Chapter 121
The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me
âMr. Charles, what a surprise! I didnât expect to see you at the auction here. However, I will be the winner today.â
Standing in front of Lawrence Charles, John Walter slightly raised his head and shot him a sideways glance full of arrogance. He was literally inviting someone to kick his ass.
âReally?â
Lawrence Charles stared him straight in the eye and didnât flinch at all. He said coldly, âThere is no point in arguing with you now. Those who laugh last, laugh best. Let's wait and see.â
Tactfully rebuked by his rival, John Walter got a little irritated. Then he smiled sarcastically. âThere have been rumors that Mr. Charles likes men and is always together with his male secretary. But it seems now that itâs not quite the case. Are you happy with the pretty personal secretary next to you?â
What he was saying was offensive to Lawrence Charles, Quentin and Joey.
Both Quentin and Joeyâs faces instantly turned sour.
However, Lawrence Charles retorted coldly with a straight face, âItâs none of your business. I couldn't care less about what others might say. I think youâre the one who should be worried about your health, with all these women around. Of course, Iâm not curious about it at all, because the answer is quite self-evident. All right, some of my friends are waiting for me over there. Excuse me!â
After saying that, before John Walter, who was now purple with anger, could say anything, Lawrence turned around and strode off.
Joey quickly caught up with him.
Joey would love to stay and speak with Sarah, but the idea of John Walter being nearby was discouraging.
Joey followed Lawrence Charles closely, which was annoying for John Walter. As they say, âthe best is always the unpossessed.â Although the twin sisters were young and pretty, John Walter had to admit that Joey was the most tempting one when he laid his eyes on her again.
Sarah, who had been standing next to him, caught every nuance of his expression and smiled silently and sarcastically.
She wasnât sad about his unfaithfulness anymore. She was just amused by his greediness.
Sarah knew very well that she wasnât in love with John Walter anymore. She had loved him, but he squandered it. But she couldnât leave him now.
She had to wait a little longer. Their twisted relationship could come to an end when her brother was fully recovered.
Sarah looked at Joey who was following Lawrence Charles away when Joey happened to turn around to look at her. Their eyes met and they smiled at each other knowingly before they left the auction hall one after another.
It was 15 minutes away from the auction and they had time to have a chat.
âJoey, your boss is so cool. Tell me, do you have a crush on him?â
Sarah held Joeyâs hand and chuckled.
Joey instantly explained, âSarah, stop the nonsense. My boss, he is actually...Allenâs younger brother.â
Sarah gasped, âOh, my God! He turns out to be your brother-in-law!â
âOf course not. Allen and I are just dating right now. Donât make fun of me.â
Joey was impressed by Sarahâs wild imaginations. She took a glance at the twin sisters who looked exactly the same in the same clothes across the hall and asked, âSarah, have the twins given you a hard time recently?â
Sarah was suddenly infuriated by the thought of them, âThey certainly have. Only when John Walter has their back. They really have pissed me off.
Milla and Nana quitted because of them. I got landed with all the hard work. Gosh, Iâm exhausted!â
Joey felt sorry for Sarah. When she was about to say something to comfort her, she noticed the twins who had been following John Walter around suddenly getting up and walking toward the door.
When the twins passed Joey and Sarah in high heels, they flung them a scornful look and snorted, holding their chin high like a pair of proud peacocks.
They were apparently heading out to the ladyâs room.
Their coquettish and arrogant look was quite annoying, even for Joey.
Joey held Sarahâs hand and smiled slyly, âSarah, do you want revenge?
âHuh?â
Sarah was confused, âWhat do you mean?â
Joey put on a wicked smile, âFollow me, Iâll take vengeance for you.â
