Chapter 726
It was just 10 million dollars.
What was 10 million to the Tanner Corporation? She would soon be the mother of its president, and
then Elizabeth could have anything she wanted.
On the contrary, Joseph did not look as happy as she was.
Before going out, he told her the budget should not exceed 6 million.
However, she was like a different person once she got there.
Elizabeth did not even look at him before calling out a 10 million dollar bid for a worthless necklace
without a second thought.
Joseph got to his feet with a dark expression.
Before he could leave, he was stopped by Elizabeth, who was beaming for the cameras.
"Congratulations, Mr.Tanner, for buying this necklace at a whopping 10 million dollars.Is it for the lady

Elizabeth chimed in before Joseph could even answer.
"Of course!"
She beamed as if she was the true Mrs.Tanner, completely forgetting her place.
"Ah, how do I address you, Miss? Are you Mr.Tanner's..."
The reporter trailed off as he looked at Joseph tentatively.
Joseph had no intention of staying any longer as he pursed his lips, but Elizabeth held his arm firmly.
She raised her hand, gently brushed away her stray hairs, and said with a smile, "Do I need to explain
who I am to Mr.Tanner?"
She smiled ambiguously.
Although the reporters knew, these things were never made public by wealthy families.
No matter how messed up their relationships were, they would keep it behind closed doors.
Despite that, this woman admitted their relationship openly, acting like they were married.
"There were rumors that the marriage between Mr.and Mrs.Tanner is in shambles.It looks like the
rumors are true? Are you and Mrs.Tanner divorced, or are you two still undergoing the procedures?"
Elizabeth was also keen on Joseph's answer as she turned toward him expectantly.
For years, she had wanted him to get a divorce, but there was no suitable opportunity.
Right now, she felt this was her chance.
She gave birth to his only son, who was slowly climbing his way up the corporate ladder of Tanner
Corporation.
Wasn't it only logical for him to make her the madame of the house? However, Joseph frowned at the
reporter's question and shut them down.
"No such thing!"
While he said this, he forcefully broke free from Elizabeth's grasp and continued, "My relationship with
my wife is fine.She's feeling a little under the weather today, so Ms.Olsen is here to accompany me.As

for this necklace, Ms.Olsen was only betting on it on behalf of my wife."
"Oh, I see!"
Realization suddenly hit the reporters.
Then, another question came to mind.
"Didn't Ms.Olsen says that this necklace was for her?"
"She was just pulling everyone's legs," Joseph answered, deadpan as he looked ahead.
Next to him, Elizabeth was stunned as she felt her whole body freeze.
She had never been so embarrassed or humiliated in her life.
Not only did Joseph deny their relationship in front of so many people, but his words were like a punch
to her face.
She felt that everyone around was laughing at her.
With her head hung, she turned around and pushed through the crowd, quickly running out.
Although Joseph frowned, he didn't chase after her.
"Ms.Olsen isn't feeling too well today, so don't take any pictures.My wife will be celebrating her birthday
next month, and the necklace will be her present.I hope you won't make a big deal out of this."
