Chapter 454 Next, Edward said the word “stand to Rose. Rose did not move. She said to Sherri beside her, “Cry.” Sherri smiled and said to Hackett beside her, “I love you.” Afraid of losing. Hackett looked focused. “I don't...
He thought, “Oh no! Saying that | don’t love you is the right answer, but if | say that, I'll still be pegged by Rose.” Actually, Sherri didn’t think too much when she said it. She just blurted it out.
Sherri said, “It's okay, Hackett. Even if you say you don’t love me, it won't mean you don’t love me anymore. Say it? In the end, Hackett did not say anything. He would rather die than say that he didn’t love Sherri. He saw how Edward looked after taking the punishment and thought that it did not hurt that much. His blind confidence was what hurt him. As he showed no fear, he stood up domineeringly and asked the guys to peg him. The moment he was pegged, he broke down.
He couldn't help but blurt out, “Seriously? Rose! Why did you pick such a terrible punishment!” He thought, “What a wicked girl!” Hackett cursed.
Rose was gloating. She twisted her waist and held Edward's hand under the table. Since Hackett questioned her just now, she felt great that she could have her revenge. “Well, I'm sorry that it hurts” Natalie and Ava held their cheeks together and looked at Hackett's pained expression. Hackett appeared in so much pain that the two of them frowned as well.
“Oh my god, it hurts so much. It hurts! Are we here for a happy gathering? This is torture. Oh my god, | can't take it anymore.
Take the pegs off me!” Trevon felt that Hackett was noisy. He dug his ears and said, “This will end soon if you just keep your mouth shut.” In the end, Hackett finished the punishment with a wail. During this period, he was not as domineering as before. It was Sherri, a pregnant woman, who helped him sit down at the table.
Sherri felt sorry for him while she was also amused.
Hackett couldn't believe that Edward didn’t find the punishment painful. He lowered his head and asked Edward, “Why weren't you in pain at all just now?” Trevon kindly answered for Edward, despising Hackett for being sentimental. “Rose made him strong.” As soon as these words were spoken, everyone who was originally holding back their laughter instantly laughed out loud.
Hackett’s sorry state just now was still vivid in their minds. They kept imitating him. Sherri apologized with heartache, “Hubby, I'm sorry. | just felt like expressing my love for you.” Hackett waved his hand to indicate that he was fine. He just needed to relieve the pain as he kept rubbing his face.
Rose felt that Trevon and Frank would definitely not be punished while playing this game. It was better to play some more intimate game. Otherwise, the one who would be tortured would only be Edward. Her brother was so scheming and asked tricky questions.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEdward might not be able to handle it.
In the end, the guys played with the paper strips for a while. It started with Trevon. Two people kept a long piece of paper in their mouths and tore it with force. When Natalie finished, Ava would proceed, and then the next one followed suit. When Frank and Edward tore the paper, it was a little awkward. The length of the paper was already quite short. If they didn’t do it well, they might end up kissing each other.
Frank bit the paper strip and said to Edward in a muffled voice, “Hurry up.” Edward did not dawdle. He observed for a while and quickly tore the paper. Everyone looked at this scene and found it quite weird, but they were all very happy.
The paper strip had become even shorter when it came to Rose. Edward turned his head. Rose tilted her head to look at the paper. Frank covered Ava’s eyes, but she wanted to watch the fun. “Frank, what are you doing?” Frank couldn't help but remind her, “Use your teeth.” Hackett said, “Hey, are you cheating so openly?” “You're allowed to bite. It's not like you don’t have teeth.” In the end, Rose listened to her brother’s suggestion and bit a corner of the paper. Her lip still touched Edward's. It was soft and her face instantly blushed.
Frank let go of Ava’s eyes. Ava was very curious. “Did they end up kissing?” “No.” 1/4 10.51 Chapter 454 Ava was a little disappointed. Frank wouldn't let her see it.
There was less pressure when two girls played the game. Sherri thought that she was very capable, to she sped up and tore the paper strip quickly. Because she was too fast, she only tore off a corner.
Hackett knew that she had lost when he saw the corner in her mouth. He stood up tactfully and let the others peg him as punishment.
He was in pain again as he wailed once again.
Even the bodyguards standing at the side could feel Hackett's pain.
To be fair. the game proceeded with Hackett. Trevon lost at the end.
Because Hackett and Sherri had cheated, the two of them had already torn two-thirds of the paper strip in the first round When it came to Trevon, he could hardly get a corner out of it.
Trevon calmly took the punishment. However, he did not scream like Hackett diel. He got pegged with a calm face and then returned to his seat, looking as if nothing had happened.
Hackett began to question everything he had learned. He felt insulted. “Exactly what can hurt you guys?” Trevon ignored him. He was actually in pain as well.
Frank said. “Even if | went easy on you, you would still scream. You always claim to have a delicate face with fair skin. Hor does backfire taste now?” After playing games for more than an hour, everyone started chatting. They talked about the babies, the future, the babies names, Ava’s marriage, and many other things.
Just like that, Natalie and Sherri went to and from work every day, Trevon also picked them up day after day. More than a month passed quickly.
Ava's summer vacation was about to end.
“Ava, what else do you need? There's no hurry. We're not in a hurry. You can leave at any time you want.” After living under the same roof for more than a month, Mr. and Mrs. Roberts were used to the popularity their future daughter— in-law brought to the family.
In the morning, Rose was reluctant to go to work. In the end, she left reluctantly.
Rose was used to hiding in bed with Ava every night to watch s and variety shows.
