Feeling the sofa next to her sinking in, she still lowered her head.
Franklin Torres let out a soft sigh and raised his hand to touch the back of Lauren Torres’s head.
“Don’t be sad.”
Franklin Torres said that and tears began to fall from Lauren Torres’s eyes.
People were strange. If no one asked, they would be very strong. It was as if they could hold on to everything. However, once someone asked about it, they would feel extremely wronged. This was exactly what happened to Lauren Torres now.
Tears of the size of beans dripped down one by one. Very quickly, they dyed Lauren Torres’s light blue jeans into dark blue.
Franklin Torres kept patting Tang Lan’s back gently, but he did not say much.
Seeing this, Quinn Torres also stood up and sat down beside Lauren Torres. Feeling the warmth coming from both sides, Lauren Torres cried even harder.
After a while, Lauren Torres asked with a sobbing tone, “Do you guys think that Mom’s illness is really because of me?”
Originally, Lauren Torres did not believe it either. But today’s incident was simply too coincidental. Just like what they said, Maria Julian had not been ill for more than a year. However, when she was alone with Lauren Torres today, something like this happened.
Moreover, the doctor just now had also said that Maria Julian’s illness came out of the blue, and there was no cause for it. This had made it even stranger.
Hearing Lauren Torres’s question, Franklin Torres and Quinn Torres looked at each other. They did not know how to answer.
After getting along with Lauren Torres for more than a month, and going through some stuff, they knew Lauren Torres’s character.
So, Franklin Torres had no choice but to say, “Mom is fine now, don’t let your imagination run wild. It’s good that she’s fine.”
Lauren Torres nodded while sobbing. However, she still couldn’t let go of this matter easily.
They finished lunch very quickly. Wendy still made lunch. However, only Lauren Torres, Franklin Torres, and Quinn Torres were eating in the dining room.
Bryce Torres did not come out of his room. Sean Torres stayed in the room with Maria Julian and refused to go downstairs. Wendy had to bring the food upstairs.
Maria Julian’s condition had stabilized tremendously. However, she still needed to finish the drip.
Due to the drip, Maria Julian was sleeping and did not wake up. However, she was no longer panting and had returned to normal. Just that her face was a little pale.
Sean Torres felt a lingering fear, so he kept Maria Julian company. He was worried that something would happen to her again.
No one fought for meat with Lauren Torres during lunch, but Lauren Torres was not happy either.
This was the first time she had the experience of losing appetite.
She looked at the untouched meat on the plate and thought, “If I continue to be like this, I’ll definitely lose weight.”.
After dinner, Wendy washed the dishes in the kitchen.
Lauren Torres tugged at Franklin Torres’s sleeve.
“What’s the matter?”
“Brother, I want to go and see Mom.”
After saying this, Lauren Torres looked at the stairs. Ever since Maria Julian was carried into the room, Sean Torres had never come out from the room.
He was still in the room. Thus Lauren Torres did not dare to go in.
Although she had seen or even been lectured by a fiercer person, Sean Torres had the dignity of a parent.
Even so, she still had to go in to see Maria Julian.
Mission 3 had been completed, and one of the rewards of Mission 3 was a revival pill.
She wanted to keep this life-saving pill by Maria Julian’s side. She also wanted to give the doll she had brought over to Maria Julian as well. She would also want to see what kind of illness Maria Julian had, and maybe she could help.
Franklin Torres did not know what Lauren Torres was thinking. He only thought that Lauren Torres wanted to see their mother.
Looking at Lauren Torres’s dejected look, Franklin Torres pinched her face.
“Of course, I’ll arrange.”
Lauren Torres nodded.
“That’s good. Thank you, Brother. But will Mom refuse to see me?”
Franklin Torres felt sorry for Lauren Torres. Regardless of whose fault it was, he did not want a four-and-a-half-year-old child to bear such blame.
“Of course not. Why would Mom dislike you?”
In fact, when he came back to visit his parents previously, he had occasionally seen Maria Julian holding a photo in her room and crying secretly.
He recognized the photo. He had seen it once before.
It was the first photo taken by the nurse as requested by Maria Julian when she had just given birth to Lauren Torres.
At that time, Lauren Torres had crepy skin on her body and didn’t look like the current Lauren Torres at all. She was very small in size.
