Guidebook for the Dark Duke Chapter 15: Dying Request
Evan was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Of course, as long as I can do it, I will definitely serve you."
Mrs. Sanders was suddenly out of breath, and Evan hurried forward to help her pat her back.
"Ahem... Pastor Bruce, I know you're a good man."
You're wrong, Evan thought to himself as he fed Mrs. Sanders water.
"My illness will not work this time. When I die, can you please bury me in the southeast corner of the cemetery?" Mrs. Sanders grabbed Evan's arm with her dry hand , asked laboriously.
Evan looked at Mrs. Sanders with some surprise. The southeast corner of Delan Lier's cemetery is very remote, and almost no one will use it as the first choice for their final resting place after death.
"Why is that?" Evan asked softly, "Don't you want to be buried in the parish staff's exclusive cemetery to sleep with God?"
Mrs. Sanders squeezed Evan's wrist laboriously and struggled: "Please."
Evan had no choice but nodded and said, "But you have to tell me what happened to you?"
Mrs. Sanders suddenly flashed a bleak look in her eyes: "Pastor Bruce, there is a certain number of people in this world. I have been called by the Lord, and I have no meaning to survive in this world."
Evan could not help frowning when he heard this: "What are you saying, Mr. Chandler and I are looking forward to your recovery."
Mrs. Sanders gave a wry smile: "The only hope in the world for me to survive has been shattered, and I have no more excuses to live."
Evan looked at Mrs. Sanders, and suddenly a guess that made him panic.
Mrs. Sanders looked out the window and suddenly said, "Pastor Bruce, where are you from? Are you busy with the church these days?"
Evan restrained his inner restlessness, smiled and said: "I came from the police station, and Sheriff Chandler asked me to help him find out the truth about Mr. Lawrence Jr.'s death."
When Mrs. Sanders heard this, her face instantly turned pale. She clenched her hands nervously, and her face twitched slightly.
Evan remained calm, but sighed deeply: "What an excellent young man, it's a pity that he passed away at such a young age, but today's incident has turned a corner. Mr. Lawrence has an illegitimate child left."
Mrs. Sanders looked at Evan in disbelief.
"The Lawrence couple also know, but because the illegitimate child is really indecent, so they didn't say it. Sheriff Chandler found it out." Evan tried his best to play down his role in it. effect.
Mrs. Sanders heard this, but her eyes flickered faintly: "Is what you said true? That...that poor child, does there really have a child left?"
Evan patted Mrs. Sanders on the back of the hand: "Of course it is true, I have seen it with my own eyes, you should know Amy, the maid of the Lawrence family, she is pregnant with John's child, poor little John , and finally have a child of their own, but unfortunately the Lawrences don't seem to take it seriously."
Evan said in a low tone, but Mrs. Sanders' eyes flashed with tenderness. She originally thought she was a strong-willed lady. If she wanted to live, she would not easily give up her life.
"Thank you very much, Pastor Bruce, and thank you for coming to see me." Mrs. Sanders leaned back on the pillow on the bed, and her already cold eyes suddenly became warmer.
Evan nodded slightly, glanced at the clock on the wall again, and said warmly: "It's almost time for lunch, I'll go first, you need to rest more."
Mrs. Sanders nodded slightly, looking at Evan with a little more gratitude.
Evan left Mrs. Sanders' small room and saw Mr. Chandler standing in the doorway with a piece of beef in his hand.
"Pastor Bruce." His expression was a little sad: "What did she say to you?"
Evan patted Mr. Chandler lightly on the shoulder and said warmly, "Don't worry, Mrs. Sanders will survive."
Mr. Chandler looked at Evan with some surprise, Evan smiled without saying a word, nodded, turned and left.
Evan went out of Mrs. Sanders' house and suddenly remembered to buy some candles for the church. He had been staying up late these nights to sort out the church account books. The consumption of candles was too amazing. The damage to the church's finances was also worse than thought.
Evan didn't know much about the small town of Delan Lier, so he asked a few people to know where the grocery store was, but the road to the town was not very clear. Evan walked around and got lost.
He turned around a tavern, but found himself walking to a back street. It was very desolate. There were only a few shops open, but it didn't look like a good place. There was an almost half-naked woman sitting. She was wearing a skirt with a big neckline and half of her **** were exposed. At this time, she was leaning against the door lazily, watching Evan giggling.
