During dinner that night, Lauren Torres told Franklin Torres, Quinn Torres, and Mr. Hayes about the matter. She wanted to hear them out.

“Hmm.. it is indeed strange.”

“From Ruby Cromwell’s reaction, it seems like she was really forced to eat that cake. Also, you mentioned that she seemed to be very afraid of her mother?”

Lauren Torres nodded. “Yes. When her mother came to the office previously, Ruby Cromwell behaved the same. She was very resistant to physical contact with her mother.”

Quinn Torres said, “It’s really strange. Most girls like their mothers. At Ruby Cromwell’s age, if nothing serious had happened, there wouldn’t be such a big gap between her and her mother.”

Lauren Torres agreed.

“Then what should I do? Ruby is my friend. I want to help her.”

Franklin Torres scooped up some vegetables and placed them in Lauren Torres’s bowl.

“Of course, you can help her. If you find out that this little friend named Ruby Cromwell was really hurt on purpose by her mother, then you can help her. However, don’t act rashly. After all, it’s difficult to settle a family matter. You need to have evidence first.”

Lauren Torres placed a mouthful of vegetables from her bowl into her mouth and chewed it until it made a crunching sound.

“I will definitely protect my friend!”

The following day, when Lauren Torres arrived at the kindergarten, she realized that Ruby Cromwell was already there.

She was still sitting in her usual seat. But many children were surrounding her asking about her health.

However, this time, contrary to her usual silence, she had carefully answered the children’s questions.

“I was allergic to chocolate after I ate chocolate cake. That’s why I didn’t come to school yesterday.”

The children were very happy when Ruby Cromwell answered their questions.

Ever since she saved Milo Barker, Ruby Cromwell had been the little idol in everyone’s hearts.

Of course, they were very happy to be able to talk to the little idol.

“Ruby, then why did you eat that cake?”

These children were all in the senior class, so they naturally knew what to eat and what not to.
