The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 127

In many cases, once the door is opened, the brutal truth behind it might be wildly unacceptable. Amanda’s world fell apart when she found out what was going on in the bathroom.

Vivian was hurriedly putting on her clothes. She looked up and paused when she found that Amanda was glaring at her. She felt greatly ashamed getting caught in the act.

It was different from how she had felt when she was caught cheating with her sister’s fiancé, because Ben Hawk and Joey weren’t really married at the time, but Quentin and Amanda were now validly married.

Much to Vivian and Quentin’s surprise, Amanda didn’t make a scene. She didn’t curse or smack them. She just stared at Vivian and Quentin with increasingly cold eyes and her voice was determined with a repressed quiver in it, “Quentin, I'm divorcing you!”

“No, honey, let me explain…”

Quentin was shocked, reaching out to hold her hand.

“Don’t touch me with your dirty hands.”

Amanda brushed his hands away, looked into his eyes coldly and said slowly, “Sign the divorce papers when we get back home. Or I’ll send you both to court on the grounds of adultery.”

After saying that, she turned around and walked out the room.

Quentin and Vivian were left shocked and silent.

After quite a while, Vivian came to her senses, “What did she say? She will send us to court for adultery? I don’t want to go to jail.”

“Get out!”

Quentin became even more agitated.

Vivian didn't care about whether he was agitated or not. The idea of going to jail was frightening. She grabbed his hand nervously and shook her head, “No, I’m not going to jail. Quentin, please divorce her as quickly as you can. I don’t want to go to jail…”

With a sweep of his hand, Vivian was immediately thrown to the ground. He growled with angry eyes, “I told you, get out of here!”

Divorce? No, never.

Going to jail? No, never.

Now he had to calm down to think about what to do next.

Intimated by his angry vicious expression, Vivian picked herself up in pain without saying anything. She went back to Ben Hawk in her room.

Deep in slumber, Ben Hawk had no idea that she had left the room. Lying in bed, she couldn’t fall asleep, because Amanda’s threat had really scared her out of her wits.

On the other hand, Amanda returned to her room, shut the door and dropped to her knees against the door. She clamped her hands over her mouth and burst into tears.

She had never shown her vulnerability and pain in front of others. Now she was all alone and she couldn't pretend to be strong anymore.

Joey was unaware of what had been going on with her. The next day, she couldn’t find Amanda anywhere.

When she went to ask Leonard about Amanda’s whereabouts, he said, “Amanda said that something had come up at the company and she had to go back to deal with it. She took an early flight this morning.”

He should have gone back home to help Amanda as her assistant, but she had asked him to stay and have fun, which was a suggestion he had instantly agreed to.

When Quentin learnt that Amanda had left, he made up an excuse and hurried to the airport.

Philip had joined the tour group because Quentin had invited him to as a personal favor. Philip hesitated when Quentin was about to leave, pondering whether he should leave with Quentin. But on second thought, he persuaded himself out of the idea as he had made up his mind not to miss any chance to spend time with Joey. He certainly shouldn’t give in so easily.

The next schedule for the group was a ladyboy show.

Allen and Joey sneaked off halfway for some private time.

Joey, who had had been very upset with Ben Hawk and Philip around on the trip, was certainly on board with Allen.

Pattaya was well-known for the largest population of ladyboys in Thailand.

Joey couldn’t help marveling at how pretty those ladyboys on the stage were, because they were even prettier than real women. What a crazy world!
