Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)

Chapter 556

Edward walked into the room under everyone’s gaze. When he saw his wife doing the strange dance,

he was slightly dumbfounded. He quickly picked up the phone and turned off the music that had been

playing on a loop.

The music ended abruptly.

The moment Rose turned around, she only had one thought. She wished she was on another planet

right then.

“Fuck! Is there anyone more fucking embarrassed than me right now?” she thought as she shuddered.

She braced herself and smiled awkwardly. “Mom. Everyone… Hello….. I… I… I’m just playing some

music to help nurture children from a young age. Yes. It’s to help the baby.” She laughed awkwardly.

She didn’t even believe what she said.

She felt so awkward that her face was incredibly red now. If one touched her face, they might think she

was having a fever.

Her eyes met Edward’s. It was as though she was speaking to him. “Why didn’t you call out to me?”

Edward replied with a look, “I just came up too. I didn’t see because they were in the way.”

Rose stared at him. “I feel so awkward,” her eyes seemed to say.

“Let’s go in and see the child,” Grace said to ease the awkward atmosphere.

With that said, everyone entered the room at the same time and headed in the direction of the cradle.

Edward helped Rose adjust the blanket and let her lie back down. “Rose, come here.”

Then, he turned around and went to the bathroom. He took a wet towel and wiped Rose’s face. “Is

there anywhere else that’s sticky?”

Rose pulled the blanket up high. She still had not recovered from the social suicide she had

experienced just now. The dark history could not be erased from everyone’s mind. She shook her

head.

Joy left not long after. During that time, she kept praising Rose’s baby for having good genes. Before

she left, she even gave them a card. Juana was too embarrassed to accept it, but Joy insisted that they

had to accept it.

She secretly said that William and Charlie were extremely competitive and they could not be stingy.

After Juana understood the situation, she grinned and asked Rose to accept it. Rose took the card.

Everyone had been so generous that she felt overwhelmed. She thanked her politely.

After everyone left, only Edward and Rose were left in the room.

Grace was urged by Rose to return to her room to rest. Rose’s phone was forcibly confiscated by

Edward because Rose often secretly sent messages to chat with Natalie and the others.

Rose began to act cute. She smiled at Edward, who was helping the child tidy up the blanket. However,

there was something she wanted out of this. “Hubby, can I chat for a while?”

Edward thought that Rose wanted to chat with him and quickly agreed. “Sure. What do you want to talk

about?”

“Can I look at my phone for 15 minutes? I’ll return it to you when the time is up, okay?” Rose took on

her drama queen persona and started acting cute before him.

Edward thought, “So I am thinking too much and have mistakenly thought that she wanted to chat with

me.”

Even though he knew that Rose’s pitiful appearance was an act, Edward still couldn’t resist and

agreed. “Alright. 15 minutes. You can’t try to drag on when the time is up. You can’t go back on your

word.”

“Okay. Am I that kind of person? I’m very trustworthy.” When she said this, Rose felt guilty. After all, she

had never been trustworthy. It was like this when she watched television dramas during her pregnancy,

and it was also like this when she secretly played with her phone.

She had no credibility to speak of. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Edward took a pillow and placed it behind Rose’s back. It was a

hamburger pillow and it was a gift from Emma. “You can’t lie down while you are on your phone. Sit up

while you’re using it for a while.” With that, he handed the phone that was hidden in the drawer to

Rose.

Rose handed Joy’s card to Edward. “Here. You can hide this too.”

“I’ll put it in the safe. I also put the card that Trevon gave there.”

“Alright. Besides, I don’t need it now anyway.” Rose turned on her phone and began to share her happy

mood and the matter of her social suicide. She glanced at Edward and opened up a group chat.

[Everyone, let me

tell you about something I had done that made me so embarrassed that I wish I could transmigrate.

This is first on the list of things I’ve done that made me wish I could turn back time.]

Sherri instantly leaped at it. She could tell something was up. [You ran naked? Did you forget to put on

your clothes when you go downstairs?] Natalie texted, [Is there nothing useful in that brain of yours?]

Sherri typed, [She’s already so embarrassed that she wants to transmigrate. What do you think it is if

it’s not running naked? I’m already thinking about positive things, really. She can’t possibly pee while

standing, right?]

Rose said, [How did you know that my childhood wish was to pee while standing?]

She had only told Edward about this. “Could it be that Edward had shared it with Sherri?” she

wondered.

That shouldn’t be the case. Edward was very tight-lipped.

Everyone in the group was momentarily stunned into silence. Natalie was the first to break it. [Your

wish is really different. Very impressive.]

She also included a big thumb pointing at Rose.

In the end, Rose was afraid that Edward would come to collect her phone. She urged him, “Go take a

shower first. When you come out, I’ll give you my phone. I promise I won’t stall for time. I mean what I

say.”

When he saw the pledge that she was making, Edward looked at her helplessly and indulgently. He

cooperatively took his pajamas into the bathroom to take a shower.

After Edward entered the bathroom, Rose quickly told the group about her scene of social suicide.

Then, the group was silent. No one said. anything. It made Rose think that everyone had left.

She continued to type out. [Did you hear the voice message I sent? Don’t you think I’m embarrassed? I

was so embarrassed that I wanted to transmigrate and die on the spot.]

Ava texted, [The point is why you danced this dance?]

Any elegant dancer or street dancer wouldn’t be so embarrassed if they were caught dancing. They

could just imagine the scene of Rose dancing the Little Bear Dance.

