HIS REGRET (Ex-Husband wants Me Back) novel Chapter 573

Chapter 573

All of them watched carefully as the news unfolded.

On the television, Harold tried to turn his head and say something when one of his former subordinates spoke to the press. But no one defended him. No one remained silent to protect him.

They spoke openly, sticking to the facts. Fear was evident on their faces-fear, and caution. As if someone, somewhere, was watching them. And because of that, no one was loyal to Harold anymore. Not the way they once had been.

The reporter spoke again.

“With the growing number of testimonies, police have confirmed that the case file will be expanded. Allegations now include abuse of authority, manipulation of specific incidents, the staging of an accident that resulted in a fatality, conspiracy, and coercion of multiple parties. Additional evidence related to other serious crimes is still being investigated.”

Harold had to be forced into the detention vehicle after he began resisting, shouting as reporters revealed more of the facts.

“That’s not true! Don’t make things up!” he snapped angrily.

“You can say whatever you want at the police station,” one of the officers guarding him replied firmly.

“I won’t stay silent! Just wait! All of you will pay for this!” 1

His voice rang out, desperate and strained. Moments later, the door slammed shut, and the vehicle pulled away. The reporter continued speaking, and it was clear that Harold’s arrest would dominate the headlines for days to

come.

even longer.

rties were involved now-including the Callister and Miller families. Harold had been the

d behind the chain of events that had struck both families. After everything he had done, there was on for them to let him off easily.

Silence settled over the room for a few seconds. Daven spoke first, his voice low.

“This is really over.”

Chris nodded. “There’s nothing left for him to control.”

Nathan added, “Public opinion has already turned. The legal system is moving. He has no room left to negotiate.”

Arsen glanced at Richard. “With that many witnesses, their legal position will be extremely weak.”

Cale finally spoke. “And this is only the beginning.” His tone was quiet, but firm. “Richard.”

Everyone’s attention shifted to him.

“We move to the final stage.”

Richard nodded without asking questions. “I’ve already prepared the list.”

Cale continued, “Make sure everyone involved is assigned legal counsel from firms affiliated with us.”

Nathan frowned slightly. “So they can be controlled?”

“Not just controlled, Dad,” Cale replied calmly. “So they don’t have any opportunity to protect each other.”

Richard added in a professional tone, “With coordinated representation, every statement will align. There won’t be any private agreements between them. No sudden changes in testimony once the legal process begins. That keeps the entire position firmly in our favor.”

He paused briefly.

“It also ensures they’ll be facing long prison sentences.”

Arsen nodded slowly. “And it will strengthen every charge we’re bringing against them.”

Cale turned his eyes back to the screen.

“If they want to cooperate,” he said quietly, “they’ll have to give us everything they know.”

“No exceptions.”

Richard made a brief note. “I’ll contact them today.”

On the television, the footage returned to Harold as he was being placed into the detention vehicle. Camera flashes burst without pause, and updates rolled in one after another. SunCity had been shaken by news that there was nothing short of explosive.

“Thank you, Cale.”

Cale only gave a faint smirk without looking at him. His attention remained on the screen, which was still cycling through reports about the arrests of Selena, Noel, and Harold.

“I just made sure everything went back to where it belonged.”
