Guidebook for the Dark Duke

Sheriff Chandler frowned strangely, as if he didn't understand Colonel Mel's excitement.

"Yes Colonel, I almost forgot to tell you, your wife is indeed pregnant." Sergeant Chandler said softly.

Colonel Mel seemed to realize that he was out of line. He took a deep breath and tried hard to restrain the expression on his face.

"This... This is really great." He lowered his head and looked at Mrs. Mel in his arms. Although his face had regained his usual calmness, there was a touch of tenderness in his eyes.

Evan stood behind and watched and couldn't help frowning. He seemed to have seen such an expression somewhere before. He turned his head to look at Duke Wilson, and then suddenly froze. Yes, he had indeed seen such an expression before. Can't help but bend the corner of his mouth.

Duke Wilson noticed the change in his expression, and gave him a strange look. Evan shook his head slightly, turned his face and continued to look at the scene in front of him.

Mrs. Mel also looked back at Colonel Mel, but there were tears in her eyes, as if she had a lot of grievances to tell.

The interaction between this husband and wife completely stunned the traditional-minded Sheriff Chandler. He didn't understand why Mrs. Mel, who had been betrayed, treated Colonel Mel so tenderly. He didn't understand, Colonel Mel. Since she cared so much about Mrs. Mel, how could she do such a thing.

Evan's expression was very flat, but there was a trace of coldness in his eyes, watching the two people hugging and crying in the hallway.

After a long time, Mrs. Mel's emotions finally calmed down, and the two of them approached the living room. Colonel Mel's face still had a trace of embarrassment, but Mrs. Mel was like a happy bird at this time , instructing the butler and servants to serve food and black tea to Colonel Mel.

Sheriff Chandler's face has always been ugly. Mrs. Mel's behavior seems to be saying that he abused Colonel Mel in the police station. ill.

And Colonel Mel couldn't help standing up straight the moment he saw Duke Wilson, and he seemed a little nervous.

"Your... Your Excellency the Duke." His voice was not as loud as usual, but rather hoarse.

Duke Wilson nodded with a cold face and didn't say much, which was also one of the conditions for him to watch.

After everyone sat down in the living room, Sergeant Chandler couldn't wait to open up the topic.

"Colonel Mel, look at your current situation. You already have a child who needs your upbringing. I know you must be hiding something, but it's a dead end for you now. If you don't say it again, Your child will become an orphan, are you willing to cause such a result?"

Sheriff Chandler said his words sincerely, but when he said orphans, Mrs. Mel couldn't help shivering, and hugged Colonel Mel's arm tightly.

Colonel Mel patted the back of Mrs. Mel's hand with a little embarrassment, and nodded slightly to Sergeant Chandler: "I know your kindness, but I..."

"Oh, Charlie!" Mrs. Mel looked up at Colonel Mel's face in pain, and said in a low voice, "Just tell what you know, I'm really... really scared..."

Colonel Mel looked down at Mrs. Mel. She was completely different from usual at this time, like a girl who was acting like a spoiled child to her lover, with light tenderness exuding from the corners of her eyes and brows.

"I understand." He patted Mrs. Mel's hair, and when he raised his head again, his expression became firm.

"Sheriff Chandler." He pursed his lips, as if he had made some huge determination: "I didn't want to say these things at first, but now I feel that I have to say them, but these things are somewhat involved. The secret of the Duke of Wilson, now that the Duke of Wilson is here, I want to ask for your permission."

After speaking, he looked expectantly at Duke Wilson. Duke Wilson frowned slightly, glanced at Sergeant Chandler who was slightly curious, and then stared closely at Colonel Mel's eyes. Could it be that he really Want to tell the things he did to himself?

No, he wouldn't be so stupid, he would still die if he said those things, but now that he was on the ropes, the idiot Mel actually threw the problem on the surface!Especially...especially...he glanced at Evan, who was sitting next to him with clear eyes.

Duke Wilson was very angry in his heart, but under such an occasion, he must not get angry, otherwise he would have confirmed a certain conjecture, so he held back his anger and suppressed his anger.

"You can say whatever you want. There is nothing more important than your life right now." Duke Wilson clenched his fists tightly and said out of place.

Colonel Mel smiled at the Duke, turned his head to look at Sheriff Chandler, and said softly: "Since His Excellency the Duke agrees, then I will tell the matter."

Seeing this place, Evan felt a faint chill in his heart. He twisted the corner of his clothes with his fingertips, forcing himself to listen to what Colonel Mel said.

"You keep asking me if I'm hiding something." Colonel Mel's tone was slightly low, as if with some special emotion: "Actually, it's not that I want to hide something, but that I don't want to think about it, Now it looks like I have to say all these things."

Having said that, he looked at Evan, as if there was no sign, and just looked straight at him.

Evan's heart jumped, and a bad premonition rushed up immediately.

"Pastor Bruce, you have always been an upright and noble gentleman in Delanele. I admire you very much, and I am also very grateful for your help to me, but..." He pondered for a moment.

Evan frowned slightly, but there is absolutely no good words behind this.

"But I have to say." Colonel Meier finally said, "Your camouflage is really excellent."

