The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 343

Philip seemed to understand Joey's mind, and he said, "I've said before that I respect your choice, and I'll never regret mine. Don't feel pitiful. Today is your birthday, let's have fun!"

Three days earlier when he picked up Sammy from kindergarten and learned that Joey had moved to the hospital to take care of Allen, Philip already knew Joey's answer.

It was not as painful as he had thought, instead, he felt relieved. He had tried for four years, and although he knew the final answer, he didn't let her go and always felt uneasy. It was more he was waiting for a reason to let Joey go than waiting for Joey to love him back.

Right now, he had finally moved on. The unforgettable love had ended. Perhaps he would never fall in love with another woman, but his heart was finally at peace.

He didn't blame Joey.

He didn't hate Joey as well.

If he could, he still wanted to be kind to Joey as before, and he didn't want to get any other thoughts and hopes from this relationship, just to be kind to Joey.

Maybe Philip didn't know that his love for Joey had been elevated to a level that even he couldn't understand.

Joey stared intently at Philip's beautiful eyes, and slowly opened her arms and smiled softly.

Philip smiled, opened his arms, and leaned forward, hugged Joey.

Nothing romantic, this was a relief of the end of Philip's stubborn love.

"Thank you, Philip!" Joey touched her forehead lightly against Philip's chest and added secretly, "I'll always remember you."

There was more than one kind of love between a man and a woman. In Joey's heart, she loved Philip more than a friend, but less than a lover. However, it was precisely this kind of love that would be unsettling, but would last for a long time.

Philip held Joey's hands and tightened his brow. All the efforts he had tried came to his mind, and eventually, all disappeared, taking away all his persistence. Philip's brow gradually stretched, and he was finally relieved.

However, the scene of their embracing happened to be seen by Allen and Zelda, who were in the same Ferris wheel opposite.

"Are you jealous?" Zelda asked Allen.

"Yes."

"And you?" Allen asked.
