The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 201

Ben Hawk stared at Joey and said abruptly, “I was almost beaten to death, and you were behind it, weren’t you?”

Joey’s heart skipped a beat, but she shook her head calmly, “No!”

She didn’t lie, because it wasn’t her behind it. Fiona had done it without her permission. Of course, she wouldn’t give Fiona up, because she knew Fiona had done everything for her. But if Ben Hawk had proof, she would admit it when necessary and take all the responsibility.

Ben Hawk didn’t believe it. He smiled and said sarcastically, “I guess one can really change a lot in a short amount of time. Joey, you’re really different. Never mind, what goes around comes around. All is even now. I just want to confirm one thing with you today. I know you’re pregnant, is the baby mine?”

Joey was so angry that she laughed, while shaking her head, “Ben Hawk, don’t you think you’re ridiculous? How could the baby be yours? It’s not yours, for sure. It’s Allen’s.”

But it seemed that Ben Hawk hadn’t heard her. He said suddenly, for no reason at all, “Joey, come with me. Don’t think about the power and wealth of the Charles family anymore. Why don’t the three of us live a happy and peaceful life together? I’m begging you. We are young and we can make money. There’s no point in trying to use our baby to marry into a rich family.” Joey was confused, “Are you insane? I’ve never intended to marry into the Charles family with my baby. Don’t you understand what I said? The baby is not yours. I’m marrying Allen, just because I love him for who he is. It has nothing to do with the Charles family. Don’t think that you can ruin my happiness by joining hands with Yolanda. I’m telling you, no one can ever separate us.”

She stood up angrily. She couldn’t go on talking to him face to face like this. She couldn’t bear to see his disgusting face for another second.

Ben Hawk didn’t stop her. He just leaned back in his chair and watched her slam the door and leave with cold eyes.

He slowly took a nice-looking pen out of his shirt pocket and played with it for a while in his hand with an increasingly cruel smile on his face.

It was more than a simple pen, because there was a miniature voice recorder in it. Such a high-end equipment was certainly not his. Yolanda had given it to him to record his conversation with Joey in the café.

Joey had no idea that she had fallen into a big trap that Yolanda and Ben Hawk had set for her, neither did she know that while she was talking to Ben Hawk face to face, there was a black Lamborghini parked across the road from the Sky Café with Allen sitting in it.

Allen had undoubtedly seen everything when Joey and Ben Hawk spent some time alone in the café.

Allen should have been at work now, but he had suddenly gotten a call in the office from Chance who asked him to drive to the Sky Café without telling him why. Allen had waited for Chance for quite a while across the street, but Chance was nowhere to be seen. He finally saw Joey walking into the café to meet Ben Hawk alone.

Parked across the street from the café, Allen couldn’t hear the conversation between Joey and Ben Hawk, let alone their facial expressions. He could only vaguely see them sitting across the table from each other.

Allen found it hard to breathe when Joey walked out of the café. He had never expected that she would see Ben Hawk behind his back.

He took out his phone and called Joey with a cold face.

Joey breathed a sigh of relief after she left the café. She held her head slightly high and walked on the street slowly. She tried her best to calm down, and told herself over and over again not to get angry so easily, for both her mental health and her baby.

Just then, her phone rang and it was Allen. She answered it immediately, “Allen!”

Staring through the window at her dancing a little, Allen heard her lovely and happy voice. He paused a while and softened his voice, “Baby, where are you now?”
