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 wante

Arianna, hoping it would comfort her even a little.
On the contrary, Arianna turned to look at Brittany and smiled. Her smile looked far–

“Don‘t say that!” Brittany stepped forward

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

“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

“All riglit, go on.” Eloise patted Arianna‘s back smilingly. After tidying up a bit, Brittany followed Arianna d
