The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 31

“Philip fell asleep, so I brought you home with me.”

Allen Charles raised his eyebrows.

But the truth was that he had asked Chance for some knockout drops to render Philip unconscious so that he could take Joey home.

“Well…I’m going work.”

Joey didn't suspect anything. She looked at her wrist watch and found that it was time for work.

Before she could walk away, Allen suddenly jumped off the bed and ran to her. He picked up her by the waist and threw her onto the bed. He was on top of her, “Kiddo, you'd better tell me what has been going on with you. Otherwise I won’t let you leave.”

Joey was startled. She tried to push him away but failed because she was a girl after all. She was so anxious that tears welled up in her eyes, “Are you bullying me? You're just as bad as any other man...”

Allen gently touched her face, “Baby, don’t cry. I’ve loved you too much to bully you. I was just wondering you had been so indifferent to me. Maybe I had done something wrong that made you upset. Please tell me and I’ll change, I promise.”

Joey couldn't restrain her tears anymore, “You’ve done nothing wrong. You’ve been very good to me, so good so that I don’t think I’m worthy of your love...”

“Sweetheart, what made you think like that? You have no idea how wonderful you are. You are gentle, kind, beautiful and elegant. You’re the best thing that has ever happened in my life. What a silly girl!”

Allen bent over towards and dried her tears with his sensual lips. His words were gentle, genuine and soothing.

“Really?”

Her frozen heart became warm again.

“Of course.”

Allen was serious, “If you don’t believe it, I can take you to meet my parents today. I’m going to tell them that I want to marry you.”

“No…”

Joey was surprised. Despite his touching words, she wasn’t ready to become his wife now. Besides, she hadn’t broken off her engagement to Ben Hawk yet. “We’ve met each other for less than a week. I think we shouldn't rush into marriage before we know each other better. Why don’t we find some other time to see your parents?”

“I'll take that for a yes. Baby, I love you.”

Allen smiled as happily as a child. He was so excited that he held Joey in his arms and rolled on the bed.

Their bodies pressed against each other, which was arousing for Allen.
