"Franklin! He's a bad influence on children!

" Lauren pointed at Bryce, complaining to Franklin.

The streets outside were bustling with activity. Lauren and Bryce in the car also created a joyful atmosphere.

"So, what's the answer?

" Franklin was very interested in knowing the answer as well.

Bryce flipped to the answer again. The answer was actually two-thirds!

Bryce rubbed his eyes.

Did I misread the answer?!

"No, you must have peeked at the answer. The answers were printed on the back of the test paper. You might have peeked at it.

"

Hearing what he said, Lauren was lost for words. She threw the pen back to Bryce.

"Oh! If you don't believe me, then so be it.

"

Then, Lauren angrily crossed her arms in front of her chest, turned her head to the other side, and looked out of the window.

She looked as if she was saying,

"I'm angry. Don't disturb me.

".

Bryce looked at Lauren and then looked at the test paper in his hand. He shook his head, still unwilling to believe that Lauren was right.

Just like that, the two inexplicably did not get along with each other well. Even when Franklin parked his car in the parking lot, the two still ignored each other.

On Saturday, there were many people in the shopping mall.

Franklin was mature and handsome while Bryce was extremely youthful. Lauren was dolled up like a little princess today. She was dressed in bright purple. The two of them looked like her knights.

The three of them walked in the mall, attracting countless gazes.

In fact, there were quite a number of people who recognized Franklin. After all, Franklin was someone who often appeared in various financial magazines.

Franklin was already used to receiving glances from others, so he did not show any response.

They wanted to go to the children's wear section, so they had to pass by the amusement arcade on the second floor.

However, when Lauren saw so many doll machines and the various amusement facilities inside the arcade, she could not move her legs.

"Franklin, just play with me for a while! Franklin...

"

Franklin looked at his suit and then looked at the amusement arcade that was decorated with colorful lights in the distance. He deeply felt that the decision he made to bring Lauren here today was wrong.

In the end, Franklin was pulled by Lauren to exchange for a few hundred game coins.

"Franklin! I want to catch the doll!

"

"Again? Didn't you take a lot of dolls the last time you went to the amusement park?

"

"Those dolls were not caught in the doll machine. I caught them with loops. Look at the dolls inside. They are Disney's characters. They are so pretty.

"

As Lauren spoke, she held onto Franklin's hand, waving his hand coquettishly. Her eyes were watery and endearing.

Lauren took a liking to the new doll that Disney had recently released. The moment the doll was released, it instantly won the hearts of everyone. It was sold out everywhere. Lauren finally managed to find one, so she was very excited. She wanted to pick it out.

Franklin held Lauren in his arms while she was controlling the doll machine.

However, the claws of the doll machines in the shopping mall had been adjusted. The claws had no strength. Every time Lauren picked up the cute doll, the claws would loosen.

After she tried more than ten times, the doll still did not move.

Lauren patted the glass window of the doll machine angrily.

Franklin smiled, putting down Lauren. Just as he was about to do it himself, Bryce, who had been watching the battle for a long time, took a step forward.

"Let me do it! I'm so good at this kind of thing. When I was in middle school, I skipped class to go to the amusement arcade with my classmates...

"

As he spoke, his voice became lower and lower.

He glanced at Franklin who stood beside him, seeing that Franklin looked at him with a faint smile on his face.

Oh no! It seemed like he had exposed himself.

Bryce immediately stopped talking about his past events.

"Haha, Franklin, I was just joking. Give me the coins.

"

The few hundred coins that Franklin had exchanged for were all placed in Lauren's bag. Bryce was now reaching out his hands to ask for game coins from Lauren.

Lauren was still holding a grudge against Bryce for what had just happened. She placed her hands on her hips, deliberately ignoring Bryce.

"If you don't give game coins to me, someone will snatch this doll away from you.

"

Then Lauren saw that there were two children who were slightly older than her. They were staring at their doll machine with eager eyes.

Lauren quickly called a truce. She took out a few game coins from her bag and placed them in Bryce's hands.

"This is all you can get. Before you use up all of them, you must catch that doll for me!

"

"No Problem!

"

Bryce was extremely confident. He picked up a game coin and stuffed it into the machine.

Lauren stood on her tiptoes and leaned on the control desk to watch.

The two children beside her were also staring at them.

However, Bryce did not manage to catch the doll.. In fact, the claws he controlled did not touch anything but air.
