The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 193

“Joey…”

Philip sweated all over with worry when Joey fainted. He quickly drove her to the nearest hospital.

Philip was relieved when the medical test result came out, because the baby was safe and sound in Joey’s belly. But he suddenly went pale when he read through the test result.

“Allen Charles, you bastard, what the hell have you done to her? Why did she develop such a disease?”

Philip closed his eyes. He would certainly punch Allen hard in the face if Allen was here right now.

Joey had depression during pregnancy.

Depression during pregnancy can be quite dangerous. The mother could be very sensitive, vulnerable, anxious, extreme, emotionally volatile and moody at best, and they could have a mental breakdown and fail to even take care of themselves in daily life, or even hurt others or themselves at worst.

Fortunately it was detected in time. She wouldn’t need to see a psychiatrist or take medicine if she didn’t dwell on the past and lived in a comfortable and secure environment without anyone around to irritate her.

However, it would require mutual efforts of herself and everyone else around her, especially Allen.

Philip finally decided to call Allen, though he didn’t want to do it at all. But before he could make the call, his phone suddenly rang.

It was Martha.

“Hello!”

Philip answered the call, because he had no reason to reject her call. They didn’t love each other as boyfriend and girlfriend, but they had worked quite well together.

“Philip, my mother told me that you just kidnapped Joey?” There came Martha’s cold voice from the other end of the phone.

Philip froze for a second and shook his head with a smile, “No, it’s not. She wanted to go out, so I gave her a ride.”

“Really?” Martha’s voice was colder, “Philip, don’t you forget that the precondition of our deal is that you may see Joey, but you can’t covet her.”

“Of course. I’ll always stick to it, but not for you. I would never do anything that she doesn’t want me to do.” Philip said seriously.

“You’d better. Where are you? Take her home right now. My mother is worried sick.”
