Guidebook for the Dark Duke Chapter 43: A turnaround appears


For Evan's official answer, Mrs. Johnson was speechless, and the tears that had already welled up in her eyes suddenly fell.

Her eyes that were originally red were now cold.

"Aren't you...willing to help me?"

Mrs. Johnson's tone was sad and poignant, and Evan couldn't help but feel a little creepy.

Folder didn't have the eloquence he used to have at this time. He just sat aside with a smile, watching Evan and Mrs. Johnson's confrontation thoughtfully.

Evan couldn't help but grit his teeth, this Ferd really came at him.

"Mrs. Johnson." Evan looked at Mrs. Johnson with a gentle expression: "Of course I am very willing to help you, but this time the matter is no longer in my control, and I can do nothing. Besides, what Mr. Johnson does How can I speak for him when something like this brings shame to God?"

Evan tried his best to appear benevolent but powerless. This was a very complicated case, and he should not interfere now.

Mrs. Johnson looked at Evan with a hint of despair in her eyes. She gritted her teeth, stood up abruptly, closed her eyes, tears streamed down her cheeks, and she sobbed: "Since If you force me like this, then I don't have to worry about anything anymore, everything I have now is all I have, and if you want to take it away, then I will burn everything."

She opened her eyes with determination.

Evan was a little frightened by her aura. In Evan's view, no one who could die should be offended.

But Ferd was not intimidated at all, he sneered and stood up.

"Mrs. Johnson." He looked at Mrs. Johnson's face coldly. Originally, he wanted to use her to expose Evan's ruthless nature, but at this point, he couldn't watch it. He couldn't end it, because after all, this was a major event for the church, and he couldn't stand by.

"You want all the jade to be burnt?" Ferd snorted coldly: "That's okay, I'll tell you clearly that the church's property cannot accept any loss. If you don't compensate, the church will no matter what. Recycle your house, we don't care what you do with yourself."

Folder's remarks were so cold-blooded that Sheriff Chandler couldn't help jumping up: "Mr. Ferder!" He glared at Ferder: "How can you say such cold-hearted words! Mrs. Johnson is already so pitiful, do you still want to force her like this?"

Folder looked at Sheriff Chandler's angry look, but the expression on his face did not change at all. He smiled and said: "Sheriff Chandler, you are really a kind-hearted person, if you are not satisfied with me If you dispose of it, then the same is true for you to help Mrs. Johnson repay the debt."

Folder's words blocked Sheriff Chandler to death. He blushed and couldn't say a word. Although he was considered a gentleman, his income I'm afraid that Evan's face is not as good as Evan, not to mention that he has a big family to support, how can he repay such a large amount of money.

Folder grimly looked around at the people around him, and finally looked at Duke Wilson, who looked calm, and even raised the corner of his mouth, and finally stopped his eyes on the sad-looking Mrs. Johnson's face. After these few days He clearly realized that this woman was not an ordinary middle-aged woman, her heart was even colder than that of a man, and he didn't believe anything she said.

"Okay, Mrs. Johnson." Verde softened a little: "The church understands your situation, and we won't force you to repay immediately. As the church's agent, I can I assure you that the church will give you three months to raise this money and we will not disturb your life until then, but please understand that the church is not a weak enough to be bullied If you want to forgive the debt, you should give up.”

Folder's remarks finally eased the tense scene a little, and Sheriff Chandler's tense face also eased a little.

Evan heard this, but he couldn't help but glance at Ferd. It's a good way to push people to the extreme first, and give some sweetness, not only to achieve his goals, but also to let this person treat you Thanks Dade, that's awesome.

Mrs. Johnson's expression changed slightly when she heard this. Finally, she finally raised her head and looked at Ferd with tears in her eyes. She wiped her wet cheeks with a handkerchief, and then said softly, "Thank you very much. I will hurry up to raise funds.”

Folder nodded casually before sitting down.

Duke Wilson did not finally speak until Ferd was seated: "Since the two of you have reached an agreement, then please leave, I have other things to do later."

Duke Wilson said these words very coldly, showing no mercy at all. Everyone present looked at the Duke with some surprise. In everyone's eyes, the Duke has always been a cautious and observant existence. An embarrassing scene that they hardly ever saw.

Duke Wilson ignored everyone's gazes at all. He stood up impatiently and waved to the outside. Immediately, a servant came in and made a welcome gesture.

Everyone's faces couldn't help being a little embarrassed. The Duke's gesture was equivalent to driving people away.

