The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me

Joey couldn't concentrate on work the entire day. After work, she paid her father a vist at the hospital first, and then hurried back home. Allen was still nowhere to be seen at home.

She dropped to her knees in great disappointment and decided to give him a call. But somehow she couldn't work up the courage to do so. Eventually she chose to turn to Sarah.

However, before she could say anything, there came Sarah's murmur from the other end of the phone, "Hey, Joey, what a coincidence! I was going to call you too. I'm at the Elsner Club right now and I forgot to bring any money. Why don't you come over and pay my bill? That's it. See you in a minute." Before she could answer, Sarah hung up the phone.

Joey froze for a second with the phone in her hand. The minute she heard Sarah's slur, she knew that Sarah was very drunk. She didn't hesitate anymore. She grabbed her purse and left home.

Twenty minutes later, Joey arrived at the club.

It was the second time she had ever come here. She was less nervous than before.

After going through the crowd for a while, she finally spotted Sarah.

However, Sarah wasn't alone. There was a pretty woman with heavy makeup sitting next to her. The woman put her arm around Sarah's waist and was practically clinging to her. They were drinking together in a most socially improper position.

A glimpse at the woman gave Joey the creeps, because it was the same pretty lesbian who had molested her on the day when she had come here in search of Allen. If Allen hadn't shown up in time, she might have had fallen prey to her.

Therefore, Joey rushed to them and brushed the woman's hand from Sarah's waist. She stood between the woman and Sarah who was totally wasted at the moment, and glared at the woman protectively and alertly, "She's my friend and she only likes men. You'd better take your hands off her."

The pretty woman froze for a second before she smiled amorously. She took her glass and approached Joey. Looking Joey up and down, she said in a frivolous tone, "It's you! It's been a while. It seems you're getting prettier. Where is Allen Charles? Why isn't he coming here with you?"

As Joey had expected, she knew Allen, and her way of taking of him suggested that she was a little afraid of Allen. Joey paused and decided to lie, "Allen's here, of course. He's just waiting for me outside."

Sarah quickly paid Sarah's bill and was about to leave.

However, the woman stood in their way and smirked, "Sweetheart, don't lie to my face. I'm an expert in detecting lies. Allen would have certainly come inside the club with you if he were really here, because walking into the club alone is a risky thing to do. As far I can tell, Allen has no idea where you are right now!"

Joey's face went pale, but she still managed to put on a brave face and said loudly, "Get out of my way! We're leaving."

"Not without my permission!"

The woman pointed at Sarah, "Your friend has promised to spend the night with me. You can go whenever you want, but she has to stay."

"You're lying. Sarah isn't a lesbian. There is no way she has agreed to such a thing. Get out of our way, or I'll call for help!"

Joey instantly stepped in front of Sarah to protect her.

The woman suddenly burst into laughter, "Calling for help? My sweetheart, aren't you a cutie? The club is full of game players who couldn't care less about anyone else. This is no place for cowards. Anyhow, your friend is mine today. Drop it!" She reached out to grab Sarah's hand, trying to snatch Sarah away from Joey.

Sarah was too drunk to open her eyes. She had been clinging to Joey with her limp body. Now that the woman was pulling her away, she instantly fell toward the woman. Joey panicked and held Sarah tighter.

However, the woman was surprisingly strong and Joey was no match for her. Joey was desperately holding onto Sarah.

Just then, a man dressed all in black suddenly stopped the woman and his voice was young yet authoritative and furious when he shouted at her, "Are you done?"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
