Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chris frowned and looked at the full glass of red wine before him and was speechless. He didn't plan on getting drunk, especially since he couldn't handle much alcohol. But this girl mistook it for blueberry juice and poured a large glass. Why couldn't she drink it herself? He said, "Can't you pour less? No one was going to snatch it from you." Stella happily took a sip of the blueberry juice and replied, "How would | know? We were chatting, and | poured without paying attention. Oh, it's fine. Whether it's one glass or two, it's all good. Don't waste it. Frank said this wine is expensive. Let's appreciate it." Despite feeling helpless, Chris still decided to drink the red wine. He rolled his eyes at his sister and placed the wine to his right.

Rose was overjoyed. Her mouth constantly chattered, and everyone had smiles on their faces, exchanging words of blessing.

Ava praised, saying, "Sis, you have no idea how amazing Sophia and Olivia's riding skills were. They're so cool." After saying that, she couldn't help but give a thumbs-up.

Natalie said, "Don't praise them. Otherwise, they'll be riding the bikes from morning till night tomorrow.” Frank glanced at Trevon. Most likely, this guy indulged them. If he had daughters, he might spoil them the same way, treating them like princesses.

Not long after, the sounds of quarrel came from the stage. Everyone looked over and found Trevon's daughter and Hackett's son were fighting. Most importantly, Hackett's son was pinned down by Trevon's daughter.

However, they hadn't really started fighting. They were just locked in a position. Hackett's son couldn't move and had been preparing to retaliate. Jasper forcefully lifted his sister and said angrily, "That's enough.” Sophia shook her hair, tidying it with a demeanor that suggested she wouldn't take a loss. "He pushed me." Ruby apologized on behalf of her younger brother. She saw her younger brother impulsively pushing Sophia just now, so it was his fault. After Liam pushed Sophia, he still couldn't win against Sophia in a fight. It made Ruby feel embarrassed. "Sophia, sorry, Liam is very naughty. I'l talk to my dad. Please don't be mad." Sophia still liked Ruby as Ruby was always kind and gentle. She gave some face to Ruby and generously said, "It's okay." However, Hackett's son was still unsatisfied and wanted to fight again. Ruby pulled him back. "Go find Dad." Liam was upset about losing the fight. He wanted to fight again. He tilted his head and said furiously, "No." After a while, the adults from both families came to the stage. There were parents, grandparents, and so many people. Ruby didn't know how to explain in front of them.

Jasper counted the number of people and made a suggestion, saying, "Let's check the surveillance.” After all, it would be too tiring to explain.

Today's situation was different. The Roberts family had set up high-definition cameras in various corners, all connected to their phones. Frank opened his phone and watched the footage for a few minutes with Trevon and Hackett. Then, they understood what had happened.

Initially, the twins were playing in the carriage, and Liam also wanted to join. Olivia pulled Sophia down. Perhaps Liam was teasing Sophia when he grabbed her ponytail while getting on the carriage. However, Sophia didn't like others touching her hair.

hair was styled by her father, so she firmly slapped the back of Liam's hand. He didn't like it and pushed Sophia. Eventually, Sophia, with her temper flaring, retaliated and pinned him down. She was in a manner that conveyed a message of "Are you going to give in?" After watching the whole incident, Trevon's lips curled slightly. He smiled faintly and did not make any comments. Usually, this was how he taught his two daughters. When others bullied them, they had to know how to

Nathan was about to bring Ruby down, but she refused. She said, "Grandpa, I'll watch my brother up here. You go ahead and eat." Juana was

She only saw her useless father shamefully blinking, showing no intention to assist. Sensing the situation, Sophia tactfully lowered her head and admitted her mistake without waiting for Natalie to criticize her. "Mom, | was wrong. Liam, I'm sorry." Natalie was speechless for a moment. With Sophia's sudden change of attitude, she

tilted his head and snickered at the side. Natalie caught this action and

She continued eating, saying, "Looks like we need to find a coach for Liam. If he grows up and falls for a fierce girl, he'll be beaten to death.” Rose gave a thumbs-up to Sherri. "You're really my mother. You're thinking too far ahead." Sherri replied, "Of course, right, Hackett?" Hackett wasn't actually angry. He only gave a suggestion. "Can you make Sophia act more like a lady? Like my daughter Ruby?" Trevon refused to admit his daughter was fierce and retorted, "What's good for her to become a fragile lady? Can she earn more money by being one?" Hackett was actually speechless. He couldn't help but wonder why being a lady had to do with earning more money. And why did Trevon mention it? Regaining his senses, Hackett argued that the two
