Chapter 244: Do Not Harm Her
Lauren Torres went downstairs happily, humming a nursery rhyme she learned last week in her kindergarten music class.
Franklin Torres finished his work early. He had thought of accompanying Lauren Torres and asking her about the progress of the mission.
Seeing Bryce Torres was anxious, and Lauren Torres was not in the living room, Franklin Torres thought something had happened to Lauren Torres.
“What’s the matter? Has something happened to Lauren?”
Franklin Torres asked anxiously.
Bryce Torres was about to say something but was interrupted by Franklin Torres. He shook his head and said, “What could possibly happen to Lauren? It’s me that something has happened, okay?!”
Hearing this, Franklin was relieved and sat leaning against the chair.
“Something has happened to you?” He looked at Bryce Torres up and down. “It seems that your limbs are intact, no arms and legs are missing. You look quite healthy.”
Bryce Torres covered the area where his heart was and said, “Your brother was injured here.”
Bryce Torres was speaking the truth. His heart was still beating very fast when he recalled the scene in the utility room in the morning!
Franklin Torres then urged Bryce Torres, “Alright, stop talking nonsense. Let’s get down to business.”
Even though they were in the private study room, Bryce Torres felt as though the walls had ears.
He leaned over to Franklin Torres’s ear and said, “Brother, do you know what I saw Lauren do today?”
Franklin Torres’s eyes flashed with a hint of a smile.
Previously it was the second younger brother who was frightened. And now it looked like the youngest brother was frightened, too.
“Okay, tell me what you saw.”
“Lauren took out a talisman today, just like what Master Maverick did during our worship ceremony. How… how could a child like her…”
While Bryce Torres was speaking nervously, he saw Franklin Torres was actually smiling.
“Something is not right, Brother. Why do you have this expression?”
“What expression should I have? Your second brother and I already knew about it.”
Franklin Torres patted Bryce Torres’s shoulder, opened the study room door, and left. Bryce Torres was left in the study room by himself.
‘He knew about it long ago? What does it mean?’
‘If he already knew about it, why didn’t he treat Lauren immediately?’
‘Lauren must have gone crazy!’
After that, Bryce Torres quickly ran downstairs. He saw Franklin Torres was holding a pen and paper together with Lauren Torres. He did not know what they were doing.
After hearing what he had just said, Franklin Torres actually did not say anything at all?
It was strange. It was really too strange.
The point was the police actually followed Lauren Torres messing around and let her do whatever she wanted?
Bryce Torres walked up to them and vaguely heard “Lagrange theorem” and some formulas in their conversation.
What the hell was that?
What’s the point of talking those to Lauren Torres?
Before dinner, Franklin Torres and Bryce Torres happened to wash their hands in the kitchen together.
Bryce Torres seemed to have wanted to mention what happened in the morning again, but Franklin Torres glanced at him.
“Lauren is indeed a little different from us. However, her abilities won’t harm us. It’s fine if you can’t understand, as long as you don’t harm her.”
Franklin Torres still remembered at that time, Quinn Torres had impulsively told his grandmother about it. His grandmother had even invited Master Maverick to come over.
What if Master Maverick really did something to Lauren Torres at that time…
After saying this, Franklin Torres wiped his wet hands on the towel and walked out, leaving Bryce Torres thinking by himself.
As expected, Bryce Torres did not bring up the matter again during dinner. Lauren Torres looked at Bryce Torres who was unusually quiet, and then Franklin Torres who was helping her with the dishes, she knew what had happened.
It seemed that her eldest brother had already convinced him.
Quinn Torres had some good news to announce today. He had finally decided on a floor in the south of the city to be used as his studio.
“The lighting on that floor isn’t very good, but the good thing about it is that it’s cheap. Moreover, the place is spacious enough. It’ll be very convenient for us to set up a studio or something in the future.”
Everyone seemed to just agree with it. Now that everyone had their own things to think about, how would they have the time to pay attention to Quinn Torres’s studio.
The following day, Lauren Torres put on her clothes, as usual, packed her homework, and headed to the kindergarten.
When she went downstairs to the living room, Bryce Torres was already working on a question on the table in the living room.
There was a large desk near the window in the living room. It was perfect when the morning sunlight shone in.
Lauren Torres also liked to do her homework on this desk.
The police had not announced to uplift the lockdown of Thomas Johnson High School. So they were still unable to return to school. Bryce Torres woke up according to his routine at school and started his morning self-study.
Lauren Torres was swaying her small school bag. Before she left, Bryce Torres glanced at her and continued to write with the black pen in his hand.
When she arrived at the kindergarten, Lauren Torres was very excited. She was waiting to discuss yesterday’s latest animation with Joie Donahue!
In yesterday’s animation, the princess was finally rescued by the prince. Lauren Torres was very excited for a long time.
Indeed, in all the stories, the bad guys deserved to be punished.
Although the good guys would go through hardships, they would eventually get what they wanted.
This should be the so-called ‘good deeds result in good karma’.