“Mr. and Mrs. Roberts, I'll come over during the next holiday. | can also come over when my sister goes into labor. Welcome to Sapphire City when you're available for a visit.
Ava invited the Roberts couple with a smile. After more than a month of internship, she had seen a lot of things that she had not seen before, and she had matured a lot.
Frank came down the stairs with Ava’s suitcases and placed them on the ground. “You guys go to work. I'll send Ava to the airport “Yeah You should get to work, Mr. and Mrs. Roberts. Frank will give me a ride.” Frank knew that the young girl did not want to trouble his parents, so he said again, “Till send Baby Ava to the airport now Don’t worry.
William instructed, “Alright, Tell the driver to be more careful with driving later. Ava, call us when you get home.” “I will. See you around. Mr. and Mrs. Roberts.” Grace said, “See you In fact, there were still ten days before school. Ava had already lived in Athana for so long. She wanted to spend some time with her parents. After a summer vacation, her mental state was different. If she really married Frank and lived in Athana in the future, she would not be able to accompany her parents often. She would spend more time with Frank and spend less time with her parents.
At the airport, Pat followed behind while Frank and Ava were holding hands as they pushed her suitcases forward. When Ava came over, she merely kept one suitcase with her. When she returned, she had three suitcases. One of the suitcases was filled with jewelry pieces designed by IY Jewelry Company Grace prepared the jewelry for Ava and Emma.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnother suitcase was filled with specialties of Athana. William and the others bought every kind of specialty so that the Turner family could try them all out and see which one was delicious. William would buy the delicious ones later. He focused on the details.
The last suitcase was the one that Ava had brought over herself. It was filled with clothes and cosmetics that Grace had bought for her.
This thre. Ava did not cry. She smiled and comforted Frank “Frank, I'm leaving. Don’t forget to miss me 2/4 Chapter 454 Frank's eyes darkened. He was already used to sleep with the young girl in his arms every day. He raised his harel and touched her face. “You really don’t want me to send you back?” Ava wrapped her arms around his neck. Pat turned around. “Frank, you can’t go back on your word. Didn't we agree last night that | would go back myself? | have Pat with me.” Around trip would take a few hours. Ava felt that they would part again in the future. She had to learn to be as strong as Grace since she would share Frank's burdens. She could not be so weak.
Frank rubbed Ava’s hair reluctantly and hugged her tightly. During the summer vacation, his girl seemed to have grown up and was not as clingy as before. She had also become bolder. This made Frank inexplicably flustered. He was used to the young girl sticking to him. “Okay, Baby Ava. | love you” Ava’'s muffled voice sounded in his arms. Every word she said got to Frank. “I love you too, Frank. | love you very much. I'll keep waiting until the day you marry me.” Frank said, “Okay. He would marry her anytime.
The plane took off. Frank looked up at the sky again. His girl was slowly growing up.
Five hours passed.
As soon as Ava walked into the Turner Manor, she took out her phone and sent Frank a message, which said, “Frank, I'm home.” Frank replied, “Okay.” Ava sent another message to Grace, “Mrs. Roberts, I'm home.” Grace replied, “Okay. Come and visit us anytime. Ask Frank to pick you up whenever you feel like coming to Athana.” Ava sent a happy emoji and replied, “Okay, Mrs. Roberts.” Pat placed the suitcases in the living room and said respectfully to Ava, “Miss, I'll excuse myself now.” “Alright. Thank you for your hard work.” “It's my duty.” With that, Pat quickly left the living room.
Ava did not tell Natalie that she was coming back today as she didn’t want her sister to send her to the airport. Recently, Natalie did not sleep well at night because she was at the late stage of her pregnancy. Ava did not want her sister to worry. She clicked open Fairy Fortress and sent a message. “Sisters, I'm back at Sapphire City. Welcome to come over at any time.” Natalie said, “Why did you go back?” Sherri said, “Yeah. Why? Why didn’t you tell us that you were leaving? We were planning to go to the Botanic Garden on the weekend.” Rose, who knew the inside story, pretended not to see the messages and did not reply because Ava told her not to tell the girls that she was leaving.
Ava replied casually, “It's alright. I'll definitely travel from Sapphire City and Athana very often from now on. Trevon and Natalie are very busy. | had Frank send me to the airport.” Trevon had to take care of her sister every day and had to go to work. It was very tiring. Ava was too embarrassed to ask them to take her to the airport. Ava, who had worked before, already knew the hardship in life. There was no such thing as easy in the adult world.
Her current comfortable life was earned through the hard work of her father, brother, and mother. She had to learn to be more sensible.
She had already gone back and arrived in Sapphire City. What else could Natalie say? Even if she felt reluctant to part with her sister, it was pointless. She wanted to buy something for Ava when the girl returned, who, however, left without telling her.
Natalie said, “Don’t tell your mom about my swollen feet.” Ava replied, “Got it.” After sending the message, she looked up and saw Joseph standing at the staircase in his casual clothes looking at her. “Why are you home today, Joseph?” He was still wearing his casual clothes. She wondered why he didn’t go to work.
Joseph glanced at the three suitcases in the living room. “Why didn’t you tell me you were coming back? Didn't Frank send you back?” “It's not that he didn’t want to send me back, but | didn’t want him to. I'm not young any more. I'll be 23 years old after the new year. | can’t keep asking him to send me back. He just took over a company and is very busy.” Joseph stood beside Ava and was about to help her carry her suitcases up. “I heard from Frank that you've been an intern for
