After the trial, Florence couldn't wait to rush out of the audience's seats and hugged Amelia. "Great, sister-in-law! They deserve it. One of them is going to be in prison for twenty years, the other is going to be in prison for five years! We don't have to worry about them coming to harass you and my second brother anymore!"
That's right. Because Sawyer and Sissi had accused each other, and Patrick asked Alyssa to add fuel to the fire, the judge finally came to the conclusion that this was a vicious kidnapping case!
In addition, Sawyer's defense attorney lied in court. He tried to muddle through the matter for Sawyer's sake, which made it even worse. They had to punish Sawyer severely!
As for Sissi, from the very beginning, she was a witness. It was ridiculous that she had become a suspect like Sawyer in the end!
However, seeing that she had spoken of Amelia's whereabouts in time, it could be considered that she had made up for her mistake. As such, she was imprisoned for five years!
Both the Ramsay family and the Hopper family were very satisfied with this.
As for Ruth, she subconsciously picked up Abner, who was sitting on her lap, and chased after Sawyer when she saw that he was about to be taken away by the prison guards. After thinking for a while, Safa, who was sitting in the back row, also plucked up the courage to follow her.
Seeing this, Kaiden asked for Ryan's opinion, "Mr. Quartley, shall we go over as well?"
Ryan shook his head gently. "You go ahead."
Kaiden gritted its teeth and chased after them. No matter what, Sawyer was still his cousin!
In the blink of an eye, there was only Ryan left in the audience's seats. He wasn't surprised or angry at the result of the trial at all. At least... Patrick didn't take Sawyer's life!
Now, he only hoped that Sawyer could reflect on his mistakes in prison and change. Wasn't it just 20 years? They would wait for him to come out!
At the same time—
Seeing that the family members of the defendant rushed over, one of the prison guards who escorted Sawyer reached out to stop them and asked coldly, "What do you want?"
Ruth took a deep breath and said as politely as possible, "I, I just want to see my son and say a few words to him."
The prison guard said without hesitation, "No, no! Take him away!"
At this time, Kaiden, who had caught up from behind, said, "Police officer, please give us some time. I'm working in Roxxon Corporation. You know the details."
Hearing this, the prison guard finally relaxed and said, "Then you should hurry up"
Kaiden nodded at them. "Okay, thank you."
Without the prison guard's obstruction, Ruth immediately took a few steps forward and said to Sawyer, "Sawyer, you haven't seen Abner for a long time. Do you want to carry him?"
Sawyer reached out to carry Abner in silence, and the handcuffs on his hands made a series of crackling sounds.
Abner sat on his arm and looked at him without saying anything.
Sawyer cheered him up. "Why don't you call me dad?"
Abner:
Sawyer asked, "Are you still blaming me for kidnapping Amelia?"
Abner hesitated for a moment, but still called out, "Dad."
Ruth and the others on the side breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mm." There was finally a hint of joy on Sawyer's face. He then put Abner back to the ground and said, "You are a boy. Don't be so delicate."
"Okay, dad,” Abner replied.
After a while, Sissi was also escorted by the prison guard from the witness stand and passed by Ruth and the others.
Safa was the first to glare at her. "Sissi! Mr. Quartley loves you so much. Why did you betray him?"
Sissi rolled her eyes slightly. After looking at her, she replied, "He stopped loving me a long time ago. I really don't love him very much too. It's just two lonely people warming each other. Don't take it seriously."
Seeing that she was not guilty at all, Safa was even angrier. "Bah, Mr. Quartley is really blind!"
"If he wasn't blind, he wouldn't have been used so thoroughly by Amelia." After saying sarcastically, Sissi looked down at Abner.
Abner looked back at her with no emotion, which broke Sissi's last glimmer of hope.
She suddenly felt that her life was a failure. Her ex- husband threatened her and her parents didn't want her. Patrick and Sawyer only treated her as a chess piece in the game.
Her own son didn't want to recognize her and called her mother...

On the other side, Florence held Amelia's arm and said excitedly, "Sister- in- law, the b*tch finally got what she deserves. Let's go home quickly!"
"Okay," Amelia replied with a smile. Just as she was about to leave, she saw Ryan walking towards them. It was obvious that he was here to look for her.
Amelia thought for a moment, then turned to Florence and said, "Florence, please wait for me for a while."
Florence did not like the Quartley family, so naturally, she did not like Ryan. However, since Amelia had spoken, she reluctantly responded with an "oh" and loosened her grip on Amelia's arm.
"Amelia," Ryan came up to her and said in a gentle voice, "It's all settled now."
