Guidebook for the Dark Duke Chapter 115: In trouble


"Of course you won't do it yourself." Colonel Mel's smile contained a sly smile: "How could a noble gentleman like you let such a thing get your hands dirty."

While saying this, he took out a piece of paper from his prison uniform and handed it to Sheriff Chandler beside him.

"Mr. Sheriff, please take a look at this letter. It was given to me by my lawyer last night. It was left on purpose by Ederson before he died. My new lawyer has accepted these things. , although I had such a guess before, but I never believed it, but after reading this letter, I had to believe it." Mel's face showed a hint of coldness, which seemed to be similar to that of the gentle gentleman before. A world of difference.

Evan bit his lower lip lightly, his face still looked like he didn't care, but he couldn't help but feel a little worried. He always knew that Mel was a smart person. If you involve yourself in this matter, you will be absolutely prepared. Evan's mind is completely affected by the thin letter at this time.

Sheriff Chandler took the letter from Mel, and he couldn't help but glance at Evan with a hint of solemnity in his eyes.

Evan clenched his fists, but tried his best to show a calm look on his face, but when he was the most nervous, there was a warm palm covering the back of his hand, Evan's heart tightened, Looking back, he suddenly bumped into Duke Wilson's gentle eyes. The trust and support in those eyes made Evan feel a little guilty. He lowered his eyes in a panic and didn't dare to. Look into his eyes again.

At this time, Sheriff Chandler had already opened the letter. It was just a very simple piece of paper, but at this time it affected the minds of everyone in the room.

Sheriff Chandler frowned at the first glance, and by the end, his brows were already frowning.

He gave Evan a meaningful glance.

The meaning in that glance made Evan's heart hang.

Sheriff Chandler slowly stood up from the chair, he walked to Evan, looked straight into Evan's eyes, and said solemnly: "Pastor Bruce, can you explain this? ?" He unfolded the letter in front of Evan's eyes.

Evan couldn't wait to read the contents of the letter, but his expression changed when he saw the first line.

Adelson admits to killing Eliza himself.

Evan hurriedly looked at the text again, and his face became more and more ugly.

When he was reading the last word, Evan finally raised his head. He stared at Mel behind Sheriff Chandler, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Although Ederson admitted that he killed Eliza, he was coerced by Evan to do it. His child needed a lot of money for treatment, and he couldn't afford it. Evan knew about this and offered to provide him with the money, and his condition was to let him kill Eliza and put the blame on Mel.

Such absurdity yet so convincing, Evan just stood there, feeling a little dizzy.

"Sheriff Chandler." Evan gritted his teeth, looked straight at Sheriff Chandler's slightly weird line of sight, and whispered, "You wouldn't believe such nonsense, would you?"

"Personally, of course I don't believe it, I have 100% confidence in your character." Sheriff Chandler replied neatly: "But..." He hesitated slightly: "But anyway I am a sheriff, and I would like to ask you to explain the problems described in this letter."

Evan actually understands Sheriff Chandler's entanglement. This kind of thing is not easy to deal with no matter who it is.

"I understand your difficulty, but with regard to this letter, I can say with absolute certainty that every word it says is a lie, that I have not been involved in any murders, nor have I I have instructed Mr. Ederson to do anything, and I didn’t use Mr. Ederson’s son to coerce him, God testifies, I didn’t even know he had a son!” Evan finally seemed a little excited at this time, Murder charges, I believe no one will take it lightly.

It was the first time that Sheriff Chandler saw Evan so excited, so he hurriedly stepped forward and waved his hand to appease: "Please don't be so excited, this is just a letter, maybe someone forged it to frame you, Not necessarily true."

When talking about this, Mel couldn't help but let out a cold sigh: "Sheriff Chandler, your attitude towards the suspect is really different, since you suspect that there is something wrong with this letter, then you can do your best to You can go to the hospital where Edson's son lives to check to see if there is such a thing, and I don't want anyone to be wronged in this matter."

Hearing Mel's so determined voice, Evan couldn't help but grit his teeth. I was afraid that Mel had already made all preparations, and even if Sheriff Chandler went to investigate, he would not be able to find anything.

"Oh, you're right." Sheriff Chandler's eyes suddenly lit up: "Perhaps this is the only way to clear your suspicions." He looked at Evan a little excitedly.

Evan smiled reluctantly, not holding any hope for the results of this investigation.

"Wait a minute." Duke Wilson suddenly spoke at this time. He walked behind Evan and supported Evan as if he were the strongest backing.

He glanced at Mel coldly, without the slightest emotion in his eyes. Maybe he hadn't realized before that Mel was actually such a bold person.

