Turning Of The Tide

Chapter 558
The sound of paper flipping was especially obvious in the silent conference room. For those who had a guilty conscience, the
sound undoubtedly made their hearts race even faster. Every page flipped meant that more mistakes would be discovered.
A few of them had already begun to wipe their sweat. It was akin to a confession.
Joseph, on the other hand, was free. He even turned on the timer on his phone to increase the anxiety in the room.
Christina felt that the man was really bad. When he didn’t say a word, it was even scarier than being scolded.
Half an hour later, a man couldn’t take it anymore and called for a halt. “Mr. Turner, I’ll turn myself in. I’ve falsely reported the
expenses for a business trip, as well as the fuel fees and...”
Joseph listened with interest, but he still did not speak. After a while, he said, “You’re quite smart. It’s a waste of your talent for
you to remain in the Turner Corporation. You can find somewhere else.”
“Quinn, you’ll handle the rest. Pat, you’ll assist her. Write down the list of names. The Turner Corporation will never hire them
again.”
After saying that, he held Christina’s hand and walked out. He was not interested in watching anymore.
Outside the door, Christina asked, “Have you actually prepared the evidence long ago? Then why did you do this today? Isn’t it
unnecessary?”
Joseph gave a beautiful smile and said in all seriousness, “Aren’t you bored? I added more drama to it to relieve your boredom.”
Christina stared at him.
Joseph had already given an order to Quinn in advance. All those who had embezzled or falsified their reports would be fired. He
also requested that the amount of the company’s funds be returned. This would be a warning to others. If they did not do so and
those responsible did not return the money, more people would take a chance in the future.
One thought can make the difference between good intentions and evil intentions.
After such a clean-up, those who had some ulterior motives within the company could not help but start to become more
cautious.

A few months had passed, and there was only a week left before Christina’s due date.
At the Yamin family’s villa, Angie stood downstairs with her hands on her hips. She looked at her son with disappointment. “Are
you really not going? Can’t you let go of your hospital matters? Will the hospital shut down without you performing the surgery?”
It was not that Chris did not want to go to Sapphire City. It was just that the patient’s surgery had long been scheduled. If
someone else were to perform the surgery at the last minute, they would definitely have objections. “The surgery was scheduled
some time ago. I’ll tell Christina. You guys go.”
Charlie sighed. There was no hope for his son. Chris could just get married to the operating theater for the rest of his life. He
could not even leave for a day. Charlie really wanted to suggest that he did not have to come back at night. “Alright. Let him be.
Even if you drag him there, his heart is still on the surgery. Why drag someone who does not want to be there?”
Stella dragged a large suitcase downstairs. Charlie stepped forward to pick it up. Angie glanced at the white suitcase. It
belonged to Christina. “We’re going to see your sister, not going on a vacation. Why did you pack such a big suitcase?”
Stella was panting. She was planning to go on a vacation. Ever since she worked under Leia, it had been hell on earth for her.
Now that there was such a good opportunity to escape, of course, she had to play for a few days. “Joseph asked me to take a
few days off to go to Sapphire City. I have to listen to him.”
As expected, Angie didn’t say anything else. She just glared at her daughter in dissatisfaction.
Charlie said, “Come on. Let’s go. Don’t delay. Joseph said that the plane was already waiting.”
Because Chris couldn’t go, he wanted to send his parents off. He quickly strode out of the door, opened the car door, and placed
the suitcases inside. “I’ll send you guys off. After that, I’ll go to the hospital. It’s on the way.”
Angie took a deep breath. How could she have such a foolish son? “What are you saying? Do you mean that if it’s not on the
way, you will not go out of the way? Alright. I’m in a good mood today and don’t want to argue with you.”

Chris kept his mouth shut. He was just being honest. It was really on the
way.
Stella was astute after she worked under Leia for a period of time. She was now very proficient at surviving. It was best to
pretend to be invisible when one didn’t want to be implicated. It was best to shut up and have a proper attitude when one made
mistakes.
At this moment, she was invisible. No matter what her mother said about her brother, she remained silent. She was afraid that
her mother would turn on her next.
She very much cherished her life.
When Stella got on the plane, she was unusually awake and excited. Angie, on the other hand, was a little sleepy. At this
moment, her eyelids had already started to flutter. In the end, she could not help but follow her heart and close her eyes.
“Wow! I feel like I’m stepping on clouds. I can touch it with a stretch of my foot. No wonder Christina likes to take the plane so
much. It’s so beautiful.”
Stella sat alone at the side and looked at the scenery outside the plane excitedly. Angie, who had just closed her eyes, was
shocked by her daughter’s surprised tone. She opened her eyes and reprimanded, “Can you look with your eyes? Don’t look with
your mouth.”
“But we have to express our emotions after looking at it. In the past, when our teacher took us out for an excursion, we would
have to write a journal entry after we came back.”
Angie let out a breath. She was very sleepy. Last night, when she received a call from her son-in-law, she was so excited that
she could not sleep. Now, she felt sleepy. “You can look at the scenery quietly. I’m not asking you to write anything, okay?”
“Alright. But why do you prefer to sleep when there’s such beautiful scenery outside? What a pity,” Stella leaned against the
window and muttered softly. Angie had already fallen asleep and did not reply to her. A few hours later, the plane arrived at
Sapphire Airport. Joseph was wearing a beige color windbreaker and was waiting at the airport. When he saw them coming out,
he quickly went up to them and took the initiative to take their suitcases. “Angie, Charlie, Stella. Welcome to Sapphire City.”
“Hello, Joseph. Where’s my sister?”

