His Substitute Bride: Love at First Cure

Lorraine Turner stared at the big red wedding characters in her new home, feeling like she was in a dream.Just like that, she had just married the heir of the powerful Mercer family in Amber City, Dawson Mercer.Just a month ago, Sienna Gregory had been bragging to her about becoming Amber City's top socialite, making every woman in the city jealous to tears.But life was unpredictable. A week ago, Dawson was in a car accident and lost his sight.The Gregory family did not want to offend the Mercer family, so the wedding went on as planned.Only the bride was switched to the Gregory family's secretly adopted orphan of four years, who was Lorraine.The sound of the door opening made her tense up instantly. She looked toward the entrance as the man walked in.For a moment, she held her breath...Dawson had already changed out of the heavy wedding suit and was now wearing a simple white shirt and black trousers.His appearance had always been a mystery in Amber City. Some said he looked

To be fair, Lorraine indeed wasn't as beautiful as Sienna. Lidya had said that before.Anyway, wasn't it a bit too much to say that out loud in front of the bride herself?Lidya turned awkward. "No, no! Raine is also very pretty, and they're both beautiful.""Enough! It's early morning. You elders should have some shame! The younger generation is here to help. Just hand over the gifts and stop with the nonsense!" It was Agnes who finally put a stop to it.She only doted on her grandson. As long as her grandson was happy, she didn't care whom he married.Agnes looked Lorraine up and down with a smile. "Raine is a good child. Her face is round and cute. I like her.""Here, take this. It's from me." Agnes handed over the wedding gift.Lorraine instinctively glanced at Dawson. He remained expressionless, neither encouraging nor stopping her. So, she smoothly accepted it. "Thank you, Grandma."With Agnes backing her, no one dared to continue making trouble. One by one, Dawson's parents, un

Lorraine faintly smiled. "Everyone has always been very kind to me. Otherwise, they wouldn't have given me such a great opportunity to marry Mr. Mercer. I am truly grateful."Lorraine's response was perfect, yet it was also a slap in the Gregory family's face.After all, everyone knew that the only reason Lorraine was marrying Dawson was that Sienna had outright refused.When Sienna first heard about Dawson's accident and blindness, she threw a fit, even running off to seduce Peter, the son of a real estate tycoon. She had a one-night stand with him and even had someone secretly photograph it and release the news. It all happened as fast as a blink of an eye.Since Sienna despised Dawson, Lorraine had become the next choice.But on the surface, they still had to maintain the peace, and they couldn't quite figure out whether Lorraine's words were sincere or sarcastic.Dawson smiled, "I should thank you all as well. If it weren't for Raine coming into my life, my eyesight wouldn't have

"Whatever," Lorraine suddenly said."Funny, huh?" The man frowned slightly, clearly displeased."Not a joke. That's just what I think. "Lorraine replied."And what exactly are you thinking?" Dawson ask again."Deal with whatever comes my way." The girl remained calm and composed.Dawson was losing patience. "Lorraine, I swear, you're something else. Just answer my questions properly. Stop dodging." His grip tightened on her arm, his tone growing harsher."If you had half a brain, Mr. Mercer, you wouldn't be asking me that.""Oh?" Dawson almost laughed and thought, "Did she just call me stupid? Did I hear that right?""You've seen how I lived in the Gregory family for four years. Do you really think I have anywhere to go after the divorce? Do you think going back there would make my life any better?""So you're saying... you're not leaving my house, right?""That's right.""Then why not just say it outright?" Dawson asked, puzzled."Because I don't want to feed your ego."Words failed

"Really?" Lorraine's eyes lit up.These thoughts and details could not escape the big shot's sharp eyes."Of course.""I..."Lorraine really wanted to just say it outright, "I want the fire-red bead that Grandpa once gave to the Gregory family."After all, she had stayed with the Gregory family for four years, just looking for an opportunity to find out where it went.She had searched almost everywhere in those four years but in vain. It was strange.Except for the safe in John's room.There was no trace of the bead anywhere.But she also felt it was unlikely to be in the safe.Because recently the Gregory family had a financial crisis, and John had opened the safe.She was not there at that time.But later, from John and Eleanor's conversation, she learned that the safe only had gold, diamonds, and luxury watches.No one mentioned the bead, and she didn't dare to ask.For the past four years, her relationship with the Gregory family had always been delicate.To be precise, all four m
