During dinner that night, Lauren Torres told Franklin Torres, Quinn Torres, and Mr. Hayes about the matter. She wanted to hear them out.

“Hmm.. it is indeed strange.”

“From Ruby Cromwell’s reaction, it seems like she was really forced to eat that cake. Also, you mentioned that she seemed to be very afraid of her mother?”

Lauren Torres nodded. “Yes. When her mother came to the office previously, Ruby Cromwell behaved the same. She was very resistant to physical contact with her mother.”

Quinn Torres said, “It’s really strange. Most girls like their mothers. At Ruby Cromwell’s age, if nothing serious had happened, there wouldn’t be such a big gap between her and her mother.”

Lauren Torres agreed.

“Then what should I do? Ruby is my friend. I want to help her.”

Franklin Torres scooped up some vegetables and placed them in Lauren Torres’s bowl.

“Of course, you can help her. If you find out that this little friend named Ruby Cromwell was really hurt on purpose by her mother, then you can help her. However, don’t act rashly. After all, it’s difficult to settle a family matter. You need to have evidence first.”

Lauren Torres placed a mouthful of vegetables from her bowl into her mouth and chewed it until it made a crunching sound.

“I will definitely protect my friend!”

The following day, when Lauren Torres arrived at the kindergarten, she realized that Ruby Cromwell was already there.

She was still sitting in her usual seat. But many children were surrounding her asking about her health.

However, this time, contrary to her usual silence, she had carefully answered the children’s questions.

“I was allergic to chocolate after I ate chocolate cake. That’s why I didn’t come to school yesterday.”

The children were very happy when Ruby Cromwell answered their questions.

Ever since she saved Milo Barker, Ruby Cromwell had been the little idol in everyone’s hearts.

Of course, they were very happy to be able to talk to the little idol.

“Ruby, then why did you eat that cake?”

These children were all in the senior class, so they naturally knew what to eat and what not to.

Of course, they shouldn’t eat things that they were not supposed to eat.

“Oh, it was a chocolate cake that my mother bought. My mother said that there was no chocolate in that cake, so I ate it. In the end, there was, so I was sent to the hospital due to allergy.”

“Was it scary in the hospital? Did you get an injection? Did it hurt?”

The children’s attention was all over the place, except for Lauren Torres who was still struggling and confused by Susan Harding.

Who was telling the truth?

What Susan Harding said to Ben Carson yesterday was that she bought the chocolate cake to celebrate the birthday of the child next door. However, Ruby Cromwell said Susan Harding had said that there was no chocolate in the cake.

It was very strange.

Perhaps it was because Lauren Torres visited Ruby Cromwell that the relationship between them had become even closer. After getting along with her, Lauren Torres realized that Ruby Cromwell was indeed a very cute girl. It was just that she usually closed herself up so that no one could see her.

As such, she believed Ruby Cromwell even more.

She even introduced Joie Donahue and Milo Barker to Ruby Cromwell. The four of them became very good friends.

It was another day after school. Lauren Torres and Ruby Cromwell could now walk to the math class by themselves.

When Ruby Cromwell got all her answers right and was praised by John Zander again, Lauren Torres nudged Ruby Cromwell’s elbow.

“Ruby, you’re amazing. I heard from Mr. Zander that these questions are all junior and senior high school questions. And you actually know how to do.”

Apart from the elementary school’s Olympiad Math, Lauren Torres also knew how to solve the other questions. It was just that Franklin Torres had warned her not to stand out too much, or else she would be targeted.

Therefore, Lauren Torres had restrained herself a little. Every time she did the questions, she would deliberately make one or two mistakes. During the class when she was called out to answer questions, she would also deliberately make mistakes.

Sometimes, she found that Ruby Cromwell’s problem-solving speed was a little slow, and her train of thought was also stuck sometimes.

However, compared to the other children, she was considered very good.

In particular, she was only at this age, but she had already reached this level. This made Lauren Torres wonder if there was a system inside Ruby Cromwell’s body.

Of course, this suspicion was quickly denied by the appearance of System Divine Nine.

System Divine Nine: Impossible! Every country can only have one system.

Alright, since this was the case, Lauren Torres had no choice but to admit that Ruby Cromwell’s ability to learn so well was probably due to her talent.
