Chapter 467
Originally, he simply wanted to stay in the bathtub. However, it seemed that things were not as simple
as Ava had thought. At this moment, they were studying why the water felt so soft, smooth, and
warm….
If there was an excess of love, it had the power to overflow from the bathtub, causing water to ssh
everywhere and continue its unending flow. It was a masterpiece in the making.
“I’m going to sleep. Good night,” Ava said, already exhausted. She closed her eyes in a daze and bid
Frank good night.
She quickly crawled into bed and drifted off to sleep.
Observing the tired expression on her face, Frank smiled contentedly. “Alright, time for bed. Good
night. I’ll assist you with changing into your pajamas.”
It was a peaceful and restful night’s sleep.
After Frank helped Ava get dressed, he carried her into a sweet dreand. It was reallyfortable to
sleep with a little girl hugging him.
Early the next morning.
Rose woke up early to have breakfast in the dining room. After eating, she stared at the staircase as
she packed her breakfast. “Isn’t my brother getting up to eat?
“If he were born in ancient times, he would have been a powerful wornanier. Just look at him; he
doesn’t even go to work. Sigh, I’m genuinely concerned. It seems like he hasn’t grown up yet.”
Rose muttered in frustration, grumbling about her brother’s habit of sleeping in and neglecting his work.
As an adult, William could easily understand why the two upstairs didn’t rush down immediately. He
coughed awkwardly, thinking that his daughter didn’t fullyprehend the situation. In reality, Rose
was simply venting her frustration out of boredom. After all, Ava had dressed like that the night before,
making it obvious that something was amiss.
William and Grace had no intention of continuing their daughter’s conversation.
William said, “Please, hurry up and get to work. Take some more.”
“That’s enough. He doesn’t eat much,” Rose declined William’s offer of pizza.
Grace nced at the breakfast in her daughter’s hand and did not say anything in the end.

After Rose left, William started talking. “Looks like we’re going to be grandparents soon, right?”
“Don’t overthink it. Your son won’t disrupt Ava’s studies. Let go of your unrealistic expectations.”
Just as William was feeling ted, Grace had the rug pulled out from under him. It felt like a bucket of
ice-cold water had been dumped on him, chilling his heart and snuffing out the hope that had just been
kindled.
William sighed heavily and looked helplessly in the direction of the staircase. It wasn’t entirely a good
thing that his son was too sensible. At least, not when it came to him being a grandfather. “Sigh.”
Outside the vi, in Edward’s car.
Rose got into the car and stuffed her breakfast into Edward’s hands. She took out her lipstick and
applied it to her lips, facing
the rearview mirror.
Afraid that Edward would be hungry and rush out, she did not put on any makeup.
Edward ate the breakfast while looking at Rose. Rose, who had put on makeup and lipstick, pursed her
lips several times. She put away the lipstick and ced it in her bag.
A finger pressed against Edward’s chin and raised his head. She asked with a charming gaze, “Do I
look good, Edward?”
Edward couldn’t react in time to her sudden coquettishness. He choked on the breakfast he had just
eaten. “Cough, cough…”
Seeing that his face was red from coughing, Rose did not have the mood to continue teasing him. She
quickly took the prepared coffee and handed it over to him. “I was just joking with you. Do you have to
choke from fright?”
She thought, “I didn’t do much just now. I just winked at him a few times and blinked a few times. Why
is he so fragile?”
“This was too bad. If she were a female demon in the television drama, would Edward be able to take
it?
“He definitely wouldn’t be able to take it.”
Edward took a few sips of coffee. He took the tissue from Rose and wiped the corner of his lips. “I’m
sorry, Rose. I lost myposure.”
It was mainly because Rose’s sudden coquettishness made Edward’s mind rush into some
inappropriate thoughts
However, he could not tell Rose the reason.

Rose was quick-witted. “What are you talking about? You don’t have to maintain your image in front of
me. We can do whatever we want. Don’t be tense. You… You have to live your own life. At the very
least, you have to stay away from Depressed Prince.”
Besides, who knew who would lose theirposure in front of whom?
The Roberts family’s vi.
Frank’s phone on the bedside table kept vibrating. Even the person in his arms frowned and moved.
“Frank, it’s a call.”
He turned sideways and reached out to take his phone to check. The person who didn’t know what was
good for him was his future brother-inw, Trevon Wilson. It was always unpleasant to be woken up
from a good sleep. He answered in an unfriendly tone, “Hello.”
On the other end of the line, Trevon could clearly hear the displeasure in Frank’s tone. Instead, he
smiled slyly. “Are you still harboring unfulfilled desires?”
Frank smiled yfully and retorted, “Who are you talking about? I’m not that horny.”
Trevon wasn’t angry. After all, he had three children. What was wrong with being horny? He said
smugly, “You only live once, you know.”
Frank instantly understood what he meant. He replied, saying he was just talking nonsense. “Seriously,
are you calling me just to ease me?”
He thought, “He has three children already, why does he have to tease me?”
Having gained the upper hand, Trevon didn’t waste any more time talking to Frank. He continued
discussing serious matters. “Come over for lunch at noon. Your future mother-inw and the others are
all here.
“Other than being your friend, I’m still your brother-inw. I have to call you by the way.”
Trevon implied that he wasn’t genuinely inviting Frank. This was just an act out of politeness.
Just as Frank was about to hang up, Trevon continued, “There’s no need to bring anything. The
Wilson’s residence doesn’tck anything.”
The polite words that came out of Trevon’s mouth had a different intention. He clearly wanted Frank to
feel at home and dine like a family member, but his words conveyed a different message.
Frankughed out loud. “I didn’t n to give you a gift. Is there anything else?”
“I’m hanging up. I’ll save on the phone bill. Milk powder is quite expensive.”
Frank thought, “Why do you have to mention your children again? Stop showing off man!”
After hanging up the phone, Frank felt wide awake. Hey on his side and looked at the little girl who
had been staring at him. He said gently, “Time to get up. Your brother wants us to go to the Wilson’s
residence for dinner.”
Ava patted Frank’s smooth arm. “Yeah, let’s hurry. Otherwise, it won’t be good if everyone waits for us
After speaking, Ava quickly sat up and patted Frank’s arm again to urge him to hurry up.
She was going to her sister’s house for dinner. Her sister’s husband was not the only one at home.
There were also other rtives. It would be rude if they werete.
The two of them dressed up as quickly as possible. Frank behaved like a gentlemanst night. He did
not leave marks on Ava’s neck. He knew his limits.
An hourter.

