A Beauty With Multiple Masks 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. If nothing else, telling her the truth now will make things easier for her. Even if she were to pass out, this is the best place to do so.

Unexpectedly though, the old lady took it quite well.

“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?”

“Not at all. Caleb needs some time with his medication before we can move out anyway, so rest up. I’ll have the nurses check in on you.” With that, Arielle turned around and left with Carter to give the elderly woman some time to rest.

On the other side, the press conference at Grandview Hotel was already packed with people.

Soir Coffee was all over the internet, and netizens could not stop talking about it online.

That was why Vinson decided to have Soir Coffee’s and the Nightshire Group’s official webpage announce the press conference held at Grandview.

As CEO of the Nightshire Group, Vinson planned to make an official statement at the press conference, addressing the Soir Coffee incident.

The comments online had nothing good to say about Soir Coffee, and the number of people cursing the establishment was growing like bacteria.

There were also some who refrained from foul mouthing but demanded that Soir Coffee be closed down immediately. On top of that, the establishment was requested to compensate all their customers.

The incident was so controversial that even the students at Jadeborough University were discussing it.

Wendy had just returned to her classroom after lunch when she overheard her classmates’ conversation.

“Have you seen the news online? Hundreds were sent to the hospital after drinking the coffee at Soir Coffee. I heard some even died soon after. How horrible!”

“Yeah, I have. One of them was even my high school classmate. I think he also enrolled at Jadeborough University, just not our preparatory class.”

“Wow, that’s unfortunate of him.”

“Too bad. He was a pretty cool guy. This is all Soir Coffee’s fault! How the hell did they even get the license to operate anyway? They even said that their goal is to be the world’s largest chain of coffeehouses. I guess that’s about to go up in smoke now.”
