Codeception, WebDriver | How to hover, then click at a hovered location

I've a question about a using Codeception for acceptance testing.

I am using WebDriver and Asserts as modules in my acceptance testing.

Using WebDriver, I am trying to click on a label that acts as the javascript anchor for a form checkbox (the actual checkbox being hidden and a ::before font element being used to represent the checkbox as checked or not).

There is a link in this label which is located at the center of the element; the position I assume is targetted by the click() method. Due to this, I can't just click() on the element, as it will click the link instead of triggering the checkbox.

I envisioned that the solution for this problem would be to moveMouseOver(), using coordinates arguments in order to displace it to the side, then to trigger a click... but click() does not allow for a click event at the current cursor location, instead requiring a selector to be applied, thus defeating my purpose.

Is there any way to accomplish what I am attempting in the current WebDriver framework in Codeception? Alternately, is there a way to accomplish this targeting of an uneven element for clicking without the process I've outlined?

Thank you for whatever help you are able to give.
