Turning Of The Tide By Diana Sander Novel
Chapter 706

After dinner, Liam and Ruby leaned close to each other in the living room. Liam was sharing interesting things about school with Ruby. Joy was sitting at the side watching television, listening, and occasionally joining the conversation. Nathan stayed aside, listening quietly.

Joy and Nathan were very happy that Ruby and Liam were close.

Compared to the harmony downstairs, the atmosphere upstairs was not as harmonious. It was a little like a world war. The blanket and pillows were thrown to the ground.

The battle was still ongoing. Sherri threw herself onto the bed because she threw the pillow forcefully. Hackett, who was hiding by the door frto avoid the pillow, saw that his wife had fallen. He quickly walked to the bed and picked Sherri up. He hugged her and apologized in a low voice, "I was wrong. I was wrong. I was wrong, okay?" Hackett turned his face sideways and said in a playful tone, "Why don't you hitagain to vent your anger? Hithere. I promise I won't fight back." He pointed at his cheek and went all out.

As he spoke, Sherri struggled to raise her hand. She did not want to be hugged by him. When she saw his handsface, she suddenly could not bear to hit him. In fact, last night, Sherri thought that Hackett was quite manly actually. He was especially domineering and suppressed her everywhere. She complained, "Hackett, you don't care aboutat all. I think your love forhas reached its limit." "Are you kidding me? Wasn't my love last night deep enough? It's already as deep as the sea. I was wrong, alright? I promise there won't be a next time." Hackett raised his hands and swore, making a surrendering gesture.

Sherri's heart softened. She was in the wrong in the first place. She pouted her lips aggrievedly and said coquettishly, "Dear Hackett, I was wrong. Please forgive me." Hearing this, Hackett suddenly held her chin and kissed her hard. Sherri had just recovered senergy. She raised her hand and hugged Hackett's neck to kiss him. Just as the two of them gradually lost control, the door of the room was opened and closed.

It was very fast.

The people in the room parted their lips. Before they could see who cin, Liam, who was outside the door, realized that he seemed to have been too careless. Ruby followed behind him, so she did not see her parents inside. She asked, "What are you doing?" Liam scratched his neck in embarrassment. As a big boy, his neck began to turn slightly red when he saw his parents making out. "Um, um... Dad might be a little busy. I'll ask him later." Ruby glanced at the closed door and looked at her brother suspiciously. She asked with concern, "Why are you looking for Dad?" "My pocket money is gone." Liam smiled and scratched his neck in embarrassment.

"How much did you use to dye your hair?" Hackett was afraid that his son would beca wastrel. He carefully planned Liam's pocket money. 3 thousand dollars a month. He never gave Liam more.

1,600 dollars? Liam used half of his monthly pocket money in just one week. Ruby thought that Liam should have no money now.

Ruby knew her younger brother well. Not only did he not have enough clothes, but he probably went hbecause he did not have any money. "Could it be that you borrowed the taxi fare?" As expected, Ruby really knew Liam well. Liam smiled awkwardly. He first stretched out five fingers and then put one of them down. "I only borrowed 40 dollars." Ruby hit her younger brother's arm. She felt helpless. "I really don't know what to say about you. Let's go. How much do you want?" Liam eagerly followed his sister to her room. He walked quickly. He stood at the side and raised a finger to answer his sister how much he wanted.

Ruby looked at the raised finger and guessed that her younger brother definitely did not want 200 dollars. "Two thousand dollars?" Liam nodded vigorously, meaning that his sister had guessed correctly.

"No. 1,200 dollars at most." Liam was definitely unwilling to have one-third of the money cut off. He used all his energy to shake Ruby's arm. "Ruby, just once. Just treat it as compensation you givefor hiding your relationship with Jasper from me. You have to make up for my injured heart. I'll buy a pair of shoes. I guarantee that I'll save money from now on." Under her brother's pestering, Ruby finally compromised and transferred two thousand dollars to her brother. She warned coldly, "There won't be a next time." When Liam received the transfer, he was so happy that his heart skipped a beat. He said sweetly, "My big sister is the best. I love you. Love you very much. I'm leaving. Just chat with Jasper... No, he's my brother-in-law now. I won't disturb you." Now that he had the money, he was going to buy the shoes.

Looking at her little brother's cheerful back, Ruby shook her head helplessly and turned around to return to her room.

In the room, Sherri and Hackett almost had sex again. At the critical moment, Hackett flipped over and lay on the bed. He held Sherri's hand and stopped her. "Stop trying to turnon, or I'll really be crippled." Sherri said, "Weren't you quite energetic last night?" "Do you think I'm like a robot or something? No more sex today. Just stop Tellwhat you want to eat. I'll try all means to get whatever you like." Meeting Sherri's hungry and strange gaze, Hackett subconsciously covered his body. "Apart from me, you should recover your vitality. When we are both better, let's enjoy sex again, okay?" "Alright, I'm quite tired too. My heels are like cotton. I want to eat beef stew, roast pork trotters, cake, ice cream, and..." Hackett was willing to buy her food and had the money to buy her whatever she liked. But seeing that she didn't have the intention to stop, he was afraid that he had to finish what she couldn't afford to eat. "Stop! Easy! That's too much. I don't want to die of eating too much." If he died of that, he would be embarrassed even in his funeral after he was dead.

