While he was concerned about his image being a chairman, Franklin Torres couldn’t help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

Lauren Torres actually called that night fun?

That night scared the hell out of Quinn Torres. Although Franklin Torres looked calm, it was his first time using a paper talisman and catching a ghost. He was very nervous.

Regardless of what kind of mood he was in then, at least it could not be described as happy or fun.

Of course, Franklin Torres knew that Lauren Torres would give in on everything except mission.

So, Franklin Torres had no choice but to agree.

He nodded. “Tomorrow at five in the morning, which means that it will be less than six hours from now.”

Lauren Torres nodded again. “That’s right!”

“Then why aren’t you going to bed?”

Lauren Torres opened her eyes wide in delight. “You’ve agreed to it, Brother?”

“What else can I do? Will you just let it go?”

Franklin Torres gave Lauren Torres a gentle nudge on her nose with his index finger.

Without realizing it, he was already so familiar with Lauren Torres.

Time passed by so quickly!

At this moment, Lauren Torres also signed for Franklin Torres’s understanding of her.

She bit her finger. Indeed, if Franklin Torres didn’t agree, she would definitely sneak out by herself. Eldest Brother really knew her well.

Lauren Torres calculated the time. “We have to be there at five in the morning, which means we have to leave at 4.30 a.m.”

Franklin Torres sighed and nodded, “Okay.”

At least he could sleep for five hours.

“Just the two of us?”

Lauren Torres, “Yeah, the fewer the merrier. The more people, the more trouble we’ll have.”

When Lauren Torres recalled the whining voices of Quinn Torres and Bryce Torres, she had a headache by just thinking of it. It was better to forget about it.

So, after Lauren Torres went back to her room to sleep, Franklin Torres also quickly went to bed to rest.

Although he was hardworking, he had never tried to get up at 4:30 in the morning, except for catching a flight or failing to sleep due to differences in time zone.

When she was back in her room, Lauren Torres did not rest first but took out the paper talisman. She then practiced writing the incantation.

There would always be mistakes when writing the incantation for the first time. For the incantation to display the best effect, the first thing was it had to be coherent. Secondly, while writing it, one must recite it silently in the heart to reach the point of unity.

The more familiar and confident she was with the incantation in her mind, the more effective the incantation would be.

Therefore, Lauren kept on practicing. She tore off one paper talisman after another until she finally got it right.

When she was able to write the incantation smoothly and skillfully, she saw that it was already one o’clock in the morning.

“Little Nine, have you ever seen the sky at one o’clock in the morning?” Lauren Torres was moved by herself.

[ System Divine Nine: host, go to sleep, stop making so much noise. ]

Lauren Torres, “…”

At 4:30 am, the alarm clock at the bedside rang on time.

Lauren Torres’s hand automatically located the alarm clock and pressed it.

However, her eyelids were very heavy. It was as if someone had glued them together. She could not open her eyes.

Nonetheless, with the conviction to complete the mission, Lauren Torres still got up with a thud. She quickly ran to the bathroom and scooped up some cold water to wash her face to wake herself up.

It was a morning in late spring, and it was still very cold. A handful of cold water splashed on her face, and she could feel a chill run down her spine.

When Lauren Torres opened her room door, she saw a faint yellow light from the crack of Franklin Torres’s door in the dark corridor.

‘Eldest Brother is also a very punctual person.’ Lauren Torres thought in relief.

She changed her clothes and carried her kindergarten bag on her back.

She would go to the kindergarten from Thomas Johnson High School.

She was going to be the first child to go to kindergarten today. Carina Bailey would be so surprised to see her!

After waiting for a while at Franklin Torres’s door, he opened the door and came out.

He was wearing black sportswear, and he did not comb up his hair as usual. He looked very young.

He was more composed in his suit. Now he was more like a young man who had just graduated.

Lauren Torres gave Franklin Torres’s a thumbs up and said softly, “My eldest brother is so handsome!”

Franklin Torres smiled and patted her on the head.

As they were going to catch a ghost today, Franklin Torress was wearing clothes that allowed him to move around easily. Anyway, there was a spare suit for him in the office.

In the past, Lauren Torres would always go on missions alone. She felt a little lonely.

Now that she was always accompanied by someone when she went on a mission, she felt it had become much more interesting!
