Chapter 260 - Pending Reward?
Chapter 260: Pending Reward?
Lauren Torres did not bicker with Franklin Torres, so she naturally would not speak to Franklin Torres in such a manner. Therefore, she was speaking to Bryce Torres.
Bryce Torres pointed to his nose and said, “Who’s that? Are you calling me?”
Lauren Torres nodded and said, “Yes, I am calling you. But it’s not that I am impolite. It’s just that if I call you Elder Brother, will you dare to answer me?”
Bryce Torres hesitated for a moment. He indeed didn’t dare.
He hadn’t accepted Lauren Torres as his younger sister yet. This time, it was just a strategic partnership.
So, he had no choice but to accept his second nameless identity after the identity of bodyguard.
‘Who’s that?’
Since he had promised Lauren Torres to complete this mission together, he would definitely do it well.
Thus early in the morning that day, the female students of class two, senior high school grade found themselves inexplicably being pulled into a group chat.
There was a guy among the girls — Bryce Torres.
Bryce Torres was the man of the hour here.
He was good-looking, his study was not bad, and he just hung out with guys.
Countless girls had written love letters to him and he had politely rejected them. Thus everyone was even more impressed by him.
Therefore, when Bryce Torres raised his question in the group, every girl started to activate their gossip cell and sent all the versions of the stories they knew to Bryce Torres.
Of course, some versions looked ridiculous which Bryce Torres automatically ignored.
These girls even brought along their best friends from other classes to dig up the story together.
Bryce Torres’s What’s App kept ringing. When they were having dinner at home, Mr. Hayes even teased him if he was dating.
Therefore, in one morning, Bryce Torres had roughly understood the whole story.
When the family was having dinner, Bryce Torres brought up the incident.
“10 years ago, Fiona Karl was a senior high school grade two student. At that time, a boy in her class liked her. However, one of Fiona Karl’s good friends also liked the boy. After that, her relationship with Fiona Karl went sour.”
“This good friend’s name is Danika.”
“After Danika found out that her good friend was her love rival, she kept bullying Fiona Karl in school. In the end, Fiona Karl died.”
The few people who heard the story could not help but sigh. A young girl actually died because of her companion’s jealousy. No wonder her soul had been wandering around Thomas Johnson High School for so long. She could not rest in peace for a long time.
Lauren Torres bit her chopsticks.
“Then, has there been any news about that Danika?”
Bryce Torres shook his head. “No, she withdrew from the school at that time. Danika’s family was rich and powerful, while Fiona Karl was just a child from an ordinary family. Danika’s family quickly suppressed this matter. Thus Danika did not receive any punishment because of this. She seemed to have left the country.”
Therefore, Fiona Karl wanted to attract everyone’s attention because of this incident. She probably wanted to seek justice as well.
At this moment, the system’s voice rang in Lauren Torres’s mind again. ‘Ding!’ There was a new mission for Lauren Torres.
[Mission 5: Investigate the truth about Fiona Karl’s incident and recover the female ghost.]
[Mission duration: One month]
[Mission level: three stars]
[Mission reward: pending]
Lauren Torres: “?”
“Little Nine, why is the mission reward pending?”
[System Divine Nine: This… Host, I’m also a newbie in this aspect. Maybe it’s just to surprise you!]
“Just don’t scare me!”
[System Divine Nine: It’s hard to say. There are still a lot of things to explore!]
“…”
Lauren Torres did not want to explore at all.
Once, the mission reward was a dress. Lauren Torres was looking forward to the reward but the dress was only the size of Lauren Torres’s palm!
Lauren Torres had no choice but to give it to her Barbie doll.
However, if she wanted to investigate the truth of the matter, she had to let the female ghost stay longer so that she could get more information out of her.
At the thought of this, Lauren Torre started thinking about who she should ask for help from.
After dinner, she excused herself and went back to her room to do her homework. She then entered her spiritual consciousness.
“Little Nine, I want to meet Pam again.”
Previously Lauren Torres was able to find a solution to this matter was all because of Pam’s experience.