Sherri thought that Hackett hadn't eaten either. She was woken up by Hackett. After waking up, she didn't look at her phone and didn't know what tit was. "Alright. Just the food I've talked about." "Alright, I'll prepare food for you now." As soon as he finished speaking, Hackett sat up like a carp and kissed Sherri heavily before leaving the room to prepare dinner hurriedly.

In another room, Liam was holding his phone. He could not help but share the gossip he had got to know today. He needed to share with others, or he would feel uncomfortable.

When his sister told him just now, he did not react for a long time. It took him a long tto accept this fact. Jasper and Ruby acted to be friends in front of him. He didn't expect that they would be a couple actually.

That was so strange and amazing. Was the world of the grownups so amazing? He picked up his phone and started a new group chat excluding Jasper and Ruby, the people relevant. The group was called "Explosive Gossips".

Liam texed, [Dudes, cout to have fun. Cout to have fun.] Harper, who was studying in the school dormitory, was not in a very good mood. [I'm studying. What's to be excited about?] He had thought that his glory days would cafter the college entrance examination ended. Unexpectedly, his father had set another rule about his college life. If he failed in any exams, he would be grounded.

How old was he? How old was he? Which college student would still be grounded? Harper even suspected that his father had fallen in love with the word "grounded". Harper thought, 'Why doesn't he try to ground himself? Or if he has the ability, he should my mother.' Olivia was also in school. [Are you crazy? It's so late. Why are you so high?] Nona and Cyril were focusing on studying, while their supervisor, Frank, was looking at his son's phone. He sat leisurely on the chair with his legs crossed and stared at his children studying.

Frank, who was in a good mood, helped his son reply with a message, matching Liam's high spirits. [Tellwhat you want to tell us.] Liam felt that Cyril's tone wasn't right. Why did it seem like not Cyril? He asked, [Are you really Cyril?] Cyril: [Yes.] Liam didn't reply. The reply was so concise? Since Liam was in a hurry to share the gossip, he did not ask further questions about Cyril's strange tone. He ignored it and continued.

Liam: [My sister is together with Jasper. They are a real couple.] Olivia felt that Liam's brain was flooded with water. [Have you been possessed by something? Are you hallucinating? Why don't I give you a few injections?] Liam's tone was affirmative. He used himself as an analogy, afraid that everyone would not believe him. [It's true. My sister toldherself tonight. If I lie to you, I'll be a puppy.] Olivia: [You're really not joking?] .

Liam sent an emoticon and texted.

[Do you think I look like joking? My sister's phone is filled Landcher. If you Jasper and there with photos of you don't believe me, go back and check your brother's phone. I guarantee that Jasper's screen is definitely my sister's photo.] .

Jasper and Ruby were really interesting. They appeared to be friends in front of everyone but they actually beca couple! Harper: [Wait a minute, who's dating who? Whose sister and whose brother?] When Frank saw this sentence, he couldn't help but help educate Harper. [Was the score you got in your examinations real?] Harper did not know that the person, who was chatting with him was Frank. He scolded, [Yours is not real. My results are fucking more real than real gold. Try getting that high score yourself.] Frank looked at the word "fucking" and felt that Harper needed to be taught a lesson. [It's easy to be complacent when you're proud. You look arrogant. I will teach you how to be humble one day.] Harper felt that Cyril was really strange today. Cyril's words seemed to be meaningful and hard to understand. Teach him how to be humble? What did Cyril mean? Why did these words sound so much like his uncle? Was it an illusion? .

In the end, because Frank was bored watching his son do his homework, int he read messages in the group Adm half an hour. When he had a sudden impulse, he would send something to the group. At least, he let everyone know that Cyril was still alive. .

Olivia, on the other hand, called his brother, Jasper, as soon as she heard about this gossip from Liam. The call was quickly picked up. "Jasper." .

Her tone was a little anxious and excited. Once upon a time, she and om Sophia really felt that it was a pity that her brother did not have a crush DRuby. Now that she heard that the two of them were already together, she wanted to confirm it herself. She wanted to confirm it with her brother. After all, Liam liked to exaggerate. She could only believe half of Liam's words. .

Perhaps half was too much.

Jasper said, "Hello, you are still awake? It's late." "Cut it. Don't talk about me." Olivia was afraid that she would interrupt her roommates, so she put on a coat out of her pajamas and made the call on the balcony.

"Are you really with Ruby?" "Yes, go back to sleep. I'll talk to you about this tomorrow." Olivia recalled the past. There was really no clue at all. She suppressed the excitement in her heart and almost ran back and forth in the corridor out of excitement. "Jasper, how long have you been together?" "More than a year." Olivia was speechless.

Why didn't her brother go undercover? He should be good at that
