Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Forty-five minutes later, Ruby's car arrived at Grand Manor's parking space, followed by Jasper's car, parked next door.

They got out of the car and went straight to the gym.

As soon as Olivia entered the gym, she invited Liam, who had been defeated by her, to compete. She touched the boxing gloves on the shelf and invited, "Want to fight?" Liam was in a bad mood and refused without hesitation. "No, | just want to have a good meal. Let's play darts." The other party was not like a girl at all. Besides, they might hurt each other if they had a boxing match. If the corners of their mouths cracked, they would have a problem eating later. He only wanted to have a beautiful meal and return to school tomorrow.

How could he face others with a swollen face? Olivia urged, "Alright, then let's use darts. Let's go. Let's go. What are you waiting for?" Olivia urged Liam and added, "No wonder Sophia nicknamed you Dawdler Blackwell." At this moment, Liam did not want to talk. He glared at Olivia beside him and followed her to the darts and shooting venue.

As soon as she heard that there was a competition, Nona pulled Cyril's wrist and dragged him to the shooting range. "Cyril, let's go watch the competition. It will be fun.” Cyril didn't want to go, but Nona wanted, so there was nothing he could do about it. In his opinion, the competition between Olivia and Liam always ended up with Olivia winning easily. Just like what Jasper said, the beginning was the result.

After they left, only Ruby and Jasper were left at the entrance of the gym.

"What do you want to play?" He was standing behind her. He could smell her special shampoo when he lowered his head. It was pleasant and fragrant.

When he lowered his head again, his lips could touch her bun. She turned around and looked up at him, her eyes shining. "I want to play the piano." "Okay." Jasper nodded.

They walked to the piano room, and Ruby sat down. Jasper leaned lazily against the side of the piano and looked at her directly.

"Why didn't you continue practicing the piano and dance in university?" She knew he would ask, so she smiled and put her hands on the keys. Instead of answering Jasper, she pressed a few keys with her fingers, and then a song that had accompanied them for countless years sounded in the piano room.

The song was beautiful. Ruby's fingers were very long and very suitable for playing the piano. Her fingers danced nimbly on the keys. She did not need to look at the score because the song had already imprinted itself in her mind.

The beautiful song floated in the piano room. Every note struck Jasper's heart. He wanted to smoke, but when he touched his pocket and realized he did not bring it, he stuffed his hand into his pocket and listened carefully.

She looked beautiful when she played the piano. She was very engrossed and intoxicated. What she wanted to express in the score was fully expressed by her. He could feel it.

After the song ended, Ruby stopped playing and pressed the keys. She smiled and looked up to answer Jasper's question.

After a moment of silence, Jasper said simply, "Yes, it's pretty good. As long as you like it." Ruby continued saying, "I quite like it and enjoy it. | feel a sense of accomplishment whenever they wear what | designed. This is a feeling | can't find on the piano and dance. Jasper, what do you think?" After saying that, she smiled slightly.

this, Ruby came back to her senses. Then, she said with a rare sense of humor, "Mr. Trevon told me the normal ending." As soon as Liam came in, he heard Ruby say that. He asked angrily, "Are you my biological sister?" Nona was amused. "Aha, Mr. Trevon is so humorous." Jasper retracted his gaze. The two people who came in were still pushing and fighting. It was obvious that the losing party was not satisfied. "You're so fucking spirited today,”

Nona automatically understood. "Alright, I'll be more obedient in the future. Cyril, don't make Jasper angry. He's the biggest here. There's pressure. He was withstanding the pressure when he brought us out. If you don't do well in the exam, Daddy will scold Mr. Trevon."™" Cyril, who didn't do anything but was

She replied with a mouthful of food in her mouth. It was a little hot. She fanned it with her hand. "I'll go tomorrow morning. | don't have class tomorrow morning. | can make it.
