The next morning.
Due to Trevon's hard work of taking care of the kid at home last night, when Natalie returned, she gave a great compliment.
That man walked down the stairs and tidied his sleeves. He had a smile on his lips and was in high spirits. His face was filled with satisfaction. If not for the child, he would not be willing to wear a scarf around his neck.
Natalie followed behind and glared at the unrestrained man. "It's raining heavily today. Are you driving or is Jim picking you up? I'm not going to work today." Trevon turned around and looked at Natalie's leg with a faint smile. "If you're tired, rest well at home." Then, he reached out to help her up and whispered into her ear, "Next time we go to Evergreen Gardens, that function hasn't been used for a long time.
You must have broken the record last night." His arm was pinched. Trevon retracted his smile and said seriously, "Jim took leave today. I'll drive there myself." When a man changed his face, it was done in an instant. It was as if he wasn't the despicable person just now.
Natalie's head was dizzying as she looked at her mischievous daughters who looked like two crazy bulls as soon as they woke up running downstairs. Sophia was holding a submachine gun and carrying a bag as she played PUBG. Olivia played along with her, but she was not as high as Sophia, jumping up and down from the coffee table.
Caleb did not seem to see it. He calmly read the newspaper. Jasper sat on the sofa and watched his younger sisters play expressionlessly. The entire family was already immune to such a scene like a war. Even Rachel was used to it and did not stop them.
Natalie didn't want to stop them either. "Didn't Mr. Hawk never take leave? Did he go back to his hometown?" For so many years, she seemed to have only heard of Mr. Hawk working overtime and had never heard of him taking leave. This made Natalie curious.
Trevon's thin lips curled up. "It's almost Christmas. Jim is also starting to think about having a date. | heard from Terrell that he went on a blind date today.” "Blind date?" Natalie's voice suddenly rose a few octaves, and there was a hint of surprise on her face.
"Yes, Terrell said it. | think Jim must have been flaunting before him. He said that someone in the secretary department knows a good single girl. She is teaching English in Athana High School and is also a head teacher. Quite a good woman. | don't know if he can succeed.” Upon hearing this, Natalie understood. "Mr. Hawk is a good guy and well-paid. | think that girl is in a good profession, quite compatible with Mr. Hawk. One is an elite in the workplace, and the other is a high school teacher. What a match. Give Mr. Hawk more holiday. Don't make him work overtime. He needs more weekends." Trevon said, "Got it, honey. | thought he had a chance to get in touch with Ava's friends." Natalie knew who this guy was talking about. When Ava got married, this man had once said something mean. "Then you're thinking too much. Alex is the same as Stella. They enjoy the life of staying single.” "It's fine. Have a good rest at home. Call me if you're feeling unwell. I'm sending the kids to school. Sophia, Olivia, let's go. Stop playing. Time for school!" Trevon stood in the living room and raised his hand to look at his watch. He shouted at his two daughters, who were still jumping around.
Hearing this, Sophia immediately put the toy gun in his hand in Caleb's arms and said politely to his family, "Grandpa, Grandma, Mommy, goodbye." Olivia and Jasper also replied them politely. This was a courtesy that the children had to observe after school.
The next year.
Rose used Ava's method to successfully conceive her third child. Just as Edward was puzzled about how she got pregnant, Rose laughed and told Edward that secret method.
Edward had learned a principle from Rose's pregnancy. As long as Rose wanted to get pregnant, there was nothing that could stop her. It was impossible to prevent her from achieving her goal.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAbout a year later, Rose had a cesarean section. Edward had accompanied her. Sherri had operated the surgery because she was pregnant with twins, a serious situation. However, she did not have the result as Rose had hoped. It seemed that she would never have a daughter. In Edward's words, with four sons managing the company, he could travel the world with Rose when they got old.
That was a nice thing in another sense.
The new boys' names were Vincent and Dalton.
Everyone was living in a proper rhythm. The girls would gather around for a meal from time to time. After Jim's blind date was successful, he started dating a high school teacher. Trevon showed great tolerance to allow Jim to rest one day a week and four days a month during the relationship.
However, Terrell was extremely envious. Recently, he had been asking Jim to introduce a girl to him.
A few years later.
Lena didn't make it at last. Natalie set the funeral service in the Foster's residence. It was placed for three days before it was sent for cremation and buried beside Jenny and her grandfather.
After leaving the cemetery, Tucker wanted to say something but hesitated. Natalie could tell that he had something to say. "Just say what you want. There's no need to stammer.” They walked side by side. "Natalie, can | continue to live in the Foster's residence?" He wanted to guard this house for his sister and grandfather. The house was filled with the memories of their past time. It was also a life he wanted to have but could not touch when he was young.
