Chapter_749
Eaton and Paige seethed with envy as they strolled toward them.
They went to great lengths, including expending a significant sum of money, to impress Davy and gain
his favor for cooperation. Their efforts were in vain, culminating in the triumphant victory of Loraine and
Marco in the exposition.
Eaton was consumed with fury, clenching his jaw tightly. However, two law enforcement officers
apprehended him.
Trevor said seriously, “Eaton Johnathan, Paige Johnathan, your call to the police has caused an
unwarranted drain on valuable police resources. Moreover, you are now under suspicion for
endangering public safety by your illegal exhibition. You must come with us.”
Paige’s face turned ashen and the blood drained from her cheeks. She shrieked in fear, “Dad, I don’t
want to be put in jail. You’d better get me out of this!”
In an agitated state, Eaton said, “Mr. Gray, this is all a misunderstanding. Marco, Loraine, please help
us clarify the situation!”
Unconcerned with the pair’s pleas, Loraine and Marco remained aloof.
Silently, they observed the father and daughter being escorted to the police vehicle.

The police car took Joseph and Paige away.
Trevor swiveled around to look at Loraine and Marco, a wide smile on his face.
“You are appreciated for the good thing you did for our city, and you even went ahead to refuse the
reward. Still, I feel we should reward you.”
Trevor let them know what his real intentions were.
“Just merely saying thank you is not enough. We’ve decided to hold a press conference to commend
you publicly.”
Loraine waved her hand the moment she heard this.
“Thank you, but I don’t think it’s necessary.”

A small frown formed on Trevor’s face. He thought they were just too shy to attend the conference. “It
won’t be a lot. All you need to do is come up to the stage and be awarded. Our society needs more
young, promising, and righteous people Like you. Commending you publicly could contribute to
encouraging others to be Like you!”
Trevor, whose focus was on society, went on to talk about the impact of positive images on tourism and
economy.
Loraine stood there, unsure whether to accept or decline.
As she struggled with how to respond, Marco spoke.
“Loraine escaped a hijacked plane and attended an exposition right after. She’s had a lot on her plate
all day, and now what she needs the most is rest. We can discuss the conference and reward Later.”
Loraine’s eyes were filled with surprise and gratitude as she turned to
Marco.
Back then, he didn’t know how to care for her. However, now he was so considerate and could tell
when she needed rest.
