The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me

Joey was enraged at that. "Eliza Walter is only three and a half years old. When she grows up, you will be an old woman. I won't agree or allow you to waste the greater part of your life."

Sarah looked at Joey silently. It had been four years since she met Joey. And Joey had changed. In the past, it would have been impossible for her to say such a thing. However, it was not that Sarah had never fought back. It was just that John had something on her and

she did not dare to make a move.

So even if Joey could help her, Sarah would not dare to leave.

Joey didn't know that Sarah had held something back from her. Just as she was about to continue, the car arrived at the hospital. So she had no choice but to drop the topic.

They entered the hospital. Eliza was still in the operating room. The teacher responsible was guarding the operating room with trepidation. Seeing Sarah coming, he told the whole story of how Eliza broke her hand when she was climbing on the tree. After that, he left on the pretext of going to the bathroom.

Although Eliza was not her child, Sarah had been taking care of her since she was born. Eliza was not her biological child, but she meant more to her than a biological child.

Just as Sarah was wiping her tears sadly outside the operating room, a tall figure rushed over from the corridor. Without saying anything, he slapped Sarah hard on the face. Sarah was in a sad mood and was so caught off guard by the slap that she fell to the ground from the chair.

"Ah!"

Sarah let out a pained cry. She looked up and found John glaring at her.

Sure enough, Sarah was not the only one informed of Eliza's accident at school. The moment John received the phone call, he put down all his works at hand and rushed over. He was just a few minutes later than Sarah.

"That's how you take care of your daughter? Either she had a fever or she broke her hand. Is that why you don't care about her? Because she's not your kid? I warned you, woman, if she got any permanent injury on her hand, I won't let you get away with it." John viciously pointed at Sarah and scolded. His handsome face was now twisted in anger and looked terrifying.

No sooner had he finished that than another slap sounded. This time, he was the one who got a good slap. And it was even much harder than the one he had just given Sarah.

John was stunned by the sudden slap!

He turned around slowly and found the person who hit him was a woman. And the woman was...

"You, you are..."

John looked at Joey, who was standing beside Sarah, with an astonished look. He exclaimed, "Joey Linderman?"

He had been so angry that he didn't notice the woman besides Sarah until Joey hit him.

But now Joey had changed greatly from when she had been his chief secretary four years ago. It wasn't that her face had changed, but she got a different vibe, makeup, and dressing style. And all of these added up to a tremendous change. Now Joey was certainly a stunning woman who could amaze every man.

So, for a time, John almost couldn't believe his eyes.

Joey gently helped Sarah up. After that, she looked up and met John's shocked eyes before saying coldly, "Mr. Walter, your daughter broke her hand at school. What does it have to do with Sarah? If you want to vent your anger, go to school. What are you here for? How could you, a strong man, hit a lady? Don't you feel ashamed?"

The moment Joey spoke, John was confirmed that the woman bold enough to hit him was indeed his timid, weak ex-personal chief secretary.

Apart from the amazement and shock, he was consumed in burning rage. He was thirty-one years old and no one had the audacity to hit him yet.

With his charming eyes narrowing dangerously, John pursed his lips and approached Joey step by step with gloomy voice, "You hit me! How dare you to hit me! Good! Very good! It has been four years since I saw you! Looks like you've grown bolder!"

When Sarah saw John's expression, she knew he was mad. She hurried over to hold his arm and pleaded, "Don't blame Joey. It's all my fault. I failed to take good care of Eliza. Hit me if you want, not her. Please... Ah..."

Before she could finish her words, she was ruthlessly pushed away by John. She hit the wall on the back and was unable to move for a while.0000