Evan frowned. Based on his more than 20 years of experience in his last life, he had come to the red light district of Delan Lille.
Evan was immediately a little embarrassed, turned around and left. Although he had been to this kind of place in his past life, he is still wearing the skin of a priest. If he remembers correctly, the reason why this character finally Knowing cannon fodder is because he is lustful and despicable, and he must not have anything to do with this kind of place now.
Evan hurriedly left, but he might as well just walk to the entrance of the alley, when he suddenly saw a figure flashing in front of him, and Evan immediately hid in the shadows at the entrance of the alley with a guilty conscience.
He looked at the two people in the alley, one was tall and big, leaning against the wall, looking at the other, who was also covered in shadows, Only a delicate jaw is exposed.
Evan frowned. He always felt that the big man looked familiar.
"Lord Duke, what do you think?" said the big man in a low voice.
Evan was shocked, it turned out to be Duke Wilson?
The other person slowly came out of the shadows, with an indifferent and gloomy expression, it was Duke Wilson.
"What do I think? James, I remember we negotiated the price before." Duke Wilson's voice was cold.
Big James sneered: "We negotiated a price, but that price didn't include going to jail!"
Evan finally remembered where he had seen this big man. It was the gypsy who was mistakenly arrested by the Welsh sheriff. It turned out that Duke Wilson was really related to this gypsy.
"I personally got you out of prison, doesn't that show my sincerity?" The Duke's tone was still calm.
James gave a wicked smile, and suddenly leaned forward, reaching out to touch the Duke's profile, but the Duke avoided him with a look of disgust.
"What the **** are you trying to do!" the Duke snapped.
James smiled slyly: "Your Majesty, you are really prettier than all the women I have ever seen, don't you know what I mean? If you want my silence, you should Pay me what I'm happy with."
Duke Wilson squinted his eyes instantly, and a dangerous light flashed in his eyes. Even when Evan stood at the entrance of the alley, he could feel the coldness on the Duke.
But James didn't feel the slightest, and still joked disgustingly: "My lord, I am strong and strong, and I do a good job. You will be satisfied."
Evan couldn't help taking a breath of air, but he was instantly noticed by the people inside. James was very alert and ran away from the other side of the alley, but the Duke stood still, staring at Evan. Where Wen was standing, he said coldly, "Come out!"
Evan's expression trembled slightly, and he felt a little uncomfortable. He was arrested on the spot. Today is too careless.
Evan slowly walked out of the shadows, and the duke's expression changed from vicious to shock. He looked at Evan in disbelief, and he was almost speechless.
"Lord Duke." Evan said embarrassedly.
"What are you doing here!" The Duke snorted, almost angrily.
Evan looked at Duke Wilson with his mouth half open, but his heart was as bitter as Huanglian, so he ran into the Duke's *, he was really unlucky.
"I... lost my way..." Evan said weakly, saying that he didn't believe it himself.
Looking at Evan's innocent and clear blue eyes, the Duke only felt a little dazzling, he bit his lower lip, and the resentment in his heart could not stop overflowing.
"Go! Get me out of here!" Facing Evan's face, the Duke didn't say any bad words, he just waved his hand a little irritably, turned around and didn't look at Evan.
Evan was also embarrassed in his heart. Hearing this, he quickly turned and left.
Wilson turned to look at Evan's hurried back, and for some reason there was a hint of embarrassment in his heart. How could this person see his worst side.
Duke Wilson hated James even more in his heart. No one in this world could threaten him, not to mention that he dared to think of him so boldly. A trace of viciousness appeared in Duke Wilson's eyes, and a vicious smile climbed up Touching the corner of his mouth, he strode out of the alley, and the corner of his coat rolled up a small ripple at his feet, causing a slight breeze.
Evan fled to the main street almost embarrassed. He looked at the people coming and going around him, and only felt that his heartbeat was so strong that it made his heart palpitate.
He looked up at the store opposite, it was the grocery store he had been looking for for a long time, but at this time Evan had no intention of buying candles, he raised his feet and wanted to leave, but was stopped by the store owner who came out .
"Pastor Bruce, the candle you ordered last time is ready. I want to deliver it to you when, but I don't want to meet you here. Are you here to pick up the candle?" The shop owner's face flushed with excitement , hurriedly and enthusiastically dragged Evan into the store.
Evan followed the shopkeeper in a daze, but his heart was a mess.
