Guidebook for the Dark Duke

William walked down the stairs, saw Evan standing there, and waved to him lightly.

"Have you eaten yet? If you finish eating, accompany me to pick up the bride." He stood still a few steps away from Evan, and said to Evan with a gentle face, as if the two of them were Really close brother like.

Evan couldn't laugh at this time. He felt that the current situation was a little weird. Although he knew that he should be very similar to William before, he didn't know that the two of them were so similar.

"It's better for you and Hugh to go there." Old Bruce gave Evan a meaningful look: "Evan still needs to help me if he stays here."

After hearing this, William couldn't help smiling, and the face that originally resembled Evan became more gentle.

"Okay then." He nodded to Evan and walked out.

And the young man whom Evan had just met hurriedly chased after him, and took another look at Evan before leaving. Maybe the two of them are really too similar.

After William and his friends left, the whole hall seemed a bit empty. Old Bruce walked up to Evan with complicated eyes.

"Go and entertain the guests, today is your brother's big day, you have to be careful." Although he tried his best to speak gentle words, he still seemed a little stiff.

Evan nodded, since he came to Bruce's house, he had to make some kind of compromise.

Evan basically didn't know the people who came today, but these people recognized him at a glance by his and William's imaginary appearance. Fortunately, there was Rose butler to assist, otherwise Evan didn't know how to end up .

As time went by, more and more people came, until finally the entire Bruce family's castle was immersed in laughter and laughter, and Evan saw a white carriage slowly driving along the wide boulevard in front of the castle. Come.

Old Bruce had received the report a long time ago, his face was flushed, and he led the guests out of the house to welcome the arrival of the bride and groom.

Evan was also among the bustling guests, but he didn't have much interest in the wedding and just stayed in a less conspicuous place.

Not long after, Evan heard fierce applause and cheers erupting in front of him. He couldn't see exactly what happened, but he also roughly understood that the bride and groom should have arrived.

Then the resonant voice of old Bruce came over, and he praised the marriage of William and Victoria with great emotion, and then greeted each other with Victoria's father with a smile.

Not long after, a group of people walked towards the castle. Evan took a careful look at Victoria in a white wedding dress. She had brown hair and green eyes, and a slim figure. She was indeed a beauty.

Old Bruce and Victoria's father exchanged warm words, while William let Victoria hold his arm in a very gentlemanly way, with a gentle smile on his face.

If you ignore the weird atmosphere before, Evan has to sigh that it was a match made in heaven, but it was too weird before, and Evan still has a little precaution in his heart at this time.

The subsequent wedding was very grand. They swore to exchange rings in a local church, and then returned to the castle of the Bruce family to celebrate. Old Bruce seemed to have invited everyone he could. A hundred people participated, if there were not enough servants in the whole scene, I'm afraid it would get out of control.

But even in such a joyful and exciting scene, there was still nothing wrong with Evan. Since the weird meeting and conversation at the beginning, Old Bruce and William seemed to have almost forgotten his existence and never looked for him again. Evan He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. To be honest, in this wedding, he would rather play a silent role than deal with the father and son.

Evan was on pins and needles at the wedding, but Duke Wilson did not give in at this time. He walked around the room almost agitatedly. Old Bruce's unusual urging and invitation to Evan also made him suspicious, but Unlike Evan who was waiting to die, he immediately sent someone to investigate the matter.

But until today, the person he sent out to inquire about the news has been away for three days, but there is still no news, and today is the wedding, but for some reason, he always feels a little flustered in his heart.

Just when Duke Wilson had turned around the house for almost a hundred times, there was a knock on the door suddenly.

Duke Wilson quickly walked to the door and opened the door, and the calm and staid face of Butler Chris appeared outside the door.

"My lord, Kevin please see me."

Kevin was really the person Duke Wilson sent out to investigate this matter.

"Let him in!" Duke Wilson said almost impatiently.

Butler Chris gave Duke Wilson a slightly surprised look, but he turned and left without saying anything.

A moment later, a lean little man appeared at the other end of the stairs. Duke Wilson frowned at him and said in a low voice, "Come in!"

Kevin was taken aback by Duke Wilson standing at the door, and hurried in, bending over to salute.

"My lord, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

"Stop talking nonsense! Tell me how your investigation is going?" Duke Wilson asked impatiently with these red tapes.

Kevin couldn't help shaking. He didn't expect the Duke to take this matter so seriously. When he clearly ordered him, he just ordered it casually.

"Yes." He didn't dare to think about it, and immediately said: "I checked Master Bruce according to your instructions, and I didn't find anything unusual about him, but I found that the elder brother of Pastor Bruce, Mr. William Bruce , was diagnosed with tuberculosis two months ago, he probably won't live for two years."

