章 175: Chapter 0174: How Many Wives After All

Initially heading in another direction with Aurora Richardson, Joseph Thompson immediately turned around and walked toward Bella White. As he approached the car, he glanced through the windshield at Jaylene Ziel in the driver's seat and was completely stunned, unable to react for a moment.

Jaylene just looked at him, their gazes meeting above Bella's head, remaining fixed on each other. For a time, neither of them spoke.

"Joseph, what's wrong?" Bella pushed open the car door and got out. She noticed her son staring through the glass window at Jaylene in the car and felt something was off.

Seeing her son not answering, she quickly pulled his arm with her hand and said, "That's my former student Jaylene Ziel. I met her today, and she accompanied me shopping this afternoon. Then she drove me here."

Jaylene found this situation both hilarious and ridiculous. Joseph's biological mother, her real mother-in-law, had arrived, and she, the daughter-in-law, was still kept in the dark.
