him in this aspect very early, including dealing with these small matters.
As expected, not only was Jasper not angry, he even took a tissue from the table in the hall and handed it to Ruby. He said simply, “It’s fine. Daddy will fix it.”
Ruby still felt embarrassed and apologized, “I’m sorry, Jasper.”
Jasper took out a lemon candy from his pocket. “Don’t cry. This is delicious.”
“Thank you, Jasper.”
The three people sitting on the sofa looked at this little boy with their mouths agape. Sherri could not help but praise, “Not bad. This emotional intelligence is much better than Old Trevon If Hackett breaks Old Trevon’s treasure today, they’ll definitely fight.”
Natalie smiled. She expected her best friend to say this. “Grandpa taught him. Grandpa was afraid that Jasper would become the second Trevon, so he paid special attention to Jasper’s emotional intelligence. The same goes for my mother-in-law.”
Rose put a hand on her stomach and laughed out loud. “How low is Old Trevon’s emotional intelligence? It’s like the entire family is traumatized.”
“You can use your imagination. He used to be like a literal robot.” Natalie smiled and asked Rose to let her imaginations run
wild.
Sherri nodded at Rose, agreeing with Natalia.
Rose wondered, “What kind of person would have such low EQ?”
