“You see, when Bryce goes up the stairs, he will definitely pass by this place. Then, he will trip over this thread. So, Lauren would have a chance to show her ability by stopping him the moment he is about to touch this thread.”
Lauren did not believe it.
“Trip him? Isn’t this method too childish?”
“What do you know! It doesn’t matter if the method is childish, as long as someone is willing to fall for it. Bryce never looks where he’s going when he walks. He’ll definitely fall for it.”
Looking that how Franklin and Lauren were still looking at Quinn as if he was stupid, Quinn said, “Forget it. If you guys don’t believe me, I’ll give it a try.”
Therefore, Quinn walked at his normal speed. Sure enough, he tripped when he passed by the thread. He was already prepared to balance himself and stand up, but he could not control himself and looked as if he was about to fall to the ground.
‘It’s over,’ Quinn wailed in his heart. ‘This is going to be the real show!!’
‘My image is going to be ruined!!’
Fortunately, Lauren moved quickly and grabbed onto Quinn’s leg.
After Quinn stood up, he felt grateful that he had survived the disaster. At the same time, he was also surprised by Lauren’s great strength.
“You’re not even half as tall as me, yet you’re able to pull me. You’re so strong!”
The next second, Quinn’s surprise turned into joy.
“That’s great. In the future, we won’t need to hire people to move or deliver packages. Lauren alone can hold up to ten people.”
Seeing Quinn’s attitude, Lauren smiled and shook her head.
Quinn was indeed different. If it was anyone else, they would have been surprised by her strength for a long time.
Quinn had good adaptability.
This small episode also fully proved the rescue ability of Lauren and the feasibility of this plan, so they began their Plan B for Bryce.
In order to prevent accidental injury to others, Franklin and Quinn sat on the sofa with their parents to watch TV together.
After studying for a day, Bryce lie on the spacious sofa playing mobile phone games.
Meanwhile, Lauren was sitting beside Franklin.
Since Bryce had yet to make a move, the three siblings did not pay too much attention to him. Instead, they watched the television attentively. When they saw something funny, they even laughed out loud together. It was very heartwarming.
More than half an hour later, everyone was still sitting on the sofa and doing their own stuff.
Quinn finally could not help but ask, “Bryce, aren’t you already in your third year of high school? Don’t you need to revise?”
“Quinn! Third-year students are also human. You need to combine work and rest, alright?!”
“We’ll play water polo together this afternoon. Don’t you feel like you need to combine work and rest?”
“Alright. I’ll go, ok? I didn’t see you working so hard when you were studying, but now you’re here to urge me to study!”
Bryce picked up his phone and headed upstairs. Everyone was eagerly waiting for Lauren to save him.
“Be care…”
Lauren’s word was still on the tip of her tongue, but nothing happened. Bryce walked up the stairs without a hitch.
What…what was going on?
Quinn quickly got up and walked towards the corridor. Franklin and Lauren followed closely behind Quinn.
Sean and Maria looked at the children’s movements. They looked at each other and smiled warmly.
Although they didn’t know what the children were planning behind the scenes, they could feel the warmth of watching TV together as a family.
Although it was quiet in this place, it was too lonely sometimes.
Occasionally, the children would come to see them, but they always came alone. It was never as lively as it was today.
“Eh? What happened? Where’s that thread? Why is it gone?”
Quinn was squatting on the ground now. His hand was waving at the spot where the thread had been placed, but he did not touch anything.
“It was clearly here. Why is it gone?!”
Quinn stood up. Franklin and Lauren were also confused.
All of a sudden, Aunt Ricci walked out of the bathroom with a mop in her hand, she mumbled, “That’s weird. Why is there a thread in this corridor? Luckily, I cut it off in time. Otherwise, it would have tripped someone over.”
The few of them sighed. They did not expect Aunt Ricci to “spoil” their plan.
After failing their plan B again, they returned to Quinn’s room.
Lauren sighed. “Forget it! Let’s not do it anymore!”
After two failed plans, Quinn was no longer confident. He couldn’t help but feel down about it..
