The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) novel Chapter 546

Chapter 546

Perla wept hysterically and threatened to end it all. "Ritchie is my lifeblood. If he goes to jail, I might as well be dead. He doesn't have any kids, our family line ends with him."

Belinda suddenly raised her hand to slap Perla, "This is all your fault. You spoiled him. The Hawthorne family must've been cursed to have you as a daughter-in-law. Always siding with outsiders against your own family.

Look at Jolin, she raised two successful kids, while you can't even handle one. Ritchie's downfall is all on you.

Perla was stunned, too shocked to even cry. “I only have one son, and what's wrong with spoiling him?

Compared to all those spoiled rich kids causing trouble everywhere, Ritchie is a saint."

“Your stubbornness won't help here, go argue with the police, with the judge, see if they'll let Ritchie go free; Belinda scolded. She had another successful grandson to focus on and had given up on the prodigal Ritchie.

Aurelia had spoken to a special operations officer that Ritchie had been used as a pawn, unknowingly involved in criminal activities, he hadn't committed any violent crimes and wouldn't be sentenced harshly, parole was possible. However, she didn't plan on bailing him out. He needed a good lesson to turn his life around.

Perla was still not recognizing her mistakes. She sobbed, "Ritchie is my only son, and I was counting on him to take care of me when I'm old. If he's locked up, what will happen to me and Zack?"

"Maybe some hard labor will straighten him out, rid him of his vices. It's better than him running wild, hanging out with the worst of society, and ending up in a worse situation. Then it would be too late for your tears,"

Belinda advised.

Perla felt like banging her head against the wall, "Mom, you used to adore Ritchie. Why have you given up on him now? He is the first grandson of the Hawthorne family."
