Five-Year Old Prophet is Pampered by Ten Brothers

Chapter 199: Visiting Her Parents

“Lauren can decide whether or not she wants to participate in the talent program.”

Franklin had always been a democratic person and respected other’s opinions.

“Am I right to say that if I participate in the talent program, I will have to study for a longer period of time?”

Ben nodded.

“Yes, I heard from Miss Bailey that you would have to stay with the other children to continue your lessons after school.”

Lauren thought for a moment.

With her current standard, participating in the talent program would not be of any help to her.

However, she found learning in kindergarten was very interesting, so she nodded.

“I am willing to participate. Learning is so interesting!”

Franklin praised Lauren for her enthusiasm in learning, while Quinn rolled his eyes.

Quinn said, “Among our siblings, who are the two that are not biological siblings?!”

After dinner, Franklin called Quinn and Lauren into the study room as he had something to tell them.

“What’s wrong, Franklin? Why do we have to come to the study room to talk about it? It’s so formal. It looks like a meeting is about to take place.”

“It’s indeed quite serious, so we need to discuss it properly.”

After returning home, Franklin had yet to change out of his suit, so he looked really serious.

“Many people know that Lauren is back. As Lauren is part of the Torres family and she has returned home after four years, well… what I mean is that we need to hold a banquet and invite some important people over to formally introduce Lauren to them. Otherwise, in the future…”

Quinn understood what Franklin had yet to say.

In this era, power and influence were extremely important, especially for families like theirs.

The good thing about Lauren’s silent return was that she did not have to go through so much trouble. But the bad thing was there were lots of rumors and slander going around.

Therefore, it was very important to announce Lauren to the public in a timely manner.

Quinn nodded in agreement.

“I think what you said makes sense. Lauren’s last visit to your company caused such a huge commotion, so we should make an official announcement to avoid any misunderstandings.”

“Yes. The Torres Group’s 50th anniversary will be held on May 10th. I’ve decided to use this opportunity to announce it to everyone. What do you think?”

“It’s a good idea to hold it together with the company’s 50th anniversary. However, will they think that we don’t value Lauren?”

“I’ve thought about this before. However, if we hold a ‘welcome home’ party specifically for Lauren, I’m afraid those people won’t come over after they find out.”

Lauren sat down obediently and didn’t interrupt when the two adults were discussing.

“For the 50th anniversary celebration of Torres Corporation, since most of the important people will be there, it’ll best to take this opportunity. What do you think, Lauren?”

“I’ll go long with whatever you plan, Franklin. I know you won’t harm me.”

Quinn and Franklin smiled.

“But don’t we need to discuss this with Mom, Dad and Grandma?”

“Yes, we do. That’s why I plan to bring Lauren to visit Mom and Dad this weekend.”

They were going to visit Mom and Dad?

Lauren’s interest was piqued.

She had wanted to visit her mom a long time ago, but she did not know if the timing was right, so she did not bring it up.

Franklin could clearly sense Lauren’s excitement. “Why? Excited to visit Mom?”

“Of course!”

Lauren nodded her head vigorously.

Although she had not spend much time with her parents, they were still her parents.

She had witnessed how other parents in the kindergarten doted on their own children, so she thought her parents would be as loving as well.

However, Lauren hesitated again.

She had been back for so long, but her parents had not called her to ask about it. So…

What if her parents did not welcome her after she met them?

Lauren shook her head again to get rid of her messy thoughts.

Her main purpose of returning to the Torres family was to help her mother recover from her illness. It was okay even if she did not like her.

Lauren’s mother had been sick after giving birth to Lauren, so she aimed to return her mother a healthy body. This was her biggest goal in coming back to the Torres family.

“Franklin, are we going back this weekend?”

Franklin nodded as he looked at the anticipation in Lauren’s eyes.

“Yes, we’re going this weekend. Bring a change of clothes. We’re going to stay there for two days.”

Lauren nodded. She was both nervous and excited.