Natalie stroked her brother's neck like a warm angel. The next second, she held Trevon and her brother's wrists. The others followed behind them.
"Sure. You've graduated from college now. You should have your own opinions. You can make your own decisions. You can live wherever you want." Tucker knew that his sister would agree, but this house belonged to his sister. He should gain her permission in advance, "Okay, then I'll stay in the Foster's residence.” He would guard it for his sister.
When Lena was buried, Natalie and Trevon asked their children to kneel. Jasper's life was saved by Lena. Jasper had to show his respect. They had to take a bow.
The twins finished the rituals and ran back to their parents. But Jasper was unwilling to get up from the ground. He only got up and bowed three times after all the procedures.
After leaving the cemetery, Caleb got the children into the car and said to Trevon, "I'll take the kids home first. If you and Natalie have anything to deal with, go ahead. Don't worry about them." Natalie nodded in gratitude. "Thank you. Sophia, be quiet. Stop causing trouble and listen to your Grandpa and Grandma." Sophia answered perfunctorily, "Okay, got it." Jim stood beside Trevon. "Mr. Wilson, I'll drive them back first." "Yeah. Be careful." "Okay." 50 minutes later, Trevon's car arrived at the Foster's residence. The courtyard was still in the funeral's decoration. Natalie thought that since his brother was going to live here, it might be a scary thing.
Standing in the courtyard in silence, Trevon seemed to be able to see through everything about her. However, as long as she was by his side, he would always be there to protect her and respect her private time. As long as she wanted to do something, he would support her every decision unconditionally. He would not ask for the reason or the outcome.
Tucker followed behind Natalie. When he saw his sister staring at the white cloth in the courtyard, he understood what she was thinking about. "Natalie, there's no need to worry about it. Let it stay like this. I'm not afraid. Lena treats me very well. Even if she goes home to take a look, she won't scare me. She will only take care of me. Just keep it like this. Don't move them." Seeing that his sister and brother-in-law were silent, he nodded sincerely. "I'm telling the truth. I'm not afraid." Natalie patted her brother's head and brought him into the house. As soon as they entered, Tucker ran upstairs. This action made Natalie and Trevon confused, who were standing downstairs in a daze. Neither of them knew what he was going to do.
Not long after, Tucker came down with two documents in his hand. He sat down on the sofa and handed them to his sister.
"Natalie, take a look at the two papers. | asked my lawyer to write them. He said that once you sign them, they will take effect.” Natalie seemed to have known something. She glanced at Tucker and saw that he was still holding the documents. She reached out to take it and casually flipped through it. She didn't find anything wrong and handed it to Trevon. He flipped it open and looked at it for a while. He leaned against the sofa and looked up to scrutinize Tucker, who was sitting opposite him.
As he grew older, Tucker looked more and more like Elena. He had a good-looking face. Coupled with the rimless glasses on the bridge of his nose, he looked more refined and comfortable.
Being stared at by them, Tucker felt insecure and was the first to speak. "Natalie, don't be angry. These things shouldn't have been given to me in the first place. These things belong to you. I've grown up now. I'll return them to you on behalf of our mother." Of the two pieces of documents, one was Elena's request to transfer Harry's shares to Tucker, and the other was about the Foster family's villa.
After staying silent for a while, Natalie searched for words. She did not want to hurt her brother. She did not expect that after such a long time, Tucker still felt indebted to her. However, he did not owe her anything. It was Harry and Elena.
She heaved a sigh of relief. Trevon felt the change in the emotions of the couple before. He reached out and gently touched her neck as a comfort.
After a while, she licked her lips and said, "Tucker, do you think I'm your sister?" Tucker nodded hurriedly. "Yes, you'll always be my sister." "Well, what's your last name?" "Huh?" Natalie asked again, "What's your surname? Tell me." "Foster." "Yes, your surname is Foster, and mine is also Foster. We're both descendants of the Foster family, so why can't you get these? They are also what you deserve. Even if Harry doesn't give them to you, I'll give you it to you on behalf of Grandpa. Why didn't Grandpa let Harry and your mother enter the family? To protect me from being disturbed. Grandpa has never been hostile to you.
Instead, he wanted to get close to you. He's just afraid that if he gets close to you, your mother will take advantage of you to enter this house. In the past, | didn't understand why Grandpa always stood by the window. Now, | understand because you said that you always stayed outside the house.
