Lorraine didn't like to lie, so when Agnes asked her directly, she admitted it.

She nodded, without saying much.

"I knew it would be like this."

"You, my child, have always had a cautious personality. If it weren't for being wronged, you wouldn't have wanted to leave home."

"Grandma, I'm sorry."

"Why apologize? It's not your fault," Agnes defended, knowing for sure that her idiotic grandson had done something embarrassing again.

"I just felt that the matters of our younger generation should not have disturbed you."

"But ever since I came to our the Mercer family, I have been deeply taken care of by you. In my heart, you are the elder I respect the most, so I wanted to come and tell you. I have been feeling a bit troubled recently and I thought about going out for some peace and quiet. I kindly ask Grandma to agree."

Actually, Lorraine was also unsure if Agnes would agree.

What should she do if Agnes doesn't agree and beg

    There was a silence for three to four seconds before Jaden finally said one word, "Yes.""Jaden, I was already married," Lorraine planned to drop a bombshell."I knew," he said, his tone surprisingly calm.Now it was Lorraine's turn to be shocked, seeing Jaden's reaction, it seemed like he had known all along.She chuckled self-deprecatingly, and rightly so, with Jaden's social status, what is there to investigate? Isn't it a piece of cake?"So, do not develop feelings for married individuals.""This was not beneficial for you, and it was also disrespectful to me.""You understood this kind of relationship."Lorraine didn't want to moralize and lecture, but in the midst of it all, she believed that Jaden, being so intelligent, would immediately understand her meaning."Lorraine, I knew you were not with Dawson because of love.""It was just a trade that happened by a twist of fate.""I am not sure if Dawson

    "Don't worry, Mr. Ellerker is fine. He only sustained minor injuries, a mild concussion, and a slight crack in his left rib."Upon hearing that it was a minor injury, the Ellerker family finally breathed a sigh of relief."How could my brother have run a red light?" Tiana recalled the surveillance footage she had just watched at the traffic police station.It was indeed Jaden who ran the red light first, leading to the car accident, but fortunately, the truck driver was unharmed.The Ellerker family's legal team stepped in to handle the situation, and the news started to fade away."The secretary said that before my brother had a car accident, he was not at the company but in the downtown area.""But without any work arrangements, why did my brother go to the city center?""That area, it wasn't a place he often went to, strange." Tiana, being very clever, always felt that her brother was acting strangely."Mr. Ellerker has fini

    Lorraine: Ms. Ellerker, I was not your brother's girlfriend.Tiana quickly learned that, it turned out the two of them hadn't confirmed their relationship yet.Tiana: Even if we were not girlfriends, we were still friends, right? Is it reasonable for you to act like this?Lorraine: Ms. Ellerker, my brother and I... there are some things that are quite complicated and cannot be explained in just a few words. Moreover, this matter involves personal privacy, so I cannot explain it to you.Tiana: Do you know that my brother never ran a red light?Tiana: But when he had the accident today, he actually ran a red light? Luckily the driver on the opposite side was rational, otherwise it could have been two lives lost. My brother is usually so cautious, but today he was absent-minded. What did you say to my brother? Did you force him to do something? You seductive fox.Lorraine: Ms. Ellerker, I have already said, this matter was private and I have no

    Waiting and waiting, Dawson fell asleep.And when he woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, he glanced at his phone and there was no activity.The woman did not reply."Damn it, you're pretending with me, huh?""If you have the ability, never come back for the rest of your life. Damn it, what a disgrace to give face."Dawson grumbled and complained, venting his emotions, but he only dared to speak to himself.The next morning."Today is the exam," Leila said while having breakfast."Um, I knew.""Aren't you going?""I didn't go."Lorraine thought for a moment and decided that she didn't want to work at the hospital either, so it didn't really matter if she had a diploma or not.There have been many recent events, and she indeed didn't have the mindset to study for the exam.And it didn't make any sense to take the exam either.If one were to demonstrate their abilitie

    "Haha, you little girl. Alright, then stay, but I, Rhett, won't take advantage of anyone. You can work for a day, and if it doesn't work out, then get lost. But I won't deduct your wages.""You college students are all part-time, can only work for a little over a month, right?"Lorraine nodded."One hundred dollars a day, lunch provided, but you need to prepare it yourself, no accommodation included.""Is there a problem?""No problem," Lorraine nodded."Then come to work at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning. My house opens at 7 o'clock and stays open until 5 o'clock in the afternoon. There is no lunch break, so if you're afraid of getting tired, it's better to back out early.""Not afraid.""Your job was to assist me, I would write the prescription and you were responsible for dispensing the medication.""Sure, no problem.""Which school?" the old man couldn't help but ask."Amber Medical University.""Whi

