Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 257

Frank sent Rose back to Deepwater Bay. However, instead of going in together, he turned around and drove away

At the entrance of the villa in Deepwater Bay, Rose looked at the back of the Porsche that was getting further and further away: She fell into deep thought. The car had already disappeared. She stood at the door in a daze for a long time before opening the door and entering the villa

The Porsche left the downtown area and drove in a familiar direction. After driving for about 50 minutes, the car gradually. entered an area surrounded by large green plants. Grass covered half the lawn. Further in, one could see the courtyard, garden, pool, vegetable garden. The layout of every area had been planned out well.

It was obvious that the designer had spent a lot of effort. It also showed that the owner was picky with his tastes,

The car stopped steadily in the parking spot in front of the villa. Frank unbuckled his seatbelt and got out.

As soon as he got out of the car, he was almost deafened by a thunderous sound. “Good afternoon, Mr. Roberts.”

The villa was like a fortress, surrounded by bodyguards. There were high-definition cameras covering the entire villa, with no blind spots. The Roberts family had built their fortune in a gray market, and it was inevitable that they would offend many people.

Frank took off his sunglasses and hung them on the collar in front of his chest. He put his hands in his pockets and looked at the two rows of bodyguards. He said, “I know you’ve eaten your fill. You don’t have to shout so loudly. Who are you trying to scare?”

“Understood, Mr. Roberts.”

Frank was speechless.

He stopped caring and strode into the villa. Today, he was not only here to solve the problem, but also to take precautions.

He looked around the living room and the room on the second floor. He had not been back for the old man’s birthday, he had sent his gift to the Roberts Group instead of returning home. year. Previously, during

The butler of the Roberts family villa hurriedly came out to welcome Frank when he saw him enter. He stood respectfully at the side. “Mr. Roberts, you’re back. I’ll go inform Madam now.”

Frank simply grunted in agreement.

Not long after, a woman in a pink suit walked down from the second floor. It was impossible to tell her age. She had shoulder-length hair that was tied into a low ponytail, which made her look very capable. The first impression she gave off was her overbearing aura. There was no expression on her face. Even if there was one, it was cold and proud.

She slowly walked down the stairs in her high heels and said indifferently. “What brings you back?”

Frank turned a deaf ear and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. He took one out with his mouth and lit it up. Then, he crossed his legs and placed his hands on the back of the leather sofa. “Do you want a cigarette?”
