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

As soon as he said these words, Mrs. Lawrence's face turned pale in an instant, but Mrs. Sanders remained expressionless: "Don't worry, I will never break my word."

Sheriff Chandler nodded with 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 Eye-catching.

No one knows what Mrs. Sanders and Mrs. Lawrence said. Evan and Sheriff Chandler stayed at the church door for about an hour, and Mrs. Sanders, who was pale, came out. Followed by Mrs. Lawrence, whose face was even more ugly.

Mrs. Sanders barely glanced at Mrs. Lawrence, turned around and walked to Mr. Chandler's side. Mr. Chandler hurriedly held her right hand and took care of her with a worried look.

Sheriff Chandler looked at Mrs Sanders excitedly and said, "Madam, what you promised should be fulfilled at this time."

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

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

She was completely different from the usual dramatic she.

Sheriff Chandler was stunned for a while: "What did you say?" he asked.

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

Sheriff Chandler instantly showed a smile on his face, ignoring Mrs. Sanders, and went directly to Mrs. Lawrence: "You finally pleaded guilty, to be honest, the evidence I have alone is enough to convict Mrs. You were sent to the gallows, but out of respect for your husband, I am still willing to let you admit it yourself, so please forgive me, why did you do such a thing? John is your son!"

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

Sheriff Chandler was startled and looked at Mrs. Lawrence in amazement.

"He did not follow my advice to get engaged to Miss Catherine, and repeatedly went against my will. When I was arguing with him, I lost my hand and caused such a result." Mrs. Lawrence's face did not waver and her ears finished saying this, almost Looking a little cold, Mrs. Sanders had been crying limply in Mr. Chandler's arms.

Sheriff Chandler watched this bizarre scene. He was very smart and didn't say anything. If there are some secrets, let him keep a secret attitude. This town can't stand any more blows.

Sheriff Chandler finally left with an indifferent Mrs. Lawrence.

Looking at their backs, Evan's expression was a little unbelievable: "She... how could..."

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

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

Evan has long speculated about Mrs. Sanders' secret, the low weeping in front of the Virgin Mary after the banquet at Lawrence's house, the illness she suffered after John's death, the loss of life she said, all made Evan suspect. , that little John, who was loved and loved by the Lawrence couple, is related to Mrs. Sanders. Now it seems that he is indeed right. Mrs. Sanders is little John's biological mother.

As for Mrs Lawrence...

Looking at the direction in which Sheriff Chandler was leaving, Evan sighed. If a woman knew that her husband was unfaithful to her, she would do anything, even if she raised a child for so long.

Mrs. Sanders was helped away by Mr. Chandler again, and Evan also turned around and entered the church. He also had many emotions in his heart for today's events.

The news of Mrs. Lawrence's confession spread the next day, and the entire town of Derainier was caught in the whirlpool of rumors. At this time, the Lawrence family stood on the cusp of the storm.

At this time, Evan welcomed Mr. Lawrence's visit. He was not as bright and beautiful as before. The clothes on his body were a little wrinkled, and the neat black hair was already gray at this time. The man looked like he was ten years older, and his eyes were full of mourning.

He was originally short, and now he was completely stooped. He looked at Evan and whispered: "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, and big, cloudy tears ran down his fingers.

Evan looked at Mr. Lawrence and really didn't know what to say. In the end, he sighed and whispered, "Go back first, Sheriff Chandler knows what to do."

Mr. Lawrence bowed his head, not looking at Evan at all, only 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 out of the door. , isn't it, Reverend Bruce?" Mary was Mrs. Lawrence's name.

Evan hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "The merciful God will not reject any lost soul."

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

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

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

Looking at Mr. Lawrence's back, Evan frowned slightly and said nothing.

After the matter was settled, Evan's eyes returned to Duke Wilson. The impact of the last incident on him was too great. He must know what Dr. Hester said before he let Duke Wilson attitude has changed.

Just before Evan could take action, Dr. Hester invited Evan to be a guest at his house the next morning.

Evan was very surprised. Although he had an intersection with Dr. Hester before, he did not have any deep friendship. Dr. Hester's sudden invitation made many thoughts in his heart.

Although Evan had a lot of thoughts in his heart, he still arrived at Dr. Hester's house on time. Dr. Hester was very happy with Evan's arrival, and he even took out silver tableware to entertain Evan.

Evan was a little flattered. The bottle of red wine he brought at random seemed to be inferior.

Dr. Hester did not take any offence at all. He welcomed Evan in with a very enthusiastic attitude, and Alia also came out of the living room, dressed very formally, wearing a light green skirt that matched her white lips. Red is more exciting.

Seeing Evan come in, Arya bowed very reservedly, Evan smiled and nodded, and the relationship between the two was really gentle.

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

Evan's original smile suddenly froze. He is not a stunned young man, and he can even be regarded as a battle-hardened man. If Dr. Hester's words can be considered explicit, if he can't hear the overtones, then he What a fool.

Alia lowered her head blushing, gently tugged at the corner of Dr. Hester's shirt, and said in a low voice, "Father, it's time to invite Pastor Bruce to dinner."

Hearing that, Dr. Hester laughed more and more happily: "Pastor Bruce, I'm really sorry, or what Arya said is right, please sit down, Arya prepared a very sumptuous dinner today."

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

Evan thought this was a bit absurd, but at the same time there was a little cosmic joy. Was this what Dr. Hester said to Duke Wilson that day? If so, if Duke Wilson insisted on letting him go, does it mean that he did not agree with himself and Arya either.

Evan suddenly felt that Dr. Hester was too cute.

It can be seen that the dinner was carefully prepared. Dr. Hester kept trying to adjust the atmosphere before Evan and Arya, but Evan was obviously inattentive, and Arya didn't cooperate very well, even if Hester The doctor tried his best, but failed to make the relationship between the two people half-hearted.

The last three people finished their meal without embarrassment. Dr. Hester sent Evan out of the house with obvious annoyance, but Evan was full of relief. He walked out of Dr. Hester's house briskly, thinking about the future plan, and quickly came up with new ideas.

Looking at today's situation, Arya is a little reluctant. In fact, this is normal. This book originally revolved around Arya and the Duke's feelings. From the beginning to the end, and looking at the expressions on Alia's face when she faced the duke a few times before, it can be seen that she may have feelings for the duke in her heart.

Evan walked in the darkness with a cold smile on the corners of his mouth. Across the cold night, he was like a loner walking between black and white. He looked at the road ahead without the slightest fluctuation in his heart. Even if he has feelings, he will never give up the golden backer of the Duke no matter what.
