Five-Year Old Prophet is Pampered by Ten Brothers

Although Lauren had come up with a plan, it was not so easy to implement it.

Firstly, she did not know when the person behind the scenes would send out another mission, and secondly…

After Lauren returned to the Torres family, she saw a dignified old lady sitting on the sofa.

Quinn was sitting awkwardly beside her.

It was four o’clock in the afternoon and Franklin had not returned home.

Mr. Hayes and the other servants that Lauren knew were not around either.

Ben came in a few steps later than Lauren as he had to park his car. When he saw Lauren standing motionlessly in front of the hall, he spoke as he approached her. “Miss Torres, why are you standing here? Didn’t you say you were hungry?”

Ben suddenly went silent when he saw the person sitting on the sofa.

He spoke only after a few seconds later.

“Old Madam Torres, you’re back,” Ben greeted respectfully.

Old Madam Torres’s real name was Gertrude.

Her personality was just like her name. She was very fierce, and she had a very imposing aura even just by sitting there.

Her white hair was combed very neatly, revealing her forehead. Although there were many wrinkles on her face, she did not look old. Instead, she looked elegant.

Lauren’s lively personality was suppressed in an instant.

Gertrude merely nodded her head lightly when Ben greeted her. Following that, she turned her sharp gaze towards Lauren.

The Old Master of the Torres family had passed away many years ago, and Gertrude had taken over the responsibility as the head of the Torres family since then. The Torres family was a big family and it owned a large business. She had long gotten used to her iron-faced appearance.

Sometimes, her stern appearance could save her a lot of trouble.

“Miss Torres, this is your grandma.”

Ben saw that Lauren was still standing in the same spot and did not greet her, so he quickly pushed Lauren’s back with his hand.

Although Lauren did not say anything, she was not afraid either. She just stood in the same spot respectfully.

She had already guessed the identity of this old lady. Lauren greeted her gracefully after Ben mentioned it.

“Hello, Grandma.”

Her voice was neither loud nor soft. It carried the innocence that a child should have, but it also had a steadiness that allowed no one to question it.

Looking at Lauren, Gertrude responded with a nod and said, “Sit down.”

Gertrude looked at the sofa across from her, Lauren understood and walked over.

Ben winked at Lauren, and he walked out without caring if Lauren understood him or not.

The sofa was a little high. Lauren had to climb up and sit properly, but she seemed a little clumsy.

Lauren sat opposite Gertrude, and she could sense Quinn’s smug gaze at her from the corner of her eye.

When Gertrude was not looking over, Lauren took the opportunity to raise her head and glared at Quinn.

Judging on Quinn’s sitting posture, one could tell that Gertrude doted on Quinn very much.

“Grandma, why hasn’t Master Maverick arrived yet?” Quinn asked.

Gertrude tilted her head and smiled as she patted Quinn’s leg.

The jade bracelet on her wrist was crystal clear and glistened under the light.

Lauren had also received many random gifts from the system over the past two years. She had quite a few jade bracelets and gold bracelets, so Lauren could tell that the jade bracelet on Gertrude’s wrist was of good quality, but it was not the best jade.

Just as she was thinking about it, Gertrude suddenly spoke to her.

“I heard from Quinn that you’ve learned some useless skills at the church in the past few years?”

[System Divine Nine: What does she mean by useless skills?]

Lauren comforted System Divine Nine in her heart before answering Gertrude in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.

“The things that I’ve learned are not useless.”

At this moment, Quinn interrupted again. He had always behaved like a spoiled child in front of his elders, and this was precisely what made Lauren hate and envy him at the same time.

“Grandma, it would be fine if she alone was possessed. Franklin said that he saw a ghost the last time, and Ben was also fooling around with Lauren. There must be something fishy going on.”

Lauren finally understood. Quinn did not believe that she could catch a ghost at all, instead he thought that they had gone “crazy” that day.

“Is what Quinn said true?”

Gertrude’s question was a complete waste of time as she must have already believed Quinn.

Therefore, Lauren did not bother to explain. Just like how Franklin did not believe her back then, so they had to witness it for themselves,

“What’s wrong? Why are you in such a hurry to bring me back?” Franklin’s voice came from the entrance, along with his steady but somewhat hurried footsteps.

He was on a video call with a foreign company when he suddenly received a call from Gertrude, asking him to hurry back to the Torres family.
