Chapter 413 When Frank returned, he was carrying two plates. One was full of Ava’s favorite dishes, and the other was full of his dishes. His plate contained simple food with only a few items. Ava had a lot of favorite foods. In the end, she definitely wouldn't be able to finish them all and need his help.
Frank placed the plate in front of Ava and sat down beside her. The cup filled with milk was placed beside it.
Daniel and Emma quietly watched Frank's skillful operation. It was obvious that this was not the first time. Unknowingly, Daniel and Emma had gained a favorable impression of Frank, their future son-in-law.
Daniel and Emma felt much more at ease.
William glanced at his son from the comer of his eyes and nodded in relief. Frank was indeed just like William, being so kind to his wife.
It was completely inherited.
After Frank sat down, Ava secretly leaned close to Frank's ear while their mothers and fathers were talking. This was a loving scene in the eyes of the four elders. The two young people were very close.
Ava said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “Frank, I think Mrs. Turner looks cool. I like her.
Upon hearing this, Frank paused for a few seconds. The corners of his lips curled up. Then, he also leaned close to Ava’s ear and replied in a low voice, “As long as you like her.
Frank would never have thought that Ava liked cool things and could also like cool people, such as Grace.
This was quite good and also beyond his expectations.
As for the relationship between Ava and Grace in the future, Frank had never worried about it. Grace was a person who did not interfere with others’ private life. Although Baby Ava was young, she was not a pampered person. She did not cross the bottom line of Grace.
Frank glanced at Ava’s plate. “Eat what you like. If you don’t want to eat, leave the rest for me.” “Okay,” Ava replied obediently.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGrace put down the plate first, folded her hands in front of her chest, sat up straight, and said to everyone, “We'll go back later.
This time, we're mainly here to help Frank settle the engagement. When you're free, you're welcome to come to the Roberts family The Roberts family was so big that it was more than enough to accommodate a few people.
This could be considered an invitation from Grace.
Emma rarely found someone she could chat with so well. Grace was a straightforward person who said whatever was on her mind. It was very comfortable to chat with such a person. “It’s so sudden. If possible, | still hope that you guys can play for a few more days.” William couldn't help but praise, | quite like the environment of Sapphire City. The people are good, the scenery is good, and Frank has good taste. To be honest, the children at home need us to go back and take care of them. One or two days is fine, but they will cause trouble if we don't go back after so many days.” Daniel and Emma naturally understood. Previously, they had asked Joseph to investigate. Trevon had told them about the Roberts family’s beginnings and past. They roughly understood it.
All four elders were saying their goodbyes. Some were urging them to stay, while others were extending invitations. No one noticed that Ava’s actions had slowed down to a crawl as she ate quietly. She absentmindedly pushed food into her mouth, her tasteless chewing mimicking the act of chewing wax.
Grace was an observant person. It could be said that other than Rose, the others in the Roberts family were all observant. They could see many problems with just one expression and one look.
At that moment, Grace fixed her gaze on Ava. She looked around, her expression unchanged, then turned to Frank and asked, “How many days do you plan to stay?” Grace's question was about how many days Frank intended to stay, not whether he was going back with them this time.
Actually, this question was also what Ava wanted to know. When she heard Grace's question, she first looked up at Grace and smiled. The disappointment on Ava’s face was gone. When Grace met Ava’s clear eyes, she couldn't help but smile slightly.
Ava turned to look at Frank. When their eyes met, Frank could see the reluctance in Ava’s eyes, as well as the anticipation to know the answer. “I haven't thought about it. Help me take care of the matters in the docks for a few days.” 1/4 16:12 Chapter 413 The first half of the sentence was an answer to Ava and also an answer to Grace. The second half was completely directed at Grace.
Frank had just proposed, so there was no reason for him to abandon his fiancée. He definitely had to accompany Ava for a few days.
Grace had long known that this would be the outcome. She replied calmly. “Okay” Grace turned her gaze to Ava again. A few seconds later, Grace said to Ava, who was still smiling. “We'll wait for Athana, Ava.
you at “Ah?” Being shouted at by her future mother-in-law, Grace, Ava was stunned for a moment. However, the socializing Ava was still very polite and replied happily, ‘Okay, Mrs. Roberts, I'll come.” Grace smiled at Ava again.
After breakfast, Grace set off with her luggage because the Roberts family’s private plane had already sent Rose back.
The Turner family naturally arranged for their private plane to send William and Grace back to Athana. They also arranged for bodyguards. There was nothing wrong with the Turner family’s arrangements.
Seeing it, William couldn't help but praise Frank for having good taste. Not only was his future daughter-in-law, Ava, good-looking but she was also cultured. Besides, her family was so cultured.
After sending off William and Grace, both Emma and Daniel didn’t ask for Ava to return to the Turner family. They tacitly agreed to let Ava stay in a hotel.
In the afternoon. William sent a message to Rose. [Baby Rose, I'm back with Grace. Come home early tonight. | will cook your favorite dishes. Tell me when you've thought of what you want to eat.] A few hours later, Rose got off work and happily prepared to eat with Edward.
Rose took off her white coat and was about to take out her phone to send a message when she saw William’s message. She panicked for a moment and felt guilty.
The date for the night was probably going to be canceled.
With no choice, she had to stand Edward up. Caught between her new boyfriend and her parents, Rose decisively chose to abandon Edward.
