When Sergeant Chandler saw the situation, he knew that there was definitely something wrong, and he would not agree to Mrs. Sanders' request, so he immediately said: "Okay, no problem, but what you promised to say before must be do not forget."

As soon as he said this, Mrs. Lawrence's face turned pale instantly, but Mrs. Sanders remained expressionless: "Don't worry, I will never break my promise."

Sheriff Chandler nodded in satisfaction, nodded to several police officers, and walked out of the church, and Evan followed him out. Although Mrs. Sanders did not ask for it, Evan would still It's eye-catching.

No one knew what Mrs. Sanders and Mrs. Lawrence said. Evan and Sheriff Chandler stayed at the door of the church for about an hour, and Mrs. Sanders with a pale face came out. Follow Mrs. Lawrence, who has an even uglier face.

Mrs. Sanders barely looked at Mrs. Lawrence, turned around and walked to Mr. Chandler. Mr. Chandler hurriedly held her right hand, and relieved her with a worried expression.

Sergeant Chandler looked at Mrs. Sanders excitedly and said, "Madam, your promise should be fulfilled at this time."

Mrs. Sanders nodded and was about to open her mouth, but Mrs. Lawrence next to her suddenly said, "I did it."

Her language was cold and short, without a trace of emotion.

She is completely different from her usual dramatic self.

Sergeant Chandler was stunned for a moment: "What did you say?" He asked.

"I did it," Mrs. Lawrence looked at Sheriff Chandler with a calm expression in her eyes, "It was indeed me who killed John, Sheriff Chandler."

Sergeant Chandler smiled instantly, and ignored Mrs. Sanders, and walked directly to Mrs. Lawrence: "You have finally pleaded guilty. To be honest, the evidence I have is enough to convict Mrs. Lawrence." You have been sent to the gallows, but out of respect for your husband, I am still willing to let you admit it, so please forgive me, why would you do such a thing? John is your son!"

There was a momentary twitch on Mrs. Lawrence's face: "He is not my son."

Sheriff Chandler was shocked and looked at Mrs. Lawrence in surprise.

"He didn't follow my advice to get engaged to Miss Catherine, and he repeatedly violated my wishes. When I was arguing with him, I missed the result." Mrs. Lawrence finished speaking without any fluctuation in her ears, almost Looking a little cold, Mrs. Sanders had been crying and limply in Mr. Chandler's arms.

Sergeant Chandler looked at this weird scene, very cleverly said nothing, some secrets let it keep a secret posture, this town can no longer withstand any blows.

Sheriff Chandler finally left with the indifferent Mrs. Lawrence.

Looking at their backs, Evan looked a little incredulous: "She...how could..."

Mrs. Sanders sneered: "I have done too many bad things, and of course there will be a day when I can't bear it. God bless Delan Leer, and at the same time, he will not let this vicious woman go."

Evan looked back at Mrs. Sanders in some surprise. He had never seen Mrs. Sanders with such harsh words. It seemed that a mother's love for her child would indeed change a person.

Evan has long guessed about Mrs. Sanders' secrets, the weeping in front of the statue of the Virgin after the banquet at Lawrence's house, the illness she suffered after John's death, and the loss of vitality she said all made Evan suspicious. , the little John who is loved by the Lawrence couple is related to Mrs. Sanders. Now it seems that he is indeed right. Mrs. Sanders is the biological mother of Little John.

As for Mrs Lawrence...

Looking at the direction where Sheriff Chandler left, Evan sighed. If a woman knows that her husband has been unfaithful to her, she can do anything, even if it is the child she has raised for so long.

Mrs. Sanders was helped away by Mr. Chandler again, and Evan also turned and entered the church. Regarding today's events, he also had a lot of emotion in his heart.

The news of Mrs. Lawrence's guilty plea spread the next day, and the entire town of Delanele was plunged into a vortex of rumors. At this time, the Lawrence family stood on the cusp of the storm.

But at this time, Evan ushered in Mr. Lawrence's visit. He was no longer as glamorous as before, his clothes were a little wrinkled, and his hair, which was originally neat and shiny, had already turned gray. He looked as if he had aged ten years, and his eyes were filled with sorrow.

His originally short body was completely stooped at this time. He looked at Evan and said in a low voice: "Pastor Bruce, Sheriff Chandler has completely stopped seeing me now, can you tell him for me, Mary She...she..." Mr. Lawrence was almost speechless, he buried his face in his hands, big and big drops of muddy tears flowed down his fingers.

