The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 71 They were caught in the act 2

Joey wanted to stop Allen, but it was too late. He had shouted to Sarah and Marco.

Having been indulging themselves in sensual pleasure on the horseback, Sarah and Marco were startled at the shout. Panicked, they looked up and saw Joey and Allen standing on the top of the hill. "Marco, what should we do? You need to get out of me."

Sarah suddenly went pale and wiggled her hips, trying to get him out of her body.

Marco immediately held her still, blushing, "Miss, it's too late now. Don't move. It would make it easier for them to replace what we're doing if we panicked. Just pretend that there is nothing going on."

He secretly urged the horse to speed up while shouting at Allen and Joey, "I'm teaching Sarah how to ride a horse. It's running very fast. It's unstoppable now. See you later."

The horse was running past them from below.

Sarah lowered her head because she was too embarrassed to look up at Joey right now. Caught by her best friend under such circumstances, she blushed and genuinely regretted her recklessness. Soon Sarah and Marco went out of sight. Joey glared at Allen, turned around and headed into the mountains.

"Baby, what's wrong? Why are you mad at me?"

Allen was confused and quickly caught up with her.

Joey stopped and said angrily, "Allen, you've gone too far this time. Even if Sarah were currently involved with Marco, you shouldn't have tried to uncover their affair just now. Sarah was very embarrassed and she is my friend. You insulted both of us by blowing her cover right in front of me. I...hate you."

Allen realized that he had made a huge mistake. He hurriedly held her in his arms and explained, "Baby, please don't be mad at me. I know I made a mistake. I was just joking..."

"No one should make such a joke. You are so insensitive and selfish. Get off me."

Joey was really mad this time.

Allen had never seen her so angry since she had always been gentle and sweet. Every time she got upset, she would forgive him immediately after he had apologized to her. He wondered if he had really gone too far this time. "Baby, are you mad at Sarah?"

"I...”

Joey opened her mouth and tried to deny it, but she eventually said nothing. Indeed, Allen hadn't done anything outrageous, then why was she so mad? It turned out that she was actually mad at...Sarah.

There had been something usual with Sarah and Marco just now. They were sitting too close to each other. Joey was too upset to argue with Allen. She murmured, "How could Sarah have done such a thing? She is no longer the girl I've known for so many years. She and Philip made a cute couple back in college. Then she fell in love with John Walter. Now...she is seeing Marco. She..."

Allen patted her on the back and said gently, "The world is way more complicated and dirty than you think. Some people would try their best to stay true to themselves, while others would end up being pushovers. Sarah is not a bad girl, but she seems to have poor judgment.

You believe she and Philip made a cute couple. I think it's not true. I'm afraid Philip has never fallen in love with Sarah. As for John Walter, he is worse. He is just a wealthy womanizer. I'm sure Sarah will get nothing from him, except a broken heart.

Now she is dating Marco, and I think there is nothing wrong with that. Marco is a village boy, but he is simple and honest, and more reliable than most men in the city. Besides, he is a really good-looking fellow. So if you really care for Sarah, why don't you encourage her to consider a serious relationship with Marco? Perhaps she will be very happy with him."

Joey looked up at him, and thought about it for a while. She thought he had a point. But she quickly shook her head, "It's impossible that Sarah would settle down for Marco and live here from now on. Sarah is an aspiring young girl, and I don't think she would be contented with a rural life in the deep mountains."

Allen shrugged, "Life is fleeting and things change all the time. Maybe Sarah will come round someday. Baby, let's drop the subject. Sarah is a grown woman with a private life. At the end of the day, she has to make her own decisions. Didn't you plan to pick mushrooms today? Let's get back to work!" Joey finally remembered what she was here for. She frowned and nodded her head. They resumed the hunt for mushrooms.

Allen followed her anywhere. He kept thinking about Sarah and Marco's unconventional game on the horseback, which was novel and provocative. He would like to play some intimate games with Joey now and then. It was a shame that Joey was as conservative as a woman can get. She certainly wouldn't change overnight.
