Chapter 612
Eloise asked calmly after she had digested this piece of information.
“It’s not difficult to find Nathaniel. He was in a difficult situation. It’s inconvenient for you too. Otherwise,
you could’ve found Nathaniel earlier. I didn’t tell you because, at that moment, he was in a bad
situation. You’re aware that many people were looking for him then. I didn’t tell
you to reduce the risk as much as possible for people to find him. You’re not angry, right?” She looked
at her mother playfully, sticking out her tongue.
Hearing her words, Eloise could not bear to blame her. She was relieved to see her son safe and
sound. Moreover, what Arianna said made sense.
At the time, Nathaniel’s situation was troublesome and awkward, and there was nothing wrong with
reducing unnecessary contact.

A long time ago, Eloise had thought about her daughter’s reaction if one day she told Arianna that she
had a half–brother.
Eloise thought that she might reject and push him away. She even thought about how to persuade her
to accept him. But Eloise had never expected that Arianna would have known for a long time. Even
now, Arianna called him brother like they had known each other for a long. time. She did not look
unhappy with the news.
“Angry? Why should I be angry? I know you have your reasons not to tell me.” She shrugged. ” How
could I not be happy knowing I have an older brother!”
Looking at Nathaniel, she smiled happily.
Nathaniel also looked down at her and smiled dotingly.

Eloise’s depressed heart finally felt comforted looking at them. “Ari… Then how do you about that
out…” After a pause, she stopped as she was faintly worried.
If Arianna could accept a half–older brother, would she also accept that half–younger brother?
Arianna dropped Nathaniel’s hand and followed her mother to the sofa. She snuggled into her mother’s
arms and asked, “Mom, you mean the outsider?”
“How could he compare to my brother? Nathaniel was born before you and dad got together. We’re
family by blood. That woman destroyed our family and tried to steal dad.
away. Dad cheated on you in your marriage. That was wrong of him to you, to our family. I will not
admit that outsider as my family!”
Eloise suddenly felt comforted in her heart hearing what Arianna said. It also sounded reasonable.
That was right! Nathaniel was born before she and Joseph were together. She was not unfaithful to
him. She was only hiding secrets, but that outsider was different! Now he even joined the family, trying

“Ari, I feel assured that you have the same thought as me!” Eloise patted her hand as if she had found
an ally.
Arianna nodded vigorously. “Of course, I’ll stand by your side! It was weird of dad bringing that outsider
home. It was even weirder of Uncle Derrick to say that it was dad’s choice, and he can’t do anything
about it.”
“What?! Derrick said that?!”
It had been bothering her for quite some time. However, she was undecided about whether or not to
share this information with Derrick. She certainly did not expect Derrick to react like this.
“Yeah, Uncle Derrick said it himself. He doesn’t care. Mom, if we don’t work together soon, we’d be
forced to leave the Tanner family!” She grabbed Eloise’s hand and gritted her teeth. while saying.
Eloise’s heart skipped a beat. Arianna’s words hit her sore spot.
