Not mentioning it would be better, but as soon as Lorraine and Dawson were mentioned, Caleb's expression became even more unpleasant.

He drank down most of the glass of red wine in one gulp, holding his breath. "Dawson recently terminated all of our projects at the Gregory Group."

"What?" Sienna was also shocked.

Before their marriage, the Mercer family and the Gregory family also had some sporadic small collaborations.

These are what were left between John's generation and Frank's father.

Now that Lorraine has gotten married and moved away, shouldn't we take even better care of her?

Why did it suddenly stop all of a sudden?

What is Dawson going crazy about?

"I understood, it must have been Lorraine, that bitch, who badmouthed me. Otherwise, Dawson wouldn't have done this. He's the CEO of a big corporation, would he care about such a small matter?"

Sienna was a thorn in Lorraine's side, so she placed all the blame on Lorraine.

Caleb didn't say anything either, but every time he though

    "Oh," Lorraine responded flatly."Don't you want to tell me something?" Dawson knew that Sienna and Lorraine didn't have a good relationship, so he deliberately brought this up."Remember to bring a small umbrella."Dawson heard this sentence and his mind buzzed for a moment. He never expected it at all.Lorraine actually used such a professional term, a small umbrella?And, is it now the time for her to say this?"Lorraine, you know quite a lot." Dawson leaned closer to Lorraine's face, and the two of them were almost about to touch.The kind where they could hear each other's breathing.Lorraine couldn't stand the distance anymore, so she skillfully slipped out from under his arm and stood barefoot by the bed."I just advised kindly, whether you listen or not is up to you.""Sienna had an exciting personal life with many boyfriends. It would be beneficial for you to take some protective measures. I am only speaking good things."When Lorraine said these words, her tone and expressio

    "Why argue with her? Is she worthy?""We haven't even had a fight yet, you need to change your bad temper. We're already married, after all.""Grandma, don't be deceived by her appearance. She was not an easy person to deal with. The reason she tries to please you is also because she can see your position and influence in our family. Otherwise, do you think she would treat you nicely?""Are you saying there was no argument?" Agnes looked at her grandson's expression and found it amusing."Never mind, I still had to go to work.""Stinky brat, that Raine going to school thing...""I disagreed, let her stay at home," Dawson said grumpily.However, he got into the back seat of the Rolls-Royce and still carefully pondered his grandmother's words.Coincidentally, at that moment, Lance Hereford also happened to send a message on Line.That day, because of Helena's matter, Lance originally intended to directly approach Lorraine, but Dawson also intercepted him.Lance: Mr. Mercer, can we talk

    Dawson gently placed the wine glass in his hand down.The crowd held their breath, all waiting for Dawson's answer.Keely's thoughts were quite obvious, she wanted to seduce a wealthy man, and everyone around could see it clearly.Natasha intentionally wrapped her arms around Ryan's waist and coquettishly said, "Ryan, guess whether Mr. Mercer would be interested in Keely?"Ryan just smiled and said nothing."I have never had any recognition for appearances, I feel like they are all the same," Dawson said lightly.Keely was slightly startled, never expecting such an answer.She was not satisfied. Keely's beauty was obvious to all, and even the number of her Weibo followers was attracted by her beauty alone. Her PR team also occasionally issued announcements to praise her.Now, in front of Dawson, not a single splash was stirred, but there was a hint of unwillingness.Ryan laughed and jokingly said, "I wonder if Dawson had a beautiful wife.""Was Mrs. Mercer pretty?" Natasha asked curio

    Agnes hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, "This is what I think. I will press the invitation, and we should prepare four sets of gifts. I won't take care of yours and your parents', but I will take care of your aunt's and uncle's. Also, don't tell them about it. As for the Gregory family, they want to receive two sets of gifts, so our Mercer family can also afford to give two sets of gifts.""Wasn't it a benefit to their family?" Dawson naturally felt dissatisfied.No one was short of money, but the Gregory family clearly took advantage.And he completely disregarded Lorraine's situation in the Mercer family and engaged in such disgusting behavior to take advantage."We only looked at Raine, for no other reason."Agnes had the temperament, but Dawson didn't say anything.However, ever since Lorraine gave Agnes the medicine, her cough has indeed improved.The visible spirit of a person, tonight also acted up due to the old cold leg problem. Lorraine used massage techniques to

    "There was."Lorraine hesitated for a moment but decided to speak."What thing?" Dawson was actually very curious, ever since he found out that Lorraine had possibly infiltrated the Gregory family for four years to find something, he became even more interested."My grandfather once gave the Gregory family a hundred-year-old wild ginseng.""A ginseng grew for a hundred years, still in the wild, do you know what that means? Its value is immeasurable.""But I felt that the Gregory family did not need it, nor did they deserve it.""They looked down on my grandfather and me, both in their words and actions. Even the best ginseng couldn't make a difference in their hands. If you really want to help me buy it, then this is the one."Lorraine selectively spoke and did not disclose everything.In the end, she was still very cautious.Especially when it came to Dawson.What she wanted most was not the best ginseng, but the best ginseng is certainly valuable and it would be best to bring it bac

    "No, I wanted to live a long life.""Don't talk about seeking death," Dawson warned with a cold face.Lorraine turned her head and looked silently at the night scenery outside the car window.In the end, the black Maybach parked in front of the steak restaurant.He actually listened to her and ate very light.Lorraine had no appetite and just ate a little.Dawson had a good appetite and ate a lot.When the two of them returned home, it was already early morning.Before going to bed, Dawson took out a debit card and said, "Take this, go buy clothes and jewelry tomorrow. Tomorrow night is the Gregory family's birthday banquet, and we still have to go.""Do we still need to prepare a birthday gift for the Gregory family?" Lorraine asked, not mincing her words, as she took the parcel.Because the last time I went shopping for clothes with Ms. Finch, I used my secondary card and she later gave it to Dawson.After getting married and moving here, we did become much wealthier.For example, l

    Sienna should have worn red coral, as it would have been a better match. She was wearing a black evening gown, and red and black make for a sophisticated combination.But suddenly, the peach-colored cheongsam paired with a bright red coral, this gradient color adds an even more sophisticated touch.Especially her cheongsam today, it was filled with elegance.Agnes had a discerning eye.In addition, Lorraine herself looked very classical and had an indescribable gentleness in her bones.This combination was really amazing.Sienna was unwilling to admit that someone was more outstanding than herself, especially when that person was Lorraine.So, as soon as he opened his mouth, it was full of malice.Dawson, on the other hand, was always one to enjoy watching the commotion.He was not in a hurry to speak, he just wanted to see how Lorraine would respond and how she would save herself."High imitation? Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?""I could be mistaken, we both have the same one,

    "Do you think Lorraine could influence my decisions?" Dawson looked at Caleb with a dumbfounded expression.Caleb immediately dismissed this conjecture, thinking it over.Dawson, with his high aspirations and an arrogant attitude, was the prince of the Mercer family, who looked down upon the world.Would you believe a lonely girl like Lorraine after just a few days of marriage?"Since it wasn't you, let Lorraine tell me, you are not qualified enough."Just being humiliated by Dawson, Caleb immediately looked for an opportunity to strike back."I didn't take it for free, I bought it. How much do you want for it?"Caleb's heart shook...Spending money to buy... This is a good idea."Are you willing to pay any amount of money?""Of course not, I am not a fool. As long as the price is reasonable.""I was curious, why did you bring these things, they weren't really any rare treasures to begin with?" Caleb looked at Dawson."Lorraine is now my wife, and the dowry given by her grandfather is

    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
