“But if that’s the case, I won’t be happy living in the Torres family. I can go back when you guys really like me.”

Lauren finished her words seriously and took two steps forward before turning her head around.

“I know you don’t hate me, but I want a firm choice. After I was born, you guys didn’t keep me by your side. I’ve already been abandoned once.”

“When I came back this time, I originally thought that I could have a real home and family. But this time, you still didn’t choose me firmly.”

Lauren’s voice wasn’t loud, but it was incomparably clear. Franklin could hear it clearly.

.

“I don’t blame anyone. It’s just that...if the things I’ve obtained are going to be taken away in the end, then I’d rather have never obtained them.”

“If I go back with you now, but you still don’t accept me from the bottom of your heart, then I will be abandoned again in the future. Why should I suffer such treatment?”

“I’m not a toy. I’m not someone that you can just wave around and leave at your whim.” Lauren’s eyes were already red as she finished speaking.

However, she held back her tears. She still had many things to do. Her family did not need her. There were still many people waiting for her to help.

After saying what she wanted to say, Lauren left. Ben followed closely behind, and his eyes actually turned red.

Long after Lauren left, Franklin was still sitting in the same spot. He had always thought that children would be happy as long as they were coaxed. They would be happy if they were given a piece of candy and bought a new set of clothes.

However, he had neglected that this knot in Lauren’s heart had always existed. Ever since she was born, she had been despised by everyone.

Upon returning to the Torres family, she must have felt a lot of nervousness and apprehension.

It was true that he had not done a good job. He had thought of this matter too simply, and did not know how upset Lauren was because of their attitude.

Franklin propped his forehead on his hand and sat there for a long time. Back then when the Torres Corporation had almost gone bankrupt, he felt that it was not as troublesome as it was now.

Indeed, people were the most complicated things.

On the way back to the Villa, Lauren had been listless. She did not talk casually with Ben like she used to.

Ben thought deeply about what Lauren said today.

He always thought that Lauren was willful. With so many people spoiling her and Franklin caring dabout her so much, she was still so stubborn and unwilling to return to the Torres family.

But today, he understood.

Lauren’s words today made Ben, who was watching from the side, feel his heart ache, not to mention that Lauren was only four and a half years old.

She needed to digest the hatred and loathing of others by herself. Wasn’t she feeling worse?

The car had been in the sun for too long, and the seats were burning hot. Ben turned down the temperature of the air conditioner.

“Miss Torres, let me ask you a trick question. How about it?”

“Mr. Carson, please go ahead.”

Lauren was not in high spirits, but she had always been polite to those who treated her well. She would treat them the same way.

This was Lauren’s way of dealing with people.

She did not want to be a saint who would forgive the world. Her philosophy was ‘do unto others as others do unto you’.

“What has to be broken before you can use it?”

“Mr. Carson, this riddle of yours is so old-fashioned. An egg has to be broken before you can use it!”

Ben chuckled. “Miss Torres is really amazing! One more!”

Ben raised a few more questions, and Lauren answered all of them.

After this session of question and answer, coupled with Ben’s constant praise, Lauren’s mood clearly turned better.

“Miss Torres, don’t blame me for being too talkative. Master Franklin is really worried about you. I’ve been driving for the Torres family for so long, but I’ve never seen Master Franklin behave in this manner.”

“But what I want is unconditional trust and support. Shouldn’t this be what family is like?”

Ben was also stumped by this question. It was such a simple truth, but it was the children who understood it better than them. What a shame!

The car sped past. Lauren’s sharp eyes pointed at the two people on the side of the road.

“Eh? Aren’t these the old couple who were at the amusement park just now?”

Ben slowed down the car.

“Yes, it’s them!”

The elderly couple who had praised Lauren at the amusement park just now were walking on the road. Ben reversed the car and stopped beside them.

Lauren got off the car. “Grandpa and Grandma! The weather is so hot. Let us give you a ride. Where are you going?”

The two elderly people were also pleasantly surprised to see Lauren. However, they waved their hands and said, “It’s not necessary, the bus stop is just ahead.”
