Fortunately, Lauren did not really want to play. She just took a look and wandered around again. Suddenly, she stopped and looked at the middle-aged woman sitting under a big tree.

The middle-aged woman’s eyes were dim and her hair was a little messy. She was holding a small skirt in her hand, which was obviously for a little girl. Next to her was a small schoolbag, which had the same color as the skirt.

[System Divine Nine: Host, have you noticed something? ]

“That Auntie looks like she’s waiting for someone. Is she waiting for her daughter?”

Lauren was not someone who meddled in other people’s business. It was just that the experience of completing missions over the past few years had trained her to be able to tell that what happened to this auntie was definitely not simple.

She had always trusted her own experience and intuition, so she ran toward the middle-aged woman with her short legs.

Ben and Zelda quickly followed, feeling confused.

“Miss Torres, what’s wrong?” Ben went forward to ask, worried that Lauren would do something funny again. The Eldest Young Master had scolded him for what happened on the rooftop last time. This time, he did not dare to leave Lauren alone.

“Uncle Ben, I am going to help that Auntie. That Auntie is so miserable.”

Ben looked over. She was just an ordinary woman. What was there to be miserable about?

“Miss Torres, it’s getting late. We should go home. Otherwise, Eldest Young Master will be angry.”

Knowing that Franklin held an extraordinary position in Lauren’s heart, Ben deliberately used Franklin to scare her.

“Even if my brother is angry, I have to help that Auntie. This is my mission!”

When she first received the mission, Lauren knew that she wanted to help everyone in this world to have a better life. She was also very happy that she could help others.

Ignoring Ben’s obstruction, Lauren ran to the woman.

“Auntie, are you waiting for your daughter?”

The middle-aged woman’s eyes that had lost their focus became a little more lively after Lauren called out to her. Seeing that Lauren was alone, she said anxiously,

“My child, why are you alone! It’s very dangerous. Where are your parents?”

Ben and Zelda ran over while panting.

Miss Lauren looked chubby. How did she run so fast? The two adults could not catch up.