Everyone was waiting for Rose to give them the reason. Rose responded truthfully, [Because my son

doesn’t make a fuss when he hears this music. I was also temporarily swept along and wanted to

dance for a while.]

In the end, they laughed at her through the chat until their stomachs ached. Natalie even shared this

matter with Trevon. Trevon forthrightly said that it would be abnormal if Rose did not dance to it.

The few of them began to comfort her. Ava said, [It’s fine. They will only think that you’re more lively

and cute. They won’t feel awkward. Think positively.]

Natalie piped up, [Pull yourself together and shrug it off. Where’s your courage? You can learn from

Sherri. Then you’ll know that what you’ve done is nothing at all.]

Sherri texted, [What are you saying? Are you casting aspersions about me? Do you still want to get

along with me, Natalie? Forget it. I’ll ease your embarrassment since you’re my sister-in-law and you

just gave birth.]

Sherri’s next message was, [Let me tell you something even worse than that. After hearing about mine,

you will definitely not feel like you just committed social suicide anymore.]

Natalie cooperatively replied, [Come on. Let’s hear about it.]

Sherri sent a get-the-fuck-out emoji, but for the sake of Rose’s feelings, she continued to share it. [I

was researching having a happy sexual life with Hackett a few days ago and I found a lot of seductive

moves and things to say to promote our sex life on an app that broadcasted videos. After dinner, my

mother-in-law wanted to watch the television drama she usually watched, but it was actually due.]

Sherri continued, [That’s the television show that my mother-in-law must watch at night. I quickly said

that I would use my phone to project it on the screen for her to watch. But in the end, I accidentally

projected the erotic videos that I often watch onto the television in the living room. Next thing I know…

Well, you can imagine what happened after that yourself. I don’t think there’s any need for me to

elaborate.]

Natalie was already laughing. She covered her mouth and laughed as she shared it with Trevon. When

he heard about it, Trevon was also amused by how careless Sherri was. He even said that she was the

clown of the Blackwell family.

12:37

After reading Sherri’s message, Rose could already imagine the awkward scene where the members of

the Blackwell family saw what was playing on the television screen.

However, something even more embarrassing happened next. Christina, who had been accompanying

Joseph while he worked overtime, replied with a message. [This group chat is so lively today.]

When Rose saw this message, she thought that she was seeing things. She rubbed her eyes. It was

then that she saw the nickname of the group clearly. She had planned to send it to the Fairy Fortress

group chat. “How did I end up sending it to the Women’s Congregation group chat?” she wondered

incredulously.

As for Sherri, she was so busy reading what was going on that she did not see it clearly. She quickly

sent a message to Natalie. [You didn’t even remind me that we were talking in the wrong group. What

would Rose think of me now? How embarrassing!]

Natalie texted, [I thought you wanted to share it with her, so I didn’t stop you from doing it.]

Sherri was furious. She didn’t reply to Natalie. “This wretched girl was doing it on purpose”, she

thought. [Ava, actually, I don’t usually do this. It’s just that… Well…. You know… Alright, this matter

actually happened.]

Christina knew that Sherri was embarrassed. She replied, [My phone has been vibrating and I didn’t

have time to check it. I accidentally cleared the phone’s chat history. What were you talking about just

now?]

Natalie really wanted to give Christina a thumbs up.

On Sapphire City’s side, Ava pushed open the study room door and replied, [Christina, we just chatted

for a while. Rose’s child is so cute.] Christina replied, [The baby is indeed very dashing. Ava has

already shown us a photo. Congratulations.]

The topic was diverted. Rose replied, [Thank you, Christina.]

When Edward came out of the bathroom, the conversation was forced to come to a halt. The first thing

he did when he came out was to reach out and ask Rose for her phone. “You can’t use it anymore.

Time is up. I’ll let you play more with it when you’re done with your postpartum recovery. It’s very

troublesome to wear glasses otherwise.”

“Oh, okay. I’ll give it to you then. Hubby, when will the baby wake up?”

The phone was handed to Edward. He muted it and hid it in the drawer.

He replied gently, “What’s wrong?”

Rose pointed at her chest. Edward did not understand. Rose said, “I’m full of milk again. It might be

because I drank a lot of creamy potato soup at night.”

Edward said, “Then, should I wake the baby up?”

Sherri did not have any milk and used a lot of milk powder instead. Rose had compared the size of

their chests and assumed that she would not produce too much milk too, so she directly omitted the

breast pump.

Now, it seemed that there was no choice but to get someone to suck it out. But the only one who could

do it had fallen asleep again. Rose could not bear to wake up the sleeping baby, mainly because she

realized that her son was always very grumpy when he was woken up. He would wail incredibly loudly

and cry until he had enough.

She didn’t know who her son got the trait from. And as soon as he wailed, their parents would be

woken up.

A thought struck her. She was suddenly enlightened. “Hubby, why don’t you do it…”

-Edward stared at her.

Rose looked at Edward in a daze, waiting for Edward’s next move. Edward stood rooted to the ground,

looking a little at a loss. She began to urge, “I don’t know when the baby will wake up. If we forcefully

wake him up, he will cry. If he cries, our mothers will come over. If they always wake up at night with us,

their sleep quality will be very poor, right?”

She analyzed it seriously and tried to convince Edward. The main reason was that her breasts felt

really swollen and it was a little painful for her. “It’s actually very simple. It’s just like how you sucked

milk when you were a baby. You can suck it the same way you did when you were young.”

Edward took a deep breath. “People don’t remember their infanthood. How can I remember what I have

done when I was a baby?” he thought.
