Franklin took it with a frown.
There were four villas in the Whitecliff residential area of the western suburbs. With a look, you could tell they were villas.
“I don’t know where Miss Torres got these things either. If this is really a house, I wouldn’t dare to accept it. This is worth a lot of money. I wouldn’t be able to repay it even if I worked like a horse or a cow.”
Franklin’s hand that was holding the key gently caressed the bump of the key.
“Master Franklin, I’ll leave the key and the note to you. Oh right, what about Miss Torres? Are you going to let her live outside?”
Franklin’s head ached at the mention of this..
“Of course not. I’ll think of something tomorrow.”
Mr. Hayes nodded, a little hesitant to speak.
“Mr. Hayes, if you have something to say, just say it. In this family, besides Grandma, you’re the elder we respect the most.”
Mr. Hayes rubbed his hands together.
“Master Franklin, I know I have no right to interfere in the Torres family’s affairs, but Master Quinn’s words to Miss Torres were really too excessive. Even I felt wronged when I heard it, let alone a young lady like Miss Torres.”
“If it were any other child from an ordinary family, they would have endured it humbly. But Miss Torres’s personality is stubborn. Look, she ran away from home in this case.”
Franklin sighed. “Mr. Hayes, I know what you want to say. It’s just that Lauren is in the Torres family...it’s not an easy thing to get everyone to accept Lauren. It still takes time.”
Mr. Hayes stood to the side, shaking his head and sighing.
After Mr. Hayes left, Franklin carefully examined the key.
The three letters ‘TLL’ carved on it caught his attention.
‘TLL’ referred to Lauren. It was not difficult to guess.
Franklin did not doubt the authenticity of the key. After all, this kind of thing could be easily discovered. There was really no need to lie about it.
After spending a few days with Lauren, Franklin also knew that although what Lauren said sometimes sounded like a fantasy, they would all come true.
The question now was why did Lauren have such a house?
There were still a lot of questions on this younger sister that were waiting for them to discover and unravel the mysteries.
He thought for a moment and called his secretary. After a while, he got a call from the manager of the Dream Villa.
Although he did not know how Lauren got there, Franklin wanted to try his best to help Lauren.
“Hello, I am Scott Kennedy, the manager of the Dream Villa. May I know who you are?”
A customer’s phone call would usually be received at the front desk. Those who could call him directly would definitely be some big clients. Therefore, Scott was extremely attentive in his reception.
Even if Dream Villa did not accept pulling strings, it was still good to accumulate more connections.
“Hello, Mr. Kennedy. I am Franklin.”
Franklin?
Scott silently read the name.
“Are you Mr. Franklin Torres, the President of Torres Group?”
“Yes.”
Scott’s hands were shaking. Although they had worked together with Torres group before, this was the first time they had received a call from the President. Moreover, Franklin Torres was someone that everyone admired and envied. His fame was no less than that of celebrities nowadays.
“Hello, President Torres. How can I help you?”
“Did you receive a guest named Lauren over there?”
Franklin did not know if it was his imagination, but he felt that when he said Lauren’s name, the other party seemed to be surprised.
“I’m sorry, President Torres. We don’t have the right to disclose information about our clients.”
“Lauren is my biological sister. She went to Dream Villa today. According to the law, I’m also considered her guardian and have the obligation to take care of her.”
Franklin had been dominating the negotiation table for so many years, so his negotiation ability was naturally good. Coupled with his domineering CEO aura, Scott was defeated.
“Since you put it that way, I can’t hide it. Yes, Miss Torres is here today.”
“Is she staying there?”
“Yes, she is.”
Franklin chuckled. This little girl was really capable. She was actually staying at Dream Return Villa.
“In that case, I’ll have to trouble you to help me take care of my younger sister. If you have any problems, feel free to let me know. Just send the bill to my secretary.”
“Oh...no trouble, no trouble.”
After saying a few more words, Scott hung up the phone and heaved a sigh of relief.
His boss was actually the daughter of the famous Torres family, and also the younger sister of the business prodigy Franklin Torres. As expected, there was a saying ‘birds of a feather flock together’.
Lauren was so good at doing business and had a sharp eye. She was also from the same lineage as her brother.
However, how could his own boss let him take care of her? That was his boss!
Scott shook his head and made a phone call to tell Lauren what had just happened.
“Got it.” After Lauren heard it, this was the only reaction she had. She was extremely cold.
Scott wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, as it was really not easy to be sandwiched between the two Presidents!
