Chapter 697
It didn't take long before Eloise's phone rang, and she did not even have to look to guess who it was.
Eloise’s face remained expressionless as she stared at the woman embarrassedly pacing across the street.
Then she slowly picked up the phone.
The moment she pressed the button, she seemed to have changed into a different person as she anxiously wailed, "Honey! My cards are gone! What should I do? What should I do?!"
The other end of the phone was silent.
Even Arianna, who was entirely in on this, could not help but secretly praise her mother when she saw how fast Eloise got into character.She did deserve to be the best actress.
Besides her expressions, even her voice sounded anxious and worried.
No one would think that she did anything.
"How did you lose your cards? Slow down and tell me.Which cards are missing?"
"I don't know! I lost all my cards and my wallet! It's all gone! There's no way.I know I brought them with me.How did it all disappear?!"
Although Eloise was sitting there motionlessly, her voice sounded like she was panicking with a hint of grievance.
Hearing her like this, Joseph held back the question he was about to ask.
"Don't worry, and just trace your steps.You're not usually careless; I'm sure you can find it.Did it fall inside the car? Where did you go?"
"I don't think it's in the car.I didn't get the driver to send me today.I-I don't know what's going on.Maybe it fell when I was in the toilet, or someone stole it while I was shopping?"
Eloise sounded like she wanted to cry.
"It's okay.I'm just worried that someone might have taken it and tried to swipe them.I'll freeze all the supplementary cards under your name.Don't worry; even if someone steals it, they can't use them.It's just a little trouble to report the loss and re-apply for new ones."
