Chapter 764


    Eloise held her daughter''s hand and wanted to say something when she heard a car approaching from


    outside. Her face sank. "Your father is back."


    It did not take long for her words to fall as Joseph entered the house with a bag in his hand. He was

    stunned when he saw Eloise and Arianna sitting in the living room. "Ari, you''re home too,” he said,


    walking straight over. "Perfect. I have one for each of you."


    "What is it?" Arianna smiled, stood up, and took the bag from his hand. She opened it and nced


    inside. "Wow, perfume!"


    Seeing her surprised expression, Joseph smiled. “This is the first- ever perfume from ourpany, and


    we''ve sold out of them! I bought two bottles directly from the factory for you two to try.”


    His smug look annoyed Eloise. She knew Joseph was only happy that the product came from that little


    brat, not because it was thepany’s first-ever perfume. She felt unhappy inside and could not return


    a joyful expression to Joseph. Her gaze was indifferent as if the man before her was insignificant.


    “If I had known you''d buy it for us, I wouldn''t have bought one myself," Arianna looked remorseful as


    she put the bag down. Joseph was startled, “What? You bought one?"


    "Of course! It''s ourpany''s first perfume, and Damian is responsible for the entire project. It''s quite


    significant to us, so I had to buy one for myself!” Arianna responded, pointing to the perfume bottle.


    "Mom just tried it. It smells good, right, Mom?"


    Eloise understood Arianna’s intentions behind those words. Even if she was unhappy, she repliedzily,


    “Yes.”


    Joseph nced at his wife and knew how she felt. Of course, he knew she was unhappy about getting


    caught in the middle for so many years. He also knew he could not challenge her patience either. It


    would be best if she could coexist peacefully with


    Elizabeth if only that were possible.


    If Eloise did not mind, it would not matter what the media said about them.


    “Eloise, it''s no wonder that you smell so nice today," Joseph said smilingly, "By the way, howe


    you''re not wearing the sapphire ne?"


    "Haha," Eloise sneered and did not bother to pay much attention to him.


    After seeing everything thoroughly and thinking about it, Eloise no longer wanted to grasp his heart.


    What she needed to grasp instead were the shares she currently had and thepany''s assets and


    control.


    Her sneer embarrassed Joseph, but he had nowhere to bury his face.


    Arianna hurriedly said, "Dad, that sapphire ne is too precious. How could mom be willing to wear


    it? She kept it properly and said she''ll only wear it on important asions.


    "Really?" After looking at his wife''s reaction, Joseph was not so convinced by these words, but since


    Arianna had already exined on her behalf, he gave in and replied, "That''s true. Ten million is indeed


    expensive."


    Eloise nced at Joseph and said nothing.


    “Ari,e with me." Joseph pulled off his tie and walked to the home office, trying to ease the tension.


    Arianna winked at her mother and replied, "Coming!" Then she followed behind Joseph.