    The moment Jaden saw the person coming in, disappointment filled his eyes.It was Haylie, she was carrying an exquisite food box."Jaden, are you feeling better?""Did your head hurt?""Why did you come so late?" Jaden remained polite."Well, my mom knew that you were hospitalized and she was very worried. She said you needed nutrition, so she made a few light and nutritious dishes overnight. I just went to ask the attending doctor specifically, and they said it's okay to eat."As she spoke, Haylie opened the food box, inside of which were four delicately stir-fried dishes.With a perfect combination of color, fragrance, and taste, Haylie's mother was also Jaden's teacher's wife.I have eaten many meals at the Shelley family's place, and I must say that the wife's cooking skills are excellent. However, he really didn't have much of an appetite."Thank Teacher's wife for me.""What are you thanking for? We are all

    "Okay, Mom, you asked."Dawson took off his coat, casually threw it aside, and then sat across from his mother.Lidya took out her phone and pulled up a short video.Then she placed the phone on the coffee table and said, "Take a look, what's going on with this?""Ah?" Dawson never expected that someone had actually recorded it."Where did you get this video from?""Whoever is not afraid of death and dares to secretly take pictures of me, I will kill them," Dawson's domineering spirit emerged."Was this important? The point is, what is this all about? The way you dressed outside is quite mysterious. If it wasn't for the quick handling by the group, it's likely that this would have made the news by now. You, oh you.""You have really been spoiled.""Mom, this was not my fault.""It was a woman who tried to seduce me, followed me, behaved inappropriately towards me, and got beaten up by me.""What?

    Lorraine: Mom, no, I'll explain it to you when I have time. I have to hang up now.Beep beep beep...The phone hung up.Seeing more and more patients at the clinic, Lorraine could only say a few words and hung up the phone.And Lidya was about to be furious.Fortunately, Dawson came back."Mom, how did you come here?""Your wife went to live outside, and you didn't take care of her?""Ah, I'll deal with this later," Dawson said, unwilling to say more.Lidya angrily recounted the incident of just having called Lorraine and being hung up on."Oh, did she actually answer your call?""What does it mean?" Lidya was a bit confused."She never answered my calls, but answering your call really gives you face."Lidya: ..."Was this acceptable?""You said she was a girl with no background or family background, but we, the Mercer family, did not mind.""The Gregory family had an inci

    The incident of the Hart family dinner was directly concealed internally and did not spread, as it was related to Keely.Dawson and Lorraine did not say anything after they came back.Lidya naturally didn't know, but Elizabeth, being Keith's sister, naturally knew."Oh? Such a big thing, such an exciting thing, Auntie doesn't know?" Elizabeth pretended to be surprised."What is this Bacchus, what's the matter?"Elizabeth then softly recounted the incident of Lorraine drinking with someone, of course, she did not mention that the other person was Keely, nor did she mention that Keely intentionally made things difficult for Lorraine.The whole thing sounded as if Lorraine herself didn't know the depth of it, deliberately causing a scene in public to attract attention.Lidya's hands trembled with anger, "Can this be true?""Many people were present at the event, and Auntie, you also have connections, so if you inquire, you will kn

    In the exquisite box, there was a stunning emerald ring.This kind of green, only seen on TV, is a quality that even jewelry stores do not have.The value could no longer be measured, and it was no longer a matter of being able to buy it with money.Lorraine took a deep breath, this thing was too valuable.Cannot accept, absolutely cannot accept.She carefully locked it in the medicine box at the Dorset Clinic, intending to find an opportunity to return it.Even though Heartleaf is priceless, it would not accept such a valuable gift.In fact, this was a relic of Jaden's late mother.Specifically, it was Jaden's grandmother's dowry, which had truly been passed down from generation to generation by the elderly.At this moment, the Ellerker's mansion.Jaden touched the photo in his mother's room, the woman in it smiled sweetly and elegantly.Jaden deeply felt reluctant and silently watched for a long time.

    "Well, we were in the same high school, but I was two grades below him. When he was in his senior year, I was only a freshman, but I would often see him on the basketball court."Upon hearing Elizabeth's words, Lidya suddenly had an idea and took out her phone. She sent a message to Dawson, saying, "I'll send you my location. Come and have dinner with me, and don't refuse."Dawson was suddenly caught off guard when the phone rang directly.Because he had everything planned, he was going to pick up Lorraine in Vermont Heights in the evening.Lidya: Hello?Dawson: Mom? What are we having for dinner? Why is it so sudden?Lidya: What, Lorraine? Why do you constantly bring up that woman? Can't you live without a woman?Dawson: ???Dawson was shocked.Dawson: What's wrong with you? What is this? When did I mention Raine?

