“You’re already an adult, yet you still complain to your parents. Aren’t you ashamed of yourself?”

After saying this, Franklin held onto Lauren’s hand and led her to her room.

This villa was the same as the Torres mansion. It was three stories high. Their parents’ room was on the second floor.

Apart from that, there was also an empty guest room on the second floor.

Franklin let Lauren stayed in this empty guest room. He hoped Lauren could have more contact with Sean and Maria.

This was also the biggest purpose of this trip. Their parents were not some unreasonable people. Franklin believed that after they spent two days with Lauren, their relationship would be better.

However, when Franklin led Lauren through the corridor on the second floor, he discovered that the lights in Sean’s room had not been switched off. A faint yellow light leaked out from the crack in the door. It was especially obvious in the dark corridor.

‘Maybe he forgot to turn off the light when he was sleeping,’ Franklin thought.

He knew their parents did not have the habit of turning on the light to sleep, so he could only think of this explanation.

He held Lauren’s hand and the two of them walked quietly down the corridor to the room at the end of the corridor.

The servants must have been told. The guest room has been cleaned and the bedspread changed to a new one.

Franklin turned on the lights.

Lauren’s luggage had already been placed there.

“Do you want me to stay here with you for a while?”

Lauren shook her head when she saw the faint tiredness in Franklin’s eyes.

“I can do it on your own. Franklin, you should go and rest too.”

Franklin nodded.

“This guest room doesn’t have a separate bathroom, so you have to go to the one in the corridor.”

Franklin pointed to the direction of the bathroom. After remembering the location, Lauren nodded and said, “Okay, I got it!”

“Okay, I’ll go to my room first. If there’s anything you need, you can call me with your phone watch.”

Franklin had shortened his lunch time and break time today, as he had a meeting and also he had to go home early. He was indeed sleepy now, so he didn’t stay any longer and went up to the third floor.

Lauren stretched her back, then she opened her suitcase and took out her pajamas.

This time, she brought a very cute set of pajamas with a few yellow ducklings on it. This set of pajamas was bought by Quinn Torres, and she liked it very much.

And…

Quinn also bought the same set of pajamas for himself and Franklin.

She picked up her clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

However, she was not familiar with the layout of the bathroom, so when she was hanging her clothes, she accidentally bumped into the rack next to the hook and knocked over some of the things on it, making a loud noise.

In fact, the noise was not loud, but it was very abrupt in this quiet environment.

The next second, Lauren heard footsteps.

She opened the bathroom door to see who it was, only to find a tall and burly man.

Lauren could not see his features clearly in the dark corridor, but she could still recognize him. He was the man in the family photo, that was her father, Sean.

In fact, he had wanted to reject Franklin when Franklin had mentioned that the siblings would be coming over this week.

After all, Maria’s health was not stable at the moment, and it was chilly in the spring. It was also the time when she was prone to get sick, so he did not want them to come over.

In his heart, the main reason why Maria’s health had become like this was because of Lauren.

It was as if Lauren was a burden to Maria’s body as long as she got close to Maria.

However, Maria was very happy to hear this news, so Sean had no choice but to agree. Knowing that they were coming over tonight, Sean did not fall asleep early as usual. Instead, he kept waiting.

He did not know what he was waiting for.

When he heard the faint sound of footsteps coming from the corridor, he knew that they had already arrived. Then, he heard the sound of something falling.

Maria was a light sleeper. She would wake up at the slightest sound. He was worried that the sound would disturb her, so he quickly got up to take a look.

He saw Lauren.

He was a little surprised that Franklin had arranged for Lauren to be on the second floor.

Lauren was at a loss when she saw Sean.

This was the first time the father and the daughter had met, but it didn’t seem to be very pleasant.

Sean turned on the wall lamp in the corridor..
