The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me

Sharon stiffened, but soon, the corners of her lips curled up, smiling bitterly. "You finally recognized me!"

She was waiting, waiting for Joey to remember her, to recognize her. She had done a lot silently, which included observing Joey's intention, to see whether Joey would help her, and Joey's performance did not disappoint her these days. What she needed was someone like Joey, who had irreconcilable conflict with the Charles family, or even hatred. Joey got a little scared again. Sharon sounded like she had been waiting for this for a long time. She paused and said, "Let's go somewhere and have a talk."

"Good!"

Sharon looked warily around and said, "Better find an inconspicuous place."

Joey knew she didn't want to be noticed.

After thinking about it, Joey said, "I know a park nearby. It's dim at this time. We shouldn't be noticed there."

So the two of them walked a few dozen meters apart into the park and joined up under a tree at the bottom of the park.

"Sharon, I heard you got crazy, but now it looks like you're perfectly normal. What's going on?" Joey lowered his voice and asked impatiently.

Sharon shook her head with a wry smile and her voice was full of repressed hate, "You must have heard the Charles family say that," she said, "Well, the Charles family has the ability to drive a well-behaved person crazy, just like you were then, and me now." "If you believe me, you can tell me the truth, and perhaps I can help you."

Joey knew better than anyone what Sharon was going through.

"Yes, I believe you, although the days I spent with you were not long, both William and I know you are a good girl, and very wise. When I was pregnant, William said that if he can't save me, I can ask you for help. Although you were abroad at that time, William said you will come back, come back to show all the people who have insulated you and got back what you should have."

Hearing that, Joey was shocked. She didn't expect that William would think her that through. The older he got, the wiser he became. He not only knew that she would come back, but that she was going to help Sharon, not because she was vengeful, but also she was grateful.

At that time, William and Sharon had helped her more than once. Although she might not be the one who would pay back the kindness ten times she received from others, she would certainly return the favor.

The thought that such a clever old man was now paralyzed in bed made Joey feel sorry.

Sharon then opened up to Joey about how her life with William, which had been peaceful and happy, was shattered when she was miraculously pregnant.

William was over-happy to have a baby at his old age, and he felt Sharon hadn't lived a good life since she was with him, so he wanted to give Sharon a status in the Charles family, so that Sharon and the unborn baby could live a more secure life after he was gone. Not surprisingly, George and Paige strongly opposed it.

William, after all, was getting old and had left the officialdom for nearly 10 years. The family's finances were already in the hands of his son, George, so William's authority was not as convinced as before. No matter how hard William tried, George and Paige refused to accept Sharon, and they even used stalling tactics. William was helpless. What he could do was try his best to protect Sharon.

But unexpectedly, things had a sharp turn at the last minute.

Sharon delivered the baby, but it was a dead baby.

When William heard this, he almost fainted on the spot, but Paige felt that the blow was not hard enough for the old man, and even carried the dead baby in front of him.

The poor newborn baby, weighed five or six pounds, got black. Its lips were white, hands were stiff and cold.

William's hands trembled to touch the child whom he had tried so hard to keep alive. But his hands were barely halfway out when he began to twitch. He trembled so sudden, and he got a stroke!

Meanwhile, in the operating room, Sharon, exhausted from having a baby, could only watch George walk out the door with her two babies, one in each hand, looking grim.

Yes, Sharon did not give birth to a dead baby at all, but live twins.