Evan looked at Mr. Lawrence and really didn't know what to say. Finally, he sighed and said in a low voice: "You go back first, Sheriff Chandler knows what to do."

Mr. Lawrence lowered his head and didn't look at Evan at all, but there was a faint sob.

Evan shut his mouth in embarrassment. After a long time, Mr. Lawrence finally raised his head, with a trace of tears on his face. He looked at Evan with some despair, and suddenly said: "God will not keep Mary away." , isn't it, Reverend Bruce?" Mary was Mrs. Laurence's name.

Evan hesitated slightly, and finally nodded: "Love God, will not reject any lost soul."

Mr. Lawrence seemed to have seized a chance, and held Evan's hands tightly: "Mr. Pastor, is what you said true?"

Evan frowned and wanted to pull his hand out, but in the end he did nothing and nodded.

Mr. Lawrence relaxed, nodded to Evan thankfully, and left the church.

Looking at the back of Mr. Lawrence, Evan frowned slightly, without saying a word.

After this matter was settled, Evan's eyes returned to Duke Wilson. What happened to him last time was too shocking. He had to know what Dr. Hester said to make Duke Wilson attitude has changed.

But before Evan could make a move, Dr. Hester invited Evan to his house the next morning.

Evan was very surprised. Although he had some contact with Dr. Hester before, he didn't have any deep friendship. Dr. Hester's sudden invitation made him have many thoughts in his heart.

Although Evan was full of thoughts, he still arrived at Dr. Hester's house on time. Dr. Hester was very happy with Evan's arrival. He even brought out silver tableware to entertain Evan.

Evan was a little flattered, and the bottle of red wine he brought casually seemed to be inferior.

Dr. Hester did not take offense at all, he welcomed Evan in with a very enthusiastic attitude, and Aliya also came out from the living room, dressed very formally, a light green skirt matched her white lips Red, more and more attractive.

Seeing Evan come in, Aliya saluted very reservedly, and Evan nodded with a smile. The relationship between the two is really gentle.

Dr. Hester stood aside and smiled very happily, he stretched out his hand to Evan: "Pastor Bruce, please sit down, it's great that you can come today, Alia has been looking forward to your arrival Well." After speaking, he felt something was wrong, and hurriedly added: "Of course, there is me."

Evan's original smile suddenly froze. He is not a stunned young man, and he can even be regarded as experienced in many battles. If Dr. Hester's words can be regarded as explicit, if he can't hear the implication, then he What a fool.

Alicia lowered her head with a flushed face, gently tugged at the corner of Dr. Hester's clothes, and said in a low voice, "Father, it's time to invite Pastor Bruce to dinner."

Dr. Hester became happier when he heard this: "Pastor Bruce, I'm really sorry, but what Alia said is right, please sit down, Alia has prepared a very sumptuous dinner today."

Evan looked at Dr. Hester and sat down slowly. Now he finally understood the meaning of Dr. Hester's weird smile at that time. He wanted to match himself and Alia.

Evan felt that this matter was absurd, but at the same time, he also felt a little bit ecstatic. Is this what Dr. Hester said to Duke Wilson that day?If this is the case, then Duke Wilson's insistence on letting him leave means that he does not agree with the matter between himself and Alia.

At this moment, Evan suddenly felt that Dr. Hester was really cute.

It can be seen that the dinner was carefully prepared. Dr. Hester kept trying to adjust the atmosphere between Evan and Alia, but Evan was obviously careless, and Alia didn't cooperate very much. Even Hester The doctor tried his best, but failed to make the relationship between the two people warm.

The last three people finished their meal without embarrassment. Dr. Hester sent Evan out of the house obviously a little annoyed, but Evan was full of relief. He walked briskly out of Dr. The plan quickly had new ideas.

Looking at today's situation, Aliya is somewhat reluctant. In fact, this is also normal. This book originally revolves around the relationship between Aliya and the Duke. From the beginning to the end, and looking at the expression of Aliya when facing the Duke a few times before, it can be seen that she probably has feelings for the Duke in her heart.

Evan walked in the night, with a cold smile on his mouth, across the cold night, like a lone traveler walking between black and white, he looked at the road ahead, but there was no fluctuation in his heart, Even if he has feelings, he will never give up the duke, his golden backer, no matter what.
