Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 539

The huge cantéen was spacious and bright. Many colleagues were already eating in it. Some were chewing slowly, some were gulping down their food, and some were gossiping before eating.

Seeing Natalie bring her son in, a few colleagues quickly put down their plates and enthusiastically wanted to greet her. “Hey, Natalie, is that your son? He’s so handsome.”

Her colleague half-squatted and reached out to hug Jasper. However, they respected Jasper very much and asked for permission first. “Can I hug you?”

The other young lady also liked children very much. “Can I carry you?”

Not long after.

Many people surrounded Jasper. Even a few seniors wanted to hug him. Jasper had been well taken care of by Theo. He had gained a lot of weight and was chubby. However, it could not hide the handsome genes on his body. His long eyelashes fluttered.

Jasper refused mercilessly. “No.”

Then, he hid on Natalie’s shoulder and stopped turning his head, afraid that the aunties and uncles would carry her away.

Ruby was already being carried by a young girl. Natalie apologized, “I’m sorry, this child is more shy. It’ll be fine once he’s familiar with you.”

“It’s okay. I won’t carry you anymore. This is good. It’s safe. You won’t be carried away by strangers. Your protective awareness is not bad. You’re really handsome.” She did not forget to praise Jasper at the end.

Natalie did not refute his son’s good looks because he was indeed quite handsome. Excessive modesty was simply hypocritical.

The few of them found a seat by the window and sat down. Sherri asked Rose to sit down and not move. Then, she asked Ruby to sit at the side while she and Natalie went to get some food.

At the dining table, Rose pulled out a tissue and said to the two little guys, “Watch carefully and see how I wipe the table. If you want to eat, you have to do it yourselves, understand? We have to help Mommy. Mommy is very tired from working.” Ruby nodded. She took a piece of tissue and began to wipe it according to Rose’s rhythm. However, Jasper did not move at all. He did not listen to Rose’s lies at all. It was as if she did not say anything to him.

Rose saw more and more Trevon in Jasper. She said, “Hey, kid, are you pretending to be cold to me? Do you not even listen/ to Aunt Rose anymore?”

Jasper rolled her eyes. “Auntie, it’s quite clean.”

Rose looked at the clean table and choked. She only did this to tell them to help when they were eating.

Sherri and Natalie came over with the dishes. The two of them chatted and laughed. Two plates were placed on the table. Natalie turned around and went to get food again. There were a total of three plates.

After placing the last plate on the table, Natalie smiled and said, “Don’t tell people that you didn’t have enough to eat here. If it’s not enough, I’ll go get more.”

Rose teased and gave her a thumbs-up. “You really can do whatever you want in your own cafeteria, awesome.”

Ruby didn’t know what Rose meant. She learned from her aunt and gave Natalie a thumbs-up. “Awesome.”

Natalie said, “My goddaughter knows the word awesome? That’s great. Hehe, quickly eat. Tell me what you want to eat, okay?”

Seeing the familiar pizza on the table, Rose asked in confusion, “Do you have such a pizza every day?”

Natalie took out the dishes from the plate and handed the macaroni to the two little guys. She replied, “Yes, isn’t it winter now? There must be pizza.”

Sherri bit on the fork, narrowed her eyes and pondered for a few seconds. With one hand supporting her cheek, she said, “You guys… Don’t you think this pizza looks familiar?”

Natalie sat down beside her son and picked up some food for him to eat. “Isn’t it the kind we ate in the hospital previously? Isn’t this the same? What’s the difference?”

“Let me try it and see if there’s any difference.” Rose picked up a fork and picked up a piece for the two little guys. Then, she picked up a piece for herself. It was steaming hot. She reminded the children beside her, “It’s a little hot. Blow on it before eating.”
