Chapter 173

Lorraine: Where did you park your car? Shall I go and get it?

Lily: Okay.

Afterwards, Lily sent an address via text message, and Lorraine walked a few minutes to get there.

"Here." Lily responded with an indifferent attitude.

"Thank you."

"No need, I also received Mr. Mercer's salary."

Lorraine remained silent, but Lily suddenly spoke up, "Are you close with Sienna?"

Lorraine looked up at her, puzzled.

Lily smiled and said, "Sienna has been going to the company to see Mr. Mercer lately. They even had dinner together last night. I feel like Mr. Mercer treats her well, probably because of her connection with you. But Sienna herself is really beautiful, deserving of being the number one beauty in Amber City."

Lily was also a scheming person. When Sienna praised her, she also flattered Sienna.

And deliberately said it in front of Lorraine, just to provoke her.

"Yeah, I also thought she was very beautiful," Lorraine, on the other hand, showed no emotional fluctuations.

"The lady came to the company that day."

"The Madam seems to have a favorable opinion of you. In theory, as a secretary, I am not qualified to say these things. However, I can see that you are a person with self-respect, so I will offer some advice... If it is not suitable, it is better to withdraw early and not let it reach a point of no return, where you lose all your dignity, right?"

Lorraine also smiled, "Ms. Finch, are you concerned about me?"

Lily's face turned a few shades paler when asked in one sentence.

"I was just giving a friendly reminder."

"Then I thank you for your reminder," Lorraine said.

Lily was annoyed, so she deliberately said, "Actually, I really think Sienna is more suitable to be Mrs. Mercer than you, even though she has been divorced."

The implicit meaning is that everyone who is divorced is stronger than you, Lorraine.

Lorraine, unwilling to back down, immediately retorted, "That's right, anyway, Dawson wouldn't marry a secretary no matter who he marries."

"You..." Lily was about to get angry immediately.

But considering that she is still Mrs. Mercer at the moment, she can only endure it for now.

"You were so arrogant, you will have a hard time in the future."

After saying that, Lily turned her head and left.

Lorraine didn't pay much attention to the dress and went back to continue her work.

When the time came, she was ready to change her clothes, only to realize that there was a problem with the dress.

First, the style of the dress was chosen by Dawson, pure white in color.

Not revealing, it aligns with Lorraine's aesthetic and low-key nature.

But the problem was that this size was two sizes too big.

Lorraine was slim and wore small-sized clothes.

But the thing that Lily brought was in a large size.

So as soon as I put it on, it looked loose and baggy.

Just then, Dawson called.

"Did you get on the car?"

Lorraine felt that it was probably too late to change her dress at this time.

"Not yet, soon."

"Hurry up, it's about to start."

"Okay."

In the end, Lorraine had no choice but to make a quick improvement.

The position of the lower back was directly cut open, and then the cut strip of cloth was made into a belt and tied into a bow at the lower back.

In this way, the skirt became much tighter.

The style gave people a bright feeling in front of their eyes.

The shoes were fine, just a pair of delicate light-colored high heels.

Lorraine felt that Lily must have done it on purpose.

But she didn't go to tell Dawson either, after all, the problem had already been solved on her own.

Instead of blaming this and that, it is faster to take matters into our own hands.

Soon, Lorraine took a taxi to the entrance of the banquet hotel.

Met up with Dawson.

Dawson was slightly surprised when he saw her.

"Is this the one I chose for you?"

"Why does the style look a bit different?"

Lorraine also remained silent.

At this time, luxury cars kept coming from behind.

Faintly, someone could be heard saying, "Look, is that the car of the Ellerker Medicine Group's Mr. Ellerker?"

"Did Mr. Ellerker and Ms. Ellerker come?"

"I heard that Ms. Ellerker was also very beautiful."

As soon as Dawson heard the Ellerker family, he immediately grabbed Lorraine's hand and went inside.

"Tonight was the Hart family's party."

"It wasn't a big occasion."

"But the ones who came were all important figures."

"You just follow me, no need to socialize, anyway no one knows you."

"If you were tired, just find a place to take a rest."

Dawson explained as he walked.

"Okay."

"Mr. Mercer."

"Good evening, Mr. Mercer."

"Mr. Mercer, you came too?"

As soon as Dawson entered the door, he started socializing and was almost surrounded.

"The person next to you is..."

Everyone was not surprised that Dawson could come, but they were surprised that it was the first time he brought a female companion.

The last dinner of the Gregory family doesn't count, the Gregory family can't be considered as truly respectable, and they don't have the same status as they do today.

The people who came today were all truly influential big shots.

"My wife, Lorraine."

My wife, on the other hand, shocked everyone.

Everyone vaguely knew that Dawson had secretly gotten married, but as for what his new wife was like, in fact, not many people had seen her.

At the Gregory family dinner, Lorraine didn't stand out, unlike Sienna who was so outgoing.

So this was the first time she was being noticed by these people.

"It turned out to be Mrs. Mercer."

"Youthful."

"You were so beautiful, even without makeup."

Some young ladies of high social status began to praise.

Dawson deliberately lowered his voice in Lorraine's ear and said, "You don't have to take what they said seriously, it's all just business bragging. They say the same thing about everyone they see."

"I knew," Lorraine said calmly.

"Dawson, oh my, Lorraine."

Ryan also came, and surprisingly, he didn't bring Natasha with him.

She was a girl that Lorraine had never spoken to before, but the girl had a very good temperament and was also tall in height.

Lorraine nodded slightly, indicating politeness.

"By the way, Dawson, while there weren't many people around, let's go and meet Mr. Hart and say hello to him, shall we?"

"Sure."

Then the two of them left, leaving behind the female companion.

Ryan's companion must have been a socialite, as she turned around and immediately started chatting with someone else.

Lorraine quietly found a corner for herself and picked up a cocktail.

Not far away, there was a gaze, silently staring at her.

But she obviously didn't know, after all, there were too many people at the scene.

"Hey, what were you looking at, bro?"

"No problem," Jaden immediately averted his gaze.

He didn't expect to see Lorraine tonight, mainly because he didn't know that Dawson would bring her.

Just dressed so simply, a knee-length white dress.

There was no jewelry or makeup adorning her from head to toe, yet she still captivated his attention.

"Lorraine."

A woman's voice sounded, and Lorraine turned around.

I was surprised to discover that it was Eliza.

I didn't expect that she could come.

After breaking up with Caleb, Eliza, being a model after all, quickly got involved with other wealthy businessmen.

She didn't expect to see Lorraine either, but Sienna didn't come tonight.

"Did you go to the sanatorium to see Caleb?"

"No." Lorraine spoke the truth.

"Lorraine, are you a bit heartless? The Gregory family has been kind to you, at least they took you in for several years. When the Gregory family had trouble, it's one thing if you didn't help, but can't you even go and see Caleb? It's a shame that he has always had you in his heart."
