The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me

Suddenly, Mrs. Linderman felt awkward, "Vivian, mom had already promised the others. If I don't give the money, I will lose my face. Besides, 100,000 yuan is merely a drop in the bucket for you now. You do not need to be stingy. It is a deal, I will end the call now." After saying that, Mrs. Linderman immediately hung up the phone, not wanting to deal with an upset Vivian.

Vivian was furious, but at this point, she did not dare to go too far with her annoying mother. After all, Joey's matter still had to be solved by Mrs. Linderman. After giving it some thought, Vivian transferred 100,000 yuan into Mrs. Linderman's bank account despite absolute

reluctance.

On the other side.

Joey and Sarah got into the car and rushed to the hospital. Sarah briefly told Joey about her situation in the past few years and matters related to Eliza.

These few years, Sarah remained by John Walter's side. Eliza, Eliza Walter in full, was the daughter of John Walter and Cindy. She was three and a half years old. Eliza was raised by Sarah since the day she was born and she has known Sarah as her mother. Yesterday, Sarah could not come to see Joey because Eliza had a high fever. Although her body temperature had gotten back to normal, she broke her elbow at the kindergarten today. Eliza was really dogged by bad luck.

Joey listened to what Sarah had to say quietly until the end. She was confused and she asked, "Sarah, why are you the one raising Eliza? Where is her mother, Cindy? Has she been driven away to the Village of Giant Galamanders by John Walter?" Joey had met Cindy before. Cindy looked pretty, innocent, and harmless. In fact, she was ill-intentioned and narrow-minded. John Walter only wanted his daughter but not the mother, so, it could not be easy to settle her down. Sarah shook her head. Her face became a little pale as she said, "Cindy was not driven away... She is dead."

"What?"

Joey was shocked, "When did this happen?"

Joey still remembered the day she met Cindy, Cindy had just turned 16 years old. How could she have died at such a young age?

"About three months after you left the country, Cindy died... due to premature birth..."

Sarah replied with her head down, but when she said the word "premature birth", her voice was a little unnatural.

Joey did not notice Sarah's unusual tone, but could not help to sigh and commented, "The affairs of the world are really fickle, I don't think she was even 17 years old when she passed away, what a young soul." Sarah did not answer, but her head was lowered even more.

Joey held Sarah's cold hand and said, "You have been staying with John Walter all these years, did he ever mention anything about marrying you?"

Sarah shook her head, "Aren't you clear on what kind of person he is? How could he possibly marry a woman like me? I think he has always looked down on me all this time. Speaking of marriage, he has been talking about it recently, the fiancée seems to be Allen's younger sister, Martha Charles. I heard that the Charles family has already agreed to it, and the wedding should be held next month." Sarah's voice was flat, as she was just like telling others' story and nothing was related to her.

One could imagine that the current John Walter was nothing to her anymore.

Joey was extremely shocked upon hearing this.

John Walter's irresponsibility towards Sarah was almost expected by Joey. However, she would never expect he would turn to Martha with his bad intentions, yet the Charles family had even agreed to the marriage. That was really unexpected! Martha's face flashed across Joey's mind. What a girl who was so heartbreakingly stubborn and paranoid, she thought.

Thinking of Martha, Joey could not help but think of the love between Lawrence Charles and herself. Four years had passed and as she came to think about it, it was fruitless.

Joey suddenly felt that even though she had the information given to her by Fiona, it was still not perfect enough. There were too many things that had happened in the past four years. It seemed that she had to pour in more effort to gather information if she wanted to adapt as soon as possible.

Putting away all her chaotic thoughts, Joey looked at Sarah very seriously and said, "Since he is so ruthless and he never thought of giving you a future, you should leave him. You are no longer young, you will turn thirty in two years. Once a woman passes thirty, it will not be easy to find a good husband anymore. So, you should find someone who truly loves you and get married, have children, and form a happy family while you are still not thirty years old."

Sarah laughed bitterly and said, "It is not that I don't want to leave, the truth is that he simply won't let me go. Eliza is very dependant on me. Without me, she is not willing to go to school, eat, or even sleep. Although he is not a good lover, he is a good father. He did everything he can to keep me from leaving them for the sake of Eliza. He won't let me go, probably not until Eliza is an adult."

And when it came to a true lover, she did not need to look for one, as someone who truly loved her had been by her side for four years.

However, she could not give him anything but agony and torment.

Any man who had to watch his beloved woman lying in the arms of another man, tossing about in bed to please another man, raising their kids, would experience the world's most unbearable suffering.
