Guidebook for the Dark Duke Chapter 40: Face each other
"Although you say so, but recently, you still have to rest in the manor. You can't just leave like this, or my heart will be uneasy." Duke Wilson lowered his eyebrows and covered his eyes. With an unnatural expression, he said warmly.
Evan was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "You are really a warm-hearted person, if that's the case, then I'll disturb you for a while."
Duke Wilson breathed a sigh of relief, raised his head and glanced at Evan tentatively, seeing that he didn't have any reluctance, and then said: "You are serious, compared to your help to me, I count this. Nothing."
Evan lowered his eyes and smiled, but said nothing.
Seeing that Evan stopped talking, Duke Wilson said: "I came here today because I want to instruct Dr. Hester about a few things. He looked straight at Dr. Hester with a cold expression on his face. I mean."
Dr. Hester's head froze, and he looked at Duke Wilson in confusion.
"You... please order me." Dr. Hester's voice was a little uneasy.
Duke Wilson suddenly smiled at this time, but the coldness in his eyes did not subside at all.
"You didn't tell anyone about Pastor Bruce's injury, did you?"
At that time, the only one who knew about Evan's injury was Dr. Hester, except for the servants of Duke Wilson's mansion. Before, Duke Wilson believed in Dr. Hester's medical ethics on the one hand, and also because these days for the sake of The assassin was tracked down, but he didn't have a hand. Now that Duke Wilson has finally dealt with his foreign affairs, Dr. Hester also remembered this matter.
Dr. Hester's heart tightened, and he quickly said: "Don't worry, even Arya doesn't know about this. I won't reveal it to anyone. You can completely trust me."
Dr. Hester hasn't been foolish enough for this. This incident is obviously a fight between the big guys above, and the little guys like him naturally dare not get involved.
Duke Wilson just sneered when he heard this: "If I didn't trust you, do you think I would say these things to you?"
Dr. Hester's legs were weak, and he looked at Duke Wilson tremblingly, not daring to say a word.
Looking at him like this, Duke Wilson flashed a trace of disdain in his eyes, and said in a low voice, "You better remember what you said today, if there is any rumor about this matter, you should also know the consequences. ."
Dr. Hester couldn't help shaking and nodded slightly: "You...you can rest assured."
Duke Wilson nodded with satisfaction. In a blink of an eye, he saw Evan sitting on the bed with a confused expression. Duke Wilson couldn't help but feel a little annoyed that he actually let him see this side of him.
"Pastor Bruce." Duke Wilson tried his best to control his emotions to normal, and whispered: "This matter is very important, you won't mind?" He looked at Evan tentatively.
Evan's originally empty expression paused slightly, then turned to look at Duke Wilson.
"Of course I don't mind, and I totally agree with your consideration."
Evan has a smile on his lips. The matter Duke Wilson said is indeed very important. The current affairs are obviously not in the hands of the common people. It is better to have less than one more thing. Let them solve it by themselves.
Duke Wilson breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and a smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It's fine if you agree."
Dr. Hester stood aside and watched the interaction between the two people. He couldn't help but murmured in his heart. He was cold and ruthless towards himself. He asked so softly in front of Pastor Bruce.
Duke Wilson didn't have enough time to observe Dr. Hester's thoughts. He looked at Evan, who looked a little tired, and immediately said very thoughtfully: "Your health is not good, please rest first. Well, I'm leaving first."
Evan was already a little tired, so naturally he would not refuse at this time.
Duke Wilson and Dr. Hester left Evan's room, and Evan also lay down on the bed. He looked at the snow-white ceiling and began to think carefully about his plan.
Folder is a big trouble. In fact, he has no grievances or enmity with him, but because of the relationship between the original owner, it is absolutely impossible for the two of them to have any warm scenes. On the contrary, because of the relationship between the original owner, he exposed The odds are high that Evan can't take that risk.
As for Arya, although the duke's senses towards her are very bad now, due to her understanding of the original work, Evan's heart is still uncertain, and the threat of Arya still lingers in Evan's heart.
Both of these people are troublesome for Evan, and Evan feels that he must solve these two problems quickly now.
After a few days, Mr. Johnson's matter still has no results, the whole town is in a rumor, Rael is detained, Mrs. Johnson goes back to the town police station every day to inquire, the pressure of Sheriff Chandler surge.
Evan lives very comfortably. Within the confines of Cornwall Manor, he doesn't need to worry about anything. He just needs to recover from his injuries. From time to time, he will get in touch with Edward again, read him the Bible, and listen to him. Speaking of his own thoughts, he came and went, and Edward also relied on him more.
