Chapter 141 - Good Bye
Following that, Lauren spent a long time explaining her plan to Franklin in detail. Only then did he feel more secure.
At noon, Franklin and Lauren went out for lunch. Lauren wanted to eat a hamburger at KFC, so Franklin brought her there.
There was a KFC near Torres Corporation. At noon, a lot of Torres Corporation's employees went there for lunch.
When they saw Franklin walk in through the door, many of the employees were stunned.
They were whispering to each other.
"Oh my god, this is the first time I've seen President Torres since I started working here. His legs are so long! I love it!
"
"President Torres actually ate KFC at noon. Look, who's that little girl next to him? Could she be President Torres's daughter?
"
"I think she's President Torres's sister. Someone bumped into her downstairs just now.
"
All the employees were all gossiping. Franklin had long gotten used to these gazes.
He walked to the ordering counter and ordered two meals. Then, he held Lauren's hand and looked around.
At this time, there were no more seats in the restaurant. Franklin looked around but could not find any empty seats.
At this time, another employee of the Torres Group walked over.
"President Torres, why don't you take my seat? I'll just squeeze in with the other table.
"
Franklin didn't refuse. He nodded and thanked him.
"I talked on eye level with President Torres! His voice is so gentle!
"
"Isn't there a rumor that the younger daughter of the Torres family doesn't have a good relationship with them? It doesn't seem like it now. Look at how well President Torres treats his sister.
"
"Exactly. The two of them seem to get along very well. I wish I had an older brother like President Torres.
"
Lauren and Franklin sat opposite each other. Lauren didn't know if it was her imagination or something else, but she always felt that the people around them were secretly watching them.
"Franklin, are these all your employees?
"
Franklin nodded. All of them had Torres Corporation name tags.
"Franklin, you're too amazing. You have such a big company, but...why are all your employees looking at me? Is there something dirty on my face?
"
"There's nothing dirty on your face. It's just that you look too cute. That's why they all want to take a look.
"
One of the waiters arrived with their food. There were hamburgers, fries, chicken wings and cola on the tray.
Lauren was drooling just from smelling the food, and the thought of the stares quickly disappeared from her mind.
"Hurry up and eat. Have a good rest after you eat.
"
Lauren nodded, she picked up her burger and gobbled it up.
The employees inside the restaurant didn't want to leave after they finished eating. They were secretly watching the two of them.
Some of them even took out their cell phones and took photos to post on the forum.
The employees could post anonymously on the Torres Group's forum, so they were not afraid of exposing their identities.
Franklin had never appeared on the forum, so the employees naturally thought that Franklin would not know about it.
They even discussed the private lives of some executives on the forum.
Of course, there was nothing to discuss about Franklin.
Other than his secretary, Franklin never had a woman by his side, so there was nothing much to gossip about.
After a while, a photo of Franklin and Lauren having dinner was posted on the forum's front page.
The single female employees lamented that Franklin was such a good brother, and many of them praised how cute Lauren was.
"With such good looks, no wonder they're a family!
"
Of course, Lauren, who was eating a hamburger, did not know all about this. Otherwise, she would definitely have jumped up and down in joy.
After the meal, Lauren hopped into Ben's car with satisfaction.
If Franklin did not have a very important international meeting to attend this afternoon, he would have accompanied Lauren there.
However, he really couldn't get away from the meeting. In addition, Lauren had already repeatedly assured him that she would return safely, so Franklin was put at ease.
"I'll leave first. Wait for my good news! I'll be someone who make a great contribution the next time I come back.
"
Lauren patted her own chest with a confident look on her face. This made Franklin feel less worried.
He waved to Lauren.
"Got it. Just be safe.
"
The image of Lauren in the car and Franklin outside, reluctant to part with each other, was photographed by the employees of the Torres Group. The photograph quickly appeared on the forum.
"I'm so touched. It was just one afternoon, and they were so reluctant to part.
"
"Exactly. I used to think that President Torres was just handsome, but I didn't expect him to be so devoted to his family. He's such a wonderful man.. I wonder who will marry him in the future.
"
