Turning Of The Tide By Diana Sander Novel
Chapter 705

Jasper was also reluctant to leave this studio. This was where they started, but he had already thought of how to deal with it. "Renovate it. We'll treat this stuas the first shop and buy the few shops next door. Let's make a big one." There was a sofa, a bar, and a storage room in the studio. They were all just what the shop needed. They just needed to adjust the layout slightly. In addition, the decoration of the stuwas in a luxurious style, like in a palace.

Most importantly, when the customers looked up, they would see Only RB.

"I'll listen to you. I'll go back and talk to Dad." "Yeah." One hour passed just like this. After an hour, Jasper stood up and helped turn off the lights and close the door of the studio. He held Ruby's hand and got into the car.

"I'll do it myself." Ruby pressed down on Jasper's hand. He was bent over to help her buckle her seatbelt. She wanted to weather the storm together and not just accept his kindness.

Although he said that, Jasper still helped to fasten her seatbelt. Then, he quickly leaned forward and kissed the corner of her lips. "You can reward me." Ruby, who was caught off guard by the kiss, instantly blushed. The blush spread to her ears. She reached out to cover one side of her face in an attempt to calm down. The corner of her mouth was still warm from his kiss. Her heart was still beating happily.

After getting into the driver's seat and starting the car, Jasper turned the steering wheel with one hand and held Ruby's hand tightly with the other. Ruby was still blushing. From the corner of his eye, he saw that she was shy.

He smiled and tightened his grip.

They were halfway through the drive.

Ruby tilted her body and stared at Jasper's handsface. She said awkwardly, "Jasper, if..." She said a few words, but she seemed to feel that the words in her mind were not suitable. She wanted to think carefully again, but at the traffic light, Jasper caught her hesitating to speak. He activated his mind-reading ability. "It doesn't matter when your father completely relents. I've told you. I will only marry you in my lifetime." It was already very good now. At least her father did not ask them to break up. Jasper was only temporarily demoted for further review by her father. Jasper believed that one day he would make her father agree to let her marry him.

A warm feeling flowed through her heart. She was so touched that she felt apologetic. "Thank you. I will only be your wife in this lifetime." The two of them made a promise to each other and looked at each other with a smile. If not for the green light, Jasper wanted to hold the back of her head and kiss her. In the end, he touched her soft little hand and kissed the back of her hand.

His lips were also very soft. The sensation of his warm lips touching the back of her hand was magnified. The blush that had dissipated from her apology instantly spread again.

An hour later.

When the car arrived at the villa of the Blackwell family, it was tfor Hackett to go hfor dinner.

When he wasn't having dinner with Trevon, Frank, and Chris, he always went hto have dinner with his wife and children. When he saw Ruby and Jasper coming out of the car holding hands, Hackett stared at their intertwined hands.

Ruby thought that her father did not like it, so she pulled it back. Jasper's hand was empty, and his heart was also empty. However, he quickly adjusted his emotions and called out politely, "Uncle Hackett." Hackett put on a stance, stuck one hand in his pocket, and replied faintly, "Hello." He could see what happened between them clearly and his daughter's nervousness. "Holding hands is a normal couple's act," he said to them. "I'm not from ancient times." Hearing this, both of them looked at Hackett. Hackett was expressing his attitude in this way. Jasper said, "Okay." Hackett sighed in his heart. Jasper was good in all aspects, but he was too cold. Hackett did not know if his daughter would be bored in the future. Jasper would not say a word a day. How could they chat? At this moment, Hackett felt like he was separating a couple in love. "Alright, do you want to go in for dinner?" After thinking for a while, Jasper still refused. He did not take any gifts with him. "I'll cin a few days." Hackett was so angry that he laughed. Jasper still needed to choose a date? Hackett changed the topic. "Go back and tell your father that we'll have slate-night snacks together tonight. Tell him to bring something good over." Jasper said, "Yes." With that, he got into the car.

When Jasper's car could no longer be seen, Ruby held her father's hand and turned to walk back to the villa.

Hackett could see that his daughter's face was no longer cautious. She looked relaxed now.

After walking a few steps, Ruby gently asked Hackett, "Dad, Jasper askedto go to the company to work. Is that okay?" Hackett's emotions instantly beccomplicated when he met his daughter's gaze. For sreason, he recalled Edward's words. Edward asked him to let Ruby go sometimes and relax. He reflected on himself and said, "Ruby, did I watch you too closely?" Therefore, she did not dare to communicate with him or tell him the truth.

Ruby shook her head and turned around with a smile. "Dad, I'll tell you everything in the future." The tip of Hackett's tongue pressed against his molars. His eyes were a little hot. He raised his hand and wrapped it around his daughter's shoulder, touching the back of her head lovingly.

After a while, Hackett said, "I respect you. If you want to go, go. You can discuss it with the brat yourself. What about the studio?" Ruby did not expect her father to be so easy to talk to. She felt relieved and said truthfully, "The stuhas been bought by Jasper. We plan to slightly modify the stuand make it the first shop." Hearing this Hackett was even more satisfied with Jasper. The brat was quite thoughtful. He no longer doubted the brat's sincerity towards his daughter. "That's a good idea." The father and daughter chatted and laughed as they walked into the villa. When the door opened, Joy walked over quickly and said anxiously, "Son, Sherri seems to be quite seriously ill. I just went to take a look. She covered herself up tightly and said that she was so tired that she didn't want to get up for dinner. She's already slept for a day. Why is she still sleepy? Take her to see if she's pregnant again. You're too insensible. You're already so old and don't pay attention at all." After saying that, Joy felt that her daughter-in-law might be pregnant. She was so angry that she hit her son's arm a few times and even glared at him.