As for Duke Wilson, I don't know what I've been busy with these days. I used to come to have afternoon tea with him every afternoon. Now I haven't seen him again except for breakfast.
This day, Evan was reading the Bible for Edward in the garden. Edward had always been an obedient child in front of Evan. He lay quietly on Evan's lap and looked at Evan without blinking. Arts.
Evan's voice was soft and quiet, with a soothing power, Edward looked at Evan with reverence, his eyes sparkling with crystal light.
Evan lowered his head and glanced at Edward, patted the top of his hair with a smile, and said warmly, "Do you understand?"
Edward nodded: "I understand, my tutors have taught me before."
Listening to him talking about this, Evan's hand paused for a while, and said unintentionally, "Tutor?"
"Well, Miss Daisy, Miss Daisy is away these days, she'll be back in a few days." Edward threw himself into Evan's arms with a smile, and whispered, "Miss Daisy looks good. She's so pretty, you're sure to like her."
Evan listened to Edward's childish words, but he couldn't help but move in his heart. He almost forgot that in this book, in addition to his dealing cards, there was also Daisy, a non-stop killing The female supporting role is a stepping stone for the heroine Alia.
"When will Miss Daisy be back?" Evan asked tentatively.
Edward frowned and snapped his fingers.
"Miss Daisy's father passed away. It will take a month to come back, there should be five more days."
Seeing that Edward remembered it so clearly, and Evan also understood, it seems that Miss Daisy's status in Edward's place is not low.
"So it is."
Evan touched Edward's hair soothingly. Daisy is not a threat in the book. Duke Wilson doesn't like her at all. Start early.
At this time, a servant suddenly came to report.
"Pastor Bruce, a gentleman wants to see you."
The valet's expression was a little tangled, obviously feeling a little tricky. Cornwall Manor always does not accept guests who have not received an invitation. This kind of situation makes it a little difficult for him to adapt.
Evan frowned. Who would come to him at this time?
"A gentleman? Who is it?"
The servant thought for a while and finally said, "It's the gentleman who came with Mrs. Sanders last time."
Evan's eyebrows could not help wrinkling, it turned out to be Fold! What does he come to do?
"Did he say what he came for?" Evan asked.
The footman nodded slightly: "He said he came to you for the church, and it was very urgent."
For the sake of this, Evan couldn't really refuse, he could only say: "Then let him in."
The valet was a little reluctant, but thinking of the Duke's previous orders, he could only answer in a low voice.
After a while, Ferd came in under the leadership of the footman. Evan patted Edward in his arms: "Lord, go up first, I'll come to you later."
Edward was still in high spirits at first, but now he was tired in an instant, but he didn't want to leave a bad impression on Evan, so he could only jump down from Evan's knees a little dejected, and turned back three steps. left.
As soon as Edward left, Fuld walked up to him. He looked at Evan and smiled very gently.
"Pastor Bruce." He nodded slightly at Evan.
Evan couldn't stand up very well because of his health, so he just smiled and said, "Mr. Ferd, I'm sorry I can't stand up to greet you, please sit down."
Folder sat beside Evan very casually, stroked his cuff, and whispered, "You don't have to be so polite, we are all old friends."
He said these words in a low and casual way, but Evan could hear a bit of sarcasm.
Evan smiled fakely: "What's the matter with you this time?"
Folder raised his eyebrows, his slightly flat face suddenly showing a bit of playfulness.
"You should have heard about Mr. Johnson's affairs in the past few days, right? The matter has not been resolved, but the church's affairs cannot be delayed forever. I suggest you go to Mrs. Johnson with me and bring the church to the church as soon as possible It is good for everyone.”
Folden is high-spirited, with a hint of disdain in his tone.
Evan didn't know whether this disdain was aimed at the Johnson couple or himself, but he just pretended that he didn't hear anything wrong, nodded and said, "You are right, it's just my current body..."
"You can rest assured." Ferd interrupted Evan's words: "Mrs. Johnson, I will invite you directly, you just need to wait at Cornwall Manor, don't bother you to go in person ."
His personal words are very heavy, and his tone is full of sarcasm.
Evan can no longer pretend not to hear such obvious emotions. He frowned and said in a low voice, "What do you mean by that?"
Folder sneered: "Now that Duke Wilson is no more, do you still want to pretend?"
Evan's heart sank, but his expression remained unchanged, and he said softly, "What do you mean?"
Folder looked at him and was almost angrily laughed: "What do I mean? Bruce, what did you do to me back then, do you want me to repeat it for you?"
He got up from his chair and approached Evan.
Evan can barely move now, his hands clenched tightly on the arm of the chair, and he was speechless for a while. He didn't expect that Ferd would turn his face with him so quickly.
