The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me

Marco gradually backed away, but the injured left leg, with blood gushing, had already affected his flexibility. Although he avoided John's crazy chase several times, there were still cuts on his back. "Don't, don't hurt him..."

Sarah watched with horror, fighting the pain of the whip, and wanted to rush up.

"Sarah, stay away!"

Marco shouted loudly to stop her. As he fled to the window, he unexpectedly touched a baseball bat. Without any hesitation, Marco picked up the baseball bat, and with one sharp swing, he knocked the dagger off John's hand.

John shouted loudly and leaned forward to the left. Marco took this opportunity to wave the baseball bat again and hit John hard on the back. With a bang, John fell to the ground with a scream, his eyes rolled over and he fainted. "Marco!"

Sarah rushed to Marco and immediately tore a piece of cloth to tie it to the cut on his right thigh before he bled too much.

At this moment, they did not know that they had committed a crime.

"Sarah, let's get out of here. We can't stay here any longer."

Marco dropped his baseball bat, pulled Sarah to run away.

"Wait... Wait a minute."

Sarah knew that they had to run away. But before she left, she had to get one thing.

Sarah reached for the high stool and removed a few books from the top shelf. Tucked into the middle of the book was a tiny monitor, which she immediately removed.

Marco looked at it and wondered, "Sarah, how did you install this in your bedroom?"

Sarah smiled sadly, "Let's go."

In fact, she didn't want to install this thing.

The reason she installed this in her bedroom was to protect herself. She had installed this monitor for a long time, and it had clearly recorded how John had abused her these days, and even the fighting just now.

With this, she would have no problem getting out of John by legal means, but... Sarah did not feel triumphant, for even if she had the evidence of John abusing her, John had something else to threaten her. Otherwise, she would have reported to the police. With one last look at John and Jillian who collapsed, Sarah and Marco ran out of the bedroom.

But when she was about to leave the Walter Family's villa, Sarah suddenly stopped and looked around at a quiet room in the villa. She couldn't lift her feet for a long time.

"Can't you part with Eliza?"

Marco caught Sarah's mind. "How about... taking her with us."

Sarah treated Eliza as her own baby, and Eliza impressed Sarah with her innocence and cuteness. So, in Marco's mind, Eliza was not like John, and he never disliked her for his displeasure with John.

Sarah shook her head. "Eliza is John's daughter anyway. We have no right to take her away without permission. Let's go!"

Even if she didn't want to leave Eliza alone, she had to leave now.

She only hoped that Eliza would be able to grow up on her own. She was a four-year-old child and should learn to be independent.

They got into the car and drived away.

After much thought and Sarah's suggestion, they headed to the Reston Hotel.

In half an hour!

After leaving Allen and returning to the room, Joey was taking a shower when she suddenly heard a hasty doorbell.

Thinking it was Allen, Joey immediately got out of the tub, wrapped herself in her bathrobe, and opened the door, only to see Sarah and Marco standing in front of her, both covered in blood. "Sarah you... What's the matter with you?"

Joey was so shocked. She helped them into the room and got the first-aid kit prepared.

After a simple procedure to stop the bleeding, Sarah told the whole story. She had nothing to hide from Joey, and she chose to bring Marco here because Joey was the only one who could help her and Marco now. When Joey heard this, she almost flipped the table.

Although Joey had already guessed John's brutal behavior when she saw Sarah's wounds in the morning, she didn't realize John would be so perverted. She was heartbroken when she saw the cuts on Sarah's face.

After comforting Sarah, Joey asked Sarah and Marco to go to the hospital immediately, but they refused to go, so Joey had to find a private doctor to treat them in person.

After all, Marco was badly injured and bleeding a lot. After the doctors treated his wounds, he fainted and fell asleep from fatigue.

Sarah pulled Joey into the bedroom and closed the door, saying, "Joey, I... There's one more thing I have to tell you. All these years I've been afraid to tell anyone, even Marco, but now I want to tell you, because, well, it may be revealed soon."