"Since someone used this to frame Evan, I'm afraid I've already made preparations. Even if you go to investigate, what can you find out." He pursed his lips angrily, such a small For one thing, he even let people steal the sky under his nose, how could this not make him angry.

Colonel Mel just chuckled softly: "Why does the Duke think so much, this matter must be explained no matter what, as for the result of the investigation, we have to check it before we can find out, just sit If I say it here, I'm afraid it won't convince the public."

Duke Wilson's eyes became more and more gloomy, his hands were clenched tightly, his joints were almost white, he stared at Mel, he had already had countless evil thoughts about this person, but this Time, this scene, did not allow him to put his thoughts into practice.

Duke Wilson suppressed the anger in his heart, he turned his head, glanced at Sheriff Chandler with a blank face, and said word by word: "Then please investigate Mr. Sheriff, and Eddie. Sen's letter, please also ask Mr. Sheriff to check the handwriting carefully, so as not to be taken advantage of."

Although Duke Wilson could see at a glance that the letter was indeed Ederson's handwriting, and although the letter still had Ederson's seal and signature on it, Duke Wilson did not believe that Ederson would make a such a stupid thing.

Duke Wilson took Evan's hand mercilessly and left. He ignored the attempts to keep Sheriff Chandler and walked out. It was a joke. Evan was humiliated in front of so many people. That's all, if he is still brought into the police station by Sheriff Chandler, then he will never forgive himself in his life.

Evan was pulled by Duke Wilson, and he almost stumbled out. When he reached the door, Duke Wilson slowed down, and Evan was relieved.

"Don't be angry." Although Evan was also very upset, he still warmly comforted Duke Wilson, who was obviously in a violent mood.

"How can I not be angry!" Duke Wilson turned to look at Evan, with a faint trace of blood in his eyes: "He...he dared to treat you like this, I will never let him go!"

It was the first time I saw such a bloodthirsty Duke Evan, he couldn't help but frowned, and finally said in a low voice: "You... don't do this, Colonel Mel is just a general Just say what he knows, I haven't done it, you...don't worry too much."

Seeing Evan's simple thoughts, Duke Wilson didn't know whether it was joy or sorrow. He couldn't help but soften his expression and said warmly: "I know you haven't done it, I believe in you, don't worry, I don't. You'll be fine."

Evan couldn't help but be puzzled by the sudden change in Duke Wilson's expression, but he finally smiled: "I know, I believe you."

Duke Wilson left with Evan, but this time Duke Wilson didn't say anything to let Evan go to church, and took him directly to Cornwall Manor. He was afraid that Chandler would go back and ignore it. Evan took it back to the police station, and this situation was definitely the last thing he wanted to see.

Evan didn't refute either, and honestly followed Duke Wilson back to Cornwall Manor. Although he wanted to pretend to be a white lotus, he had no intention of going to prison.

Edward was the happiest at the end of this decision. When he saw Evan coming, he was so happy that he dragged Evan to his room, but this time Duke Wilson did not tolerate Edward's willfulness and directly sent him He reprimanded, and then dragged Evan directly towards the study upstairs.

Evan looked at the backs of Evan and Duke Wilson with some grievances. He was a little unhappy in his heart, but there was no reluctance in his eyes. He knew very well that only Evan was completely with Duke Wilson. To be with Evan forever, as long as he thinks of this, Edward can't help himself with excitement.

He imagined such a scene, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he waved at the footman behind him, and went straight back to his room.

**

Evan's life was very peaceful for the next two days. Although there were still worries brought about by the letter, perhaps because of Duke Wilson, Evan did not feel the slightest sense of oppression and anxiety.

On the contrary, Duke Wilson has been very busy these days. Evan watched countless people come and go in and out of his study. Duke Wilson was almost too busy to even say a word to him. But Evan took the greatest reassurance from his increasingly calm look every day.

It's just that those days finally came to an end on the third day.

That day Evan and Duke Wilson were drinking afternoon tea in the garden. Little Edward was lying on Evan's lap, listening with burning eyes to Evan telling him the stories in the Bible, which are things that have been repeated countless times. , but at this time little Edward was still very interested, as if it was the most attractive thing in the world.

And even such a warm scene was suddenly broken.

Butler Chris walked in with a slightly nervous look. He walked over to Duke Wilson, bent down and said in a low voice, "Lord Duke, Sheriff Chandler is here."

The look in Duke Wilson's eyes flashed slightly, and he nodded. He turned his head to look at Evan. Duke Wilson at this time seemed to be completely different from the furious Duke Wilson three days ago. He nodded and whispered, "Let's go back."

Of course Evan heard what Chris Butler said just now, so his mood at this time was not very good. He nodded stiffly, hugged Edward who was lying on his lap, and followed Wilson The Duke's footsteps walked towards the castle.
