Five-Year Old Prophet is Pampered by Ten Brothers

Chapter 149: Contacted Bryce

“You still know who I am? I’ve been back from overseas for so long and you still haven’t been back to see me?”

Hearing Bryce’s voice, Quinn felt a little more at ease.

After returning back home, he had encountered too many strange things. Bryce’s unchanging attitude and voice made him feel that this world was still very normal.

“It’s my third year of high school. You have to understand me.”

The youth’s voice was clear and bright.

“Alright, do you think that I didn’t know about your grades when I was abroad? If you were really so busy that you couldn’t call me, you would have already gotten first place in the entire grade, right?”

“Quinn, you’re a pot calling the kettle black. I’ve seen your past results. Our form teacher still has a file. You’re still a few places behind me.”

Bryce was in the same high school as Franklin and Quinn. Coincidentally, Bryce’s form teacher was Quinn’s form teacher back then.

After learning that Bryce was Quinn’s younger brother, the form teacher would dig up Quinn’s unglamorous past to share with the class.

“Heh, this teacher Mr. Davies really won’t let me off.”

Recalling the past, Quinn felt a lot more relaxed.

“Did you just finish your evening self-study?”

“Yeah, the class just ended at 10:30 pm. Grade 12 is really tough. I wake up early and end lessons late all the time. I don’t even have time to play anymore.”

“Quinn, take me on a trip after I finish my college entrance exam!”

Seeing that his younger brother was still being a childish brat and relying on him so much, Quinn felt much better.

“Sure, if you can get into the top 10 of the whole grade, I’ll sponsor you to travel around the world. How about it?”

“Top 10 of the whole grade? ! I’m probably still lacking…” Bryce was silent for a while, probably trying to figure out how much he was lacking. “I’m still lacking more than 200 places!”

Thomas Johnson High School was one of the best schools in the area. The students who could get into this high school every year were very outstanding.

Therefore, the three brothers in the Torres family all went to Thomas Johnson High School. In fact, the three of them had pretty good results.

There were more than 600 students in the third year of high school that Bryce was currently in. For Bryce to be ranked in the top 200 was considered a pretty good result.

However, compared to Franklin who was ranked first in every year, he was slightly inferior.

“Our Torres family’s genes are so good. If you work hard, you will definitely be able to do it. If you can get into the top 10 of the whole grade, Franklin might even reward you with a car!”

Quinn knew that Bryce was very interested in sports cars. He always played racing games and read racing magazines.

As expected, the mention of sports cars made Bryce excited.

“Really?! If that’s the case, then I’ll fight for it! I’ll get into the top 10 of the whole grade even if I don’t eat or drink!”

Hearing Bryce’s ambitious words, Quinn laughed.

Suddenly, he remembered something important.

“Oh right, when are you coming home for the weekend?”

Bryce remained silent.

“You little brat, don’t pretend you can’t hear me. I know you’re still listening.”

“Quinn, I don’t want to go back. Someone else is at home.”

Quinn pretended not to understand.

“Who is it?”

Bryce was still a minor after all, so he couldn’t keep his cool.

“It’s that Lauren! I don’t want to see her!”

Quinn sighed. He and Bryce were indeed alike.

When he first returned to the Torres family and saw Lauren, he had the same attitude as Bryce, he did not like Lauren at all.

But now…

Quinn smiled and shook his head.

“Don’t waste your breath. You’re an older brother. How can you be so calculative to a younger sister? You haven’t even met her, yet you hate her so much?”

“I hate her. No, judging from your tone…have you switched sides? Have you forgotten that we even ridiculed her together before?”

How could Quinn forget? It was just that he couldn’t bring himself to say those words now. He also didn’t want to go against his own wishes and agree with Bryce.

Thus, he could only pretend that he had forgotten.

“How young were we then? I’ve long forgotten about it.”

“Quinn, that was two months ago.”

Quinn rubbed his nose.

“Don’t worry about it, come back this weekend anyway. That’s it, and there’s no room for discussion. Goodbye.”

After saying that, Quinn immediately hung up the phone and pretended not to hear Bryce’s protest.

After chatting with Bryce for a while, Quinn felt that he was no longer as nervous and anxious.

The clouds in the sky dispersed, and a bright crescent moon emerged.

Quinn stared at the moon and slowly fell asleep.

In Franklin’s study room.

Franklin’s work efficiency was extremely low today. In the afternoon, when he was having a meeting with an overseas branch office, he let his mind drift two or three times. On top of that, some of the statistics he mentioned were wrong, and he only realized them after being reminded by his secretary.

During dinner, Franklin felt that the food was not as fragrant as it used to be without Lauren’s chattering beside him.

After dinner, in order to divert his attention, he switched on his computer and started working again.

It was only when he received the news that Lauren was still safe that he became slightly more focused.

Unknowingly, he stayed in the study room until nearly midnight. Before he went to sleep, Franklin read the notebook that Lauren left for Quinn but there was no information on them. He left a message and forced himself to go to sleep.