Speaking of this, Kevin couldn't help shaking. Tuberculosis in this era is like death, and ordinary people have no room for resistance.

Duke Wilson was stunned when he heard the news. Evan's brother got tuberculosis?But today he...

Duke Wilson couldn't help frowning: "Does his fiancee know about his illness?"

When Kevin mentioned this, his expression became a little unnatural. He secretly glanced at Duke Wilson, and said in a low voice: "He...he...he did this very secretly, and I also spent a lot of effort It was only found out, and his fiancée probably didn't know about it."

In Kevin's opinion, what the Bruce family did was really unethical, but he was also very clear about the position of Pastor Bruce in Duke Wilson's heart, so his words were more tactful.

Duke Wilson's expression became more and more ugly. He had seen the invitation letter they sent to Evan before. He had seen the bride's name before. She was the daughter of a member of Parliament who had a good relationship with him. The earl's younger brother and his wife are from a famous family, so the family is very prosperous, and they also value this daughter very much. It is impossible for him to marry his daughter to a man who has tuberculosis.

Did Bruce want to cheat on the marriage?This was the first idea that popped up in Duke Wilson's mind, and he immediately vetoed it. Even if he is married now, this matter will be discovered sooner or later. Taking the risk of offending a congressman is really not worth the candle .

Duke Wilson suddenly fell into deep thought, what exactly does Old Bruce want to do?Not only did he conceal the illness of his eldest son, but he also called Evan back in a hurry.

Thinking of this, Duke Wilson's heart suddenly moved, Evan!He couldn't help but a series of terrible thoughts appeared in his mind. Could it be that he wanted to marry that woman to Evan?

"Which Master Bruce is the one getting married today?" Duke Wilson clenched his fists tightly, his eyes terrified.

To him, this thought was like the end of the world.

"Ah?" Kevin looked at Duke Wilson in surprise. Isn't this obvious?

"Yes, it's Master William Bruce." Although Duke Wilson's reaction was somewhat strange, Kevin still replied obediently.

Although Duke Wilson was relieved to hear this answer, he still couldn't help thinking about the worst: "Are you sure?"

Kevin felt more and more baffled: "Master Duke, I saw with my own eyes that Master William Bruce married Miss Victoria's family and picked him up. Although he looks almost exactly like Pastor Bruce, Mr. Pastor is definitely not as weak as him." Wen said very confidently.

Duke Wilson suddenly turned his head and looked at Kevin: "What did you say?" He stared at Kevin with a very rare panic in his eyes.

Kevin was taken aback and couldn't help taking a step back, but Duke Wilson pushed forward, grabbed his shoulders tightly, and asked viciously, "Say it again!"

Kevin was trembling with fright, he had never seen Duke Wilson so furious.

"I...I, I said I saw William Bruce go to meet the bride with blue eyes. He...he looks exactly like Pastor Bruce!" Kevin finally grasped the point of what he just said at this time, and his expression instantly changed. Turn pale, won't it...

Duke Wilson gasped, and let go of the hands that were holding Kevin. William and Evan looked exactly the same. Just saying this sentence, Duke Wilson could think of many terrible things. Old Bruce is a man who is greedy for power. People, it is impossible for him to give up such a solid backer as Victoria's father, he will definitely do his best to seize this marriage, Duke Wilson is very sure of this.

So even though he didn't know what old Bruce was going to do at this time, the panic in his heart made him restless.

"Get ready for the car! I'm going to Bruce's house!" Duke Wilson's tone was very cold.

**

Evan sat in the living room, looked at William and Victoria in the middle of the dance floor, and narrowed his eyes slightly. After the buffet in the afternoon, there was another grand ball in the evening. Old Bruce spent a lot of money this time.

After the song ended, William walked out of the dance floor holding Victoria's hand, and it was time to leave, Evan thought so, with William's body, even a dance would be enough.

But what Evan didn't expect was that William was walking in his direction, leading Victoria by the hand.

Evan frowned slightly, but stood up anyway.

"Brother William, Miss Victoria." He nodded slightly, with perfect etiquette.

William smiled at him very gently: "Victoria, this is my brother Evan."

Victoria couldn't help exclaiming the moment she saw Evan, he and William were so similar.

"Oh William, I didn't believe what you said before, it's amazing, Evan and you are so similar." Victoria couldn't help laughing.

William still nodded reservedly: "The Bruce family has always had a very obvious family imprint. Evan and I have the same mother, so we are naturally alike."

When Evan heard this statement for the first time, he couldn't help but glanced at William, but William didn't look at Evan, but casually took out twice the amount of champagne and a glass of white water from the passing male servant, and handed the champagne to After seeing Evan and Victoria, he smiled and said, "I can't drink, you don't mind."

Evan smiled very politely, clinked glasses with him and Victoria lightly, and took a sip of the wine.
