Chapter 554

Trevon’s words had no hidden meaning. It was because Natalie was the chef at night. It had been a long time since he had eaten Natalie’s dishes. It was rare for Natalie to cook. He had overeaten at night and ate salty food.

He just wanted to drink some water.

However, Trevon usually had a hidden meaning in his words. He consciously made everyone feel that his words were abnormal.

For example, the story of the boy who cried wolf. Telling too many lies could make people doubt the truth. Even when it was told, people would inevitably suspect him, and his credibility would be significantly reduced.

Hackett was still struggling with the problem of the card. It was evident that Trevon had diverted the question and deliberately did not explain. “You didn’t give me a supermarket card, did you?” asked Hackett. “You’re having trouble with the supermarket card. If you have nothing to do, read the dictionary more to expand your vocabulary,” said Trevon.

Trevon took a few sips of soda water and glanced at Hackett in disdain.

Edward went to take a look at the child. He came out of the room and closed the door for Grace. Then, he pulled a stool and sat beside Rose.

Natalie explained to Hackett kindly, “This is the Athana Building’s One-Card Pass customized by Trevon for the child. With this card, you can make purchases directly at every counter in the Building Athana. You don’t have to apply for membership in every specialty store, nor do you need to charge money.”

Upon hearing this, Hackett directly said, “Damn, isn’t this playing favorites? Why wasn’t it when I was born? Why wasn’t it when our Sherri was born?”

Frank smiled after listening to Natalie’s explanation. With Trevon’s personality, it couldn’t be custom-made for a child. It was probably something that had been available a long time ago, and some might have been custom-made for his wife.

Frank was right.

Trevon indeed customized it for Natalie. With Natalie’s personality, she preferred to keep things simple and didn’t like dealing with the hassle. On the other hand, all the counters in all the luxury shops in Athana

Building needed to get cards. Ten shops had ten cards. It was too troublesome for Natalie.

Trevon ordered Jim Hawk to procure six One-Card Passes to make it easier for Natalie to shop. This was an unprecedented card. Currently, there were only six cards in the entire Athana. The first card was given to Natalie, the second card was given to Rachel, and the third card was given to Emma the last time she came to Athana.

Rose suddenly realized the actual value of this card, which was worth a lot of money. It glowed in her palm, and she covered it against her chest, saying, “Oh my god, Trevon. I just realized how handsome you are today. I won’t pick on you anymore.”

Edward did not expect Trevon to be so generous. One had to know that in a specialty store, different amounts need to be recharged to reach the highest star level. If it was universal, how much would it cost?

Although the entire Athana Building belonged to him, he still had to charge. With Natalie’s personality, she wouldn’t buy things in the name of Trevon.

What was certain was that it was a substantial amount of money.

Trevon did not say anything. Natalie, on the other hand, smiled and let Sherri reminisce. “Do you need me to rewind it for you? It’s one to two. I’m just reminding you out of kindness,” said Natalie.

Rose was so happy that she did not feel sleepy and began to answer actively. She was highly enthusiastic and said, “I know the answer. This is an additional question. It’s one to two. I’ve suffered a huge loss so that we won’t exchange gifts. Sherri, I’m sorry. Let me be tacky for once.”

Sherri and Hackett were instantly speechless recall the lines. This was because they were too wise at that time and said that there was no need to send each other off.

A few saw that the couple had thought of it and laughed simultaneously.

Ultimately, Trevon looked at Hackett’s dark expression and sneered.

“Don’t look like you want to jump off a building. Natalie will give it to your wife tomorrow.”

Natalie had a look of pity on his face. She spread his hands and said,

“Trevon has long been prepared. It was you who said that you didn’t want it. We can’t force it on you.”

Sherri remained silent and felt somewhat hasty.

Hackett started to prepare his flattery, but Trevon stopped him. “You’d better shut up. I’m afraid of wasting soda water,” said Trevon.

Alright, whatever the financier said, as he was so generous. When he took someone’s things, his hands and mouth were limp as if they were paralyzed. He could not say anything unpleasant at all. He could only say good things.

Money had such an effect. It was especially magical.

Few of them stayed for more than an hour. After all, Rose was a pregnant woman who needed to rest. In addition, it was already very late. There were still children at home, so Natalie and Sherri went back.

Ava and Frank were the only ones still sitting on the sofa and looking at their phones. No one knew what they were looking at.

Rose handed the card to Edward as if it were a treasure and told him to hide it well. It might be worth tens of millions. She said, “Hubby, just hide it. They say one becomes a bit slow-witted during pregnancy, and I’ve just given birth. I’m afraid that I might lose my wits after sleeping. I’m more at ease if you keep it. This is a huge sum of money. I didn’t expect Trevon would be so generous.”

Frank, sitting on the sofa, overheard and said unhurriedly, “No one is eyeing your stuff.”

Rose replied, “I’m not guarding against you. I’m afraid I’ll leave it here when I get discharged. If someone else picks it up, I’ll be gone. This is a limited edition. I don’t think there will be more than ten.”

Frank couldn’t be bothered to argue with his sister anymore. They were close, so he had no choice but to remind her patiently, “I think you’re already stupid and have become a bit slow-witted. This card is registered in your name, and it has a password setting. Is it confidential even if you deposit a huge sum of money in the bank?”

His words enlightened her. As expected, it was as if a light bulb had gone off in her head. She couldn’t believe she hadn’t thought of setting a _password.

This was a mistake.

After saying that, Frank continued to look at his phone with Ava. Ava

Edward was also surprised by this card. Back then, after Natalie gave birth, although she and Rose had given her double gifts, it still couldn’t compare to this card.

Trevon had indeed made a grand gesture.

