Five-Year Old Prophet is Pampered by Ten Brothers

Chapter 78: Freeloader

Lauren’s cute and often cunning face suddenly flashed across Franklin’s mind.

He smiled and shook his head. “I’m afraid it’s not a coincidence. It was Lauren who saved your life.”

“What do you mean? She guessed based on a hindsight! She only told me when something almost happened.”

“Have you ever thought that it might be her fault that nothing happened to you?”

Quinn got up from the sofa and walked forward. He first placed the back of his hand on Franklin’s forehead, then used the same hand to touch his own forehead.

“That’s not right. You don’t have a fever. Why are you talking nonsense? Didn’t I say that it was because of the thunder that nothing happened to me? Are you saying the thunder was caused by Lauren?”

“Franklin, we have to believe in science!” Quinn lectured his brother earnestly.

Franklin did not mind Quinn’s attitude. He only knew that seeing was believing. He had experienced similar thing before, so he firmly believed it.

“Whether it’s true or not, won’t we know when we see Lauren tonight?”

Thus, while Lauren was having dinner, the two of them drove to the Dream Villa to look for her.

Looking at the two of them who appeared together again, Lauren wondered if they had specially chosen to come at the time for dinner. Why was she always eating when they came?

Lauren put the drumstick in her hand behind her back.

“You…why are you here?”

“Master Franklin, Master Quinn! Sit down quickly!” Ben hurriedly called for the two of them to sit down.

“Have you eaten? Shall I ask the waiter to add two more pairs of chopsticks?”

Franklin nodded. “Sure.”

It had been a long time since he had eaten together with Lauren, and he actually missed her. Although he did not want to admit it, he had only gone over during the meal time. He wanted to see if he could coincidentally bump into Lauren for a meal.

Quinn had been working the entire day, and he was shaken by the unexpected incident. Since he had been running around nonstop, he did not have time to eat. Looking at this exquisite meal, he did not decline and took the chopsticks that Ben handed over.

Lauren picked up another drumstick and placed it in her bowl. As expected, they were here to freeload! Hmph!

The dignified young masters of the Torres family were so poor that they did not even have the money to eat! Last time at the amusement park, they freeloaded on her fried chicken. Next time, she had to ask Scott to charge more money.

“Lauren, we came here today to ask about what happened at the event venue.”

Lauren’s mouth was oily as she ate the chicken drumstick. It was very similar to when she ate at the Torres family home.

Naturally, Franklin took the tissue on the table and handed it to Lauren. Perhaps it was a habit. Lauren also reached out and took it.

“Oh…what happened at the event venue?” Lauren asked despite knowing the answer.

‘Didn’t he ignore her this afternoon? Why did he bring Franklin here at night?’ Lauren thought.

All of a sudden, the familiar sound of music could be heard from the television. It turned out that it was time for the daily news.

“Something strange happened at the Star Convention Center in the western suburbs today. At 1:15 pm, a bolt of lightning suddenly flashed across the clear sky, followed by a thunderous sound. The circuit of the convention center, which was holding a fan event, was suddenly cut off, and the fan event was forced to stop

“According to the meteorologist, the convection situation was stable at that time, there was no reason for such lightning and thunder at all. There was no explanation for the weather phenomenon today. The incident did not cause any harm to anyone, but the circuit of the surrounding area was also affected. According to statistics, within an hour of the blackout, the economic value of the entire blackout area was three million.”

Everyone’s gaze was attracted by the news.

“There are witnesses who have recorded the scene.”

A video appeared on the television. It happened to capture the lightning bolt on the distant mountain, followed by the sound of thunder. In the background of the video, the terrified screams of some girls could still be faintly heard.

“Currently, everything is stable. Experts say that the weather will be fine in the next few days and there won’t be such a problem again. However, please pay attention to your safety when you are out.”

After the news was broadcast, the other three people turned their gazes to Lauren at the same time.

The chicken drumsticks were really delicious! It was only until Lauren realized they were staring at her.

Franklin was the first to start the ball rolling.

“Lauren, this thunder…was it you who did it?”

“Yes, it was me.” After saving a life, the System Divine Nine even gave her a reward. Saving a life was much more valuable. Compared to three million dollars, a life was definitely more important.

Quinn was speechless when he heard Lauren straightforwardly say such irrelevant words.
