Great Marshal: Marrying the Bridesmaid novel Chapter 74

Daniel and his wife were watching TV at home.

Noticing that Lacey had come back alone, Hannah asked immediately, “Where's Zeke, Lacey? Why didn't he come back with you?”

Lacey immediately became sulky. “Mom, I just got off work after a busy day, and yet you ask about Zeke first without bothering whether I've already eaten. I'm your biological child, not him.”

So, Hannah asked, “Have you eaten yet?”

“Yes,” Lacey replied.

“What about Zeke?”

Lacey was rendered speechless.

My parents are completely hopeless.

She changed into her slippers and said, “Dawnie is back, and Zeke went to eat Western food with her.”

Daniel breathed a sigh of relief. “What a relief. I thought you two had a quarrel.”

Hannah asked, “Why's Dawnie back? Is she on holiday?”

“Mom, she has long graduated with a PhD. Anyway, she will be here soon. You should clean up the place.”

“Okay.” Li Yuhuan agreed and hurriedly tidied up the house.

Lacey and Dawn had grown up together, so they were very close. Hannah had even become Dawn's godmother.

So, Hannah had always treated Dawn as her daughter.

As she cleaned up the house, she asked, “Lacey, do Dawnie and Zeke get along well? That girl likes to mock others. I hope she doesn't make Zeke angry.”

Lacey smiled slyly. “Haha, mom, let me tell you, Dawnie is getting better at mocking others. It's impossible for them to get along well. She even called Zeke a trashman today. Hahaha! Isn't your son-in-law very awesome? He didn't even dare make a sound in front of Dawnie.”

She was very proud, as she was happy Dawnie was on her team.

She couldn't stand Zeke competing for her parents' attention with her.

Li Yuhuan was a little worried. “That's no good. I have to talk to Dawnie when she gets back. After all, Zeke is her brother-in-law, how can she mock him like this?”

Before long, Zeke and Dawn arrived back.

With a lot of stuff in her hands, Dawn yelled as soon as she came in, “Dad, Mom, your mischievous and pretty daughter has now come to see you.”

Daniel smiled, delighted. “Yes, Dawnie, you've grown taller, haven't you?”

Hannah hurriedly went up to her and took the gifts. “Hey girl, how many times have I told you not to buy things for us? Look at you, you're so skinny. You should use the money to buy food for yourself.”

Dawn replied, “What is money compared to the happiness of both of you?”

Lacey scolded Zeke, “Why are you so inattentive? How could you let Dawnie carry so many things alone?”

Zeke was aggrieved. “I wanted to help her, but she wouldn't let me.”

“Yeah, right. Tsk,” Lacey replied.

Dawn dislikes you and will even be glad to take it out of you. It's impossible that she wouldn't let you carry things!

After handing the gifts to Hannah, Dawn collapsed on the sofa. “I'm exhausted.”

As soon as she sat down, she suddenly remembered something, as she hurriedly stood up, and pulled Zeke to the sofa. “Zeke, have a seat and rest. You must be tired.”

What?

The Hintons gaped.

What's wrong with this girl? Since when has she become so polite?

Lacey placed her hand over Dawnie's forehead. “No fever.”