He was so straightforward that everyone was taken aback by his words. Duke Wilson reacted even more violently. He stood up directly from the sofa and looked at Mel viciously, without any concealment.

Mel saw him like this, couldn't help but smiled and waved his hands: "My lord, don't worry, after you finish listening to my words, you will have time to react."

Duke Wilson's expression did not ease because of this. He looked at Mel coldly, as if he was looking at a dead person, but Mel still looked gentle, as if he didn't feel anything.

The atmosphere suddenly became deadlocked.

At this moment, a warm hand pressed against the back of the Duke's hand, the Duke's body trembled slightly, and then a gentle voice came from behind.

"Charles, don't get excited. I believe Colonel Mel will be responsible for what he said."

Evan's eyes were still as gentle and compassionate as before. He looked at Colonel Mel as if he was looking at a naughty child, without the slightest impatience, but with patience and calmness.

Colonel Mel couldn't help but move the corners of his mouth, but in the end he didn't say a word.

As for Duke Wilson, he had already been softened by Evan's few words. He obediently was dragged by Evan to sit on the sofa, and his face was much more relaxed than before.

Sheriff Chandler breathed a sigh of relief as if he had escaped a catastrophe. He couldn't help but glance at Evan. He hadn't realized before that Evan had such a great influence on Duke Wilson.

"Of course, Pastor Bruce, I will be responsible for my words." Colonel Mel said dryly.

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head, pondered for a moment, and finally spoke again: "Although Pastor Bruce seems to be a noble and pure priest, no matter how you deal with Alia (speaking of At the time of this sentence, Dr. Hester, who had come for a follow-up visit, couldn’t help raising his head.) It’s still a tribute to that respectable Mr. Fold, which makes me think that you are someone who deserves my attention , when everyone is standing on the opposite side of you, it seems that they are so vulnerable, you don’t even need to shoot, others will help you solve all difficulties, maybe once or twice I think it’s nothing, but it’s always In this way, it makes me understand that you are not as innocent and harmless as you show."

While speaking this long paragraph, Mel kept staring into Evan's eyes, as if looking at a prey, with a cautious and sharp expression.

Evan's expression didn't change at all, he was still so kind and gentle. When Mel said the last sentence, he couldn't help but smile: "Actually, it's not just you, sometimes I myself will thank God Your love for me has freed me from these bad lucks."

Colonel Mel couldn't help laughing sarcastically: "Oh, my dear pastor, this has nothing to do with God. It is entirely the result of your own hard work that you can get to where you are today."

The irony was so sharp that Sergeant Chandler couldn't help but frown: "Colonel Mel, this time you did a lot of work on Pastor Bruce, how could you slander him so much? If you want to find the murderer, please stop talking about irrelevant topics."

Sheriff Chandler's words finally made Mel look serious. He looked straight at Evan with a very firm tone: "You kept asking me before, who would know the relationship between me and Eliza, So I will tell you today that during my relationship with Elisa, I almost exhausted all my means to prevent this relationship from being known by people. Everyone here, I am afraid that even the Duke does not know. , but there is one person you have been ignoring all along, and that is Pastor Bruce! I swear to God, the only person who knows about this is Pastor Bruce!"

Mel's words shocked almost everyone. He was right. Out of all the people present, only Evan had been hinted about their relationship before, but...but never People associate Evan with this matter, which is really...

"Nonsense!" Duke Wilson finally couldn't stand Mel's slander against Evan, and stood up abruptly from the sofa: "How dare you! How dare you!" He pointed at Mel with trembling fingers, his eyes flickering. Hong, seemed to be out of breath.

Mel still looked leisurely, and he glanced at Sergeant Chandler with a livid face and Evan with a calm expression beside him, and continued: "I have never doubted Pastor Bruce before, but a few days ago I I heard that Mr. Pastor had someone visit him in the monastery where Eliza lived, and I understood that you are not someone who you think you can trust. Because you have never told anyone about this from the beginning to the end. thing!"

Evan's eyes finally turned cold at this time. Mel was right. Before he left, he did ask his enthusiastic cook, Mrs. Haydn, to visit Eliza in the monastery. It was just him His own ridiculous sympathy caused trouble, and he had completely forgotten about this incident long afterward, but at this time it became a sharp weapon to attack him.

"Our venerable and noble pastor, he just wanted to climb up to the duke from the beginning to the end and make the duke his personal property, so Edson and I and the innocent Alia , can’t exist, we all have to disappear, so everyone who is close to the Duke, no matter who they are, except Priest Bruce, is plagued by bad luck, if it’s just one person, then so many people still can’t explain the problem ?"

At this time, Mel seemed to have gained some power, stood up from the sofa, and looked straight at Evan, his eyes were full of anger.

Evan looked at him, but his heart was peaceful, and he even had the time to think about it. Finally, a flaw was revealed in this matter.

He slowly stood up from the sofa. The living room, which looked warm and peaceful at first, finally turned into a battlefield at this moment.

"Although what you said is a bit far-fetched, it also makes some sense." Evan said calmly, "But I want to ask you, when that poor Sister Eliza died, I was not in Delan Lille, How did I do it?"

When Evan said these words, he suddenly noticed that there was a sly smile on Colonel Mel's mouth. It was so weak, but it made Evan's heart go cold.
