Chapter 492 “This is not just for the two of them. It‘s also for us! Think about it!” Joseph put his hands o
n his waist and looked serious. Standing upstairs, Brittany was a little embarrassed. After all, she seem
ed to be eavesdropping on Arianna‘s parents arguing. It seemed inappropriate for her to go downstairs.
She wanted to turn around and return to her room, but she was scared they would notice.
She looked at Arianna and saw her standing there without saying a word. She had no expression on he
r face and was holding the stair railing with both hands and grasping it tightly.
Brittany wanted to comfort her but did not know what to say. The two downstairs did not realize that the
re were other people in the house, and they were still arguing.
Eloise turned around, sat on the sofa, and snorted softly, “For us? Humph! Well said! To put it bluntly, it‘

for letting me know!”
“Look at you. How petty could
you be? You‘ve no idea what‘s going on. Arianna is a disappointment with no intention of running the fa
mily business. My brother still holds the entire corporation and refuses to relinquish
his power. It‘s my fault for not having a son and being unable to inherit the family business. Then again,
if you had given birth to a son, it wouldn‘t...”
Before he could finish his words, Eloise looked over resentfully. Joseph paused and did not continue.
“In the end, you‘re blaming me for not having a
son? Joseph, I‘ve been married to you for many years and managed this big family inside and out.
Do you think it‘s easy for me? The seniors at home are useless and a piece of sh*t. They depend on m
e to do everything. Can‘t you see how much I‘ve sacrificed for your family? Now you‘re blaming me
for not giving you a son? Suppose I did. Would you still find a b*tch to give you another one? Would an
ything stop you?”
Eloise slammed on the coffee table with a loud thud as if she wanted
to vent all the grievances she had accumulated over the years, “Have I bossed you for all these years?
You secretly bought a house for that bitch and a car for that little brat. You even hired him in your comp

him back to join us as a family?

Hearing the mention of her friend‘s name, Brittany turned her head and glanced in Arianna‘s direction.
Although she seemed calm, her lips were pursed into a line, and her hand gripped the railing even tight
er. It was as if her fingers were digging into the bars.
“Don‘t go there. This has nothing to do with Arianna. This is the matter between you and me. If you‘d ag
anything else,” Joseph waved his hand and said impatiently.
Eloise said with a sneer, “Why doesn‘t it matter? Is Arianna not your biological daughter? Is she not our

property in the future? How could she be in charge of our family business? Do you want our business to
Brittany was shocked by his words. Arianna‘s dad used to be very kind with his words. She did not expe

Brittany looked at Arianna again but found that she had loosened her grip on the railing and turned to go
