The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 113

“No, Allen, it’s not your fault. It’s mine. I should have told you everything about myself in the first place. But I was just scared. I was afraid that I would lose you if I had told you…”

Cradled in Allen’s arms, Joey was finally able to open her heart to him.

Allen hugged her tightly and said gently, “Now all is clear. No more secrets between us from now on, all right?”

“All right!”

Joey nodded a little guiltily. Although Allen knew Ben Hawk had been her fiancé, he didn't know that she had been tied to the bed and raped by the monster. She didn't dare to tell him about it at all.

But other than that, she told Allen everything else about her this night.

It was then he learned how Joey had been drugged and ended up in the hotel room alone. It turned out that he had been coincidentally mistaken for a male prostitute, which he found very amusing.

It was the night when he told Joey about his past.

He had a girlfriend in high school and they had dated through college. He had planned to marry her upon graduation, but the girl was too ambitious to accept his proposal and settle down. After graduation, she had decided to study overseas alone. He hadn't seen her ever since.

Joey was a little jealous. She looked up at Allen and pouted, “Allen, do you miss her?”

“Not at all, because you’re the only one I love.”

He touched her nose lovingly and said, “We broke up five years ago. I bet she has already forgotten me. I can’t remember what she looks like, either. So it's impossible for me to miss her.”

Joey shrugged her shoulders and said, “Haven’t you dated any other woman in the past few years?”

“Of course not.”Allen denied it without any hesitation.

“Really?”

But she wasn’t convinced because of his quick denial.
