The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 38 Let’s go to my home

Once Joey broke free from Ben Hawk's claws, she was all mad and revengeful. She scratched his face with her sharp nails without thinking too much. His face was instantly covered in bloody wounds.

"Ouch!"Ben Hawk cried out in pain and covered his face with his hands, trembling. A horny man a moment ago, now he was soft in suffering,

Joey was startled by her aggressiveness too. She decided that she couldn't stay here anymore. She quickly ran out of the kitchen and left home.

"Joey, what's going on..."

Her father was worried.

But she was too scared to stop to answer his question. In order to run faster, she kicked off her high-heeled shoes on the way downstairs and ran as fast as she could.

However, Allen Charles had driven away.

She froze for a second before running away from the neighborhood barefoot. She kept running and running, regardless of rubbles, broken glass or rusty nails on the road. Her feet hurt very much, but she couldn't care less about it at the moment All she wanted to do was to stay far away from Ben Hawk. The farther she ran away, the safer she would be.

After dozens of minutes, she couldn't run any further. Her feet were bleeding, leaving blood footprints along the way that drew great attention from passersby.

Some of them found her legs under her professional suit long and beautiful and couldn't look away. Others were astonished by the blood footprints, suspecting that she was insane running like crazy with no shoes on.

Surrounded by curious looks, Joey lowered her head and kept walking in pain. Having left her purse at home, she was now penniless. And her phone had been smashed by Ben Hawk. She had no idea where she should go. She was lost and helpless. Just then, there came a familiar voice from her behind, "Joey?"

She turned around and found Philip standing in the sun. He was wearing jeans and a white T-shirt, simple and classic. His face was young and charming as usual, only with a touch of weariness and anxiety. "Joey, it's really you."

Philip was surprised to see her. He had been looking for since this morning and had occasionally mistaken several tall girls for her in the process. So he had to call her name to be certain that it was really her. "Philip..."

Joey was happy that he had come to her rescue when she was most desperate. She smiled, but her knees suddenly became weak. She was falling to the ground.

"Joey!"

Philip rushed to catch her by the waist. When he saw her bloody feet, he felt very sorry, "What happened to your feet? Where are your shoes?"

Joey shook her hand. She was reluctant to recall what Ben Hawk had done to her. But Philip's concern for her turned out to be the last straw. She threw herself into his arms and burst into tears.

Philip froze. Joey's tears dripped on his chest skin, which was heartbreaking for him. "Don't cry. Did the man who molested you yesterday bully you again? Tell me where he is and I'll teach him a good lesson."

Joey still shook her head. She knew Philip was talking about Allen. The thought of him made her cry even more. Allen had always loved and trusted her very much, but it seemed that she couldn't protect herself from being defiled by Ben Hawk. She felt sorry and guilty.

Joey couldn't stop crying. Philip didn't dare to ask her anything, "All right, no more questions. Your feet are seriously injured. I'll send you to see a doctor."

He carried her to a nearby clinic.

After the doctor addressed Joey's wounds, they left the clinic with a big bag of medicine.

"Where would you like to go? Are you going home?" Philip asked.

Joey immediately shook her head, "No, I'm not going home, never."

"Then...let's go to my home!"

Philip plucked up the courage and asked.
