When she saw the man standing outside the door with a birthday cake in his hand, she was completely taken aback!
Jaylene had never dreamt that she would run into Joseph Thompson, let alone in - Professor White's house.
Joseph Thompson smiled faintly at the woman standing dazed at the door, "Are you planning to block the entrance to my mother's house, not letting me in?"
It was then that Jaylene came to her senses. Just as she was moving aside, she heard Bella White calling from behind, "Who's there?"
When Bella saw Joseph Thompson carrying a cake into the house, her face fell, and she said unhappily, "Didn't I tell you that I don't celebrate birthdays?"
Joseph Thompson hurriedly put on a cheer, "Mom, when you were in the north, I didn't have the chance to celebrate your birthday because of the distance. Now that you're here in Bay City, so close, how could I not come?"
"I've already told you that I don't celebrate birthdays," Bella's face remained somewhat unhappy.
