The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 209

The sun was scorching hot in the sky.

It was noon when Joey slowly woke up.

She found herself in the hospital bed somehow and surrounded by Allen, Sarah, Martha, Philip and her parents who were supposed to be at home in the countryside now.

When she saw her parents, it suddenly occurred to her that she was getting engaged to Allen today. So her parents had travelled all the way from their hometown to attend her engagement party, only to find her in the hospital.

Everyone was overjoyed when Joey finally woke up.

However, Joey’s eyes had been fixed on Allen’s face since she opened them. She just stared at him with those empty eyes.

They were all worried about her state of mind.

Allen felt very sorry for her. He bent down and took her pale face in his hands, “Baby, how are you feeling? You can tell me.”

She stared blankly at Allen’s handsome face with her increasingly serious and cold eyes. After a long pause, she said painfully, “The baby…is gone.”

He was heartbroken, but his voice was even gentler, “I know. The baby wasn’t doing great. It’s not your fault that our baby is gone. Don’t be too sad. We’re young and we’ll have another baby.”

When he left the hotel and hurried back home, he had gotten the news of her miscarriage. He knew he would never forgive himself and Yolanda.

His mother Mrs. Charles had told him that Joey had lost the baby because she had lost her temper when he hadn’t returned home last night. Joey’s maids were scared and nodded along.

Joey didn’t know that Allen had been misled. She was infuriated by what he had said. She suddenly sat up and grabbed him by the collar, shouting, “It’s not an accident. It was your father George Charles who killed our baby. It’s him…”

“Baby, please calm down.”

Allen immediately took her hand and frowned, “My father wasn’t at home when you lost the baby yesterday. How could he have hurt our baby? Joey, Chance said that your condition has worsened and you might have hallucinations.”
