Guidebook for the Dark Duke

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

Her originally red eye sockets also turned cold now.

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

Mrs. Johnson's tone was sad and sad, which made Evan feel a little creepy.

At this time, Fuld was not as eloquent as before. He just sat aside with a smile and watched thoughtfully as Evan and Mrs. Johnson confronted each other.

Evan couldn't help but gritted his teeth, this Fold was really coming for him.

"Mrs. Johnson." Evan looked at Mrs. Johnson with a gentle expression: "Of course I am very willing to help you, but this matter is out of my control, and I am powerless. Besides, Mr. Johnson made such a decision How can I speak for God when he is ashamed?"

Evan tried his best to appear benevolent but powerless. This matter was originally a very complicated case, and he should not intervene without authorization now.

Mrs. Johnson looked at Evan, and finally there was a trace of despair in her eyes. She gritted her teeth, stood up abruptly, closed her eyes, and tears flowed down her cheeks. She sobbed: "Since you are so forced Me, then I don’t need to worry about anything anymore, everything I have now is all mine, if you want to take it away, then I will be destroyed.”

She opened her eyes with determination.

Evan was a little intimidated by her aura. In Evan's view, anyone who could die should not be messed with.

But Fuld was not frightened 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. Because after all, this is a major event of the church, he cannot stand by and watch.

"You want to burn jade and stone together?" Fuld snorted coldly: "That's fine, I tell you clearly that the church's property cannot accept any loss in any sense. If you don't make compensation, the church will take back your property no matter what. The house, as for yourself, we have nothing to do with it."

What Fuld said was extremely cold-blooded, and Sheriff Chandler couldn't help jumping up: "Mr. Fuld!" He glared at Fuld: "How can you say such cold-blooded words! Mrs. Johnson has already It's so pitiful, do you still want to force her like this?"

Seeing Sergeant Chandler's angry look, Fuld did not change the expression on his face, smiled and said: "Captain Chandler, you are really a warm-hearted person, if you are not satisfied with my handling , then it is the same for you to help Mrs. Johnson pay off the arrears."

With a word from Ford, Sergeant Chandler was completely blocked. He blushed and couldn't say a word. Although he can be regarded as a gentleman, his income is just too much for his face. Evan is not as good, not to mention he still has a big family to support, how can he repay such a large sum of money.

Ferd coldly looked around at the people around him, finally looked at the calm Duke Wilson, even raised the corners of his mouth, and finally stopped his eyes on the sad face of Mrs. Johnson. After these few days of contact, He clearly realized that this woman was not an ordinary middle-aged woman, her heart was even crueler than a man's, and he didn't believe anything about saying that everything was destroyed.

"Okay, Mrs. Johnson." Fuld's tone softened a little: "The church understands your situation, and we will not force you to pay back immediately. As the agent of the church this time, I can assure you , the church will give you three months to raise this money. Before that, we will not disturb your life, but please understand that the church is not a weak object that can be bullied. If you want to forgive the arrears, you should give up."

Ferd's words finally eased the tense scene a little bit, and Sergeant Chandler's previously tense face also eased a little bit, at least there was no word that forced people to death.

After hearing this, Evan couldn't help but glanced at Fuld. It's a good way to push people to the extreme first, and then to give some sweetness. Not only can he achieve his goal, but also let this person be grateful to you. sharp.

After hearing this, Mrs. Johnson's expression changed slightly. Finally, she raised her head and looked at Fuld with tears in her eyes. She wiped her wet cheeks with a handkerchief, and then said softly: "Thank you for your generosity. , I will seize the time to raise funds."

Ferd nodded casually, and then sat down.

Duke Wilson didn't finally speak until Folde sat down, "Since the two of you have reached an agreement, please leave. I have something to do later."

Duke Wilson's words were very cold and merciless. Everyone present looked at the Duke in surprise. In the eyes of everyone, the Duke has always been cautious and courteous. This embarrassing scene , they have barely seen.