awkward
Upstairs, Emma was chatting with Natalie and looking after the child. Downstairs, Daniel and Theo
continued ying chess. while Rachel was preparing lunch in the kitchen.
In the courtyard, Trevon was ying with the remote control ne with his son. The toys were given by
Ava. Every time Ava came over, she would give Jasper a lot of toys. It was usually not just one but a
set.
For example, Transformers were aplete set, and the toy cars were also aplete set.
Jasper looked up at the ne flying in the air. His movements were agile, and his father’s hand
operating the remote control was smooth. The ne flew round and round in the air.
Jasper liked it and was eager to try. Trevon naturally noticed this. He squatted down and gathered his
son in his arms so that he could hold the remote control. Trevon covered his son’s small hand and
taught him how to operate the remote control step by step.
Because of the sense of participation, Jasper was especially happy. He grinned and was especially
happy. “Flying, Daddy, flying high…”
Trevon asked, “Higher?”
Jasper kept his hand on the remote control. “Yes, higher.”

With the help of Trevon, the ne flew higher and higher. Frank and Ava parked the car. When they
arrived at the courtyard, they saw this heartwarming scene.
Such a beautiful scene had to be recorded. Ava grabbed Frank, who was walking forward. “Frank, wait
a moment. I’ll take a photo of their heartwarming moment.” She wanted to send it to her sister so that
Jasper would know that his uncle cared for him very much in the future.
Frank was pulled and stopped in ce. For some reason, he felt a tinge of envy toward Trevon.
Click, click. After taking the photo, Ava jogged over to Jasper and stood beside him. “Trevon.”
Trevon lowered the ne’s altitude and slowlynded it on the ground. He let go of his son’s hand.
“Give it a try.”
“That’s quite fast,” he said to Frank.
Then she said, “Aunt, Lena and your sister are upstairs.”
Ava said, “Oh, then I’ll go look for my sister. Frank, chat with Trevon. I’ll go look for her.”
“Okay, go ahead.” They couldn’t be together all the time.
Frank squatted down and pinched Jasper’s face. “You can’t fly? It seems your father’s skills aren’t up to
par. How about I teach you?”
Jasper replied softly, “Okay.”
Then, Frank really picked up the remote control and exined to Jasper seriously, like a patient
teacher and a child listening attentively.
Someone had taken over Trevon’s job, so he was free. He put his hands in his pockets and said
indifferently, “I’ll let you do an internship in advance for free.”
No matter how calm his tone was, the smugness hidden in his words could still be heard.
Upstairs, Ava pushed the door open and entered. Emma was sitting on a stool with Lena sitting beside
her. There was no nanny in the room.
“Mom, Lena, Natalie.”
Natalie turned her gaze to the door and waved at Ava. “Ava,e and sit.”
After Ava sat down, Emma nced at her daughter and didn’t say anything. She smiled gently and
lectured her in the tone of an elder, “Natalie, Jasper is the oldest now. You should pay more attention to
him.”
“Children are the most sensitive. The two babies are still young and don’t know anything. They can only
eat, sleep, and have their diapers changed when they pee. But Jasper is different. He’s gradually
growing up. He understands many things. We have to care about him more than before.”
Natalie understood. In a family with multiple children, the most difficult thing for parents to do was to be
fair.
This was especially true for children. Although they were young, they were very sensitive. Sometimes,
they were even more sensitive than adults. For example, a piece of cake might also trigger children’s
displeasure.
And the unfairness of parents would also make the child feel distant, let alone fostering a sense of
kinship.
“Auntie, I understand. I’ll also remind Trevon.”
Emma felt that Jasper was very smart. It was fine if she wanted him to protect his two sisters, but she
had to guide him slowly. She could not directly say whom she wanted him to protect or that he had to
protect them. This would make Jasper feel disgusted.
Sometimes, by removing themanding tone from a sentence, eliminating arrogance, superiority,
and venting, it could be much gentler and more eptable.
