The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 203

At 3:50 p.m., a delicately wrapped mysterious document was sent to George Charles’s office with his name on it.

After a security check at the door, it was put on his table.

He had gotten several of these mysterious documents that informants had sent here on a daily basis. Thus he wasn’t surprised to see it at all. But after he opened it, he frowned at its content. The document was centered on one person, and it was Joey Linderman.

It was a detailed report on Joey, her family and educational background, etc. But it mainly described her previous relationship with Ben Hawk.

In fact, George Charles had known everything about Joey.

He had never intended for his son Allen to marry Joey, but he had sent someone to investigate her long ago as a discreet father. Thus he wasn’t surprised to see any of it.

However, an ordinary sound recorder in the file suddenly caught his attention.

He naturally pressed the play button of the recorder.

There instantly came the voices of a man and a woman. The man said, “I just want to confirm one thing with you today. I know you’re pregnant, is the baby mine?”

The woman said, “Ben Hawk, it’s yours, for sure. It’s not Allen’s.”

The man continued, “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.” The woman said, “I’ve intended to marry into the Charles family with my baby. I love the power and wealth of Charles family. I’m telling you, no one can stop me.”

The conversation was short, but there was a shocking secret in it. George Charles turned pale when he heard it.

The man’s voice sounded strange, but the woman’s voice was as familiar as it could be for him. It was Joey!

“What a shameless girl!”

Blue veins stood out on his forehead with fury. He smashed the recorder on the floor and his eyes were ferocious.

Joey would have been stunned to hear the recording if she were here.

The conversation had been tampered with. She had indeed said every word of it, but it wasn’t exactly what she had said. Now her words had been completely twisted to express the opposite of her intended meaning.

It wasn’t a very clever trick, but George Charles hadn’t really trusted Joey very much. A man clever as a fox, he didn’t even question the authenticity of the recording.

He quickly gave Chance a call.
