The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 214

“No!” Joey suddenly took Sarah’s hands and shook her head, “Don’t tell them. I…I just want to get out of here.”

“What?” Sarah was shocked, “Joey, where are you going?”

Joey smiled bitterly, “Anywhere is fine. I just don’t want to stay here anymore.”

“But why?” Sarah looked at Joey anxiously. She was very afraid that Joey was talking crazy.

“Why? There are there are many reasons.” Joey shook her head feebly. She was heartbroken and helpless. She looked up into Sarah’s eyes, “Sarah, do you trust me?”

“Of course I do.”Sarah replied without hesitation.

Joey was relieved and grateful, “Thanks. I knew I would always have you as my best friend, even if all others betray me. I just want to tell you that I didn’t lose my baby by accident. Allen’s father George Charles killed my baby. He forced me to have an amniocentesis for a paternity test, and it led to the miscarriage. But it’s not as simple as it seems. George Charles was the ringleader. Chance and Ben Hawk were accomplices. Most importantly, Yolanda is s the mastermind behind the whole thing. Do you believe me?”

Although Yolanda hadn’t revealed that day that Chance was involved in it, Joey was clever enough to figure it out herself. After George Charles had forced her to take an amniocentesis test, Allen wouldn’t have doubted her words if Chance hadn’t secretly offered help or kept it from Allen.

Sarah was stunned, but she immediately nodded with determined eyes, “Of course I believe you. I’ve always believed you since the day you said your baby was not lost by accident. I’m sure you’re telling the truth. But they don’t believe you…and Allen doesn’t.”

“Yeah, even he doesn’t believe me.” Joey smiled sadly with silent tears, “I will avenge this, but not now. Now there are too many people staring at me and expecting me to go crazy. Even if I don’t end up crazy, I’m sure they are going to drive me crazy in their own way. Sarah, I need your help. Please get me out of here.”

Sarah thought for while after hearing Joey’s request. Then she nodded with absolute certainty, “All right. I’ll help you. You must go somewhere they couldn’t find you if you really want to leave. I’ll send you abroad, ok?”

Joey froze, “Abroad?”

She wanted to go away, but she had never thought of going so far away.

However, she quickly decided that it was a great idea, because in that case, they wouldn’t be able to find her very easily. Otherwise, with their statuses and resources, it wouldn’t have made any difference wherever she fled to.

“You couldn’t go abroad without a passport, and it will take some time to get one. So you’ll have to stay in the hospital for the time being.” Sarah explained carefully.

Joey agreed, “I see. I know what to do.”

Now that she had made up her mind to go, she must make sure that nobody could ever notice anything unusual before she left.

They talked a little more and Sarah didn’t left until Joey’s father returned.

Joey resumed her dullness and motionlessness. The difference was that it was true until now.

Out of the corner of her eye, Joey watched her father busily arranging her daily necessities while occasionally talking to her about household affairs. She suddenly felt that she had gone too far. She had to pretend to be muddle-headed while she was clear-minded.

God knows how much she wanted to throw herself into her father's warm arms and call him Dad!

But she knew that she must keep it to herself. She had nothing left now. She couldn’t afford to lose her father who had loved her with all his heart, because she was afraid that, once word got out that she wasn’t crazy, those people would do even crazier things to drive her crazy, such as hurting her beloved father.

Mr. Linderman didn’t know that Joey was awake now. He was talking to her about family matters as usual while secretly wondering whether he should call Samantha or not.

It was a question he had been wrestling with for the better part of a month, ever since the first day Joey was admitted to the hospital after the miscarriage.

Samantha was Joey’s real mother after all. She had every right to know what had become of her daughter.

But he was worried that Samantha couldn’t take the blow if she knew. Besides, it was an exclusive hospital frequented by men of the upper class. He feared that if she came to visit Joey, she would be recognized by someone. He would have made the biggest mistake of all if the visit affected her family by uncovering the past she had been trying to hide for so long.

Therefore, after half a month of thinking and hesitating, He still hadn’t decided whether to tell Samantha or not.

However, he wasn’t aware that, if he had called Samantha this time, there would be no momentous kin- claiming incident later.
