The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 272

Joey watched Paige instigate her son, but she didn’t move or try to explain. She just stared at Allen. If he really hit her, she wouldn’t run away, instead, she would let him do it.

After that, she would never linger on what they used to have.

He didn’t protect her the other day, but she could understand and even forgave him, for she knew that was not his fault. It was his cruel relatives that ruined everything. It was impossible for Allen to guard against them all. Even though Joey was fully prepared, they still made her life miserable.

But this time, it was different. If he didn’t protect her, that could only prove that she fell in love with the wrong guy.

How could Allen not see the toughness and determination in her eyes? He suddenly felt sad for he actually made Joey lose faith in him.

Without any hesitation, Allen said to his mom seriously, “Mom, I’m not gonna hit her, never. If you won’t go to the hospital unless someone if punished, then … let that person be me.”

Allen picked up a dumbbell and aimed at his own head the moment he finished his words.

He couldn’t choose between his own mother and the woman that he loved. He could hurt neither of them but himself.

People who saw his action gasped.

“Son …”

“Allen …”

Paige and Joey almost made grieved shouts at the same time.

Blood was dripping from Allen’s hair and soon covered half of his face. Paige was angry, anxious and regretful, plus she was bleeding herself, she passed out abruptly.

For Allen, his world was also spinning. After Paige lost her conscience, he fell on the ground as well.

“Allen! Allen …”

Joey couldn’t remain calm anymore.

She hated herself for making that face expression. Why did she even doubt Allen? How could she not have a little faith in him?
