However, before they could even speak further, Sean appeared at the door.

He woke up groggily and realized his wife was gone. He quickly put on his shoes and went out to look for her.

He saw that this room was lit, so he came over.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw the tears on Maria’s face. He quickly rushed in.

“Maria, are you alright? Why are you crying?”

Sean glanced at Lauren as he spoke.

Lauren could tell that his glance was a reprimand. It was as if he thought that Maria was crying because Lauren had done something bad to her.

In front of Sean, the ease that Lauren felt earlier was gone.

Maria shook her head gently.

“No, I’m just happy to see Lauren.”

Only then did Sean let out a sigh of relief.

“It’s already very late. No matter how happy you are, you have to take care of your own health. Let’s go to bed first.”

Sean placed both of his hands on Maria’s shoulders.

Maria knew that her husband cared for her, so she went along with his wishes and stood up.

“Lauren, you should rest early too. We’ll talk about it tomorrow morning.”

Lauren sat on the bed and nodded.

“Good night, Lauren.”

After that, they left, leaving only Lauren and the rejuvenated System Divine Nine in the room.

[System Divine Nine: Host, your mother seems to treat you quite well. She’s very gentle.]

Lauren nodded silently in her heart.

That’s right. Her first meeting with Maria went very smoothly.

She initially thought that Maria would hate her because of her effect on her health, but judging from her attitude just now, she probably did not hate her.

Of course, all mothers loved their children.

Lauren confirmed this thought once again.

Lauren was still immersed in the memory of what had just happened. Suddenly, the white phone watch that was placed on the bed rang. She crawled over to pick it up. It was a video call from Franklin.

She answered the call.

Franklin should have just finished showering. His hair was dripping wet and he was wearing the same duckling pajamas as Lauren. His face was dark.