Fould reacted faster in the end. He immediately bowed to the Duke and said with a smile, "Then I'll take my leave first. I'll trouble you today."

The Duke nodded coldly, and Ferd immediately turned and left the room.

Mrs. Johnson and Sheriff Chandler also retreated along with Ferd, but the expressions on their faces were not as comfortable as Ferd's.

The three quickly left the Cornwall Manor. The speed at which they left even surprised Evan. What happened to the Duke?

Evan turned to look at Duke Wilson with some doubts.

Facing Evan's surprised face, Duke Wilson bowed his head unbearably. After a long time, he finally whispered: "I don't like these people."

They came to his manor and bullied his people, a situation that Duke Wilson could not bear.

Evan didn't understand Duke Wilson's psychology, and sighed: "I understand your thoughts, this matter is too bizarre, and Mrs. Johnson's backtracking really caught me by surprise. To think that Mr. Johnson didn't keep a penny."

Speaking of this, Duke Wilson couldn't help but sneer: "You are too benevolent, saying that she didn't leave money, it was just her coveting property, they are husband and wife, Mr. Johnson is in the money. Mrs. Johnson can't be calculated."

Evan couldn't help but stagnate when he heard Duke Wilson say this. He lowered his head and thought for a long time, and finally shook his head: "Although what you said makes sense, I still can't believe that Mrs. Johnson would have With this kind of thinking, I have always believed that human nature is inherently good, and I will not use malice to guess human nature until I get more information."

Duke Wilson was speechless when he heard him say this. He looked at Evan with a complicated look and couldn't help sighing in his heart. Such a person would exist in this world. He absolutely cannot let today's These people drag him into the dark abyss.

A person like Duke Wilson is not good at reasoning, but he is more sensitive to the maliciousness of human nature than anyone else. Today's scene of Mrs. Johnson is too deliberate. He almost cried when Mrs. Johnson At that moment, I realized that Mrs. Johnson is not as pitiful as she said. In today's scene, except for Evan and the confused Sheriff Chandler, everyone is not easy.

Duke Wilson looked at Evan's profile with a cryptic expression. He must investigate this matter. He must know the past between Evan and Ferd. He can't stand Evan's absence. own life.

Duke Wilson sent Evan back to the second floor as he was, and watched him fall asleep before leaving Evan's bedroom.

When Duke Wilson entered the study, there was already a person waiting in the study. This man had an ordinary face, but he looked like a gentleman, very neat, and when he saw the Duke come in, he also There was no fuss, he stood up gracefully, took off his hat dramatically and bowed to the duke: "Sir Duke."

Duke Wilson walked past this man with a blank face, without raising his eyebrows. He walked straight to the back of the desk, sat down, and then raised his hand: "Sit down, Ed. Sen."

Adson's mouth curled into a smile, and he slowly sat down: "Sir, you haven't summoned me for a long time. What's the important thing you're here this time?"

Duke Wilson frowned, paused for a moment, and finally said: "You give me a thorough investigation of Pastor Bruce's background, and you can't let any details."

Adelson was slightly surprised when he heard this, raised his head and glanced at Duke Wilson: "Pastor Bruce?"

He is the Duke's staff and the townspeople of Derain Riel. Naturally, he knows Pastor Bruce, a faithful believer of God, a kind and annoying young pastor.

"Is there something wrong with this Mr. Pastor?" was Ederson's first reaction.

Duke Wilson frowned slightly and shook his head: "No, I just want to know what his background is. Now that he is close to me, I don't want any problems."

After hearing this, Ederson's smiling face suddenly disappeared. He stood up solemnly and looked at Duke Wilson with a very focused look.

"Has your relationship with Pastor Bruce reached the point where a background investigation is required?"

His words were very solemn, and almost made Duke Wilson a little overwhelmed.

"This kind of thing doesn't need your intervention." His answer was a little guilty: "You just need to do what I told you."

Ederson half-raised his head and looked at Duke Wilson's hand holding his cuff. He suddenly felt a little bad in his heart. What was going on with the person who made Duke Wilson so nervous? Although he has not communicated with the duke in the past few days, he has been paying attention to the duke's every move. The duke was assassinated, and the contacts of the entire duke's mansion rushed to the capital. The prince who committed suicide is only afraid at this time. It's already very uncomfortable, and the pastor Bruce who saved the duke's name, he has never paid much attention to it, and now he thinks that he can stay in the duke's mansion to recuperate until now, which is a very strange phenomenon in itself.

Adelson clenched his fists, and a look of determination flashed across his originally dull face. He still had to think about this matter.
