Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 504

Christina made her way familiarly to the front desk.

Frank also came to the front desk with an arm around Ava’s shoulders. Christina joked, “How much discount will the boss give?”

“The current boss is my fiancée. She has the final say on the discount.” As he spoke, Frank tidied the loose ends of Ava’s hair.

“It’s okay, Christina. I’ll treat you.” Ava had to help her brother.

In that case, what else did Christina not understand? Frank had transferred the shares of Grand Manor. “Thank you. I was just joking. Let’s go up.”

They walked into the private room.

Christina did not sit down. Instead, she stood politely and waited for the elders to take their seats before sitting down. She really planned to treat them to a meal. She handed the menu to the Turner family. In Christina’s opinion, the Turner family were guests and she should be a gracious host.

“Feel free to order anything you want.”

The more Emma saw how polite Christina was, the more she liked her. She was really polite, not the kind of politeness that was faked. Christina was also very discerning and knew who to take care of. “Thank you.”

She picked up the menu and ordered a few dishes. She pushed the menu to Grace, and Grace directly gave the menu to Ava. “Ava, order, what you like.”

Ava took the menu from Grace and said, “Thank you, Grace.” She asked Frank to help her mark the dishes they wanted to

eat.

Christina was surprised by Frank’s act of pampering the little girl. It was really rare for a person who usually had the same face as Trevon to be as gentle as he was now.

Frank picked up a pen and placed a tick next to Ava’s favorite dishes. He also ordered his mother’s favorite dishes. He gave the menu to Christina. “That’s all.”

Just as Christina was about to give the menu to Joseph, Joseph spoke first. “I’m not picky. You can do as you please.”

Actually, Emma had already ordered Joseph’s favorite dishes. There was no need for Joseph to order again.

In that case, Christina didn’t force it. She closed the menu and handed it to the waiter standing at the side.

Not long after, the dishes were served one by one. Grace said to Ava, “Ava, help yourself.”

“Oh, thank you, Grace.”

Christina watched in silence. It seemed that there was none of the common conflicts that existed between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law there. Didn’t they say that mother-in-laws were their daughter-in-law’s natural enemies?

Her mother always complained about the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in television dramas. She also always expressed her own opinion on them. A small part of the reason why Christina didn’t want to get married came from her mother.

Her mother had overanalyzed the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. It seemed to Christina that it was an enmity that had existed eons ago.

Frank had already put on disposable gloves and was slowly separating the meat from the shells of crab and prawns for Ava. The Turner family people were already used to this and were happy for their daughter to be pampered like this.

It was impossible for Christina not to be envious of such an atmosphere. She was the eldest in the family, so she was naturally placed in the role of the eldest sister who had to take care of her younger siblings.

Sometimes, even if she didn’t want to grow up, she had to force himself to grow up. On the other hand, the Yamin family treated all of the children equally instead of favoring one of them.
