Chapter 826
Thinking of what Stephanie said, Joseph became incensed.
‘Oh, Ari, you're so capable, aren’t you?"
His first thought was to head straight home.
Pulling over, he almost leaped out of the car and rushed inside the house.
"Arianna Tanner!"
Shouting her full name, he wanted her to give him an answer right away.
"What's the matter?"
Eloise came out from inside, holding a cup of freshly made lemon tea.
"She’s not home.Why are you so angry?"
"why? It’s all your fault that Ariana has become like this!"
When he did not see Arianna, he lost it and slapped Eloise.

face, and the cup she was holding shattered as it fell to the floor.
The slap was heavy, and Eloise’s face became swollen immediately.
Still, she did not cry or throw a tantrum and simply shot him an icy glare.
"What do you think you're doing?"
"I..."
After hitting her, Joseph grew calmer and felt sorry for a brief moment seeing her swollen face.
Having been married for so many years, he never hit her during quarrels.иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σмHowever, he
was in a rage today.
The feeling of regret didn’t last long.He turned and sat down on the sofa.
"Eloise, I’m telling you, if Arianna can’t give me a good explanation for what happened, this shall be the
end of our family."
This was a severe threat as he was truly angry.
If Arianna had tried to take over the company from Derrick, it meant that she was trying to wrestle
power from him behind his back.He never expected her to do such a thing.
If that was the case, then she could have something to do with the trouble Damian was facing.
Eloise snorted and threw him a mocking look.
"Why? Haven’t you already destroyed our family?"
Taken aback by her sneering tone, Joseph looked at her before averting his gaze.
"Stop talking like that as if I’ve done you wrong.You have indeed worked hard for the family, but I’ve
given you a life of luxury.
‘Yes, I cheated on you with Elizabeth, but it’s normal for a successful man to have several women.After
so many years, I only have you two, and I've tried my best to be fair! Even though Elizabeth deserves
better treatment, I’ve never brought her back home as I cared about how you feel."

Joseph poured his heart.
"I never wanted to hurt you and Arianna, and I’ve been great to her, but she...Do you have any idea
what she’s done behind my back? She went to ask for Derrick’s seal to take over the company! She
has backstabbed me and made mea target."
He poked his finger at his chest in anguish.
Seeing such a huge quarrel, the maids did not dare to clean up the mess, and one of them passed a
cold towel to Eloise.
Eloise took it and flung it away.
"Leave us!"
A maid nervously picked it up and left with the others.
Sitting down across Joseph, Eloise crossed her arms and legs.She stared coldly at him as if he was a
stranger.
"Fair?"
She let out a mirthless chuckle, "Joseph Tanner, do you really think you've been fair? Have you truly
been great to Ari?"
