The most important thing now should be to find the Horcrux hidden in the Torres family. Once she found this thing, the ghost would have no place to hide. Lauren could then also use her spiritual consciousness to detect the location of the ghost.

“Miss Lauren, the cake is ready. Come and have a taste. Let’s see if it tastes good.” Zelda placed the plate containing the cake on the coffee table and prepared to leave to do her own things.

Lauren suddenly reached out and held Zelda’s hand.

“Aunt Zelda, Lauren is so bored eating by herself! Can you accompany Lauren?”

When Lauren was not carrying out her mission, she always had a harmless and adorable look on her face. Zelda, who was held by her hand, could only sit on the sofa cautiously.

.

“Miss Torres, I’m just a servant. It’s not good for me to sit on this sofa. If Mr. Hayes sees this, he will scold me.”

“No, Lauren will explain it to Grandpa Hayes!” Lauren picked up a small piece of cake with a fork and put it in her mouth. The pink cream on the cake was strawberry-flavored. Lauren’s eyes lit up after eating it.

“Aunt Zelda, the cake you made is so delicious! Your daughter must be very happy to be able to eat the cake you made!”

The clever Lauren decided to trick Zelda first. After all, the Torres residence was so big and there was no aura of the Horcrux. It would definitely take a lot of time to find it blindly.

She might as well start with Zelda and see if she could get anything out of her.

Zelda beamed when she heard Lauren praise her culinary skills. “That’s right. My daughter also likes to eat the pastries I make the most. She’s the same as Miss Torres. She also likes strawberry-flavored things the most.”

“Then, Aunt Zelda, where is your daughter now? Your daughter will be very sad when she leaves her mother, just like Lauren.”

When she talked about her daughter, Zelda was obviously much more relaxed.

“My daughter is five years older than Miss Torres. She is now living with her grandparents in her hometown. I can only go back to visit her at the end of the year.”

[ System Divine Nine: That’s strange. I think Zelda is quite normal. Moreover, I can’t feel any evil aura from her body. ]

Lauren said, “This mission involves the Horcrux, so it doesn’t matter what aura it has. The evil aura can be completely concealed. Little Nine, we can’t let our guard down.”

When the flower pot fell that day, Lauren had clearly felt the evil aura from Zelda’s body. She didn’t pay much attention to it that day and only thought that it was a simple personal grudge.

But now, it seemed that everything was connected.

[ System Divine Nine: But the Horcrux can only affect the soul. Zelda is a human being. The evil and kindness in her body can not be changed because of the Horcrux. ]

Lauren was so close to Zelda and she indeed didn’t sense any evil aura from her.

“This doesn’t make sense...” Lauren muttered in her heart. After listening to Little Nine’s analysis, she did not seem to be wrong. “Could it be that I’ve really wronged Aunt Zelda?”

“Miss Torres, why are you suddenly in a daze? Do you want more cake? I’ve made quite a lot!” Zelda smiled and looked at Lauren as if she was looking at her own daughter.

Lauren also came back to her senses. “Lauren, you can’t eat anymore! Hello, Aunt Zelda, Lauren’s stomach is already round. Lauren, you have to eat less, so that in the future, you can be like your brother and have long legs!”

“Not at all. Miss Torres looks very cute like this. Her little face is chubby. She’s very lucky!” Aunt Zelda said as she began to clear the dishes.

Ben asked Franklin for two days off. Lauren guessed that Ben must have wanted to cherish the last two days with his wife.

“Aunt Zelda, where’s your husband? where is he? I saw in the TV series that husbands and wives have to stay together! Although Lauren is young, she knows a lot!”

At this moment, the sharp-eyed Lauren noticed Aunt Zelda’s action of cleaning up the dishes and paused.

“Ah, my husband, he...”

Suddenly, there were some sounds coming from the kitchen. Zelda picked up the dishes and left in a hurry, not answering this question.

“Aunt Zelda’s reaction is a little strange. Little Nine, is there any way for us to know where Aunt Zelda’s husband went?”

[ System Divine Nine: we can only ask the butler for Zelda’s information. Although we can communicate with those from the Underworld, we never abuse our ability to explore the Underworld unless it is very urgent. ]

Lauren had no choice but to look for Mr. Hayes and act coquettishly.

However, she did not get anything useful from him either.
