Chapter 281 He Is My Husband
When Neera heard what Joanna had just said, she almost cackled.

Joanna was really trying to garner as much attention as she could, and she was not even trying to hide it.
Was she worried that Jean would not acknowledge her after all she had done?
It seemed that Joanna was a scheming woman.
Joanna was not able to change Jean’s mind, so she decided to make Wrenn side with her. Joanna was trying to present her likable side so that Wrenn would acknowledge her.
At the same time, Wrenn was someone who valued nostalgia. She immediately spoke up for Joanna.
“That’s right, Joanna is not really an outsider at all. She is an understanding girl who takes good care of me. With her by my side, I feel more relieved. I shouldn’t bother Neera about something so trivial either. She should just focus on treating you.”
Wrenn smiled amiably at Jean. “As long as you can fully recover, I would be more than happy. My situation is really nothing!”

Jean knew that Wrenn always cared for him. He pursed his lips and replied, “I am feeling alright lately. The sickness hasn’t relapsed lately, and I feel much more energized. My appetite has returned too.”
Wrenn knew that he was speaking the truth after inspecting the color of his face. She put on a satisfactory
smile.
“It’s great to hear that. I won’t need to worry too much about you anymore.”
Wrenn turned to Neera and thanked her.
“I really want to thank you for taking care of Jean all this while. Thank you for your hard work.”
Neera smiled wryly and replied, “You’re being too ceremonious. We are family, and Jean is my husband. I’m just doing what I am supposed to.”
When Joanna heard that, she froze.
What does Neera mean? Why is she addressing Jean’s mother as if she is talking to her own mother?
Also, she just said that Jean was her husband!
What did that mean? Could it be…?
A bad feeling rose in her. She found herself unable to breathe steadily, and she could not suppress her curiosity.
“Madam, what did she mean by that? Why is this woman addressing you like that? Are Mr. Beauvort and her…”
Wrenn looked quite surprised. She said, “What, you don’t know? Neera is my daughter–in–law now. She’s Jean’s wife.”
