Five-Year Old Prophet is Pampered by Ten Brothers

"I think your granddaughter's name is Apolline. She was a flower girl for your son Jack at the wedding banquet last year."

Apolline smiled and nodded at Franklin when her name was suddenly mentioned.

"Hello, Mr. Franklin. My name is Apolline White. I've heard so much about you from Grandma. It's my honor to meet you here."

Lauren stood rooted to the ground. How could a six-year-old girl say such a thing? Why was she so formal?

Upon hearing what Apolline said, Sophia patted her on the back. It was as if she was praising her.

Franklin smiled. "Apolline is really polite."

Sophia did not hide her satisfaction.

"Yes, I've taught this child etiquette since she was young. She's doing very well now."

After saying that, she cast a casual glance at Lauren. However, her gaze only lingered on Lauren for a moment before she turned to look at Franklin.

Naturally, Franklin understood what Sophia meant. He waved at Lauren, and Lauren ran to his side and leaned against his leg.

"Madam White, this is..."

"I know who she is. You guys placed Lauren in someone else's care for a few years, right? Why is she back? I remember Tina saying that Lauren was a threat to the Torres family and could never be brought back. Why is she suddenly back now?"

The news of the Torres family sending their granddaughter away had caused quite a stir back then, so everyone was well aware of the reason behind it. This was especially true for Sophia, who was also a good friend of the matriarch of the Torres family, Tina.

Even though the old lady in front of Lauren looked rather scary and overly serious, Lauren did not care.

She raised her hand and waved at Sophia. "Hello, Grandma. I'm Lauren."

Sophia opened her mouth slightly. Apolline, who was beside Sophia, had an even more exaggerated reaction. She actually raised her hand and covered her mouth with it, as if Lauren's actions just now were extremely unbelievable.

Lauren felt a little upset in her heart. They were not living in the 15th or 16th century. Was there a need to act like this?

It was obvious that Sophia could lower her head and talk to Lauren, but she refused to do so. She raised her head high and then lowered her eyes as if looking at Lauren would taint her eyes. Clearly, she did not have the slightest respect for Lauren.

Of course, her words were equally infuriating.

"You don't have to call me grandma. You can just call me Madam White."

What Sophia meant was that Lauren did not have the right to address her so intimately.

Lauren pursed her lips.

Both Franklin and Bryce called her 'grandma'. But when it came to her, she could not follow suit. Instead, she could only call her Madame White.

It was obvious that Sophia did not think that she was on the same level as Franklin and Bryce.

Before Lauren could speak again, Bryce, who had never dared to utter a single word in front of Sophia, actually took a step forward.

"That's true, Franklin. I don't think that we should call her 'grandma' either. After all, she's such a respectable person. How could we possibly be worthy of her? It's better to follow Lauren and address her as Madame White."

When Sophia heard what Bryce said, she was stunned for a moment before she realized what he meant.

She looked at Franklin. She originally thought that Franklin would criticize his younger brother, but she did not expect Franklin to actually look at Bryce with a smile in his eyes. He nodded in agreement.

"You're right. Calling her 'grandma' is indeed a little too much. It's better for us to call her Madame White, in case our virtue cannot match up to her social position."

Franklin's words and smile seemed to be hiding a dagger.

He seemed to be referring to themselves, but in reality, he was referring to Sophia.

This was the first time they had come into contact with Sophia alone without Tina, and they had grown bolder.

Sophia did not expect that the eldest grandson of the Torres family would dare to talk to her in this manner. She was so angry that she was trembling. However, she quickly calmed down and returned to her normal smile, as if she did not care about the younger generation.

"I didn't expect that the three of you would stand together as one."

"Of course. We can only resist an outsider only when we are united."

It was unknown what actually triggered Franklin today, but he continued to speak sarcastically to Sophia.

Franklin nodded at Sophia and said, "Madam White, I'll leave first with my siblings. I still need to buy a few sets of clothes for my sister."

After saying that, he pulled Lauren out of the store.

"You can buy them at this store. I think this store is pretty good. The style of their dresses are simple and elegant. My granddaughter's clothes are all bought here."

After saying that, Sophia glanced at Lauren as if she despised the purple dress she was wearing.