Stella was overjoyed. Joseph took the luggage and led them out of the airport. Behind him, Ethan walked over to help with the
luggage.
“Your sister said that she’s waiting at home to give you a surprise. Ava has gone to her classes and hasn’t finished yet. She’ll be
back in the
afternoon. Angie, Charlie, the car is outside. Come this way.”
Angie was all smiles. “Sure. That’s good.”
Charlie was very satisfied with his son-in-law’s arrangement, but he did not say anything. He looked around and said, “Okay.”
When the car arrived at the Turner Manor, Emma, who was dressed in a gown, was already waiting in the courtyard. After the
car stopped, the people in the car alighted.
As soon as she alighted, Angie could not help but praise, “I thought I had entered some Utopia. It’s like a paradise here. It’s too
beautiful.”
Charlie greeted Emma after getting out of the car. He glanced around the courtyard. There was indeed a wide gap between the
rich and the poor.
Emma went to Angie to help her. She showed her into the villa enthusiastically. “Come in quickly. You must be tired.”
“Charlie, go in and rest. I’ll bring the luggage in,” Joseph said.
Joseph opened the trunk to get the luggage. Ethan came over to help him, but he was stopped. “Go and pick up Ava. School is
over in about an hour’s time.”
After Stella got out of the car and greeted Emma, she was mesmerized by the scenery in the courtyard. She could not move her
feet and took out her phone to take photos of the beautiful scenery.
Joseph, who was holding the luggage, saw that she was drawn by the picturesque courtyard and did not rush her into the house.
“Stella, when you’re done looking around, you can come in yourself later.”
Stella, who was squatting on the ground and taking photos of an unknown species of flower, replied without looking up, “Sure.
Got it, -Joseph.”

However, she was extremely busy at the moment. She had to take good photographs and show them off later.
In the living room, when Emma saw that Stella had not come in, she asked her son, “Where’s Stella, Joseph?”
“Stella said that she would come in after taking photos.” With that, he carried the suitcases upstairs and placed Charlie’s,
Angie’s, and Stella’s
12:38
suitcases in the room that had been arranged long ago.
Angie complained, “Stella only wants to play. She’s hopeless. It doesn’t matter where she goes.”
“Since she’s here, let her relax. It’s rare for her to come over, so being happy is the most important.”
After a pause, Emma sat elegantly with her hands on her lap. She said. apologetically, “I have to apologize to you first... Actually,
Christina has already given birth. She gave birth five days ago and was discharged yesterday.”
The news was like a bolt from the blue.
Angie and Charlie were taken aback when they heard this,
They had predicted that their daughter’s due date was approaching and came to accompany Christina a week in advance. In the
end, they were told that the childbirth was over and their daughter had even been discharged.
“She had already... given birth.”
Angie looked at the elegant Emma in front of her in disbelief. Even Charlie, who was standing at the side, was stunned.
Yesterday, he had even called Christina who said that she had no signs of giving birth yet.
She only said that they could come over in advance to play and treat the trip as a vacation.
Charlie was struck silent. The girl was lying.
Emma smiled gently and met the couple’s gaze. “We are responsible for this matter. Christina gave birth a little suddenly. She
gave birth more than ten days ahead of the expected delivery date.”
As she spoke, Angie’s phone rang. It was from Christina. The call also interrupted the apology that Emma was about to say.

The phone rang a few times before it was picked up. Angie took a deep breath and tried to digest the news as soon as possible.
She suppressed the urge to scold her daughter. “We’re downstairs.”
Christina said, “I know you’re downstairs. Mom, come up. I have something to tell you. Come up with Dad.”
If it weren’t for the fact that the girl was currently in postpartum recovery, Angie planned to give the girl a proper lecture. “Got it.”
“Emma, I’ll go up and take a look first. We can continue chatting later.”
12:38
“Yes. Joseph.” Emma used the simplest sentence to instruct. Even with such a succinct order, Joseph understood what his
mother meant.
Emma did not follow them. She could understand the purpose of her daughter-in-law’s call. She was probably afraid that her
parents would blame them. Christina was too sensible.
Emma, who was standing alone in the living room, recalled the scene of her daughter-in-law’s amniotic fluid rupture. It was 10
p.m. and Christina had just finished supper when her water suddenly broke.
Her son, who was always calm, could no longer remain level-headed. He shouted up the stairs for Emma and began calling the
base to ask them to prepare for the delivery.
The two of them had already prepared everything beforehand and kept them in the room for fear of any accidents. As for Joseph,
he did not dare to leave Christina and could only ask Emma to get it.
He carried Christina to the car and placed her in the backseat. Emma accompanied her. Daniel sat in the front passenger seat.
Joseph drove. When they arrived at the hospital, Joseph did not want to take any risks. He directly arranged for the best doctor
to be in charge of the cesarean section.
After recalling for a while, Emma sat down on the couch again.
