As her hand was interlocked with Trevon’s under the table, she could not go up to Joseph to greet him. She could only say, Ava Joseph is here”

Ava was eating her cake when she heard what Natalie said. Her face immediately lit up as she briske into a smile. She ran up to Joseph and took his hand, pouting in an endearing demeanor Joseph, why are you only here now The barbecue is almost over: Do you want to be the closing act of the event and take all the limelight

Joseph stroked Ava’s head with the other hand and smiled affectionately “Hey, I rushed over without even changing my clothes. Can you forgive me for coming late”

Ava took a few steps back and scrutinized Joseph’s outti. “All right, I shall pardon you this time “

When Natalie saw Joseph approaching the pavilion, she broke free from Trevon’s grip and shot burn a warning look. Joseph, are you done with your busy schedule

Joseph replied. “Yes, I’m free now.”

He walked over to Jasper and carried him in his arms before turning to Trevon. “Mr Wilson, have you recovered from your injuries?”

Trevon did not think much about what Joseph was insinuating He merely replied. “Thank you for your concern. Joseph. Im feeling much better now.”

Trevon nodded. “Yes. Ill bear that in mund”
