As Maria had just recovered, everyone was worried that her body could not afford to play for too long, so the trip ended today.

However, just as they were about to part, another difficult problem arose.

“Where are we going?” Maria asked Sean.

Although they hadn’t decided yet, half of Maria’s body had already stepped into Franklin’s car. It was obvious that she did not want to go back to the villa that she had been resting at.
“It’s getting late. There’s not enough time to return to the villa. Why don’t we stay at home for the night?” asked Sean.

“That’s a great idea. It’s settled then. You sit in the back seat, while I accompany Franklin.”

Sean, who was once again abandoned, was speechless.

After returning to the Torres family, Lauren could not wait to drag Maria to see her room.

“My brothers bought me a lot of nice clothes and shoes. Mom, come and take a look!” Maria indulgently let Lauren drag her to her room.
Looking at them, Sean didn’t disturb them.

Franklin had been very idle today. However, he knew he had to bear the responsibility once this madness was over.

He drank a mouthful of water and returned to the study room.

Before long, there was a knock on the door.

It was Sean.

“Dad.”

Lauren was in the study room next door. The sound of her excitedly introducing her dolls could be heard clearly in the study room.

Franklin asked, “Do you hav

“Lauren…” Sean said.

Both of them talked at the same time, and it was a little awkward for a moment.

They never had a heart-to-heart chat, and their communication was only limited to work.

Now that they were alone in a room, Sean realized that he was actually a little nervous.

He cleared his throat.

“Um, the Torres Group’s 50th-anniversary celebration is coming up soon, right?”

Franklin nodded.

“Yes, it will be in two weeks.”

“Oh…do you have any plans?”

“Dad, what plans are you referring to…2″

Sean took a folder and casually flipped through it.

“Lauren has been back in the Torres family for a few months. She caused a lot of controversies when she left last time. She is now back, so the Torres Group has to do a good job as the leading company in the country.”
Sean seemed to have said something, but he also did not seem to have said anything. Franklin was confused.

“Dad, what do you mean?”

“We have to formally introduce Lauren. We have to let everyone know that we brought Lauren back in a dignified manner, and she is a member of the Torres family.”
“Do you really think so?”

“Do you think it’s fake? We have to make it grand. Don’t let others look down on us.”

Franklin was stunned by what Sean said, but he knew the reason.

The person that Sean cared about most was his wife, so he hated Lauren initially as his wife was sick at the beginning.

But Maria was now cured because of Lauren, so the knot in his heart must have disappeared as a result.

“Even if you do not say, I intend to do so.” Franklin bowed his head and smiled, “I had intended to hide it from you, but I did not expect that we share the same thought.”
“But…what about grandma? She’ll definitely be there on the 5oth anniversary.”

“Continue to hide it from your grandma. Let’s do it first and report it later!”

‘The two men raised their hands and gave each other a high five in tacit understanding.

After talking to Lauren for the whole night, Maria was a little tired, so she went to bed early.

Meanwhile, Lauren lay on her bed contentedly after spending the whole day with her mother.

Ina daze, she realized that she seemed to have forgotten something.

Something did not seem right.

That’s right! Divine Nine! Divine Nine had said that it was going to look for its father this afternoon, but it had not returned yet.

Lauren dived into her spiritual consciousness to check again, but she did not find any trace of Divine Nine.

Lauren closed her eyes and tried to sense Divine Nine, but she could not.

It seemed that the location of Divine Nine had already exceeded the range of Lauren’s senses.

‘Without Divine Nine, Lauren’s heart suddenly felt empty. Although she was already very tired, she could not fall asleep after tossing and turning.

It began to rain in the middle of the night. It was as if the dark clouds that she had seen in the distance this afternoon had finally arrived above their heads.
Thunder rumbled and lightning flashed frequently, lighting up Lauren’s room.

Lauren stood up and pulled the curtains shut. She saw many ghosts on the road outside.

‘There were many more ghosts than before.

‘What was going on? The Torres family had strong energy that logically speaking, these ghosts should not have come near this place.

Lauren recited a spell and stuck a talisman on the window to disperse some of the ghosts.

Lauren returned to her bed after she saw the ghosts starting to disperse..
