His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 820

Arianna did not know what to say to her father. How could he be so naive at his age? Joseph was still worried about his precious son even after he had made such a mess and asked her to handle it on his behalf.

If she were the one in trouble, her father would never have done so much or gotten so anxious for her sake. To him, a daughter was meant to sacrifice herself for the family.

“Get Mr. Hall to my office.” She pressed the intercom button and said it coldly.

…

Leaving his company's parking lot, Joseph saw a suspicious car follow him and let out a cold smile. After getting the chauffeur to drop him off in an alley, he walked to one end, made two turns, and hailed a cab to get to Elizabeth’s house.

He had to travel like a spy, but there was no other way.

When he opened the door and stepped into the house, he saw his precious son playing with his phone on the sofa. Seeing him like this, Joseph suddenly flared up.

“Look at yourself! How can you still be playing with your phone at a moment like this? Didn’t I tell you not to turn on your phone before I left? You think it’s a f*cking joke?” He was mad as h*ll.

‘I’ve been so busy working hard to save his *ss, and yet he’s here playing games!’ He became even angrier after seeing what was on Damian’s phone screen.

“Don’t blame me, Dad! I can’t go anywhere. If I don’t play games, I’ll go crazy!” Damian said irritably, already in a foul mood.

Joseph was fuming. “You only have yourself to blame! Look at what you’ve done. I’ve given you such an important project so you can make me proud, not lose face! Now it’s no longer a matter of losing face, but a huge problem!”

“Why have you been scolding him so much? How can you blame him? Did your wife turn you against your son? If you don’t like him, don’t come back and just disown him. Do you have to run him down like this?

“Oh, he couldn’t do it and disgraced you. Give your precious daughter everything you have instead of letting him join the business. See how much is left for the Tanner family after she marries, shall we?”

Holding a spatula, Elizabeth rushed out of her kitchen, fiercer than he was.

Due to the unique circumstances, they could not afford to let the maid come, and Elizabeth had to cook by herself. She had grown accustomed to an easy life and was already upset about having to cook all of a sudden. Joseph's reprimand of her son added to her annoyance.

“Please! When have I ever said such a thing? Can’t I tell him off for making a mistake? Damian is spoiled because of you!”

Elizabeth became enraged upon hearing his response and lunged forward to slap his face twice. “Yes, I’m the one who spoiled him because he’s mine and not yours! Joseph, the two of us have suffered so much because of you, and yet-"

“Enough!” No longer tolerating her tantrum, he flared up and shoved her off.

Not expecting him to do that, Elizabeth lost her balance and fell to the floor. Stunned for a moment, she stared at him and was about to cry when he said, “Stop it! I’m not in the mood.”