    Layton's appearance was extremely inappropriate, missing the opportunity for Lorraine to catch up with Jaden and return the gift box.She watched as his car drove away, still holding the box in her hand."Lorraine, would you go out with me?""I would make you the happiest girlfriend in the world," Layton's sudden confession left Lorraine feeling uninterested.Lorraine was too lazy to look at him any longer, so she turned around and walked away.Layton, however, persisted, "Lorraine, wait a moment, don't you think we had a special connection?""What do you mean by fate?" Lorraine turned around."I was interested in you at school.""But soon it was winter vacation.""I thought I would not be able to see it until at least next year.""But little did I expect to see you at the Dorset Clinic, this is the opportunity that God has bestowed upon me.""Was your chance just to pester others?"Layton was slight

    Dawson almost immediately turned his head and shouted, "Andrew... come in."Andrew pushed the door open and saw Lily taking off her clothes, and he was also dumbfounded."Mr. Mercer.""Drag Lily out, quickly, she went crazy.""Okay."Andrew forced himself to pull Lily's arm with great effort and walk out."Dawson, why didn't you look at me?""Don't you know that I liked you?"Lily was almost hysterical, she had played all her cards, and perhaps the biggest failure for a woman is to stand naked in front of a man, who not only remains indifferent but even shows some disgust.Lily felt that at this moment, she had lost all her self-esteem and dignity.She was clearly a youthful and beautiful executive assistant to the CEO.Was it the charming and captivating Ms. Finch?But why didn't Mr. Mercer take a few more glances at her?Andrew not only took Lily out, but also, in order to save face for her,

    Dawson had no idea about what Lily had said to Lidya in private before.Lidya was really concerned about this matter, especially when she heard that the person on the other side was also a well-respected scion. She developed hostility towards Lorraine and became cautious."Don't treat Dawson's wife like that.""My mom hasn't given you a hard time all these years, why are you giving the daughter-in-law a hard time?" Frank advised."Shut up, you were all being deceived by that woman, she was just pretending."Her heart was never really with Dawson, waiting to have a child with him.Lidya couldn't take in a word and, picking up her bag, she left home and didn't return even for a night.The Dorset Clinic.Jaden walked in, holding the gift, and saw Lorraine give a slight smile.He was about to say hello when Lorraine's phone rang."Sorry, I received a phone call."Lorraine walked over to the adjacent lounge, hol

    "Jaden, are you really telling the truth?" Haylie clearly still didn't believe."You could go back and ask the teacher.""Originally, I didn't want to say it so bluntly.""But since you asked today, I will tell you the truth.""Haylie, you were also grown up, not a child anymore.""Including the medication you previously provided to me, which was not developed by you at all, I feel that you should not do this. It is also unfair to your classmates."Even this was exposed, Haylie felt completely ashamed.Crying, he turned his head and ran away.Jaden didn't feel too upset in his heart, marrying Haylie was simply impossible.Jaden had high expectations for love and marriage, and he would rather remain single than settle for less.Even if I remained single forever, I would still refuse to settle for marrying someone I don't like.The figure suddenly flashed in my mind again."Put the things in the trunk

    "Vermont Heights.""This name... sounds a bit strange." Lorraine frowned."Sure, we had it divined by a fortune teller, but this property is not developed by our family. It belongs to the family of my grandfather's good friend, Mr. Qin. It is considered the most expensive property in Amber City, even more expensive than villas.""Why?" Lorraine asked."First, the location was good, situated in a bustling area.""Secondly, the quality is good. The designer we found has won awards abroad and it is said that the design can withstand an earthquake of up to magnitude eight."Third, the interior decoration was all in traditional style, and only pure solid wood furniture was used."The household appliances were also fully equipped, all of which were imported brands, and many of them were even custom-made."Fourth, after being divined by a fortune teller, the people living here would be very lucky.Fifth, it had good privacy, wi

    "Dawson.""Hmm?""I kindly remind you that you haven't fallen asleep yet, so don't start dreaming so soon," Lorraine said seriously.It did amuse Dawson directly.To be honest, why didn't you let me show off just now?"Don't you know the ability of your husband?""We, the Mercer family, do not raise useless people. Even though I, Baron, have grown older, I am still very skilled in close combat."Lorraine nodded, "Indeed, otherwise could she have beaten up Annabelle like that?"Dawson: ..."Why are you bringing up the pot that I don't want to talk about?""It was you who brought it up first.""What I meant was, let me teach those bastards and scumbags, but you've already handled them all, what am I supposed to do?"Dawson always had a sense of melancholy, as if he had a wealth of talent but nowhere to showcase it.Just now, everyone was already eager and ready to go, planning to use those few p
