Chapter 380: Rebellious Phase
Things went smoothly after that.
After they went to the hospital, the doctor arranged a full check-up on Maria’s body and found that her physical condition was much better than before.
“Although the root of the illness was still there when she gave birth, she was much better. Now that she has recuperated, she can continue to live a normal life.”
The doctor looked at Maria’s physical examination report and was stunned for a long time. “How can it be so magical? I’ve been a doctor for so many years, but I’ve never seen such a situation. How did you do it?”
Everyone was also stunned when they heard the doctor’s question.
It was definitely impossible for Franklin to tell the doctor about the pill. Therefore, in order to avoid trouble, Franklin chose his words selectively.
“On the way to the hospital, my mother vomited a huge mouthful of blood that was black in color. It’s possible that she vomited out the poison in her body.”
“Poison? But your mother wasn’t poisoned. That’s amazing. But no matter what, as long as her body recovers, she’ll be fine. I’ll prescribe some more medicine for her to continue taking. Her body still needs to recover day by day. But she’s much better now and she can basically travel freely like a normal

Maria was the happiest when she heard what the doctor said.
“Really? That’s great!” Maria sat on a chair while Lauren stood by her side and was held tightly in her arms.
After leaving the hospital, the Torres family members were in an unprecedentedly good mood.
Especially Sean.
They had never seen their father smile in this manner.
Just as they were standing outside the hospital door, ready to enjoy the moment, Bryce suddenly said, “We forgot something. What are we going to do about Grandma?”
Everyone suddenly realized that they had forgotten about the temple.
Franklin picked up his phone. “It’s okay. Let me call Grandma and tell her about the situation. We can still make it back in time to attend the ceremony in the afternoon. Grandma will definitely be happy to know that Mom is fine.”
However, Maria held onto Franklin’s hand and stopped him from making the call.
“Mom, what’s wrong?”
Franklin thought that Maria was not feeling well, but he saw that Maria looked normal and even a little nervous.
“It’s not easy for our family to get together. Why don’t we go play by ourselves today? Don’t tell your Grandma that I’ve fully recovered. Just tell her that I’m still lying in the hospital and all of you are staying by my side. This way, we’ll have an undisturbed afternoon!”
Everyone was surprised to hear this from Maria.
Lauren raised her head to look at Maria and noticed that there was a hint of slyness on her face.
Lauren thought to herself, ‘When my mother was young, she must have been a very playful girl. She could even make up such a “white elephant’ lie. I really like this lie.
If Grandma found out that she was fine, she would definitely ask them to go back to the temple.
The ceremony was too boring. Lauren did not want to go back at all!
Franklin did not expect his mother to propose this.
In his heart, Maria was a quiet person. Ever since she married into the Torres family, she did not seem to do anything according to her own wishes. She would do whatever her husband and Grandma said.
He was surprised that she had suggested this today.
However, he was willing to tell this lie to his Grandma.
He had never done anything rebellious since he was young, let alone disobey his Grandma.
At the age of twenty-something, he actually felt excited that he was going to lie.
Franklin explained the situation to Tina in a normal tone over the phone. He told her that they had to stay at the hospital.
“Don’t worry about us. This ceremony is so important. Grandma, please continue to complete it.”
Although no one could see it, Franklin had to admit that his palms were still slightly sweaty.
‘Then, he hung up the phone, looking as if he had been relieved of a heavy burden.
“All done!” Franklin held and shook his mobile phone, there was a child-like smile on his face.
Looking at Franklin, Lauren, Quinn, and Bryce smiled.
They hadn’t seen this side of Franklin yet.
“Well, where are we going? Mom, you haven’t been out for so long.. Where do you want to go?”
