Lauren felt a little guilty.

‘Do I really look like an eggplant?’ she thought.

“Although children should wear lively and cute clothes, they still represent the family. It’s better to be more composed. You should also teach her some manners. Don’t go out and embarrass the Torres family. Tina is well-known among us to be a person who abides by the rules.”

“No matter what, the reputation of a family should not be decided by a child. Madame White should not have to worry about what my younger sister is wearing. If Madame White has such intentions, why don’t you take a look at the recent strategic plans of the White Group? I heard that your eldest son is interested in buying that piece of land in the south of the city recently? I suggest you do a good background check. You can’t just buy land as and when you want. We’ll make a move first. Have a good time with your granddaughter.”

After he finished, he led Lauren away, with Bryce following closely behind.

As Lauren was led away by her brother, she suddenly felt like the heroine in a film, feeling safe and secure as she was saved by the hero.

It was not until they turned a corner and entered another shopping area that Lauren gave a thumbs up to Franklin.

“Brother, you were so awesome just now!”

“What about me?”

Bryce’s voice came from behind.

What Bryce said just now had indeed given Lauren a shock. She did not expect Bryce to be so tough and dared to directly retort Sophia.

Lauren turned around and said, “You’re fantastic too!”

Bryce felt a little uneasy as this was the first time Lauren said that he was fantastic.

He brushed his fringe from his forehead to distract himself.

“Of course, I’m not trying to help you. I’ve always had a problem with that old woman. She nags every time she sees me.”

‘I don’t know whether Bryce is telling the truth or not, but he should still hate me, and I doubt he is really speaking up for me,’ Lauren thought.

“Franklin, who was that Madam White just now?”

Lauren especially emphasized the words ‘Madame White’ in order to show her ‘respect’.

Franklin initially thought that after being ridiculed by Sophia, Lauren would be a little unhappy. After all, she mentioned the foster care incident from four years ago.

However, Lauren unexpectedly took it well.

Franklin thought for a moment and found the simplest explanation.

“She is Grandma’s friend.”

Oh…
