The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me

Instead of being sad, Joey was more disgusted by the moaning.

Her parents, who had fallen asleep, were woken up by them too.

“Oh my, our daughter is crying out so loud in the middle of the night. I’m afraid our neighbors will hear it too. What a reckless girl!”

Mrs. Linderman was embarrassed and restless.

She just assumed that it was Joey who was crying loud. There was no way she would know it was adultery going on between Vivian and her brother-in-law.

Mr. Linderman felt awkward, “Let’s go to sleep. It’s their business after all.”

Mrs. Lederman couldn’t fall sleep because her sexual desire was awaken now. She pushed her husband and said shyly, “Darling, you see…we haven’t done it for a month. Why don’t we…”

“It’s…inappropriate now. What if the kids heard us?”

Mr. Linderman instantly shook his head.

“They wouldn’t hear us, trust me, because they are busy doing it right now. Come on!”
