The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me

Joey watched Paige instigate her son, but she didn't move or try to explain. She just stared at Allen. If he really hit her, she wouldn't run away, instead, she would let him do it. After that, she would never linger on what they used to have.

He didn't protect her the other day, but she could understand and even forgave him, for she knew that was not his fault. It was his cruel relatives that ruined everything. It was impossible for Allen to guard against them all. Even though Joey was fully prepared, they still made her life miserable.

But this time, it was different. If he didn't protect her, that could only prove that she fell in love with the wrong guy.

How could Allen not see the toughness and determination in her eyes? He suddenly felt sad for he actually made Joey lose faith in him.

Without any hesitation, Allen said to his mom seriously, "Mom, I'm not gonna hit her, never. If you won't go to the hospital unless someone if punished, then... let that person be me."

Allen picked up a dumbbell and aimed at his own head the moment he finished his words.

He couldn't choose between his own mother and the woman that he loved. He could hurt neither of them but himself.

People who saw his action gasped.

"Son ..."

"Allen..."

Paige and Joey almost made grieved shouts at the same time.

Blood was dripping from Allen's hair and soon covered half of his face. Paige was angry, anxious and regretful, plus she was bleeding herself, she passed out abruptly.

For Allen, his world was also spinning. After Paige lost her conscience, he fell on the ground as well.

"Allen! Allen ..."

Joey couldn't remain calm anymore.

She hated herself for making that face expression. Why did she even doubt Allen? How could she not have a little faith in him?

If she knew Allen would prove his love with such method, she wished she had been beaten by Paige!

This moment Joey realized that neither time nor space would kill their love even though they had separated for four years.

"Call an ambulance, hurry..."

Joey held Allen tight. Looking at his wounds, she cried uncontrollably.

The crowd was moved by the scene, so someone took out the phone and called the ambulance.

Samantha, who started it all, got pale while the situation lost control. She quickly took out a napkin and helped Joey press hard on Allen's wound, so that Allen could make it until the ambulance arrived.

Samantha and Allen were not strangers. Martin and he grew up together, and as Martin's mom, of course she had spent time with him.

Samantha would treat Allen better if it hadn't been that he was Paige's son.

It was lucky that the fitness center was in a busy street, and was close to the downtown hospital. The ambulance arrived in a few minutes. Joey sent both Allen and Paige to the hospital. She paid for the bills, and then waited outside the ER anxiously.

But Samantha didn't leave at once.

"Today ...I know I caused you so much trouble, thank you for helping me out. You and Allen ... do you know each other if it's not rude to ask?" Samantha saw the way Allen looked at Joey, it was full of love, and Joey looked at Allen the same way. She couldn't help herself but asking. Since last time she saw Joey, she started to like her and hoped that Martin and she could become closer.

Joey had no idea what Samantha was thinking about, but she had no intention to hide her relationship with Allen, so she told her the truth, "I was his girlfriend, but we broke up about four years ago. Now he has married Yolanda, the princess in your family." Samantha covered her mouth out of surprise, "Jesus, you were the ex that made a mess in the Charles, the Moore and the Smith family? I can't believe it."

She signed and continued, "What a pity, you are such a nice girl, who would think that you had to deal with the Charles Family. That family is full of scums, except for Allen. George and Paige are the worst. I can imagine your life in that place. And I know Yolanda played dirty to marry Allen at that time. Although she's not my won kid, I want to apologize for her. She definitely had made you suffer then."]
