Chapter 381: Act Like a Father
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Maria looked a little embarrassed when she was asked this question.
Quinn said, “Mom, we’re all family. What’s there to be embarrassed about? Just tell us where you want to go.”
“Is anywhere fine?” Maria asked.
“Of course. Our time today belongs to you.”
Maria held Lauren’s hand with one hand and Bryce’s arm with the other. Franklin and Quinn stood by the side. Finally, she was able to feel the happiness of having her children by her side.
“To tell you the truth, I loved going to amusement parks the most when I was young.”
Her four children were speechless.
Maria did not notice anything unusual about her children as she continued to recall her past. “After I was with your father, I no longer dared to show my face in public anymore, not to mention a place like an amusement park. I was afraid it would affect the Torres Group. After that, I wasn’t in good health,
so I never went to the amusement park.”
Quinn wanted to persuade Maria to go somewhere else.
After all, ever since he met Lauren, he had been to the amusement park many times!
However, he held it in and didn’t say anything when he heard what Maria said.
Therefore, they made their way to the amusement park with great fanfare.
Sean looked at the backs of his lovely wife and filial sons, and he roared in his heart!
He had raised so many children that competed with him for the time with his wife!
It was only a few weeks ago and Lauren was back at the amusement park again. Lauren did not feel unfamiliar at all. It was as if she had just met Yulia, who had lost her daughter, here yesterday.
At that time, she only had Ben by her side. Her brothers did not like her, and she had never met her parents.
However, it had only been two months, and she was already walking around the amusement park hand in hand with her family!
Most importantly, she was the one who opened the amusement park!
Lauren skipped into the park while muttering, “I am really a winner in life!”
“What did you say, Lauren?” asked Maria as she lowered her head.
The golden rays of the sun made Maria’s hair look gentle and radiant.
“You’re so pretty, Mom,” said Lauren as she blinked her eyes slowly.
Maria did not expect Lauren’s answer. She bent down patiently and touched Lauren’s face.
“Lauren is also very good-looking. Your eyes are round and your mouth is pink.”
Quinn crossed his arms in front of his chest. He had bought a mask and sunglasses before entering the amusement park and wrapped himself up tightly.
“Indeed, we all inherited mom’s good qualities. We’re all pretty good-looking.”
Sean, who was listening from the side, was unhappy.
“You little brat, what are you talking about? Don’t you have any credit for me that you guys are so good-looking?”
Bryce and Quinn looked at each other and shook their heads.
Sean was speechless.
He realized now that his sons were working together against him.
Lauren had played all the activities at Star Dream Amusement Park that she was allowed to based on her age and height.
Lauren was unable to play other activities such as the roller coasters and the turbo drop, which were more exciting.
However, the gentle-looking Maria liked these activities the most.
Bryce said, “Lauren can’t play with us, so what should we do?”
Maria replied, “Isn’t that simple? Your Dad doesn’t like them either. Just let Lauren and him wait outside.”
Sean, who used to be dominated by others most of the time, was actually a little nervous at this moment.
“Hey.”
However, Maria had already brought her sons on the roller coaster.
Sean had no choice but to withdraw his hand and stand awkwardly next to Lauren.
Lauren did not take the initiative to speak. At this moment, Sean felt that his palms were a little sweaty.
He did not trust Lauren and even said some harsh words at the temple this morning. The awkwardness at this moment was probably his punishment.
“Cotton candy, popcorn, ice cream…”
There were people wearing doll costumes hawking at the snack bar. Sean remembered that Franklin had specifically called him earlier and told him not to buy ice cream for Lauren.
At that time, he felt that the call was meaningless. After all, at that time, he thought that he would never be so intimate with Lauren as to buy her ice cream.
However, at this moment, he suddenly felt grateful for the call.
“Lauren, do you want to eat ice cream? I’ll buy it for you.”
Lauren shook her head. “I won’t eat it. My brother will be angry.”
“Don’t worry about your brother. I’m his father. If he scolds you, I’ll scold him.”
At this moment, the roller coaster rushed down from the highest point. All kinds of screams resounded through the sky.
Lauren’s mouth moved, but her voice was drowned out by the screams.
“Lauren, what did you say?”
Lauren pursed her lips and shook her head.
“You’re my father too.. Why don’t you act like one?”
