The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 189

One noon, Joey was taking a nap and was suddenly waken up by laughers from downstairs. Mrs. Charles laughed the loudest.

Joey had serious morning sickness these days. When she woke up, she couldn’t fall asleep again. She got up slowly and opened the door.

Her maids Seventeen and Eighteen were unfailingly guarding the door.

Joey asked them, “Any visitors today?”

She wondered who could make Mrs. Charles laugh so hard.

Eighteen, who was more gossipy, answered immediately, “It’s Miss Yolanda. She brought many gifts.”

“Miss Yolanda?”

Joey whispered. Wasn’t she Martin’s elder sister? She was instantly intrigued, “I’ll go and have a look.”

“Don’t!”

Seventeen and Eighteen quickly stepped in front of her almost simultaneously.

“Why?”

Joey was surprised by their overreaction. But she soon realized what was wrong and laughed, “Oh my, I forgot how rude it would be to meet a guest in pajamas. All right, I’ll change my clothes.”

She turned around and closed the door.

Seventeen and Eighteen looked at each other and didn’t know what to do.

Seventeen said, “It seems that our young master hasn’t told her about who Miss Yolanda is. I’m afraid Miss Joey will be bullied by Miss Yolanda if they meet each other.”

Eighteen frowned, “It was all my fault. I shouldn’t have blurted it out. But to be honest, Miss Yolanda broke up with our young master long ago. She is in no position to pick on Miss Joey.”

Joey had always been kind and gentle to others. She had treated Seventeen and Eighteen equally, though they were her maids. Thus they had grown very fond of Joey in return. They certainly took Joey’s side between her and Yolanda.

“Girls, I don’t think it’s a good idea to talk about others behind their backs.”

When the maids were secretly worried about Joey, there suddenly came a female voice from behind. It was polite yet disturbingly cold.

Seventeen and Eighteen turned around and found Yolanda standing behind them. She crossed her arms and stared at them with a faint and compelling smile on her face. The maids were so intimidated that they couldn’t breathe.
