With Ruth's words, Sawyer showed an expression as if he had just been reminded. He said innocently, "Mom, this is the summons that Amelia asked the court to send me."
"What?" Ruth quickly picked up the summons from the ground and looked at them carefully. "Did she sue you?"
"Yes." Sawyer responded briefly. There was no need to say much about this kind of thing. As a mother, she would think of a lot of things on her own.
At this moment, what he was waiting for was Ruth's reaction. He had long known that Ruth was much more important than him in front of Ryan. If it were Ruth who spoke, the things he planned might succeed.
The development of the matter was just as Sawyer had hoped. Ruth held up the summons in her hand and said to Ryan with an unclear expression, "Look, when you were still angry at your son, Miss Amelia Ramsay had already sued Sawyer to court! By the way, do you know about this?"
Ryan took the summons from her and said, "I don't know. You know that Amelia refuses to see me."
After Ruth retracted her doubtful eyes, she said, "In my opinion, you don't have to worry about Miss Amelia Ramsay's loss at all. She is a very smart woman. She knows how to get justice for herself."
Perhaps it was because of her stance, Ryan somehow heard a hint of sarcasm from her words, as if she was saying that Amelia was good at scheming.
But he thought that his wife was not such a person, so he regarded it as a kind of compliment. "Amelia is indeed a smart child. Otherwise, how could she escape from this brat?"
After hearing this, Ruth shook her head and smiled bitterly. "I thought Miss Amelia Ramsay and I were friends after this period of visit. I didn't expect that she would sue
Sawyer. I was really caught off guard!"
Ryan knew his daughter's temper very well. "Amelia has always been like this. She only supports the righteous side."
Ruth didn’t beat around the bush. "So, what are you going to do now? Do you want Miss Amelia Ramsay to sue Sawyer or help him to avoid this?"
After what Ruth had done, Ryan couldn't be bothered to speak his mind. He said, "I'll help."
"Who are you helping? The host or Miss Amelia Ramsay?" Ruth insisted on getting an answer from him.
Ryan looked conflicted.
If he helped his son, his daughter would undoubtedly be hurt again. He owed his daughter so many years of fatherly love. How could he continue to help the wicked?
But if he helped her daughter, his wife would be sad and disappointed. In this matter, he had also caused immeasurable harm to her. If she did not agree, his conscience would also be condemned.
Seeing that they were in a stalemate again, Sawyer added fuel to the fire. "Mom, don't force dad. He has got a precious daughter for nothing and he's overjoyed. I have never been living up to hid expectations. He wants to give upon me and keep his daughter safe. There is no problem at all."
Hearing this, Ruth frowned slightly. She quarreled with her husband because she felt sorry for her son. But it didn't mean that she lost her mind along with reason.
After calming down a little, she could tell that her son was deliberately provoking her. She had fallen into his trap once, and it was impossible for her to be fooled again in a short period of time. So, she said, "Sawyer, stop talking so much."
After a moment of hesitation, Sawyer lowered his eyes and said, "Yes."
"Mrs. Quartley, it's no use knowing him. Your son kidnapped Sir Hopper's sister- in- law, and..." The police originally wanted to say that Sawyer held a drug trafficking party and sold weapons, but when he thought that they didn't have enough evidence, he gave up. "In short, you'd better give up. I'll send the two of you out now, please."
There was no room for discussion!
The corner of Ruth's mouth trembled slightly. She had always been kind- hearted, so she could not say anything to stir up trouble. However, she was not willing to leave just like that. As a result, she froze there.
In the end, Ryan opened his mouth and said, "Ruth, the policeman is only following the rules. Don't make things difficult for him. Let's go back first."
"...Yes."

On the way back to the Home of Quartley, Ruth kept calling her friends to ask if they had reliable lawyers to introduce her. Ryan crossed his arms and remained silent all the way. The couple had nothing to say. When they got home, Ruth said, "Hurry up and help to find some powerful lawyers for Sawyer. I'm afraid that if it's too late, Patrick will hire all of them."
Ryan put down his hand that was rubbing his nose and replied in a deep voice, "I got it."
At this moment, Safa walked over to them carefully with tea in her hand. "Old Master, Madam, you're back?"
Hearing this, Ruth was stunned and then looked at her unhappily. "Why are you everywhere?"
