After getting Ruth's understanding, Ryan turned around and continued to reprimand Sawyer. "You b*stard! Do you think I won't punish you just because you mentioned your mother? I'm telling you, the things you've done to Amelia are intolerable. Even if I slap you ten more times, it's considered light!"
Sawyer seemed to ask casually, "Is it justice that can't tolerate it, or you can't tolerate it?"
Ryan's expression turned even uglier. "What do you mean by that?"
Sawyer said, "Dad, don't worry about what I mean. Let me guess first. There are two possibilities why you and Mom haven't come to see me until now.."
One was that Sissi failed to deliver the message for me, so you didn't know that I was locked up here. The other was that Sissi sent the message for me, but you ignored me until now.
"Can you tell me now whether Sissi has contacted you or not?" He could better speculate about Sissi's current situation.
"What Sissi?" Upon hearing this name, Ryan's brows furrowed even more. "We've never seen her before, let alone found out about your whereabouts from her."
Ruth also said, "Yes, we just got the news that you were locked up here today from a police officer. It has nothing to do with Sissi."
Hearing that, Sawyer was lost in thought.
This conversation also made Ryan realize something. "I heard that Sissi went abroad with you, so I think she must have been locked up here like you. What's wrong? Her family didn't bail her out?"
"Dad, how can you be so sure that she was also caught?" Sawyer asked tentatively, "Did someone tell you? "
Ryan shook his head, indicating that no one had told him about Sissi's incident. He said his analysis, "Since you can take that woman abroad with you, I'm sure she knows about your kidnapping of Amelia.
It is even possible for her to be involved. No matter what, she is the one who didn't report the crime. It is understandable for the police to lock her up here.
In addition, you just asked me if she had told us that you were in jail. It can be seen that her situation is not much better than yours, but the crime is lighter than yours.
That's why you expect her to survive so that she can ask us for help. Am I right?"
"Pa, pa, pa." Sawyer raised his hand and clapped. "I really can't hide anything from you."
His words were tantamount to a tacit admission of Sissi's current situation. Ryan couldn't help but snort. "You're messing around with such a woman. No wonder you're getting worse and worse!"
Sawyer agreed with him. "Dad, you're right. I was sent to jail by her."
Ruth, who was standing aside, was surprised and shocked. She asked, "What? Did Sissi make you like this?"
Sawyer showed a bitter smile at the right time and looked very pitiful. "Mom, you don't know. If it weren't for her..."
Halfway through his sentence, he was interrupted by Ryan mercilessly. "Ruth, don't be fooled by him. Although Sissi isn't a good person, this kid isn't a good person either. It's not strange for them to fight amongst themselves!"
Instead of retorting Ryan's words. Sawyer took advantage of Ruth's words and said with a sigh, "Mom, do I really deserve what I have done? Do I deserve death?"
Ruth's heart skipped a beat when she heard that. She said hurriedly, "You're so young! Why do you say that?"
After all, she was a mother. Ruth turned her head and warned Ryan, "You're too much! Our son has been set up like this. You're not only not blaming that woman, but you're being sarcastic?"
She could no longer bear the sadness in her heart and blurted out, "Your daughter is a human being, but your son is not?"
"You!" Ryan didn't expect her to say something like this. He quickly looked around for fear of being heard by others.
He was not afraid that outsiders would know that Amelia was his illegitimate daughter, but he was afraid that Amelia would blame him when he knew that this matter was leaked out.
Ruth's words just reminded Sawyer that they had already known Amelia's background!
This was a lot easier for him. He had planned to let Sissi tell them about it. Now, even without Sissi, he had achieved his goal.
Next, he would turn the tables and let Ryan know who was in the wrong!
"It turns out that Dad has long known that Amelia is your daughter?"
As he spoke, Sawyer straightened his back. He was so tall that he had surpassed Ryan by more than one head!
When he was sitting before, he was like a poor person who was bullied and did not dare to fight back. Once he seized the opportunity, he would definitely bite his opponent back hard!
As expected, his questioning caused Ryan's eyes to waver.
Sawyer took another step forward. "Dad, don't you think you should give me an explanation before you teach me a lesson? "
