The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 85

“Ouch… It hurts so much. Help, help…”

Joey was painful, angry and frightened. She was afraid that she would be dragged back home by Ben Hawk. She couldn't imagine how brutally she would be treated.

Such loud noise instantly drew great attention from other customers and waiters in the café. Some of the young customers and waiters tried to stop him.

Ben Hawk kicked a table nearby over with a fierce look and shouted at them, “It’s none of your business. She is my wife and she has been cheating on me with other men. She hasn’t come back home for more than ten days. Now I’m taking her home with me. What’s wrong with that?”

The audience hesitated. They looked at Joey with scorn and hatred. They weren’t sympathetic anymore.

“No, it’s not true. I’m not his wife….Ah…”

Joey tried to explain, but was slapped so hard by Ben Hawk that it made her head spin.

“Ben Hawk…you monster, let go of her…You’ve cheated on her with another woman. You’re shameless enough to slander her now. You’re a bastard…”

Sarah protected her aching belly with one hand and crawled toward Ben Hawk with the other hand, trying to stop him from beating Joey.

At the moment, no one was certain which side was the just one. None of them was willing to help the girls.

As they say, even an upright official finds it hard to settle a family quarrel. They were just random passersby who happened to have a cup of coffee here.

Ben Hawk was dragging Joey out of the door, when the door suddenly opened. A tall handsome young man walked in, with a beautiful girl in his arms.

Joey recognized him and immediately shouted at him, “Martin, help me, help me…”

Yes indeed, the young man was Martin.

“Damn!”

Martin turned around at the sound to find Joey being miserably dragged by a strange man.

“You little bastard, you’re bold enough to touch my friend’s girlfriend. Are you trying to get your ass kicked?”

Martin rushed to Ben Hawk and punched him in the face, giving him no chance to say anything.

Ben Hawk hadn’t expected Martin to hit him the minute he walked in. Martin was too

fast and accurate for him to dodge the punch. He took it hard and in great pain, he unconsciously released his right hand.

The minute Joey was free, she ran to Sarah on the floor.

Martin hit Ben Hawk with another kick, right in his chest.