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

Everyone couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. The Duke's gesture is equivalent to driving someone away.

In the end, Folde reacted faster. He immediately bowed to the Duke and said with a smile, "Then I will take my leave first. I will trouble you today."

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

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

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

Evan turned around and looked at Duke Wilson with some doubts.

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

They came to his manor and bullied his people. Such a situation made Duke Wilson unbearable.

Evan didn't understand Duke Wilson's mentality, and sighed: "I understand your thoughts very well. This matter is too weird. Mrs. Johnson's backlash really caught me by surprise. I didn't expect Mr. Johnson to Not a penny was left behind.”

Speaking of this, the Duke of Wilson couldn't help but sneered: "You are too kind, saying that you didn't leave any money, it's just that she was greedy for property. They are husband and wife, and Mr. Johnson can't do anything about money. Mrs. Johnson's."

Hearing what Duke Wilson said, Evan couldn't help but stagnate. 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 such an idea , I have always believed that human nature is inherently good, and until I get more information, I will not use malice to speculate on human nature.”

Hearing what he said, Duke Wilson was speechless for a while. He looked at Evan with a complicated expression, and couldn't help sighing in his heart. Such people would exist in this world. He absolutely cannot let these people today, Drag him into the dark abyss.

Although someone like Duke Wilson is not good at reasoning, he is more sensitive to the malice of human nature than anyone else. Mrs. Johnson's scene today was too deliberate. He almost cried at the moment Mrs. Johnson was crying. I realized that Mrs. Johnson was not as pitiful as she said. Today's scene, except for Evan and the confused Sheriff Chandler, was not simple for everyone.

Duke Wilson looked at Evan's side face with a vague expression. He must investigate this matter clearly. He must know the past between Evan and Fold. He must know that he cannot bear that Evan has a life without himself. .

Duke Wilson sent Evan back to the second floor as before, 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 person had an ordinary face, but he was dressed like a gentleman. He was very neat and tidy. When he saw the Duke coming in, he was fine. After making a fuss, he stood up gracefully, took off his hat dramatically and saluted the Duke: "Your Excellency."

Duke Wilson walked past this man expressionlessly, without even raising his eyebrows. He walked straight to the back of the desk, and after sitting down, he raised his hand: "Sit down, Edson."

A smile appeared on the corner of Adelson's mouth, and he sat down slowly: "My lord, you haven't summoned me for a long time, what's the important thing here?"

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

Edson was a little surprised when he heard this, and raised his head to look at Duke Wilson: "Pastor Bruce?"

He is the Duke's staff member and a townsman of Delanele, so he naturally knows Pastor Bruce, a faithful believer in God, and a young priest who is kind enough to be annoying.

"Is there something wrong with this pastor?" This was Adelson'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 to cause any problems."

After hearing this, Adelson's playful smile disappeared immediately. He stood up with a solemn expression, looking at Duke Wilson very intently.

"Has your relationship with Pastor Bruce reached the point where you need to investigate the background?"

His question was so solemn that it almost made Duke Wilson a little overwhelmed.

"You don't need to ask about this kind of thing." His answer was a little guilty: "You just need to do what I told you."

Edson raised his head halfway, looked at Duke Wilson's hand holding his cuff, and suddenly felt a little bad in his heart, what happened to the person who made Duke Wilson so nervous?Although he hasn't communicated with the Duke these days, he has been paying attention to the Duke's every move. The Duke was assassinated, and the entire Duke's manor's contacts rushed to the capital. The prince who committed suicide is afraid that at this time It was already very uncomfortable, and he hadn't paid much attention to Pastor Bruce, who saved the Duke's name. Now that he thought about it, it was a very strange phenomenon that he was able to stay in the Duke's mansion to recuperate until now.

Adelson clenched his fists, and a flash of determination flashed across his otherwise plain face. He still had to think about this matter.
