Chapter 170

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. Helena deliberately asked, "Hey? Why don't we see Dawson's wife?"

"I haven't seen him for several days."

"Yeah, haven't seen him for several days." Helena's son-in-law also agreed.

"Ah, Raine found a part-time job and went out to stay for a few days."

This was said by Agnes, and she said it casually.

"Ah? Mom, am I not mistaken?"

"Did you go out to look for a job?"

"What a joke, can't we afford it, the Mercer family?"

"It has nothing to do with whether the Mercer family can afford it or not, that child also has a strong personality and is not willing to be lazy and eat well at home every day. This is a good thing," Agnes said.

"But even if you were to go to work, you should go to the company."

"Glory Group, such a big corporation, couldn't accommodate her?"

"Mom, did she really go out to work, or is there something else?" Helena clearly had ill intentions.

"Don't start with conspiracy theories, let's eat."

"Mom, this is not a conspiracy theory, I'm telling you, the society now is not like the one you and dad experienced back then. Your love was so pure back then, but now...haha, nowadays, young girls are so cunning, who knows if they have met someone outside. Let's not talk about others, let's talk about my younger brother. Who would have thought that such an honest person like him would also have a secret affair and even spent five million on someone?"

When Helena got angry, she would step on anyone.

This sentence made Baron very unhappy.

Jenna was still eating at the table, and she was not young anymore. Nowadays, children are all precocious.

Helena understood everything and at that moment, she frowned. "Helena, what nonsense are you talking about? Is it interesting to say these things in front of the child?"

"Ah, I didn't mean to, I was just making a metaphor."

"Dad, what does Helena mean?" Jenna seemed to understand but not quite.

"No problem, let's eat."

Baron was holding his breath, and recently his relationship with his wife reached an all-time low.

Annabelle also moved out and stopped going to work. Although neither of them mentioned divorce, the situation was not good.

Baron, a big man, would get extremely angry whenever he thought about being deceived.

Even considered taking Jenna for a paternity test.

"Sister-in-law, mom is getting old and confused."

"Some things were unclear, but you were still young, don't be confused."

"The incident involving San Di has sounded an alarm for our family, the Mercer family."

"The men in our family, had money if they wanted, had good looks if they wanted."

"I can't let those people outside steal it from me."

"I saw that girl Lorraine, although she seemed honest, but many people appear honest on the surface, but are actually reserved. It's better to be cautious. At least when living at home, they can't cause any trouble."

"But if we were to move out and live elsewhere, would that be appropriate?"

"It's a bit funny, isn't it, that the newlywed couple separated right after getting married?"

"I knew it in my heart," Lidya was indeed unhappy, but being unhappy wouldn't make her speak up for Helena, after all, they were Frank's family's archenemies."

At that moment, Helena took out her phone and immediately exclaimed in surprise.

"Oh hey, Dawson went out for dinner with Sienna tonight."

"It seems like they really had some issues, the young couple."

"Why else would Dawson go to have dinner with Sienna?"

According to the rules, Lorraine, even though she was the foster daughter of the Gregory family, Sienna would still be considered a great aunt, right? This is too ambiguous, isn't it?

"And previously, Dawson was going to marry Sienna, right?"

"Helena, you're just spewing blood from your mouth, aren't you?" Lidya said coldly.

"I sprayed someone, just like what was shown on the news. You can see it for yourselves."

Helena took out her phone and indeed there was a small photo taken by a reporter.

In a restaurant with floor-to-ceiling windows, Sienna and Dawson sat facing each other.

Actually, John was also there, but he had just gone to the restroom at that time.

The journalist captured this, I don't know if it was intentional or not, and the title is ambiguous enough - the Mercer family's young CEO had a secret meeting with the wealthy Mrs. Reed.

"It's about work, Dawson said that he's been considering acquiring the Gregory family's land recently." Frank, being quick to react, immediately brought up work.

Helena smiled subtly and said, "The young people nowadays, each playing their own games, indeed spend a lot of money. We, the older generation, have to worry along with them."

"Eating is just a matter of how to eat, don't talk about all those irrelevant things," Agnes didn't want to listen to Helena talking.

Even though she is my own daughter, over the years her personality has always been such that wherever she is, there is bound to be trouble.

Agnes had a headache from the argument, and the dinner was not enjoyable.

After dinner, Helena and Baron left one after another by car.

"Baron, how did you and your wife finally resolve it?"

"We were still in the Cold War," Baron said with a serious expression.

"Would you get divorced?"

"It hadn't been mentioned yet," Baron was actually conflicted.

Let's get divorced, actually, I'm reluctant in my heart, after all, he really liked Annabelle.

Even after being married for many years, they would still cuddle intimately while sleeping at night.

Getting divorced all of a sudden, I really wasn't used to it.

But let's not get divorced, every time I see that delicate face, I think about her sleeping with other men.

Out of nowhere, I felt nauseous and really didn't want to touch her.

For the sake of the children, we made do as best we could.

But can it really be managed?

He hadn't thought it through, he wasn't like those playboys outside, who only knew how to live a life of debauchery.

In the end, Baron may not have been a good person, but he was definitely a romantic.

"If you need any help, just come to me anytime. We will always be a team."

Helena patted Baron's shoulder.

Baron also just nodded heavily with a heavy heart.

"On Dawson's side, leave it to me. You haven't been in the right mindset lately, so I'll take care of it."

"Got it."

And so, the two families left one after the other.

On the way back, Victor sat in the back holding his chubby son, Joseph, who was fast asleep and snoring loudly.

Victor actually did not like his son, always feeling that he had some intellectual issues.

But they also didn't dare to show their dislike, after all, they were very afraid of Helena.

He actually wanted to have another child with Helena, but Helena has been obsessed with family infighting in recent years.

I had no intention of having children, and I was not willing to have children.

After all, after ten months of pregnancy, she is about to leave the company and will miss out on a lot of things. She is afraid of being kicked out of the board by Dawson.

"How are you planning to approach Dawson's side?" Victor asked Helena.
