The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me

Chapter 284: Sammy Called

However, when Joey inquired about Allen's ward and stood at the door, she froze at what she saw.

Through transparent glass she could see a harmonious scene. A beautiful little girl with a bandaged

hand tiptoed and fed with her good left hand a long piece of apple to the man on the bed. The man

squinted his eyes with a smile, opening his mouth and biting the apple. A fashionable woman sitting

next to them was peeling an apple with her hanging down. She looked up at the man and the little girl,

her eyes filled with happiness.

This was how a perfect family looked like.

This scene was so beautiful, yet so piercing. At the very least, it stung Joey's eyes.

All of her excitement and longings were broken to pieces, as if a basin of cold water was poured down

on her head. Joey was cold from head to toe, her heart falling into an eternal ice cave.

On the way Joey had thought of countless possibilities of meeting Allen. Perhaps she would meet

George or Yolanda, but she did not intend to avoid them anymore. Even in front of them, she would tell

Allen the words on her mind that had been suppressed.

However, she had never expected to see such a scene.

His wife was peeling apples for him, and his daughter was feeding him apples. Everything was so NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

beautiful and happy, and her appearance became unnecessary.

Joey stepped back slowly, swallowing all her words at the sight of the happiness of the family.

Just as Joey turned to run away, her phone rang.

Joey saw that it was Fiona calling.

Had something happened to Sammy? Joey's first reaction was worrying about Sammy, who was under

the care of Fiona.

She hastily picked up the phone.

"Mom, Mom, I'm Sammy. I miss you and Dad Philip. Do you both miss me?"

Sammy's sweet and cheerful voice came through.

Joey's cold heart immediately warmed up. She lowered her voice and said, "Mom and Dad Philip miss

you every day. Sammy, do you behave well?"

"Yes!"

Sammy nodded his cute little head earnestly at the other end of the phone. "Mom, what about you?

Dad Fiona says that you went back to look for my dad. Have you found him yet?"

Joey felt distressed suddenly, about to cry. She looked back at Allen, who was enjoying his perfect

family, feeling bitter and sorrowful, but she told Sammy anyway, "Yes, I found him."

"Wow, what does the new dad look like?"

Sammy cried out in surprise and curiosity, and then he said worriedly, "Is he as handsome as Dad

Philip? Is he as beautiful as Dad Fiona? If not, I don't want him, 'cause it would be embarrassing to go

out with him."

Joey pulled a wry face.

When Sammy was born, Philip and Fiona liked him very much, eager to be his godfather. In the

beginning, Joey taught Sammy to call them Godfather, but somehow Sammy started to call them Dad.

She knew well that Philip and Fiona were behind this, but how could a child have two fathers? With her

unremitting efforts, Sammy finally changed the way he addressed Philip and Fiona, and he added their

names when he called them Dad.

Sammy might not understand who the new dad was, and he thought that he was like Philip and Fiona.

Joey felt sad. If she didn't make up with Allen in the end, would Sammy blame her for the absence of

his biological father when he grew up?

The more she thought about this, the more upset she felt.

"Mom, why aren't you talking?"

Sammy clutched the phone, waiting for her answer. Fiona, who was holding Sammy, took the phone

from his hand and said softly, "Let me talk to your mom. Sammy, go away and play for a while. Be good

and I'll take you to eat ice cream later."

"Alright. You have to keep your word!"

The child was not as obsessive as adults with unanswered questions. He jumped off Fiona's lap and

ran to play with his Rubik's Cube.

"Joey, is everything going smoothly?"

Fiona asked seriously.

"Everything goes well!"

Joey struggled to suppress her choked sobs, trying to say in her usual voice.

However, Fiona detected her sorrow as he was attentive and considerate. Recalling the question

Sammy had just asked, he narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "You should have seen Allen, right?

Does he treat you badly?"
