CHAPTER 500

After this realization came into Arthur's mind, he grabbed Jake's arm and held him up from the ground in a panic. "Jake… I'm sorry…" His hand was shaking so badly that even Jake could feel it.

Seeing that, Madeline sighed and told Jake while looking at him, "Jake, your friend is a good person. I can intercede with Madison and Rowan for him and ask them to stop pursuing the case of Rowan's assault. As for your friend's sister, her actions are just too malicious. I really can't compromise my integrity to help you. I'm sorry…"

Jake shook his head and wanted to say something but felt that no words said were better. So, he kept his mouth shut again.

Meanwhile, Madeline looked at Madison and Rowan. "Madison. Rowan."

"You're right, Madeline. Your brother's friend is really a man. I can cut him some slack on the police's side. Let's just find a chance someday to spar," Madison said.

Then, he looked at his little brother. "Rowan?"

Obediently, Rowan replied, "Whatever you and Madeline say."

Although Jake felt that it was a little inappropriate, he still thanked them.

Even though Arthur was his parents' only son, he was not his grandfather's only grandson.

If he was imprisoned and left with a criminal record, he would most probably lose his position as an inheritor.

It was the best case that the Caesar brothers agreed to cut Arthur some slack, achieving what Jake wanted. As for them not forgiving Allison, that was something he desired as well.

Jake could swallow his pride and assist Arthur in pleading for mercy simply because he didn't want to hurt Arthur's feelings or give the impression that he didn't consider him a friend. Other than that, it was none of his business what would happen to Allison. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Not only did he not want to intercede for Allison, he desperately wanted her imprisoned. Since the Gaines Family can't educate their daughter, let the country do it then!

At this moment, Arthur had nothing to say. Jake had put down his pride for a young lady under the eyes of many, so Arthur couldn't ask for more.

He had already done everything he could, and as for the rest, fate would do its job.

"Arthur!" Allison rose from the ground and shouted his name in panic.

Hearing that, Arthur looked at her while feeling his heart aching. He blamed himself and his parents for not educating her well back then, ending with her choosing the wrong path and committing evil wrongdoings.

In the end, there was no such thing as a perfect crime. Not only did she not get what she wanted, she even encountered someone who would stand up for injustice.

If she had better luck and met those whose family was inferior to the Caesar Family, he would be able

to think of a way to settle things in private. Yet, the other party didn't look like they were ordinary people at all. They were unmoved by cajolery and coercion and insisted on getting the police involved.

There was nothing he could do about it, so he could only leave it to God. When Allison noticed that he wasn't talking, she became anxious. "Arthur…"

Just as she wanted to say something, sirens could already be heard from outside the window. Her expression changed at once, and her first reaction was to run away.

After just a few steps, the Hart Family's bodyguards reached out their hands to block her way.

"Go away! Get out of the way!" she cried while hitting the bodyguards.

They grabbed her arm and twisted it to the back, pressing her onto the ground.

"Arthur! Arthur!" The young lady panicked.

With a sigh, Arthur walked over to her and grabbed onto the bodyguard's arm. "Hey, play nice."

Hearing that, the bodyguards looked at Desmond, and Desmond nodded at them. With that, they let go of Allison's arm and took a few steps backward, but they were still eyeing her. If she dares to run, we'll press her down again!

They heard just now that Madeline's subordinates said that they would keep an eye on Allison and not let her leave. They were in Elsenburg, which was their territory, and Madeline's subordinates were from other places. Since they were the hosts, of course, they would need to take it slow.

"Arthur!" Allison grabbed Arthur's arm and shook him, panic crawling all over her face. "Help me, Arthur! I don't want to go to jail! No way I'm going to jail!"

However, Arthur just let her shake him without saying a word. It's not that he didn't want to help her, but he just didn't know how. In the blink of an eye, the officials arrived, after which they learned about what had happened. "Please come with us to the station for further investigation."

"No! Not in a million years!" Allison shouted.

She bought the aphrodisiac incense to use on Jake, and since Jake was her brother's best friend, he wouldn't expose her even if he found out that she used an aphrodisiac.

She was not concerned when she bought the aphrodisiac incense, as she just disguised herself a little. It would be fine if no one looked into it, but it would be easy to find out that it was her if someone were to investigate.

It will be the end of me if the police locate proof of me buying and using an aphrodisiac incense!

If she had better luck and met those whose family was inferior to the Caesar Family, he would be able to think of a way to settle things in private. Yet, the other party didn't look like they were ordinary people at all. They were unmoved by cajolery and coercion and insisted on getting the police involved.

"Sir." One of the police officers walked over with an evidence bag, and there was a tiny bit of ash inside it. "I found this."

The leading officer nodded. "Bring it back and run the exams."

"Save me, Arthur! Save me!" Allison cried hysterically.

Yet, Arthur could only look at her resignedly since there was nothing he could do.

He wouldn't have put things in such a bind if he had known this was going to happen. If he didn't beat Rowan up so badly but sat down and talked with him peacefully from the start, things might have turned out better.

Anyone would be provoked and wouldn't forgive his sister after he beat Rowan up like that.

All in all, his sister did this to herself.

Rowan didn't touch Allison, but she was the one who got the wrong person and plotted against the wrong person. It was all her fault, but she accused Rowan and made Arthur think that it was Rowan's fault, eventually causing him to beat Rowan up.

If Allison had told him the truth from the start, that it was not Rowan's fault, he would not have beaten Rowan up and would have left the club right away. With that, the other party wouldn't call the police, and everything after that wouldn't have happened.

After all, these were all just 'ifs'. It was already too late for everything.

Since the officer found the ash, it could be used as evidence. Allison was then abruptly placed in handcuffs by the officer.

The Caesar Family was wealthy and powerful, so Allison was pampered since she was young and was

never aggrieved. It was obvious that she had been in such a situation.

At this moment, she was petrified. How could she be arrested and sent to prison when she was the dignified young lady of the Caesar Family?

Nevertheless, the truth was that she was in handcuffs, and the police were bringing her with them. If this matter was spread and her friends and family found out about it, how would she be able to see any of them in the future?

"Help me, Arthur! Save me!" she roared while struggling. "I'm also the victim! I'm a girl, and he touched me!" I don't care what's going on! He touched me, and that's a fact!

The other party was a man, and she was a woman. She lost her innocence, but he didn't lose anything. How can he be so shameless and report to the police?

"You're not a girl in our eyes. You're just a mad dog!" Leigh looked at her contemptuously and patted Rowan's shoulder. "It's okay, Rowan. Just take tonight as the night you got bitten by a mad dog and let it slide. Don't let a mad dog leave you a trauma for women."