Rose silently repeated in her heart, ‘Edward, I'll make it up to you in the future. There’s just no way. My parents love me too much.” It was rare for William to cook, and Rose had to go back. She sighed. Rose planned to confess to Frank in the evening and ask for his help in revealing a little bit of information to Grace and William in the future.
Rose didn't want to scare them.
After thinking for a long time, Rose finally decided to send a message to Edward. [My parents are back. | can't eat with you tonight. I'm sorry.] Then, Rose sent a hug emoji which was very cute.
After sending the message, Rose replied to William. [Alright, William, do whatever you want to do. I'm not a picky eater.] At that moment, at Landor Group, Edward was about to pick up Rose for a meal. The two of them had agreed to eat the specialty dishes from last time.
The documents on the table had yet to be tidied up. Edward glanced at the display screen and knew that Rose had already gotten off work. It was about time, so Edward closed the documents.
His phone rang. Edward guessed that it was a message from Rose. He stopped tidying up and picked up his phone to check.
The anticipation on his face was instantly tainted with disappointment and helplessness.
Kyle pushed the door open and entered. Five minutes ago, Edward called Kyle. He said that he had something to do and asked Kyle to continue working following. Kyle was here to work.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs soon as Kyle entered, he saw Edward frowning so hard. “Are you in trouble?” Edward was replying to Rose’s message and did not immediately reply to Kyle. [It's fine. I'll call you tonight.] Rose smiled seeing it. [Alright, when | send 1, it means that | can receive the call.] Seeing this message, Edward smiled helplessly. They were really like secret intelligence personnel. There was even a secret code. Only Rose would have such strange and adorable thoughts.
However, Edward still replied, (You are the boss.] 2/4 16:12 Chapter 413 Edward had never imagined that one day he would have to engage in a secret relationship and couldn't casually go out for a meal with his girlfriend.
After replying. Edward looked up at Kyle and said calmly but he didn’t look very happy. “You can get off work. | will continue handling these documents.” Kyle was stunned for a moment. Was Edward kidding Kyle? “What's going on? Didn't you say that you had something on? Edward, | realized that | haven't been able to keep up your pace recently.” with Recently, Kyle had not been able to know why Edward did so many strange things. Sometimes, Kyle was asked to have morning meetings, and sometimes, Kyle was asked to work overtime. At the same time, Kyle was prepared to work overtime, but Edward said that he could get off work. Wouldn't this be torturous? Plans could not keep up with changes. For someone like Kyle, who always enjoyed planning and organizing things, this feeling was certainly uncomfortable. Edward rarely joked with Kyle. “That means your ability to work has decreased. If you can’t keep up with my pace, you still have to work hard.” “Edward, you're quite the talker. Alright then, should | stay here or call it a day?” Kyle was speechless.
Since Edward couldn't go out on a date anyway, he decided to stay at the office and work. “You can go off duty. I'll handle the remaining tasks myself” Tom brought Rose to the Roberts family on time. As soon as Rose stepped into the living room, she smelled the delicious smell and was instantly hungry. Grace was sitting leisurely on the sofa reading documents with a pen in her hand.
When Grace heard a sound at the door, she knew who it was without turning around. “Wash your hands first. It's almost time to eat.
Rose threw her bag on the sofa and leaned over to take a look at the documents in Grace’s hand. Her eyes darted around.
“Grace, did Frank not come back?” Rose was waiting for Frank to come back and help her.
Grace did not turn her head, so she naturally could not see the cautious look on her daughter's face. Grace thought that it was just that Rose missed Frank. Grace replied calmly, “Yes, he wants to accompany Ava.” Rose stood behind the couch in a daze, lost in thought. Did that mean she had to continue with a secret relationship? “Do you have something to tell Frank?” Rose came back to her senses and waved her hand. “Hey, why would | look for him? | was just asking casually. | didn’t see him anywhere.
Grace, who was busy reading the documents, did not turn around all the time. She did not notice that Rose’s waving motion was a little too big. Otherwise, Grace would definitely have seen through the problem at a glance.
Rose heaved a huge sigh of relief behind Grace's back. Then, she crouched down and entered the kitchen. She saw William's figure in the kitchen, wearing an apron and bustling around. It felt warm and touching to her, and she stood there in a daze for a few seconds.
Rose put on a relaxed expression and walked into the kitchen. “William, do you need my help? My skills are good too.” William was handling the fish with precision, his movements swift and his posture handsome. When he noticed Rose preparing to grab an apron, he didn't stop her. “Arent you tired after a day’s work? | can manage to make several dishes on my own. Just sit on the couch, watch a show, and we'll be ready to eat in a little while.
Rose still put on the apron, tying it skillfully. The way she tied the apron showed that she wasn't a stranger to cooking. She seemed quite accustomed to it, possibly even doing it regularly.
Willian hid his heartache and pretended to ask casually, “Didn't | find a maid for you? Why did you still cook for yourself?” | can’t be completely useless. After all, 'm the Roberts family’s daughter. If others were to find out that without a maid. | can’t even have a proper meal, how embarrassing would that be? You, Grace, and even Frank can cook. | have to keep up with you all, right? | can't fall behind. Don’t you agree?” Rose spoke in a relaxed tone, not letting William have any other thoughts.
“Not everyone in our family needs to know how to cook. It's because of the era we were born in that your mom and | had to learn. Frank knows how to cook because he’s diligent and independent. When you grow older, just find a husband who knows how to cook.” “A husband who knows how to cook?” In a split second, Rose thought about whether Edward knew how to cook. Even if he didn't, it wouldn't matter. Rose knew how to cook.
