Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 325

It was the second day after Frank had been locked up.

Natalie and Trevon moved back to the Wilson’s residence. Theo missed Jasper and had asked Natalie to stay with the Wilsons for several days.

Natalie would not object. Theo treated her as if she was his own granddaughter.

Trevon personally drove Natalie to work. He held her hand while driving with one hand. As Trevon turned the steering wheel. Lily’s phone rang inappropriately. It was a video call from Ava.

Ava had woken up early in the morning. Natalie remembered Ava telling her she did not have morning classes. Natalie picked up the phone with one hand and smiled while saying. “Ava, you’re up so early. Didn’t you say that there were no classes in the morning…

Before Natalie could finish, Ava interrupted her rudely for the first time and anxiously asked, “Sister, have you seen Frank in the past two days? I can’t reach him. Can you help me ask Trevon if something happened to Frank?”

On the night Frank got off the plane, he did say that he may not check his messages. However, he had not replied to her messages all day. This made Ava, who was in Sapphire City, panic. She thought Frank had returned to Athana hurriedly. Now that he was missing, something might have happened. Ava, who had always had good sleep quality, had insomnia last night. She waited and only verified it with Natalie at this time.

Ava decided not to call Natalie. She was afraid that her sister would not tell the truth. Video calls allowed her to see if Natalie was avoiding her gaze.

Natalie turned to look at the man who was driving seriously with a slight smile on his face. It was difficult to hide it now. Natalie cleared her throat and said, “Ahem… Ava, something happened to Frank, but it’s not a big problem. It will be resolved soon. Don’t worry. He didn’t want you to be worried, so he avoided telling you. Trevon said Frank will be fine in a few days.” After Ava’s suspicion was verified, her beautiful eyes became misty as she held back her tears and said, “I understand, Sister.”

“Sleep a little longer. I’m going to work. Don’t overthink. It’ll be fine soon,” Natalie replied.

Natalie comforted Ava repeatedly, afraid that her sister would overthink.

Ava, who was not in a good mood, said gloomily. “Sure.”

After hanging up, Natalie became worried. She turned his head and asked Trevon, “Can Frank come out today? Ava is already anxious. I’m afraid that if Frank doesn’t come out soon, Ava will fly over.”

Trevon chuckled. “Don’t worry. With Frank’s personality, do you think he can make Ava worry for so long? If he doesn’t come out today, the Roberts family will make a move. I’ll give it 48 hours at most.”

Upon hearing Trevon’s words, Natalie calmed down. Soon, the car arrived at the entrance of the hospital. Trevon unbuckled his seatbelt and pecked Natalie on the lips. He said, “Honey, I’ll pick you up after work.”

Natalie was used to the stickiness when they parted. She returned a kiss and said, ‘Goodbye, Mr. Wilson.”

As Frank and Trevon expected, the second-generation nouveau riche who insisted that Lithern Club had sold him the drug changed his statement. He changed his accusations even though nobody had threatened him. Frank also stayed in prison obediently for two days.

The second-generation nouveau riche claimed he had consumed drugs before entering Lithern Club. He always had this hobby but lied to avoid being investigated.

Meanwhile, Frank’s calmness puzzled many because he did not use underhand methods to solve the issue.

At 3:30 p.m., Frank strode out of the police station. A black Maybach was parked at the entrance. The driver in the car did not get out. Instead, he opened the window and shouted at Frank, “You’re out rather fast.”

Frank opened the door of the front passenger seat without saying anything and got in as if it was his car. Frank said, “Your intel is quite accurate. How many minutes have you waited?”
