《Spoiled by Mr. Russell》全部章節：第 721 章 - 第 730 章

The man on the TV screen attracted Arianna’s focus, not because of how charming he looked or because of his audacity to retort to Lily. It was because he dared to say such a thing with so many people around, including Alexander.He was either too bold or confident that he was powerful enough not to fear Alexander. “That guy… Isn’t he…” Eloise narrowed her eyes, trailing off. The man on TV looked familiar to her. After all, she was a socialite with a broad network of connections. Just before she retired from acting, she got to know many people.When she married Joseph, she had her own circle of friends consisting of the wives of wealthy men, besides the people from the business industry whom she got in touch with from time to time. In comparison, she had met more people than Arianna ever did.“Mom, do you know that man?” Arianna excitedly asked when she noticed her mother seemed to recognize the man on the screen.Eloise could not name him right away. “He looks familiar, and I thi

Ruby City would hold a charity auction twice yearly where most items, ranging from jewelry to antiques, were donated anonymously. There were no restrictions when it came to the auctioned items.On such events, besides people who were here to build a reputation for themselves, some were here to coax their wives or lovers. Elizabeth had her eyes on one of the necklaces a long time ago. It was a tear-drop-shaped sapphire pendant surrounded by many small diamonds, making it look dazzling under the light.After being with Joseph for so many years, she naturally had no shortage of jewelry. However, Elizabeth's eyes burned with jealousy after seeing a big pink diamond necklace on Eloise the one time she attended an event with Joseph.Since then, Elizabeth had been bugging Joseph to get her a more fabulous necklace. Although he agreed, he could not find a suitable one and pushed this matter aside.However, this was a thorn in Elizabeth's heart. If she could not be "Mrs. Tanner," she would

Now, the price of the necklace had exceeded Joseph's budget. Elizabeth glanced at Joseph and saw that he was gently rubbing the bridge of his nose, looking a little troubled. She knew he did not want to spend any more money than this. "6.2 million, calling once, calling twice-" The bid manager waited for no man, and just as he was about to yell again, Elizabeth couldn't bear it and raised her paddle. "7 million!" She did not believe that anyone would follow her that far. The young man seemed to have been stunned and was silent. Just as Elizabeth thought she had won, he called out again, "7.2 million!" Just like before, the young man only raised another 200,000 dollars. At this moment, Elizabeth would love to rush up and fight him.'Is he doing this on purpose?!' However, she had no idea who he was, so why was he trying to go against her?Regardless of whether the necklace was worth that much, she was starting to worry if Joseph would even pay now that it had exceeded the

After rushing home, Elizabeth went berserk and began smashing and tearing everything in the house, including photos of her and Joseph.When Joseph entered the house, a mess met him. "Are you done?""No!" She howled hysterically and began to throw anything she could grab at him. "Get out! Get out! I don't want to see you!"Kicking away the trash on the ground, Joseph walked toward Elizabeth and stood there with a darkened expression. "I know you're angry that I embarrassed you in front of the media, but did you ever think of my reputation when you spoke?""How is it my fault?! How did I ruin your reputation? Did I scold you, trample all over you, or make you look bad in front of the reporters? Did you have to humiliate me like that in front of a crowd?!" Elizabeth trembled with anger. She never thought he would say such things in front of everyone."Yes, although you didn't scold me, you insinuated things." Joseph loosened his tie and crossed his arms angrily. "Did you forget where we w

Meanwhile, at the Tanner family residence, Eloise sat down and held an exquisite velvet box. The sapphire necklace that caused a commotion in the auction lay inside the box. However, there was no joy on her face.Arianna returned home and saw her staring at the box in a daze. She took off her coat and walked over for a closer look. She praised it, “What a beautiful necklace! Mom, let me put it on you!”“I don’t want to wear it!” Eloise pushed Arianna’s hand away and sighed. After all, the necklace was not something Joseph had bought for her. He only brought it back because he needed to save his reputation. She knew what had happened at the auction. She disliked it even more because she knew the story behind it and felt depressed.Joseph treated her well in the eyes of the public. He spent 10 million dollars to purchase a necklace for her, but…“Regardless of dad’s sincerity, this necklace belongs to you now, Mom. I read the news about the auction too. Dad said it was for you in fro
