Spoiled by Mr Russell (Lily Christian and Alexander) novel Chapter 716

Chapter 716

"I’m sure you know there’s an auction event tomorrow night, and I need a gown for that.If I didn’t go shopping today, I wouldn’t have enough time to get it," Eloise said as she took the cup of tea handed to her by the housekeeper.

She blew into the cup and took a sip while glancing briefly at her husband.

"What thief? That's Elizabeth..."

He paused as if realizing that saying this name out loud at home would only cause a problem.

Even though he wanted to bring Elizabeth back as soon as possible, he needed to take it slow.

Since he could bring his son back, he knew Eloise would make a scene if he brought Damian’s mother home, too.

If word got out, it would only affect their family and the company’s reputation.

"Fine, fine.I forgot that Arianna had another card with her."

Joseph waved and turned to Arianna.He extended his hand toward her, "Arianna, give me your card."

"Why?" Arianna asked wide-eyed, obviously confused by his request.

"Since your mother froze all our cards, mine is unusable, too.Just give me your card.I need it urgently," he said.

Arianna stood up in confusion as her eyes gleamed, "Mother had only asked the bank to freeze her sub-card.Your main card wouldn’t be affected."

"Of course, it would be affected.Besides, there’s something else I need my card for.Why can’t you just give me your card? Are you not even willing to lend me some money now, or you’re not willing to listen to me anymore?"Joseph remarked angrily as his face darkened.Arianna could no longer reject him since he was annoyed.She removed her card from her bag unwillingly.

"There’s a limit on my card.It’s not that I don’t want to give it to you, but I don’t think it will be sufficient for you."

"Enough with the excuses.Don’t you think I’m aware of your salary? It’s not like I'm asking you for money.I’m just asking you to lend me your card for now.Why are you acting like a scrooge? I'll return your card and the money I spent when my card is working again."
