The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 121

“Mr. Charles, what a surprise! I didn’t expect to see you at the auction here. However, I will be the winner today.”

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.

“Really?”

Lawrence Charles stared him straight in the eye and didn’t flinch at all. He said coldly, “There is no point in arguing with you now. Those who laugh last, laugh best. Let's wait and see.”

Tactfully rebuked by his rival, John Walter got a little irritated. Then he smiled sarcastically. “There have been rumors that Mr. Charles likes men and is always together with his male secretary. But it seems now that it’s not quite the case. Are you happy with the pretty personal secretary next to you?”

What he was saying was offensive to Lawrence Charles, Quentin and Joey.

Both Quentin and Joey’s faces instantly turned sour.

However, Lawrence Charles retorted coldly with a straight face, “It’s none of your business. I couldn't care less about what others might say. I think you’re the one who should be worried about your health, with all these women around. Of course, I’m 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!”

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, “the best is always the unpossessed.” 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 wasn’t sad about his unfaithfulness anymore. She was just amused by his greediness.

Sarah knew very well that she wasn’t in love with John Walter anymore. She had loved him, but he squandered it. But she couldn’t 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.
