His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)

Chapter 493

“Now look what you’ve done!” Eloise glared at Joseph fiercely and quickly went upstairs.

Brittany followed Arianna back to the room. She looked at Arianna’s speechless appearance and

wanted to comfort her but did not know what to say. Brittany only stood behind Arianna, hoping it would

comfort her even a little.

On the contrary, Arianna turned to look at Brittany and smiled. Her smile looked far-stretched and

distressing, obviously a forced one. Arianna said, “I’m sorry you had to see that.”

"Don't say that!" Brittany stepped forward and hugged Arianna, suddenly feeling her friend was in a

more tragic situation than herself. Brittany could not get what she asked for, but Arianna had to face her

arguing parents.

Arianna’s father had a mistress and an illegitimate son. He was also patriarchal, as he would give his

family business to his illegitimate son rather than divide it with his daughter just because Arianna was a

girl.

Joseph wanted to continue arguing, but Eloise had already gone upstairs. She knocked on the door,

politely saying hello, and then pushing the door open to enter. The sight of Brittany slightly startled

Eloise as she probably did not expect someone else to be in her home.

Still, she quickly nodded to Brittany and smiled gently. “Oh, hey, Brittany.”

"Hello, Ms. Neville!" Brittany greeted obediently.

Eloise nodded, then walked straight to Arianna. She stood before Arianna and looked at her for two

seconds before opening her mouth, "Dear, why didn't you go out with Brittany?"

Eloise did not intend to say this when she came in but changed her mind when she saw Brittany.

"It's too cold outside, so I didn't want to go out," Arianna lightly said as she looked down at the floor.

"Yeah, it's getting colder these days. Your dad and I are busy with the company's affairs, so we don't

have time to take you shopping or anything. It stands to reason that you should buy more clothes for

yourself. Here." With that, Eloise took a card from her pocket and stuffed it into Arianna’s palm.

"Since Brittany is here, you should buy some new sweaters together. By the way, it would help if you

could tell me if there’s anything new at the stores since I don’t have time to go shopping these days.”

Eloise smiled as she spoke, as if Arianna had not caught her parents arguing.

Brittany admired Eloise’s ability to adapt and handle things well. She thought Eloise deserved to be in

charge of the Tanner family’s internal affairs.

"I’ll look for some clothes for Dad too. He never cares about his clothes."

Arianna’s words surprised Brittany. Brittany thought Arianna would lose her temper and cry after

hearing those words. Not only did Arianna remain calm, but she also wanted to buy clothes for her © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

father.

Eloise was stunned, then nodded smilingly. "That's fine. By the way, buy two more scarves. You can

claim more money from your father if there’s insufficient money in the card.”

"Then I’ll have to buy a few more," Arianna said half-jokingly.

"All right, go on." Eloise patted Arianna’s back smilingly.

After tidying up a bit, Brittany followed Arianna downstairs. Joseph was sitting downstairs smoking a

cigarette when Arianna ran over and hugged his neck, "Dad, I'm going to buy you some clothes and

two more scarves. You’ll have to reimburse me if there’s not enough cash on your card!"

Joseph turned around with a smile, "Okay, sure thing! I’ll pay you back."
