His Versatile Gorgeous Wife novel Chapter 577

Stumbling backward, the old lady would have hit her head against the corner of the table had Arielle not broken her fall.

“Get him!” commanded Arielle after catching the elderly woman.

Before the man could even reach the door, the bodyguard swiftly caught up to him.

“Get your hands off of me! Let me go!” The man struggled with all his might to no avail.

With a wave of his hand, Carter gestured for the bodyguards to take their captive away.

“Now that you know the truth. Are you still planning to take legal action against us?” inquired Arielle.

“I admit that I was confused. You can do whatever you want with him; I won't stop you, but please help my dear Caleb! He's a good boy; he only did those things because of his brother. Please! I beg you! At least cure him before bringing him to justice.”

Arielle nodded before pulling down her face mask. “I know Caleb's a good person. He was just misguided, that's all. I'm sure he'll do alright with proper guidance. The truth is that I promised him to keep something from you. But after some careful considerations, I decided that you should know.”

Arielle knew that the old lady's eldest son would be sent to prison when the truth came out, so it was only a matter of time before the elderly woman found out.

“There's one more thing. I'm not going to hold Caleb responsible for what happened because I know he's a good person. However, the incident negatively impacted our reputation, so I'll need him to join our press conference. We'll need you by his side as well by then.”

“Sure. Whatever you need, we'll do what we can to help out.” The old lady nodded in agreement before sitting down and looking completely worn out. “Do you mind if I rest a while first?”
