Chapter 208


    Joseph waited for a while.


    Then he said gently, “Come in and take a seat. You shouldn’t be scared to say anything to me. Did Ava


    attack someone’sputer against night? You don’t have to hide it from me. I could tell from her


    eyes.”


    He deliberately used Ava’s matter to ease the tension.


    As expected, Natalie smiled awkwardly and scratched her neck in embarrassment. ‘She just yed


    around. She didn’t do anything major.”


    Joseph brought Natalie into the room. Then, he went to pour a cup of hot water for her to warm up. “Tell


    me. We’re a family and there’s nothing that needs to be thought through before you can say it.”


    Natalie sat down on the sofa with a ss of water in her handl. She took a deep breath and said, “I


    want to tell you about Jasper’s father.”


    Joseph pushed up the gold-rimmed sses he had just put on, adding a hint of elegance to his


    handsome features. He looked veryfortable and easy to approach. He crossed his legs and smiled


    slightly. “Is it Mr. Wilson of Athana, Trevon Wilson?”


    After knowing that Trevon had been to Sapphire City 175 times without being able to see Natalie, she


    had guessed that Joseph would find out. However, she was still a little shocked to hear it with her own


    ears. “Joseph, when did you find out?”


    Joseph looked up as if he was thinking. “The second week after I learned that you’re my cousin.”


    Yes. Joseph was right. At that time, the entire family was very excited to find Natalie. They carefully


    protected her, afraid that their excitement would scare her away. At that time, Natalie had not opened


    up fully to them, nor did she tell them about her pregnancy immediately.


    The second week after they met, Natalie felt a little nauseous. Emma discovered this and found out


    that she was pregnant.


    Natalie didn’t expect it to be so early. It had been more than two years now, but Joseph and the others


    hadn’t ever asked about Jasper’s father.


    Back in Sapphire City, Emma and the others had taken good care of her and Sherri when they found


    out they were pregnant. They even went to Athana just to bring her two nannies.


    They were afraid that Natalie would not be used to it and feel ufortable.


    However, they had never asked about Trevon.


    Joseph adjusted his sses again and put his legs down. He sat up straight and said slowly, “Natalie, I


    won’t ask as long as you don’t bring it up. You have your own considerations. Whether it’s me or your


    uncle, we can’t interfere with you. However, if anyone wants to marry you, they have to get our family’s


    approval first.


    “Whether it’s Ava or you, we can give you financial support even if you don’t want to get married. If you


    do love someone, I won’t stop you either However, there’s a prerequisite. He has to show us his


    sincerity in marrying you. The daughter of the Tuerner family has the ability to pick and choose,


    understand?”


    The walls Natalie put up around her heart broke down again, Joseph had always doted on her so much


    that he had no bottom line. Natalie had cried too much today and was extremely touched too. “I


    understand now,” she said, voice nasally from the crying


    Joseph sat beside her and patted her head. He handed her a tissue. “You’re dating him.” It was a


    statement, not a question.


    Natalie didn’t hide it anymore and nodded.


    Joseph recalled that the bodyguard had said that Trevon had bought a helmet a few days ago. It


    seemed that he was quite generous with money. “If he has any bad habits, don’t spoil him. You have


    the Turner family behind you. You don’t have to suffer in any way.”


    The rtionship was Natalie’s own. Since they were already together, it meant that Natalie had a


    special part of her heart for Trevon Joseph couldn’t forcefully break them up. He wouldn’t make things


    difficult for Natalie either, since Trevon was Jasper’s biological father, after all. However, things couldn’t


    be settled so easily.


    Natalie wanted to verify the 173 visits. Although her grandpa and Hackett both said so, she still wanted


    to hear it from Joseph. “Did Trevon visit Sapphire City to look for me?” she asked.


    Joseph knew that his sister would find out sooner orter. Trevon had been quite punctual every


    month. His perseverance was not bad either. He had persisted for more than two years. This was one


    of the reasons why Joseph did not make things difficult for him.


    He admitted truthfully, “Yes, he did, but I stopped him.”


    At least it could be seen that Trevon cared about Natalie too.


    Natalie understood. She didn’t me Joseph and she had to thank him instead.


    “Are you mad at me!” Josephs asked.


    Natalie immediately shook her head. ‘It’s not your fault. I have to thank Then, she smiled at Joseph.


