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?
