Ryan, who knew the truth of what had happened back then, couldn't hold back his anger. "Safa, you're too vicious!"
"No matter how vicious I am, I gave birth to a son for you, didn't I? It's better than her. She only gave birth to a daughter for you!"
Ryan was so angry that he laughed. "I can tell you clearly that even if Ruth and I didn't have a child, I wouldn't want you to give birth to a son for me!"
His words gave Safa a great blow. "Is the child your wife gave birth to that important?"
"Yes, it's very important!" Ryan replied without hesitation. "I'm willing to have children with her because I love her. But you and I are different. How can you expect me to love your child?"
Hearing this, Ruth, who had been in a trance, trembled slightly.
Safa said angrily, "You said that you don't love my child, but didn't you treat Sawyer as your only son? Ryan, Ruth, you must be in a dilemma right now, right?"
"Even if you know that Sawyer is my son, you have invested so much feelings for him before. Can you take it back just like that? I can guarantee that you are in the same mood as me now, right?"
Ryan and his wife couldn't retort.
In this regard, Safa trembled with laughter. "I have been looking forward to seeing your expressions today for a long time. Originally, I wanted to say it in her ear when Ruth is about to die. I want her to die with a grievance! But..."
Safa looked down at Sawyer with tears streaming down her face. "Who would have thought that this would happen today?"
Ryan clenched his fists. Just as the woman had said, Sawyer had been his son for more than 20 years. Even if he knew that he was an illegitimate child now, so what? Would he be able to take back the feelings and painstaking efforts he had put in?
As for Ruth, her pain was beyond words. At least, Sawyer was Ryan's son. But what about her? Who was she?
Not only did she lose Amelia, who was very likely to be her daughter, but she also cursed her just now!
She said, "Why didn't Amelia die instead of her son?"
How could she say something like that that would incur the wrath of heaven?
Seeing that the couple seemed to have aged a lot, Safa said painfully and happily, "Now tell me, do you think I am qualified to stay here to see Sawyer off?"
Ryan's blood was boiling. "Even if you're the birth mother of Sawyer, you're so vicious that you don't deserve to be a mother at all! So, don't let us see your hypocritical face again, and don't tarnish Sawyer's path of reincarnation!"
"Do you mean that I don't even have the right to send Sawyer off?"
"Yes, he had always regarded Ruth as his biological mother. He respected and loved her. Although they are not related to each other, they were close. As for you, you should know your position very well. You are just a nanny to Sawyer."
These words made Ruth cry again. Compared to being filial to Ryan, Sawyer was more filial to her.
Perhaps, in the eyes of others, he was a murderous demon, but in her heart, he had always been very excellent.
As a result, despite knowing that he was guilty, she still tried her best to protect him and asked a lawyer to defend his crime...
"Ryan, you're wrong!" Safa didn't think that she was just a nanny. "Sawyer has long since treated me as one of his own people. Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought me along with him when we escaped the jail!"
"That's just his doing!" Ryan broke her fantasy. "Do you think you're very capable that you managed to fool around with our family? Have you ever thought that you'd lose the right to be called 'mother' from the moment you exchanged the lives of the two children?
Owen sped up to grab her and covered her mouth with his hand so that she wouldn't talk nonsense when she went out.
Then, he said to Ryan and his wife, "I'll persuade the families of the victims outside to leave. You should settle the funeral as soon as possible. If you're late, there will be a bigger riot. I can't do anything about it."
Ryan nodded and said gratefully, "I'll have to thank you another day for what happened today!"
"You're welcome." Since the other party was Amelia's parents, he had to do his best.
Seeing Owen come out of the mourning hall, the people outside stood up from their chairs one after another. Several policemen were scattered around them so that they could stop the conflict between the two sides at anytime.
"Sir Hopper, are you...?" The crowd could not help but ask curiously when they saw Owen holding Safa with one hand and covering Safa's mouth with the other.
Owen said with ease, "Oh, she is a criminal who has just been arrested by the police. Because she used to be a servant of the Home of Quartley, she asked us to take her to see her master for the last time. Now she is a little out of control. In order to prevent her from hurting others, I can only take this kind of measure."
Hearing this, everyone understood. After all, Safa was wearing handcuffs. It was obvious that she had committed a crime.
Owen continued, "Everyone, I have a request."
The leader said, "Sir Hopper, please go ahead."
"Today, for my sake, let's get out of here. As the police, we have no choice but to meddle in your trouble here, but I understand your feelings very well. I don't want to take any measures against you, so let's take a step back. If you leave, we'll pretend that nothing happened today. What do you think?"
After a period of calm, the family members of the victims were no longer so aggressive. Because they knew that the police would not let it go so easily. Even if this person was Owen, it would not be possible.
