"I confess! I confess! I should never have been a mistress, or interfered with someone's marriage! I'm guilty! Please, I'm begging you, I confess!"

After saying that, Sharon looked up at the priest, hoping that she would be off the hook.

However, her silent plea for sympathy got pushed aside as the priest flipped through the thick scripture in his hand and didn't even Look at her. He just calmly asked her, “You are done? Think carefully, for lying and concealing the truth are unforgivable before the departed and God."

Sharon turned pale. She felt as if she was about to collapse.

With no way left for her to escape, Sharon glanced up at the gun held to her head.

She took a deep breath, knowing she had no choice but to confess her misdeeds.

“What I have done is immoral. I shouldn't have knowingly seduced Darian, a married man."

Sharon tightly clenched her sleeves as she confessed, "I shouldn't have deliberately brought my illegitimate child to their doorstep and used every means to provoke Darian's wife, driving her to madness."

"I shouldn't have mistreated her son after she died.”

“I was the one who used to lock Theodore in a dark room alone. I would scare him and make him go without food for days. I would even let him get drenched in the rain so that he would fall sick. I take responsibility for my actions because it was my wrongdoings toward the poor boy. I wanted to drive him to insanity, so I inflicted pain and misery upon him.

Hearing her confess to such heinous crimes against Theodore, the crowd burst into an uproar, and some even hurled cusses at Sharon.

As for Ariana, who was standing alongside Theodore, she felt her heartache as she held his hand tighter, hearing about those awful memories of his childhood.

However, when Darian heard the cusses and whispers of people behind him, he felt infuriated. Unable to control his anger and humiliation, he shouted at Sharon, "You foolish woman! Shut up!"

However, there was no turning back for Sharon. With a gun pointed at her, she knew she couldn't get out of the situation unscathed. She had already decided to risk it all to save her own life. She paid no attention to Darian’s warning and, in one breath, confessed everything she had done.

"I orchestrated the rape of Darian's other Lovers to secure my position as hostess. I even filmed the whole process and used the videos to blackmail them, forcing them to Leave the Anderson family. I was the one responsible for all these actions."

Sharon's crimes were that she had done many other evil things to anchor her authority in the Anderson family. There was no denying the fact that almost every woman who came close to that family or to Darian had a tragic outcome because of her.

As Sharon reached the end of her confession, she looked up at the priest with a pitiful expression, seemingly having no more words to say.

The priest took a look at Theodore and saw that Theodore nodded slightly, indicating that Sharon could go aside.

Then he turned towards the Anderson family and said, "Next one."

As the bodyguards walked towards them, Brielle held her breath, hoping she wouldn't be the one brought forward. The moment she saw Jasper getting dragged out, she let out a sigh of relief and calmed down.
