Chapter 696

"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 glass window calmly.

The woman inside was still happily picking things, completely unaware of what was happening outside.



Arianna was still talking on the phone, "Yes, this is the ID number.Yes, that's the correct phone
number.All right, I'm sorry for the trouble.Thank you so much!"

Then, she hung up the phone and returned it to her mother.

"Mom, let's wait and watch the show!"

The two found a seat on the side and sat leisurely across the street.

There were a few potted plants around them, blocking them from anyone's view from across the street.

After some time, Elizabeth seemed to have made her choice and was about to settle the bill.She raised
her hand casually with a card between her fingers.

Although Eloise already knew what would happen, she couldn't help but tighten her fists when she saw
her husband's credit card being waved around.She clenched her teeth angrily, 'That b*tch!"

Inside the store, the shopping assistant respectfully took the card and left to check out her items.

However, he returned a few minutes later and seemed to whisper something to Elizabeth.She took the
card back and gave him another one.

Then...

What happened next was just as expected.

None of the cards would go through.

After a few more tries, onlookers could tell that the shop assistant was less friendly than before.

Meanwhile, Elizabeth was furious.She shot up, slammed on the table, and yelled.



Although Eloise couldn't hear what was going on inside, seeing Elizabeth like this gave her a sense of
satisfaction.

It seemed like Elizabeth was running out of ideas as she paced back and forth a few times with one
hand on her waist while dialing for someone with the other.

Arianna, next to Eloise, whispered, "Mom, Dad may call you in a bit."

Elizabeth was clearly calling Joseph.

The cards were all frozen, so he would be the first person that came to her mind.

Eloise's eyes were fixated on the scene in the store as a smirk appeared on her face.

"Let him! I'll be waiting!"

Seeing her mother's smirk, Arianna raised her eyebrows.

It seemed like her powerful mother was back.
