Wife, Let's Remarry

Joseph Thompson's eye-catching champagne-colored Land Rover was parked at the entrance of Clayton Tower, attracting people's attention during the off-work peak hours.

Seeing Jaylene coming out, Joseph immediately opened the car door and got off, then waved to her with a smile, "Jaylene Ziel, over here!"

Jaylene didn't hesitate and headed towards him.

When Jaylene approached, Joseph noticed the Five Finger Mountain mark on her face and asked with a frown, "What happened to your face?"

Before Jaylene could answer, Phoebe Smith, who caught up from behind, pre-emptively spoke up, "Brother Joseph, this bitch Jaylene actually hit me. Look at my face, it's all swollen because of her."

Joseph glanced sideways, and indeed, Phoebe's face on both sides was red and swollen, looking even more terrifying than Jaylene's.

Joseph's expression darkened, and he looked at both of them, "What exactly happened?"

Before Jaylene could start, Phoebe quickly played the victim first, "Here's what happened. Today, I went to the company to find my cousin, and unexpectedly found Jaylene in my cousin-in-law's office. She was my cousin-in-law's past mistress, and now that he's married to my cousin, she couldn't bear it. She even went to flirt with my cousin-in-law during work hours. She was caught by me, so I scolded her a few times. I didn't expect this little **** to actually hit me."

Hearing Phoebe's distorted story, Jaylene widened her eyes in disbelief. How could this person fabricate such a story?

Did Phoebe's eye see her flirting with Alexander Preston?

"Phoebe, watch your words!" Joseph frowned, his voice noticeably colder. "I think Jaylene is a person with good character. She couldn't possibly do something like flirt with her boss during work hours."

"Brother Joseph, it's true. I'm not framing her," Phoebe shouted urgently. "When I arrived, she really was in my cousin-in-law's office. We can check the surveillance for this."

"What were you doing in Alexander Preston's office?" Joseph turned his head to look at Jaylene.

"I received a dismissal letter from the company in the morning, and I hadn't done anything wrong. Naturally, I had to go to my boss to ask for an explanation," Jaylene replied calmly to Joseph's question. "But Miss Smith barged in without asking questions and accused me of seducing Alexander. She even said I wanted to be his mistress and whatnot..."

"You do want to be Alexander's mistress," Phoebe hurriedly interrupted Jaylene. "Brother Joseph, she was stalking my cousin and my cousin-in-law at Sun City's entrance yesterday. I bumped into her, and she even pushed me to the ground. Many people saw it."

After saying this, Phoebe touched her face and continued, "And today, she actually slapped me. Brother Joseph, look at my swollen face. This is all done by this ****, Jaylene. You came today, you must help me get justice."

Joseph raised his eyebrows, glanced at Jaylene beside him, and lightly said, "I believe Jaylene is not someone who would resort to violence easily unless you provoked her."

Joseph actually believed Jaylene? Phoebe felt uneasy in her heart and couldn't help crying out, "Brother Joseph... don't you believe me?"

"Hearing is not believing; seeing is believing," Joseph spoke indifferently. "Besides, I didn't see it, so I won't easily believe anyone!"

Having said that, Joseph immediately opened the passenger car door and invited Jaylene in.

Usually, Jaylene wouldn't have just gotten into Joseph's car like this. However, today, especially in front of Phoebe, she stepped into the car without hesitation.

"Hey, Brother Joseph!" Seeing Joseph getting in the car, Phoebe hurriedly chased after him, "Brother Joseph, I didn't drive here. Can I hitch a ride with you too?"

"Didn't Raine and Alexander come out too?" Joseph's expression was indifferent and distant. "You have a good relationship with Raine, just ride with her. I have something to discuss with Jaylene, and I don't have time to drive you home."

After saying that, Joseph quickly rolled up the car window and drove off without giving another glance at the frustrated and jealous woman standing outside.

"Do you really not believe what she said or are you deliberately favoring me?" Jaylene turned her face to look at Joseph driving the car. She didn't expect him to know Raine Thompson and Phoebe Smith.

No, it shouldn't just be acquaintance. Because Phoebe called Joseph "Brother Joseph", there might be some connection between them.

"I'm not deliberately favoring you," Joseph looked at her and smiled. "Phoebe has been spoiled since childhood, and she's always self-centered. Although I didn't witness the details in the office, I believe you wouldn't try to seduce a man who abandoned you for wealth and fame. Even if you really hit her, it must be because Phoebe had done something extreme and provocative."

Jaylene didn't expect Joseph to choose to believe her, and his words clearly sided with her.

But Joseph's trust didn't make her happy. Instead, it made her feel inexplicably fearful, "We don't know each other well, why are you helping me like this?"

"Not familiar?" Joseph raised an eyebrow, teasingly looking at her. "I gave you my first time, how much more familiar do we need to be?"

".."

Jaylene's face, originally reddened and swollen on one side, became even redder. Damn Joseph, he did this on purpose. He must have!

Joseph didn't tease her about this topic any further but instead looked at the red and swollen side of her face, asking, "Is that Five Finger Mountain mark on your face left by Phoebe?"

"Yes," Jaylene nodded, then added proudly, "But the slap marks on her face were also left by me, and I added some interest on top of it."

Looking at her proud expression, Joseph laughed and immediately praised, "Well done, that's the way to do it!"

At Joseph's words, Jaylene froze. What exactly did he mean?

"Where do you want to go for dinner?" Joseph parked the car at the crossroad, waiting for the red light, and turned his face to ask her.

"Huh?" Jaylene was stunned for a moment before responding. She quickly said, "No need for dinner or anything. Please just drop me off at the nearest bus stop. I'll just take the public transport home."

"I'll take you home after dinner," Joseph insisted on his proposal. "As for the matter of you taking my first time and being responsible, I think we need to discuss it as soon as possible!"

".."

Jaylene was speechless again. Was he determined to cling to her?