    They chatted for another ten minutes in Joseph’s room. When Natalie came out, she was refreshed.


    She had opened uppletely and now, she felt extremely carefree. She had finally let go of the


    matter that she had been suppressing for so long.


    When she returned to her room, Ava, Jasper, and Ruby were ying games. Ava’sugh would stream


    out from time to


    time.


    Sherri heard the door open and quietly walked to the living room. “Don’t tell me you went to confess to


    Joseph.


    “Yes, you’re right.”


    Sherri was worried and curious at the same time. “How was it? Does Joseph ept Trevon?”


    Natalie thought back to Joseph’s words. As she changed into the hotel slippers, she said, “I don’t think


    so. Joseph said that the Turner family’s daughter is not so easy to marry. Trevon needs to show her


    sincerity.”


    Sherri kept shaking her head. “Tsk, sk, 1sk. Maybe I should show Trevon some sympathy. It won’t be


    easy for him to remarry you.”


    If Trevon couldn’t handle his brother-inw, he probably wouldn’t be able to remarry Natalie.


    Later, they went down to the restaurant.


    At the dining table, Daniel smiled and said, “Natalie, I will head back tomorrow.”


    Natalie’s hand paused in the air. Didn’t you say that you would stay for a few more days?” she asked in


    confusion. “I haven’t brought you guys out to sightsee yet.”


    This made Ava anxious too. She put down her fork and said, “Dad, you lied to me again! You clearly


    told me to stay in Athana for half a month. It’s only the second day today. I’ve already arranged the rest


    of my sses. You’re very annoying.


    like this.”


    Not only Natalie but even Sherri was surprised. This decision was a little sudden.


    Emma patted her husband’s hand and looked at her angry daughter. She exined, “Daddy didn’t ask


    you to go back. We would never go back on our word. Mommy and Daddy will go back first. There has


    to be someone at thepany. Joseph will apany you here.”


    When Ava heard this, her darkened eyes instantly lit up again. She nodded furiously, and her


    previously pouting lips had already curved into a smile.


    Natalie was still reluctant to let her uncle and aunt leave.


    However, the Turner Group was argepany. It was fine to not have a main decision-maker for a


    day, but it was indeed impossible for him to be gone for half a month. Natalie tried to persuade him to

    stay for a few more days. “Uncle Daniel, can’t you stay for a few more days?”


    Daniel’s main purpose foring this time was to see his sister’s grave. The most important thing had


    already been done, so the rest was left to Joseph. “Next time, I will arrange everything in advance and


    nagging him. “Alright, I’ll send you to the airport tomorrow.” “There’s no need to send us off. Einma


    said, refusing. Jasper and Ruby both need to sleep, so don’t bother. It’s not like you won’t see us again.


    We cane over anytime we want”


    “Don’t worry, I’ll see them off tomorrow,” Joseph said.


    After dinner, Natalie asked Ethan for the car key. Since Ethan drove the car on the way here, it was


    naturally at his ce.


    She went to the Athana specialty mall and bought a lot of things.


    Emma and Daniel came to Natalie’s room to give final instructions to Ava. The couple stood at the door


    and rang the doorbell.


    It was Ava who opened the door. She skipped over and tilted her head. “Daddy, Mommy.”


    Emina pinched her daughter’s face dotingly. She looked around and asked, “Where’s Natalie! Has she


    gone out?”


    Ava kept nodding. “Natalie said that there are many specialties here that are especially delicious. She


    went to pick some for you to try


    Emma was touched. “She didn’t even tell us,” sheined good-naturedly. “Why does she rush


    around so much?”


    Daniel nodded in agreement. “Natalie is a meticulous child. You’re obviously very happy.”


    Emma said gently, “How can I not be happy? I just feel bad that this child has to run out sote at


    night”


    “Don’t worry, someone is following her,” Daniel said. “Natalie is an adult too. She has her own ideas.”


    tomorrow.”


    After he said that, Jasper cooperated and kissed Daniel’s left cheek.


    Ava also wanted a kiss. “Aunt Ava too. Jasper, hurry up and kiss Aunt Ava.”


    There was another smooching sound. Soon, the entire suite was filled with smooches. There was


    Jasper kissing Ava, Ava kissing Jasper and Ruby, and Emma kissing Jasper. The atmosphere was


    warm and harmonious, with a hint of reluctance.
