## Storylines

Margaux Dawson is the new District Attorney in Port Charles who was hired by either Janice Lomax who resigned from her position as mayor or Margaux's male counterpart Ned Quartermaine who was recently elected mayor of Port Charles after her predecessor Paul Hornsby was sent to prison of being the General Hospital serial killer after she prosecuted Frank Anderson and Greg Barnes for the crime at the Metro Court Hotel with her friend judge Natalie Rawles present as Natalie sentenced Frank and Greg to life in prison without parole at Pentonville Penitentiary where the aftermath of the event left Nathan West unharmed. She represented Nelle Benson in her case for pressing charges against Carly Corinthos to make Carly a target for Heather Webber after the deaths of Nathan West and Cesar Faison respectively which triggered the earthquake one month later. Apparently, filling in the void the late Nathan West left behind. In early June, Margaux took residence at Nelle's male counterpart Peter August's former room at the Metro Court after her new friend Valentin Cassadine helped escape from jail. On June 25, she found Sam McCall and Curtis Ashford searching in her room for evidence leading to Peter, later she shared her concern to Commissioner Jordan Ashford about the PCPD hiring Ashford and McCall P.I. firm, especially when Sam is a known associate of Jason Morgan and Sonny Corinthos.

On July 17, Margaux met Drew Cain and on July 24, she found the missing drive containing all of his memories in the lost and found box at the Metro court. In early August, thanks to Jason, Margaux was given all the evidence needed to exonerate Carly and to convict Nelle for her numerous crimes; particularly killing her ex fiancé Zachary Grant before she came to town, framing Carly, and recently attempting to have her thought-to-be husband Michael murdered. She continues to bond well with Drew, without him having any knowledge that she has the key to his past. On August 17, at Charlie's, after Drew refused to help Margaux in her plot to take down Sonny, she kissed him before she walked out. Drew followed her and questioned her about the kiss. After back and forth arguments, they confessed that they are attracted to each other and they agreed on a date.

In August 2018, Margaux was unable to prosecute Michael Carson and Shawn Phillips who were arrested and taken into custody for abduction of Anna Devane and Hamilton Finn as Margaux's new enemy Cassandra Pierce disappeared without a trace as she was abducted by an unknown man because they're out of her jurisdiction.

In 2019, she was unable to attend the Nurses' Ball because she was busy. She later resigned as District Attorney of Port Charles a year and a half later after Janice Lomax resigned as Mayor of Port Charles.

On June 18, 2019; ran into Drew at the hospital and told him she was leaving town and apologized for using him in her efforts to take down Sonny. Drew forgave her and they had a nice talk, even confessing that they enjoyed each other's company. Eventually Margaux asked Drew about his time with Shiloh (who went by Hank back then) in Afghanistan and Drew told her that Shiloh claimed that he saved his life and since then Shiloh changed but it was clear that he was also interested in his memories. Drew thanked her for the head's up and they parted ways on good terms. Margaux left town the same day that Sherri Anderson appeared before the arrival of Martin Grey three months later, then Roz Venta came to Port Charles as a new attorney one month later, and Ned's daughter Brook Lynn Quartermaine returned one month after that after the unknown man was revealed to be Nikolas Cassadine alive and well who abducted Cassandra Pierce.
