Lorraine calmly glanced at Dawson and said, "Tell me, what do you want?"
"I didn't want anything, I just wanted you to fulfill your promise."
"You promised me before that you would owe me a favor and agree to do something for me, as long as it doesn't violate moral principles or involve illegal activities, you would fulfill it."
"I did say that."
Beneath Lorraine's calm exterior, she was actually quite nervous.
The calmness at this moment was only an illusion.
Because she was particularly sensitive, she was afraid that Dawson would propose to her and solidify their marital relationship.
After all, they were a legally married couple, which did not violate any moral boundaries, let alone any laws.
But she indeed did not do well in sharing a bed with Dawson and having physical intimacy.
Words that have been said cannot be taken back.
"Are your previous words still valid?"

"Mr. Shelley, I'm sorry.""I might not have much time in the evening.""We made an appointment," Lorraine added.Derick was a smart man, so when he heard Lorraine's refusal, he didn't make a fuss either."It's okay, then you go ahead and busy yourself."Derick hung up the phone and let out a sigh.Actually, making this phone call was my own idea, not Jaden's.Because there was something very important, Derick knew very clearly that Lorraine was the wife of the Mercer family.Since they were a married couple, it was certain that they couldn't intentionally play matchmaker for someone else, as it went against Derick's character.He just wanted to help when he saw the students in difficulty.The Ellerker Medicine Group was developing a new product, and although he did not participate, he knew that it was very challenging.Now the base is on fire, and the formula has been destroyed.There needed to be th

"Mrs. Mercer, you can't just say that, especially without any evidence," Anna's face slightly changed.Lidya also ignored Anna and continued to watch Agnes."Mom, I'll be honest, I felt like that girl never had any feelings for Dawson.""If I cared, it wouldn't be like this.""How does it matter, and how does it not matter? Don't forget, when she got married to Dawson, his eyes couldn't see anything. Why didn't you despise her back then?" Agnes' words were in favor of Lorraine.Lidya was extremely aggrieved, "Mom, even if Dawson is blind, our Mercer family is still a top aristocratic family. How can she still feel wronged?""It's not really a grievance, we are not the parties involved, you simply have no idea what happened.""What happened that would make you run away from home?""Our elders couldn't control them for their whole lives.""Emotions were built gradually, and days were spent slowly.""Dawson was not a

Dawson had been feeling bored for a long time, even just talking, he wanted to amuse her.But I must say, I really didn't expect it to be this intense this time.Lorraine took a few steps forward and planted a kiss on Dawson's thin lips.Dawson instantly petrified and couldn't move.Confused, dumbfounded, unable to do it.Lorraine, on the contrary, looked at him calmly and asked, "Is this okay?"Lorraine thought that when it came to kissing, he was being too picky.Why not just do it all at once?To be honest, she wasn't very clear about what exactly was left of her grandfather's belongings.The Gregory family gave an unknown amount, all of which is unknown.But she did want this thing.I thought there would be a conflict recently, and this thing would not be obtained for a while.Who knew Dawson would be delivered like this, directly placed in the trunk of the car, can you believe it?Lorrain

"Never in a million years did I expect to see these in my lifetime.""Grandpa used to have so many things, but you were so silly, how could you give them to the Gregory family?""Did they match?""Fortunately, the Gregory family didn't know the value."Lorraine now thinks back and wonders if her grandfather intentionally set up the situation.Knowing that the Gregory family was not knowledgeable about the value, the item eventually ended up back in the hands of their granddaughter.Don't say that the Gregory family didn't study medicine, even if they did, they wouldn't be able to recognize this thing.Apart from the bronze wine cup, everything else just looked like ordinary weeds.The miracle drug has long since dried up and become a specimen, but Lorraine doesn't think it will affect its effectiveness.She carefully put it away and then got into bed to prepare for sleep.Dawson: Did you sleep?Lorraine: Is

"It was too late, the Ellerker Medicine Group press conference was about to start.""You just did as I said.""It would be a disaster." The male classmate was extremely worried.Something happened, I will take responsibility for it. I still have my dad, what are you afraid of?"But...""Noel, I would give you two hundred thousand."The boy looked at Haylie in astonishment. The Shelley family was indeed wealthy, as Haylie, a college student, could easily come up with two hundred thousand."I knew your family needed money." Haylie knew what she was doing was despicable. Noel was a student from a poor background, but he had always excelled academically and received scholarships. Recently, she also heard that his sister needed a kidney transplant and they needed a sum of money. So, she approached him, offering money to win him over."Haylie, you..."Although Noel needed money, he still didn't want to do anything against his

"Look for her? Don't be ridiculous, Mom. Can't you see clearly yet?""That woman only caused trouble for us, she didn't help us.""Relying on her is not as good as relying on oneself.""Maybe something happened at our house, and she was the first one to enjoy the spectacle. Well, forget it, I'd better go find Dawson."Sienna couldn't do anything in the end because the land didn't sell, and the Gregory family's mansion was going to be seized. They didn't even have a place to live.In order to evade debt collectors, the older brother pretended to be insane and acted foolishly while staying in a sanatorium.The Reed family was of no help at all, and she hadn't seen Peter for many days.Sienna gritted her teeth and still came to Glory Group.But she was clever and directly handed Lily a bag.Around forty to fifty thousand Chanel, it was not expensive.But it was enough to make Lily happy, after all, she was not used t

Lorraine: I will see then.Dawson: What does this mean? I give you a chance and you don't appreciate it? Are you pretending with me?Dawson: You had to come with me, you were my wife, you know, right?Unfortunately, Lorraine did not reply anymore. She remained silent, having obtained the precious medicinal herbs left by her grandfather.That evening, Dawson met with Sienna and John.The contract for that piece of land was signed, and the price was really low.Sienna no longer wanted to argue with Dawson, after all, he was wealthy and influential.She only hoped to win the divorce case against the Reed family through Dawson's lawyer.The Mercer family, dinner time.Baron's family, due to a very unpleasant argument, Annabelle had not appeared at the Mercer's mansion for several days.Baron, as usual, came by to mainly check on his daughter.Helena's family was quite active.

"It has already been progressing." Helena smiled confidently."Will there be no mishaps?""This time, I changed my approach. Even if there are mistakes, it doesn't matter. Just wait and see."In fact, Helena was inspired by Baron's family.After Baron went green, she thought that if Dawson also went green, it would be absolutely amazing.Based on Dawson's temper, if he had found out that his wife had a lover outside, it is likely that there would have been casualties.By then, she would have the opportunity to make a big fuss.The news of Sienna and Dawson having dinner was reported, but it wasn't a big deal to begin with.But Sienna showed off and directly forwarded the news to Lorraine using her father's phone.He deliberately annoyed her.Supplementing with one more sentence:"I thought Dawson would come to have dinner with me tonight, and bring you along.""It seems I overestimated you, haha," Si

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? I said you asked me to have dinner, so sudden.Lidya: Mom called her son to have dinner, what's so s

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
