Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me novel Chapter 576

Chapter 576

The son’s face got paler and paler as Arielle went on.

By the time Arielle was done, he was completely drained of colors and covered in cold sweats.

The old lady was shocked to hear the truth at first, but then she refused to believe it. I don’t believe a single word this woman is telling me! Why would my son hurt his own brother?

However, she was convinced otherwise after turning to see how pale her son was.

“You… It’s true, isn’t it? You really did try to kill your brother, didn’t you?” stuttered the old lady.

“No, I didn’t do anything like that! You have to trust me, Mom. Don’t listen to them. They must be trying to blame me because they couldn’t come up with a solution. Every word that came out of that woman is a lie!” The man started accusing Arielle and the others defensively.

Still, as his mother, the old lady could easily tell if he was lying, and the look on his face was enough to confirm her worst fear.

Angry and disappointed at her son, the old lady could not help but wonder how her children ended up that way.

“Do you still think it was unreasonable of me to have him beat up?” inquired Arielle at the right timing.

The old lady slowly rose without responding as if she did not hear a word Arielle said.

With a deadpan expression on the old lady’s face, no one could tell what was going through her mind.

Then, her face started to turn pale as well. It was as if she suddenly had trouble breathing.

Seeing how devastated the old lady was, Arielle stepped forward to pat the elderly woman comfortingly on the back.

Arielle knew doing that would help the old lady calm down, and as expected, she managed to help the elderly woman relax and breathe properly again.

The son then decided to justify his actions since he could no longer hide the truth. “I only did it to help him. Do you have any idea how much it costs to treat his condition? This is the only way to get enough money to help him. I did it for him!”

“The end does not justify the means. So what if you manage to keep your brother alive? What you did was wrong. I’d rather he die than be treated with your dirty money!” rebuked the old lady indignantly.

Her strong moral compass and firm resolution were more than enough to impress Arielle, but not the son, who shook his head in response. “You don’t know what you’re saying. You must’ve completely lost your mind. Everything I did, I did it for our family!”

“Do you actually believe that?” Carter scoffed at the man before continuing, “I think you’re only capable of thinking for yourself. From what I’ve gathered, you gambled away ten million in a casino last month and lost all the money Vin gave you. Is that how much your brother’s life is worth to you?”

“How dare you poke your nose into my business!” roared the man pulsing with rage.

Even more infuriated than before, the old lady raised her hand and tried to slap some sense into her son, but he would not have it.

The man pushed his mother away before making a break for it.
