Chapter 85
The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me
âOuch... It hurts so much. Help, help...â
Joey was painful, angry and frightened. She was afraid that she would be dragged back home by Ben Hawk. She couldn't imagine how brutally she would be treated.
Such loud noise instantly drew great attention from other customers and waiters in the café. Some of the young customers and waiters tried to stop him.
Ben Hawk kicked a table nearby over with a fierce look and shouted at them, âItâs none of your business. She is my wife and she has been cheating on me with other men. She hasnât come back home for more than ten days. Now Iâm taking her home with me. Whatâs wrong with that?â
The audience hesitated. They looked at Joey with scorn and hatred. They werenât sympathetic anymore.
âNo, itâs not true. Iâm not his wife....Ah...â
Joey tried to explain, but was slapped so hard by Ben Hawk that it made her head spin.
âBen Hawk...you monster, let go of her...Youâve cheated on her with another woman. Youâre shameless enough to slander her now. Youâre a bastard...â
Sarah protected her aching belly with one hand and crawled toward Ben Hawk with the other hand, trying to stop him from beating Joey.
At the moment, no one was certain which side was the just one. None of them was willing to help the girls.
As they say, even an upright official finds it hard to settle a family quarrel. They were just random passersby who happened to have a cup of coffee here.
Ben Hawk was dragging Joey out of the door, when the door suddenly opened. A tall handsome young man walked in, with a beautiful girl in his arms.
Joey recognized him and immediately shouted at him, âMartin, help me, help me...â
Yes indeed, the young man was Martin.
âDamn!â
Martin turned around at the sound to find Joey being miserably dragged by a strange man.
âYou little bastard, youâre bold enough to touch my friendâs girlfriend. Are you trying to get your ass kicked?â
Martin rushed to Ben Hawk and punched him in the face, giving him no chance to say anything.
Ben Hawk hadnât expected Martin to hit him the minute he walked in. Martin was too fast and accurate for him to dodge the punch. He took it hard and in great pain, he unconsciously released his right hand.
The minute Joey was free, she ran to Sarah on the floor.
Martin hit Ben Hawk with another kick, right in his chest.
Martin was a colonel who had been excelled in martial arts. Besides, he was very tall and strong. Ben Hawk was just a commuter who had been sitting all day long in the office. It was too much for him, especially in the chest.
âOuch!â
His mouth was bleeding and a tooth had been kicked out of his mouth. He could barely stand on his feet.
Martin was in the fighting mood and he wouldnât stop beating Ben Hawk. Joey finally stopped him, âMartin, thatâs enough. Donât beat him to death.
Youâre going to jail, if he died.â
She was worried that Martin would probably beat Ben Hawk to death if she hadnât stopped him.
Martin listened to Joey and calmed himself down. Martin gave Ben Hawk the middle finger with contempt, and then said to Joey and Sarah, âMy car is parked outside. Letâs go. Iâm driving you to see a doctor.â
Sarah was in too much pain to stand straight. Joeyâs face was badly swollen. They had to see a doctor as soon as possible.
The beautiful girl, who had shown up with Martin in the first place, panicked when she found Marin was leaving with other women. She quickly caught up with them.
However, Martin quickly shut the door. Obviously he didnât want her in the car at all.
âMartin, open the door. Donât leave without me.â
The girl looked at Martin with teary eyes.
âWhy bother? We will never see each other again. Thatâs it. Bye!â

Joey saw how Marin had treated the girl in the car. Her gratitude was soon replaced by disappointment.
She thought he would drive them to Chanceâs clinic. But he sent them to another clinic instead.
The doctor checked them. Luckily they were just flesh wounds that would heal in a couple of days.
After they left the clinic, Martin offered to drive them home again.
Sarah got off the car when she arrived at home. There was only Martin and Joey left in the car.
Martin said nothing, but looked very cold. He drove very fast, so fast that Joeyâs heart started racing. Finally, he suddenly pulled over in a strange place where they were no one around.
Joe almost bumped into the windscreen because of inertia.
âMartin, are you insane?â Joey blurted out.
