Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 631

Raising his eyebrows, Ethan turned around and stood facing Patrick. The light from outside the door illuminated his profile, but his face was against the light, making it difficult for Patrick to see his expression clearly.

"In a word, yes. Although all the evidence that you raped my mom has been erased, do you honestly believe you can also erase all the crimes you've committed? The truth should be—and will be—revealed. My mother is innocent. It's time for you to take the fall for your sins. We've been waiting for this day for a long time."

Then, the young man turned around and left. Patrick watched him walk away in silence.

When Ethan was gone, Patrick raised his head, stared at the ceiling with his turbid eyes, and suddenly burst into manic laughter.

In the end, he lost. Ethan had won.

The following day, Patrick went to the cemetery to see Sylvia.

He had never been there before.

The cemetery was located in a decent area. Nearby, there was a large plot of land covered in daisies, and the cemetery was surrounded by pine trees.

When Sylvia was still alive, she liked flowers very much. It was not difficult to see why Ethan chosen this spot as her final resting place.

Patrick set a bunch of lilies in front of her grave. Looking at the black and white photograph on the tombstone, he suddenly felt that time had slipped away from him. In the photo, Sylvia's beautiful and gentle smile was immortalized.

Thinking of what had happened in the past, Patrick suddenly found himself unable to look at her photograph. He lowered his head, wrought with guilt.

"Get on your knees. What my mother needs is your apology." Patrick heard Ethan's cold voice from behind him.

Feeling humiliated, he squeezed his eyes shut.