"Tucker, there are some times when | can't let it go. At that time, | also felt that your mother had ruined my life and brought me a terrible childhood. It was her that caused my mother to choose to commit suicide. So, | don't hate you and also don't like you, | don't get close to you, and | can't do that. But now that I've let it go. I've let it go a long time before. Can't you see my change after we've been together for so many years? It's all in the past. I've already moved on. Can you move on?" Natalie eased her emotions and tried to hold back the tears in her eyes. She paused for a long time and sniffed. "I've said it many times. Their sins are not your fault. Don't take responsibility for them. Yes, everyone has their time when they can't get over themselves. | have mine too. | was in a dead end back then, but | come out of that dark period now. Tucker, can you come out? If you still treat me as your sister and admit that you are part of the Foster family, don't mention these words again in the future." Natalie hated Elena and Harry, but it was all in the past. She would not harp on this topic. Everyone had to look forward. She hoped that Tucker would look forward too.
Her words made Tucker lower his head and take off his glasses. Tears fell from his eyes. In the quiet living room, the only things that could be heard were the sound of tears falling and the sound of his nose sniffing.
After a long while, Trevon pushed the document back to Tucker. He spoke in a deep voice without any emotions. "Don't mention this matter in the future. Your sister's arrangements are correct. You've already graduated from university. The Foster Group has always been managed by someone else. Since you have shares, you should do your part. Pull yourself together. Go to work and learn some management skills from Terrell. You don't plan to let someone else handle your own company for the rest of your life, do you? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?" At this moment, Tucker had no other choice but to nod. He nodded repeatedly. Natalie's eyes lit up again when she saw him cheer up. She handed him a tissue. "Look at you. Tell me, how old are you? You're already an adult. You can get married and be a father in a few years. Take back your tears.” The next day, Tucker went to the company. Terrell asked him to start as an assistant and even arranged for him to work in the same office with him.
Avyear and a half later, Tucker was able to take over the company, but Trevon allowed Terrell to remain in the company to assist Tucker.
The next year, Harry left the company.
To help his parents atone for their sins, Tucker donated two-thirds of his shares to the orphanage and established a foundation called Rebirth. It could be considered as kindness to wash his parent's mistake. He hoped that they could be good people and reincarnate into someone kind.
A girl from the company had fallen in love with Tucker. She was a clerk. Her family background was average, but she was a gentle and innocent girl. As his most important family, Natalie, and Trevon held the wedding. The wedding was set at the Foster's residence. That girl's family was very satisfied with their arrangement. She listened to Tucker all the time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNatalie and Trevon's wedding gift to Tucker was 50% of the Foster Group's shares. In total, Natalie had much fewer shares than him.
How could the heir of a company have fewer shares than she did? She had been thinking about it for a long time. She had been looking for the right time to give it away. The marriage had come just in time.
On the day of Tucker's wedding, a priest sent a blessing. He did not say which church he came from, only saying that it was from Junia Simmons.
After the wedding ended, Trevon told Emily Foster that the blessing was from Emily. She said that she had married a man overseas, but she divorced after a few years. The reason was that she had been abused by her family. After many twists and turns, she became a nun.
This news shocked Natalie. How desperate would a person be to choose to become a nun? Moreover, Emily had always been a strong woman.
Since Emily was able to send the item to the Foster's residence, it meant that she had asked about her brother's situation usually. She just resisted the urge to look for him.
After receiving his sister's gift, Tucker started to build the orphanage that he had sponsored. He planned to spend most of the proceeds on raising the children in the orphanage.
Not long after, the good news of Leia’s giving birth to her second child came.
The next year, Leia gave birth to the Yamin family's second boy, named Fynn Yamin. Angie happily held a celebration. William also happily gave them gifts worth tens of millions of dollars. Perhaps this was the friendship of bickering. His arrogant generosity spread throughout the entire Athana.
It also made all people in Athana know how close the relationship between the Yamin family and the Han family was.
To show William respect, Trevon chose to give a low-key gift and a Universal Card. Together, they exceeded 2 million dollars by William.
In the same year, Jim got married to that high school teacher. The wedding was held in Jim's hometown. Jim's wife was very reasonable and kind. After getting married, she brought her in-laws to Athana, saying that she needed the two elders to take care of her in case she had a baby.
Jim and his wife were worried that their old parents would be in danger of living in the countryside. They were afraid that something might happen.
Trevon bought a large suite for Evergreen Gardens as a wedding gift and gave Jim a Mercedes-Benz car.
On their wedding day, Jim received an unfamiliar text message. The content was wishing you a lifetime of happiness.
Jim knew who it was the moment he saw the message. He deleted the message without hesitation and even blocked the phone number. Susan was very good. He could not do anything to let her down.
Susan was Jim's new wife, that high school English teacher.
