The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 248

"I..."

Joey wanted to clear her doubts, but she didn't know where to start.

She was making a bold guess; she could be wrong. If things were not what she thought, she would be embarrassed.

Vivian caught up with her when she hesitated. She was terrified as she looked at Joey. Vivian was gasping for a breath; she looked hilarious.

When Joey saw the fear and terror in Vivian's eyes, she changed her mind.

As in, if you wanted to murder someone, will you give her a quick one? Or you preferred to torture her slowly to death?

With the fraud Vivian had convicted, it was still fair enough to treat her with the latter option.

Hence, Joey took a deep breath to regain her composure. Then, she smiled lightly and said, "Nothing much actually. I just thought that I lost something very important, but then I recalled I left it at home."

After that, she went back to her seat, calmly.

Vivian was relieved when Joey did not expose her. However, she felt uneasy when she was with Joey.

It was hard for Vivian to finish the meal as she was afraid that she might get exposed by Joey anytime.

After the meal, Vivian thought everything would be fine. Out of a sudden, Joey asked, "Samantha, I wonder how old is your younger daughter?"

She asked a brilliant question. Chronologically, something was not right.

Vivian's face turned pale again when she heard Joey questioning. Instantly, Samantha answered, "She is 27 years old."

Upon hearing that, Joey was flabbergasted.

27 years old? That was her age!

"When is her birthday?"

Joey's voice was trembling.

Samantha was not aware of her inner emotion, she said truthfully, "It is her birthday in five more days. We are going to hold a birthday party, come join us!"

At that moment, Joey was confident that her bold guess was right. That was because, in five more days, it was also her birthday.
