Furthermore, Damian would treat Nathaniel as his enemy because the latter had a close relationship with Arianna. Damian planned to work his way through Tanner Corporation and finally take control of the entire company.Then he would bring his mother back to the Tanner family’s residence and include her in the family register. In the future, they would be the ones who lead the Tanner family.When it came to Arianna, Damian would financially provide for her and Eloise if he was in a good mood. If he were not, he would kick them out of the house.Damian could not accept how he and his mother had suffered for many years. Since he was born, he was someone that his parents were embarrassed by. However, Arianna and Eloise could enjoy their lives in the Tanner family’s residence. He believed he should be the one in charge of the entire family because he was the first son of their father.Nathaniel smiled faintly and got up to his feet. “You’re mistaken.”Then he walked toward Damian, lit
However, Damian became uneasy again when he recalled Nathaniel’s relationship with Arianna. “That’s not how things work. Even if they don’t support Uncle Derrick’s son, they will support my sister! Arianna has worked here for many years, so she has more knowledge about the company and its connections. Aren’t you one of her supporters…”“Stop right there!” Nathaniel motioned for him to stop and interjected, “I’m just Ms. Tanner’s subordinate. That doesn’t mean I support her and am on her team.”“You’re not?” Damian looked at him in confusion, not quite believing his words. “Back then, my sister assigned this project for you to manage. She would help you in your career, and I heard she recommended you to join the company. You’re telling me that you’re not on her team now. Are you sure about that?”“Haha!” Nathaniel laughed as if he had heard a funny joke but soon, he glanced at the door carefully, pretending to be afraid the people outside would hear them. Then he leaned closer to Dam
“Got it! I understand!” Nathaniel nodded fervently. Satisfied, Damian opened the door and left the office. Nathaniel’s smile faded slowly as he watched the door shut, his expression becoming unreadable.‘This brat is quite cautious! He doesn’t trust me completely yet, and there are still things he’s keeping from me! However, that scheming mind of his is nothing to me! The Tanner Family will be under my control one day!’…“Mom, aren’t you bored with staying at home all day? You should get out of the house and enjoy life more often. There will be an auction in a few days, so why don’t I bring you there? You can buy a few things you like.” Arianna chatted with her mother while they shopped in a store selling luxury goods.Eloise’s expression was much gloomier. In the past, she could make decisions because everything was still under control. Recently though, she felt her husband was growing increasingly distant from her.Joseph would always return home at night, no matter what. How
Arianna was taken aback and quickly denied it. "What?! Of course not! It's obvious that your fan planned this. Why would I do this? Besides-""Drop the act!" Eloise's gaze was fixated on Arianna as she shook her head. "Do you think I'm blind? That lady had been staring at us since we entered the door. It was only when you winked at her that she ran over. Even if she was my fan, would she have been so bold to ask for autographs and be so uncourteous? She even harassed the guests. My fans would know the rules. If it's true that you have nothing to do with this, this lady must be new and not know the rules around here!"After a pause, she continued, "Then again, her ID card doesn't belong to those of the newcomers. Ari, I know you're just being nice, but this is unnecessary. I'm already an old hag. There's no use for all these!" "I really can't win when it comes to you!" Arianna sighed, shaking her head. "I can't hide anything from you! Why are you letting yourself be in such a posi
"Mom, age must be catching up to you. Even if she uses dad's card, you’d need to accept the transaction!" With a smile, Arianna reached out her hand. "Mom, where's your phone?""What are you doing?" Elliot looked at her suspiciously as she pulled out her phone.Arianna took the phone and dialed a number. Then she put the phone to her ear and said, "Hello, I’m Joseph Tanner's wife. Yes, it's me, Mrs. Tanner. Here's the thing, I accidentally lost a few credit cards. I'm worried someone else might use it, so could you temporarily freeze all the supplementary cards under my husband's name?"Hearing this, Eloise looked at her daughter, wide-eyed and stunned.She must be getting slower! How had she not come up with this idea herself? She had been in countless soap operas, yet they were all in vain. Why didn't she put her knowledge on how to deal with mistresses to good use?At this moment, her anger instantly turned into joy. Eloise was no longer fuming as she continued to look at the g
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
The press conference was at seven in the evening.Alexander and Lily's plane arrived at three in the afternoon, and they were immediately on the move. Once they arrived, they did not return home and headed directly to the company to prepare.Although Jenny and George knew about this, it was a relatively significant matter this time. Therefore, the company did not need them, and the headquarters of La Beauté Group would handle it. All they could do now was worry on their own.Olivia immediately heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Lily and rushed to hug her. "You're back! You've only been away for a short time, yet so many things have happened. What the h*ll is going on? You worry me to death! In the recording, did you—"Jenny, who was beside Olivia, gently patted her shoulder, interrupting her. Then Jenny motioned for them to speak in the office. Once they entered the office, Jenny shut all the doors and windows. She even drew the blinds before asking, "What happened in that record
At half past six, the seats in the ballroom of a five-star hotel in Brown City were almost full. Other than media reporters, there were also renowned perfumers and newcomers from the perfumery industry. Anyone who had any relations to the perfumery world gathered here.After all, this incident caused an uproar and shook the entire perfume industry. Everyone wanted to come and see how Lily would explain herself. Everyone wanted to know if she would apologize for her wrongdoings or deny what she said in the recording.Alexander's car did not drive to the main entrance. Instead, he arranged to enter through the back. Then a bodyguard escorted him through the VIP passage to the lounge.His secretary had arrived earlier to organize everything. Once she heard Alexander coming, she quickly rushed over with a stack of papers. Although she managed to put on a calm face, her nervousness was seeping through."Mr. Russell," she called out as she pushed open the door. When she looked around an
