Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 482

Ava and Frank were back in the next room.

Ava did not sleep when she returned to her room. She had said that she was tired because she did not want to disturb Rose and Edward’s private time. She was pretty energetic after catching up on sleep in the morning. Moreover, she wanted to build her palace as well.

She took out the palace set, and every part of the bag was individually packaged. She chose a small bag and poured the pieces on the table. Frank sat on the ground beside her to help unwrap the parts and look at the instructions.

Frank patiently read the instructions carefully, and his eyes were fixed on the paper as he pondered. He pinched the back of Ava’s neck. “Baby Ava, let’s start from the foundation and keep going, alright?”

“Do you want to do this first? Alright, I’ll find out what this area needs first. Then, we’ll piece it together according to the instructions.”

Ava looked at the pieces and made her own arrangements, which were orderly, organized, and neat. Her slender hands were already rummaging through the pieces on the table to find what she needed.

This was the first time Frank had done such meticulous work since he was born. Ava might be the only one in this world who could make him sit and build a palace. In the past, when he was in school, he had never handed in his homework for art classes.

He patiently picked up the paper with instructions and helped Ava find the pieces one by one. “Let’s have some rest after an hour, alright?”

Frank cast a quick glance at the intricate tasks at hand, realizing how straining they were on the eyes and neck, making it unsustainable to keep one’s head down for long.

Even Ava couldn’t endure it for long. She had already been assisting Rose for an hour and politely responded, “Alright.”

The two of them cooperated silently, and neither of them spoke. Ava lowered her head and stared at the pieces in her hands, afraid that she would make any mistake. Frank, on the other hand, held the pieces in his hand and handed them to her. From the beginning, his eyes had been fixed on her face.

After putting part of the palace together, Ava looked up and happened to meet Frank’s gaze. She was not embarrassed and said with a smile, “Do you think I will become more beautiful if you keep staring at me?”

Frank still did not look away. Instead, his gaze was still fixed on her as he smiled faintly. “You can’t be more beautiful,” he said.

Ava had a genuine smile on her face, for Frank had started to learn how to say sweet things to her. She changed the topic, “I think Edward really takes care of Rose. What do you think, Frank?”

Frank did not affirm his approval. “He is fine so far.”

Ava Turner nodded, understanding that true kindness wasn’t a fleeting gesture but rather a sustained commitment, like the his. parents treated each other, the way his sister and her husband took care of each other. Short-term interactions couldn’t provide a definitive assessment, but based on their current interactions, it appeared that Edward was treating Rose quite well.

Ava hoped that Edward would treat Rose with love, kindness, and respect forever.

“Frank, are you jealous seeing them getting married? If you want, we can get married whenever you

want.”

Frank’s friends were already married. Hackett, his brother-in-law, and Rose were already married. Ava felt that their relationship was actually the same as marriage. It was just a piece of paper, so she would be more than willing to do the paperwork if Frank fell left behind.

Frank didn’t think so. “Don’t worry about others. I’m not in a hurry. Let’s wait until you graduate.”

“Alright then, Frank said reassuringly as he tenderly ruffled Ava’s head. It meant both comfort and a genuine assurance that everything was fine.
