Ruth nodded her head in agreement.
"That's right, Peter."
Archie seemed to have thought of something and said to him with a serious face: "From the time Ruth was hospitalized until now, there have been people who have been poisoning Ruth, only that they have not been successful. You also know that last time Ruth was seriously injured, and is still recuperating, if anything happens, with her body, she is afraid that she will not be able to cure the poison for Adri. So we must speed up to find the parasite to ensure that everything is safe."
"Who did this?"
Peter had heard about this and was not surprised.
"In addition to Brenden, there are others, although not clear behind the murderer, but I guess with Chaya can not be clean."
After a long time in Waverly, Archie has habitually called Emilio by his former fake name.
"Okay, I know."
Peter's cold face did not have many emotional fluctuations, rose, turned sideways and was about to leave when he inclined his head to look at Ruth, "Take care."
Suddenly a 'take care', Ruth and Archie's eyes are masked surprise.
They never thought that Peter would change his attitude towards them.
"Don't think too much about it. I'm just worried that if something happens to you it will bring Adriana down with it."
Noticing the relief on the Archie's faces, Peter added in a cold voice.
A sentence like a pot of cold water poured down on the head, but also doused Ruth's just warm heart.
Eyeing Peter as he left the living room, she let out a sad sigh, "How could I not know that he was worried about Adri, just ......"
Only she still hoped in her heart that Adriana and Peter could forgive her.
"You and I have sinned so much that we should not beg forgiveness from our two children."
Archie got up, walked over to Ruth, took her into his arms, reached out and smoothed her hair, and said in a serious voice: "For the sake of Adri and those two innocent children, you have to keep yourself safe in order to be responsible for them."
At this point, Ruth is running out of options.
"I will."
Ruth closed her eyes helplessly and leaned wearily on Archie, seeking a touch of comfort.
"Adri must hate me so much that only until I die, she will never forgive."
She couldn't help but feel the emotion.
"As disappointed in your mother as you are now, Adri will be disappointed in you, even, doubly so."
The words were like sharp daggers in Ruth's heart, hurting her breath, uncomfortable tight.
Then you hear Archie say, "I also have an unshirkable responsibility for this matter, and you and I are both victims, I think ......Adri will forgive you one day."
Archie loves Ruth and pampers her to the bone, not wanting her to suffer a little, so he is almost subservient to everything.
The so-called 'love of the house and the crow', precisely because he overly favored Ruth, so when Ruth to Chaya a hundred trust, he did not have the slightest doubt.