Edward said, “Okay, then I’ll keep it in my wallet. If you want to use it, get it directly from there.”

Rose replied, “Okay, okay. I’m rich, sudden riches from the heavens. I’m happier than winning the lottery. Of course, I’m not such a materialistic person. Even if I accept gifts, it depends on the person. I’m just being kind. I’m afraid I won’t be able to sleep with so much money.”

Edward reminded, “He has three children.”

Frank commented, “You could write a whole TV drama based on this reasoning.”

Ava added, “This excuse sounds a bit lame.”

Rose said excitedly, unwilling to admit defeat, “What’s the big deal with having three kids? I wasn’t making things up. What’s the matter with that? In the future, I might even have four, five, six, and…”

Frank and Ava remained silent as they didn’t want to engage in this conversation. They knew it was going to be endless. If they continued chatting, it would be a football team.

Just as Rose was about to count down, Edward sat on the edge of the bed and stopped. The number soared. Edward said anxiously, “Rose, that’s enough.”

“Don’t worry. I’m just throwing out a random number. It’s not like I can give birth to seven or eight kids. If I can, you won’t be able to handle it by then,” said Rose.

Noticing Edward’s dark expression, Rose retracted his tongue. “No, I didn’t say that you cannot handle it. It’s just that our bodies determine it. I didn’t mean you can’t handle it.”

He felt that he could not explain it clearly.

Frank already felt that his sister’s brain was on the fritz, and she was talking nonsense. He was unprepared to listen to their daily conversation and brought Ava into the room. He said, “You guys continue, We’re going to sleep.”

Rose waved at Ava and said, “Good night.”

Edward knew that she didn’t mean he couldn’t handle it, but he didn’t

intend to continue discussing where he couldn’t do it. “I know. Do you want to sleep for a while? The child is going to be fed again later. Take a nap,” said Edward.

Rose continued, “Alright, but I must still analyze this matter for you before I can sleep. I’ll tell you. You’re already pushing thirty. If I give birth naturally, I’ll need at least a year to recover. According to a year and a half, four will take six years, which is even faster. If there’s an additional year, you’ll be almost 40. The quality will deteriorate. Your genes will not deteriorate, so at most four. I don’t plan to have more.”

Rose counted with her fingers. She looked severe as if she was solving a math problem.

Looking at his wife, who was seriously calculating, Edward was amused. He thought she was thinking for a moment and would forget about it in a few days. In the end, she was serious and could not refuse. Hence, he disagreed. “Got it. It depends on the situation. The plan can’t keep up with the changes. Let’s sleep first,” said Edward.

“Alright, you should get some rest, too,” replied Rose.

“Sure, you go to sleep first,” Edward covered her with the blanket and carefully tidied Rose’s collarbone hair. He was highly doting and leaned over to kiss her forehead.

Looking at Rose, Edward couldn’t help but want to kiss her.

In the room, Ava and Frank were still looking at their phones. Ava was laughing uncontrollably. “That’s too funny. I tried to hold in my laughter outside because I feared scaring Edward, but I couldn’t help it. Hahaha.”

Frank whispered, “Shh.”

Ava whispered like a thief, “Oh, keep your voice down. We’ll wake the baby up later.”

Frank asked her to be quiet, not because he feared waking his nephew up but because he feared Rose would see her sneaking a peek at her phone.

After looking at it for two hours, her phone was slightly hot. Frank reminded Ava to take it and asked, “Are you hungry?”

“Yes, I think so. Why don’t we go out and eat? If we order takeout, I’m afraid Rose will be jealous. She can only look at what I want to eat,” said Ava.

Ava analyzed.

“Sure, wear your coat,” said Frank, as it might be windy outside.

The two of them went out. The little guy had fallen asleep again after being fed. Newborn babies spend their time sleeping.

Their sleep duration would gradually decrease as they grew older.

Seeing that Frank and Ava were holding hands and preparing to go out, Rose, who had finished feeding his son, asked, “Where are you guys going?”

Frank asked in response, “You can still go with us?”

The rhetorical question made the restless Rose choke. A moment later, she said, “Don’t tell me you guys plan to eat something delicious?”

Ava was sincere. “Yes, I’m a bit hungry. We’re preparing to go foraging. Edward, are you hungry? We can bring something back for you.”

Grace came out of the room after washing up. She was prepared to see her grandson before going to bed. “Are you going out to eat?” asked Grace “Yes, Grace, are you coming? What would you like to eat? We can buy it for you,” Ava said with a smile.

“I’m not hungry. You guys go ahead and eat. Take your time,” replied Grace, as she did not have the habit of eating supper at night.

Occasionally, there would be, but it was rare unless she worked overtime until midnight.

Just as Frank and Ava stepped out the door, Rose said sternly, “You have to buy it home to eat. I’m hungry, too. Buy me another serving of potato soup with tomato strands. It doesn’t have to be too salty. Just like the taste of Grace that I bought.”

Frank wanted to take off his shoes and beat them up. She didn’t want them to eat separately. He glared at his sister and said, “Is there anything else you want to eat? You’d better explain it to me in one go.”

Edward suggested, “How about I go and buy it? Rose, text me when you’re ready.”

“Stay here. I’ll go. Watch her and stop causing trouble. Think about it and -send me a message,” said Frank as he glared at his sister again and led Ava

out.

Grace returned to her room and sent a message to his son, telling him where to buy the soup. At the same time, she also told Frank that they had hired an expensive chef who could make it anytime.

Rose got her way, and she was ecstatic. She wriggled on the bed, just shy of breaking into a dance. She didn’t look like someone who had just given

birth to a child.

Edward didn’t say anything about her either. She was highly indulgent.

Rose thought that it would be satisfying to watch them eating even if she could not eat it.
