Chapter 108 Her lie was exposed


    “Mom…are you really my mother?”


    Joey leaned against the wall and fell down on her knees in desperation. She closed her eyes and tears


    were running down her cheeks.


    Joey doubted it more than ever.


    Mrs. Linderman had been explicit about her dislike or even hatred for Joey. Joey couldn’t get the idea


    out of her mind.


    Chance, who was hiding at the end of the corridor, had watched it all.


    He touched his chin and said to himself, “A mother could be so cruel to her children, how strange it is!”


    It seemed that Joey’s question could only be answered by him.


    As a doctor, he knew it better than anyone else that DNA was the most effective way to find out


    whether they were mother and daughter.


    At the moment, Mr. Linderman, Mrs. Linderman and Joey were all at the hospital. It would be an easy


    job if he wanted to secretly collect their DNA samples, such as hair.


    Chance smiled, turned around and walked away.


    Joey didn’t stay long at the hospital, because she had to go back to work this afternoon.


    Lily had apparently learnt her lesson after the lecture this morning. When Joey went back to the office,


    she had already prepared the attendance record and taken the initiative to share the most important


    information in it with Joey.


    When Joey found that Vivian hadn’t clocked in, she immediately told Lily to call the secretary office of


    the general manager to ask whether Vivian hade to work.


    They were told that Vivian had left.


    Joey couldn’t help shaking her head in disappointment. Vivian’s arrogance this morning had really


    given her the impression that her sister had made up her mind to work hard. Now she knew she had


    overrated Vivian.


    Time flew when there was no one in the office to give her a hard time. Four hourster, Joey got off


    work and went straight to the hospital to see her father again.


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    Only this time, she found the clinic was crowded.


    There were Mrs. Linderman and the attending doctor Chance outside the ward. Vivian and Ben Hawk


    were there too. But she was shocked to see Martin and Allen.


    She almost fell down because of fear.


    It was over. Ben Hawk and Allen Charles had met each other. Martin showed up here too. She was


    afraid that Allen had probably learnt everything from Martin or Ben Hawk.


    Joey nearly fainted, because her world was falling apart.


    At the very moment, Ben Hawk and Allen were ring at each other like a pair of sworn enemies. If it


    hadn’t been for Mrs. Linderman and Vivian trying to stop Ben Hawk from jumping onto Allen, and


    Martin and Chance doing the same to Allen, they must have had gotten into a fierce fight.


    Almost all of them froze for a second when they saw Joey.


    “Baby!”


    “Joey!”


    Allen and Ben Hawk shook themselves free from theirpanions almost simultaneously, and walked


    toward Joey side by side.


    Joey took a step backward and subconsciously had the urge to run away.


    However, her hands were respectively grabbed by them almost at the same time.


    “Get your hands off my baby!”


    Allen suddenly punched Ben Hawk’s left arm with which thetter was grabbing Joey’s hand. He was


    bursting with rage, like a possessive and protective male lion.


    “You’re the one who should get your hands off my fiancée. She’s not your baby or whatsoever.”


    Ben Hawk didn''t budge. He pinched Allen’s left arm with all his might, trying to thwart him with great


    pain.


    Caught in the middle, Joey was on the verge of a mental breakdown.


    But she knew she had to calm down as soon as possible. If she blew it, her rtionship with Allen


    would be over.


    She took a deep breath to recollect herself. She raised her eyes to look at Ben Hawk indifferently and


    said coldly, “Ben Hawk, I’ve broken off my engagement with you. It’s over between us. Get your hands


    off me!”


    Ben Hawk’s eyes were red with anger, like a raging beast, “Broken off our engagement? It was just


    your idea and I didn’t agree to do so. You will be mine forever, no matter what.”


    Allenughed sarcastically, “I just saw your so-called engagement papers. It’s not legally binding at all.


    It doesn’t matter whether you’ve agreed or not, Joey can break off your engagement at will. If you keep


    bothering her, I’m warning you, you will end up in prison.”
