The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me

One noon, Joey was taking a nap and was suddenly waken up by laughers from downstairs. Mrs. Charles laughed the loudest.

Joey had serious morning sickness these days. When she woke up, she couldn't fall asleep again. She got up slowly and opened the door.

Her maids Seventeen and Eighteen were unfailingly guarding the door.

Joey asked them, "Any visitors today?"

She wondered who could make Mrs. Charles laugh so hard.

Eighteen, who was more gossipy, answered immediately, "It's Miss Yolanda. She brought many gifts."

"Miss Yolanda?"

Joey whispered. Wasn't she Martin's elder sister? She was instantly intrigued, "I'll go and have a look." "Don't!"

Seventeen and Eighteen quickly stepped in front of her almost simultaneously.

"Why?"

Joey was surprised by their overreaction. But she soon realized what was wrong and laughed, "Oh my, I forgot how rude it would be to meet a guest in pajamas. All right, I'll change my clothes." She turned around and closed the door.

Seventeen and Eighteen looked at each other and didn't know what to do.

Seventeen said, "It seems that our young master hasn't told her about who Miss Yolanda is. I'm afraid Miss Joey will be bullied by Miss Yolanda if they meet each other."

Eighteen frowned, "It was all my fault. I shouldn't have blurted it out. But to be honest, Miss Yolanda broke up with our young master long ago. She is in no position to pick on Miss Joey."

Joey had always been kind and gentle to others. She had treated Seventeen and Eighteen equally, though they were her maids. Thus they had grown very fond of Joey in return. They certainly took Joey's side between her and Yolanda. "Girls, I don't think it's a good idea to talk about others behind their backs."

When the maids were secretly worried about Joey, there suddenly came a female voice from behind. It was polite yet disturbingly cold.

Seventeen and Eighteen turned around and found Yolanda standing behind them. She crossed her arms and stared at them with a faint and compelling smile on her face. The maids were so intimidated that they couldn't breathe. "Miss Yolanda!"

They immediately lowered their heads and went silent.

Yolanda looked at them coldly and stepped forward to knock on Joey's door.

"Who is there?"

Joey had just taken her pajamas off. She quickly put them back on when she heard the knock.

""It's Yolanda."

Yolanda answered proudly at the door.

She had planned to see Allen for the past few days, but he had been avoiding her in every possible way. She had to pay him a visit at his home today.

Joey froze for a second and opened the door.

It was the first time Joey had met Yolanda. She had to admit that Yolanda was even more beautiful than she thought.

Yolanda's beauty was dazzling and unforgettable.

She was a very fashionable and well-dressed young woman with long curls, an elegant purple shirt, a white expansion skirt and a pair of pretty Burgundy high heels. She looked very tall and fetching.

She was a few inches taller than Joey in high heels. But they were actually of similar height, because Joey was in slippers now.

Joey was very impressed by her eye-catching beauty.

Yolanda was surprised by Joey's subtle beauty too. Joey wore no makeup, and looked simple yet elegant. She was very amiable and likeable.

Yolanda's heart sunk when she saw Joey. She had apparently underestimated Joey.

Yolanda went straight into Joey's room without being invited to do so. She closed the door.

Joey was startled by Yolanda's unfriendliness. She would be a fool not to detect it.

"Miss Yolanda, what can I do for you?"

Joey was confused. She had no idea how she had offended Yolanda.0000000
