Five-Year Old Prophet is Pampered by Ten Brothers

Chapter 269: Live With Us

When Lauren and Carina entered the ward with big bags in their hands, Ruby was painting.

Compared to Ruby's mathematics and her other abilities, the painting was one of the few things that made Lauren feel that Ruby was like a child.

Her paintings were very childlike and bright in color.

Lauren went up to see what Ruby had drawn. In the background was a house. There was an apple tree planted in the courtyard. The apple tree was heavy with mellow fruit.

In the small courtyard was a family. They were holding hands together as they stood there.

From the characters drawn on the paper, Lauren could tell that there was a father, a mother, a young teenager, and a child.

Seeing that Carina and Lauren came to visit her, Ruby put away the drawing book.

"Ruby, are you feeling better today? Lauren and I brought you some clothes."

"I'm feeling much better. Thank you, Ms. Bailey. Thank you, Lauren!"

Lauren sat on the chair which was placed in front of the bed, shaking her head.

"You're welcome. You're my good friend. Look! I brought you some milk. Joie and Milo asked me to bring milk to you. They said that you should drink more and eat more so that you can grow up quickly and be healthy."

Taking the milk, Ruby smiled and expressed the gratitude sincerely.

"I will tell them that you are grateful to them!"

The social worker sent by the local community was a woman in her thirties, who looked very kind. When she saw that someone came to visit Ruby, she went out to wait.

Taking a few sips of milk, Ruby asked, "Ms. Bailey, may I ask… may I ask how my mother is?"

Carina paused for a moment, not knowing what Ruby's attitude was.

"Your mother is still at the police station. She refused to admit that she did those things to you. When you get better, the police officers will come and ask you some questions, okay?"

Ruby nodded. "Okay. But… if the police officers believe her words and don't believe me, do I still have to live with her in the future?"

"I am fearful of living with her."

Carina shook her head, not knowing how the police and the community would handle this matter.

However, the country's child protection law was very comprehensive. If Ruby did not want to live with Susan badly, the community would definitely help her.

"Ruby, don't worry about these things for the time being. We'll talk about it in the future. But now, you definitely won't live together, so you don't have to be afraid."

"As long as there's evidence, the police will definitely investigate it thoroughly!"

Ruby nodded, lowering her head to drink her milk again.

That night, Franklin came to pick her up again. On the way back, Lauren told Franklin about how she found photos of Rene and Samuel in Ruby's drawer.

"Franklin, why did Ruby have photos of them?"Lauren asked.

As soon as Lauren got into the car, she started blabbering non-stop.

"She and Rene knew each other when they were in kindergarten. That's normal, but why does she have a photo of her brother, Samuel Sullivan?"

Franklin frowned as well. "It is indeed a little strange, but maybe she got his photo by coincidence."

However, this matter had nothing to do with Lauren, so Lauren did not put too much thought into it. She just sighed to herself that there were too many coincidences in this world!

Later on, she brought up Ruby again.

"If Ruby's mother is imprisoned in the future, where will Ruby live?"

"The community will definitely arrange a place for her to live. If her mother is really sentenced, they will definitely find another family for Ruby."

"I see. Then before they found a new family for her, Franklin, Could Ruby live with us? She will sleep with me! She will be discharged from the hospital soon, and I don't know where she can go after that! She told us in the hospital today that she didn't want to go home."

Franklin had never refused her requests. Besides, what Lauren intended to do was not a bad thing. She just wanted to help her friend.

Considering that he would be very busy for the next two months, it was good to have Ruby accompany her.

"If the community and Ruby accept this idea, then she can definitely live with us. In addition, Ruby also knows Rene and Samuel."

This gave Franklin another reason.

"Wow, really? Franklin, you're so great. You're the best brother in the world!"

The glowing terms he received from Lauren made him go into rapture.. He was not this happy when he was praised by the big shots in important meetings.