Hackett was speechless. What was going on? Ruby was also speechless. She was going to have a younger sibling now? Wouldn't the age difference be a little too big? The atmosphere was awkward. Everyone's gaze was fixed on Hackett. Even Nathan, who had already walked to the dining room, turned to look.

His gaze was clearly saying that Hackett was insensible, as if he had done something incredible. To ease the atmosphere. Hackett coughed awkwardly. "I'll go up and take a look. You guys eat first." Joy urged, "Hurry up and go." Upstairs, Sherri was still sleeping soundly. She was really tired. After eating the lunch that Natalie fed her, she had recovered a little, but she was still very tired. She had a feeling that she could not go to work for three days.

Hackett pushed the door open and entered. In order to prevent his biological mother from eavesdropping, he locked the door. He sat on the edge of the bed and looked at his wife who was sleeping soundly. His heart ached slightly. He really went too far last night. He wanted her to learn a lesson.

"My dear, it's tto eat." He called her a few times, but she still did not wake up. In the end, Hackett gave up and got up to go downstairs. He planned to serve her sfood later.

Downstairs in the dining room, everyone sat down and waited for Hackett's answer. When he cdownstairs, Joy hurriedly grabbed his arm and couldn't wait to get the answer. "How is it? Did she take the test? Is she pregnant?” Hackett's eyebrows twitched when he heard that. He said helplessly, "Mom, I'm not thinking about having a third child. Can you stop thinking about nonsense? What kind of nonsense is this?" Joy was very dissatisfied with her son's answer. She raised her hand and patted her son's arm again. There was a loud slap. She used much force and it looked hurtful. She appeared that he wasn't her biological son. "If she's not pregnant, why did she sleep for a day? I've never seen her sleep for a day before. Did she catch a cold? Natalie cin the afternoon. She was the one who brought lunch up for Sherri." Hackett was stunned and asked, "Natalie was here?" "Yes, she was here. She said that she had something to talk to Sherri." "Did Sherri finish her lunch?" Joy remembered that the bowls and plates that Natalie brought down were all empty. "Yes. She ate an omelet and a large bow! of swift grain." When Hackett heard from his mother that Sherri finished her lunch, he heaved a sigh of relief and lied, "Then just let her sleep. You guys eat first. When Sherri wakes up, I'll send her sfood. Maybe she didn't sleep enough since she chatted with Natalie in the afternoon." Finally, Hackett successfully changed. The topic of Sherri's pregnancy cto an end. "Dad, are you picking up Liam tomorrow or should 17" Hearing this, Nathan did not answer his son immediately. Instead, he picked up sfood and stuffed it into his mouth. He took a bite and said, "It's my job to begin with. You were the one who insisted on snatching it. Your son doesn't want you to pick him up. I will go." Hackett said unhappily, "He's not happy to seepick him up?" "You're scolding him every day. How could he be willing to see you pick him up?" Joy agreed with Nathan. She chose her grandson's side instead of her son.

As they spoke, someone suddenly cin from the door. Joy was about to say something when she was interrupted by the commotion at the door. She stood up to check, and everyone in the dining room turned their gazes outside.

When she saw who it was, Joy was extremely surprised. She realized that talking behind someone's back was indeed dangerous because she never knew if the person she was talking about might suddenly show up. "Liam, isn't today Thursday? Why are you back by yourself?" Liam was carrying a black backpack on his shoulder. He patted his backpack and said, "Grandma, I'm missing a set of clothes. I'm here to get my clothes." "Grandma, leteat first. I'm starving." At this moment, Liam was extremely hungry.

The others in the dining room were also confused. Before Hackett could ask, Joy had ordered the maid to take the plate and fork over. She prepared her grandson soup and dishes as if he hadn't cback for a long time.

She really doted on her grandson.

Ruby asked her younger brother, who was sitting beside her, with suspicion in her eyes. "Didn't you prepare five sets of clothes before you went to school? Are you done wearing them?" Liam was comparatively pretentious. He liked to wear different clothes every day and was flashy. His clothes were either red or orange, orange or light pink. White was the most normal color. Black clothes never appeared in the wardrobe, just like how his hair was always dyed.

Speaking of hair, Hackett realized that his son's hair seemed to have been dyed again. He frowned and said, "Did you dye your hair again?" As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes began to look at the top of Liam's head. Liam raised his head confidently and pointed at the top of his head with a fork. He asked everyone, "How is this color? Ruby, does it look good?" Liam was taller than Ruby. She looked up and reached out to touch it. She expressed her truest thoughts. "It's alright, but I really don't recommend you dye your hair anymore. Your hair looks like straws because you've dyed it too many times." Liam felt that it was alright. He reached out and grabbed his hair. "This is different, Ruby. You can dye your hair once a year since you have long hair, but I'm a man. I can't keep long hair. Dark hair will appear in half a mouth.

It's ugly to have two different colors on my head." Hackett glanced at the messy curly hair in disdain. Liam's hair was really in a mess. He wanted to use scissors to cut it. "I thought you slept with a sheep last night and were kicked in sleep by a sheep." Joy was amused by his son's words. Then, she praised, "Your hairstyle looks good. It's very special." Hackett thought, 'l remember the first tI dyed my hair, my mother chased afterwith scissors and insisted that I dye it back.’ The difference in treatment was too obvious.

Liam also felt that it looked good and was very pleased with his new style. He said, "This is the most popular hairstyle recently." In fact, the initial color Liam chose was more flamboyant. He was afraid that his father would not allow him to enter the house after his hair beclike that, so he could only choose a more normal color.

It was very difficult for Nathan, who never dyed his hair, to understand his grandson's preference. He remained silent and ate quietly.

Hackett rolled his eyes at his son and couldn't be bothered with his son. Right now, he was thinking about how to coax Sherri later.
