Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lauren woke up in a daze, not even knowing what time it was when she heard her phone watch ring.

Usually, only Franklin would call her.

Lauren pressed the answer button. Franklin was indeed the caller.

He was probably in his office. The secretary’s voice could still be heard on the other end of the phone.

Lauren snorted, “What’s wrong, Franklin?”

“Why are you still sleeping, you little slob?”

Franklin’s voice was so fawning that even his secretary, who was sorting through the documents, was stunned.

The chairman was on the phone with someone?

A little slob?

“Franklin, I’m really sleepy. Yesterday, I did some research until five o’clock in the morning. I need to sleep!”

Seeing that the secretary was still staring at him, Franklin looked surprised and waved his hand.

The secretary immediately nodded and left.

Why did he have to avoid her when he made a call?!

Something was not right!

The Torres Group’s forum created a new topic of discussion: “Who is the little slob who makes the cold and aloof Chairman become caring and gentle?”

Franklin did not know that he had once again become the hot topic of discussion among the overtime staff. He closed the document in front of him as he spoke. “Oh, I see. I was just thinking about it. Didn’t you say that you were going to the mall to buy a dress for Ruby? My work today has been completed ahead of schedule. Do you want to go with me?”

“But…you just said that you wanted to sleep, so forget it.”

Franklin was about to hang up the phone on Lauren.

But when she heard that she could buy a new dress and go with her brother, of course, she was willing to go!

She immediately jumped up from the bed and said excitedly, “I’m going! I’m going! I’m going!”

“Didn’t you say that you wanted to sleep?”

Lauren immediately rebutted, “I was just joking. I’m so happy that I can go shopping with my brother!”

Franklin raised his eyebrows and asked, “Are you sure that’s why you’re happy? Not because you can buy a new dress?”

Lauren rolled her eyes.

“Of course. I’m happy wherever I go with my brother!”

Lauren was determined to flatter Franklin till the end!

“Is that so?” Franklin asked. “Next time I go out for a morning jog, remember to come with me.”

It turned out Franklin already had her figured out.

Lauren kept silent.

“Alright, I’ll come from my office to pick you up. Get ready.”

“Okay! I’ll be waiting for you at home!”

After hanging up, Lauren made a phone call to Ruby’s social worker and asked about Ruby’s condition.

Her social worker said that Ruby was still being questioned at the police station and had no way to chat with Lauren.

“Got it,” Lauren replied. She then picked out her clothes and prepared to leave.

When she heard a honking sound from downstairs, Lauren immediately carried her cute backpack and went downstairs.

Just as Lauren was about to get into the car with Franklin, they saw Bryce standing on the balcony on the third floor, waving and shouting to them.

“Hey, where are you guys going?!”

Lauren looked up. The sun was a bit dazzling, so she put her hand over her eyes to shield her vision.

“Franklin is taking me to the mall to buy new clothes!”

Her tone was clearly showing off and provoking.

“Franklin, you’re so biased! You’ve never taken me to the mall!”

In the past, Franklin had always felt that buying clothes was a waste of time, so he just asked his secretary to buy them.

He wore a suit most of the time anyway, so he usually just told his secretary to buy from the high-quality series of the big brands.

And Quinn was often not at home, so Bryce had never felt the joy of buying clothes.

“Wait a minute! I want to go too!” Bryce shouted. Lauren and Franklin just looked at each other and shrugged.

What else could they do? They were family, so they could only pamper each other!

Two minutes later, Bryce came down after changing into a fresh set of clothes.

His hair was not combed like Franklin’s. Instead, it hung down naturally, making him look fresh and youthful.

However, no matter how handsome he was now, he was not as eye-catching as the math test paper and writing pad in his hands.

He sat in the back row.

“We’re going to the mall, not the library. Didn’t I say it clearly just now?” Lauren tilted her head and asked Bryce.

Today, she was wearing a purple dress with a purple hair clip on her head.

When she went downstairs, she was even mocked by Franklin for looking like an eggplant.

“So what? I’m a third-year student, so I should have the self-awareness of a third-year student. No matter where I go, I should put my studies first.”

He waved the test paper in his hand and then began to write on the writing pad..
