Guidebook for the Dark Duke

William just came over to say hello to Evan, and then left with his new wife. Evan stood in the distance, always feeling that something was wrong, but before he had time to think about it, Old Bruce led a group of old The gentlemen came over, pointed at Evan with a smile and said, "This is my youngest son Evan, who has been studying outside since he was a child, and is now a pastor."

There was unexpected pride on his face, which made Evan a little unbelievable.

Of course, the old gentlemen are not people who can’t wink, and they immediately praised him. One said that old Bruce had given birth to a good son, and the other praised Evan’s youthful talents. Standing in this group of people, Evan was in a dilemma.

But old Bruce was not polite at all, he forced Evan to greet these people, and between pushing and changing glasses, Evan drank his glass of wine.

Since Evan came here, he found that his body is not very good for drinking, so even though it was just a glass of champagne, he was already a little dizzy, but old Bruce didn't want to let him go at all, and continued to hold him with him. Greeting everyone, Evan didn't know what he was going crazy for. Over the years, the father-son relationship between them was already a joke, and it would be a bit ridiculous to come again.

But in today's scene, Evan couldn't help but refute. Even if Evan was dissatisfied, nothing would happen on the day of William's wedding. This was not in line with his character.

After the last round of the recognition contest, Evan was a little unsteady, but the old Bruce still had more to say. He pulled Evan up to Victoria's father and said with a smile, "Joe, this is my youngest son."

Victoria's father looked at Evan in surprise. He was so similar to William that it would be a shock for anyone to see him for the first time.

"Oh, if I didn't know the inside story, I would think you gave birth to a pair of twins." Joe smiled and looked at Evan: "What a nice guy, your brother is a noble gentleman, I don't think you are bad, Peter, you really gave birth to a pair of good sons!" He said to Old Bruce with a little envy.

Old Bruce raised his chin proudly, and said very modestly: "Joe, don't worry, I know you only have one daughter, Victoria, and William will take good care of her, so don't worry."

Old Joe has only one daughter, Victoria. As long as she marries William, the entire family property will belong to the Bruce family after a hundred years.

Such a thought suddenly flashed in Evan's mind. He turned his head and glanced at Old Bruce. He still had a gentle face, which was very similar to when he was pretending. Evan couldn't help but shiver. The Bruce family, really Egoist, even he, who came from time travel, is the same.

Afterwards, the father and son talked about Evan's work with Joe, and when he learned that Evan was a pastor in Delanele, Joe couldn't help exclaiming: "Oh, what a coincidence, the fief of Duke Wilson is He has a fine castle there, at Delan Lille, do you know him?"

Evan did not expect that the old gentleman knew Duke Wilson, but after thinking about it, Duke Wilson could also be regarded as a member of the House of Lords, so it seemed that the Duke and him could be regarded as colleagues.

"Oh, I didn't expect to meet the Duke's friends here. Yes, I know the Duke. He is a devout believer. In fact, I came to London this time with Duke Wilson." Evan looked at Old Bruce while talking, not because he wanted to show how good his relationship with the Duke was, but he just hoped to use this to dispel some of Old Bruce's thoughts.

Sure enough, as soon as Evan said this, Old Bruce's face changed, and Evan couldn't help sneering in his heart. After he came, he told Old Bruce his address, but he didn't expect him to even check his address. He has no energy anywhere, and it would be ridiculous to say that he really cares about himself.

"Oh, is this true?" Joe looked at Evan in surprise, then turned his head to look at old Bruce. He had never heard old Bruce say that his youngest son had a close relationship with the Duke.

Evan smiled softly: "It's true, His Excellency the Duke is a generous gentleman." These words can only be said to the end, if you say too much, you will be suspected of intentional.

Joe seemed a little unbelievable. He had also experienced the character of the duke. It would be better to say how cold he was than how generous he was.

"I see." He looked at Evan and nodded thoughtfully. It seems that the relationship between Duke Wilson and the pastor is very good, so his marriage really produced a surprise.

But old Bruce's mood at this time was not as relaxed as he showed. He wanted to try his best to maintain the image of a father who was proud of his son, but after hearing the words that Evan had a close relationship with a duke, he felt that Somewhat confused, he endured until Evan and Joe finished the conversation, and immediately found an excuse to pull Evan to the corner. He frowned and looked at Evan's slightly flushed face, and said sharply: "You Why have you never told me about you and the Duke?"

Evan sneered in his heart, but there was some doubt on his face: "Is this a very important thing? But you didn't ask before."

Evan's words blocked old Bruce half to death. He didn't have time to ask about Evan's friendship before. Since Evan graduated, they almost only correspond once a year, which is the card sent at Christmas, Evan He didn't care at all about what happened in Delanele, and he didn't want to care.

"Didn't I tell you if I didn't ask you? You have to remember, I'm still your father! My wealth..." Old Bruce's angry words suddenly stopped, and he suddenly remembered that the original threat to William was very important to Eddie. Wen has no effect, because he does not get any of his property in the first place.

Old Bruce's face was flushed, and he gave Evan a hard look, but he didn't say a word.

"Okay, go up and rest quickly! Your current appearance really embarrasses the Bruce family!" He looked at Evan's blushing face and somewhat unsteady body with some disgust, turned and left.

Watching the old Bruce walk away, a sneer finally appeared on Evan's ignorant face. He really is a good father, and he really brought his selfish character to the extreme. He didn't stop, turned around and went to upstairs.

William stood by the dance floor, and Victoria, who was next to him, was dancing with Joe in the center of the dance floor at this time. His eyes followed his lovely fiancee all the time, with a gentle smile on his mouth.

Old Bruce walked to William angrily, looking at Victoria and Joe in the middle of the dance floor with unfriendly eyes.

William's expression remained unchanged, and he whispered: "Father, is there something wrong?"

Old Bruce snorted coldly: "I think you should have heard about your brother's wide range of friends?"

Josh is famous for his big mouth, and he can't keep all the anecdotes the most.

William lowered his head and smiled, with a gentle and calm expression: "Yes, Joe told me just now."

"What do you decide to do?" Old Bruce couldn't suppress his anger at all, and the sudden appearance of the Duke's close friend made him a little embarrassed: "Do you still decide to proceed according to the original plan?"

William raised his head, but his eyes turned into indifference.

"Father, what kind of person do you think Evan is?" He suddenly asked a wrong question.

"He..." Old Bruce couldn't help but waved his hand impatiently, "He's an idiot! Why are you asking this?"

William pursed his lips slightly, and smiled at Victoria who was waving to him: "Father, the Evan in your mind is still seven-year-old Evan, but now Evan is 24 years old." He walked slowly towards Victoria, who came down from the dance floor: "Why did he say the words of his friendship with Duke Wilson today? Because he has already noticed that we have something to do, father—" He suddenly turned his head to look at Old Bruce: "You It was too eager before."

As soon as his words fell, Victoria ran over from a distance. He gently stretched out his arms, took Victoria into his arms, and said softly, "Are you tired, do you want to take a rest?"

Victoria helped her forehead slightly dizzy. For some reason, a sense of powerlessness has filled her whole body since just now, and it is indeed getting more and more uncomfortable now.

"I...I think I need to rest." Victoria said softly, holding William's arm.

William looked at Victoria tenderly, raised his hand to stroke the top of her hair, and whispered in a slightly seductive voice: "Then you should take a good rest, the dance will be over soon."

Victoria turned around and glanced at Joe, who was standing absent-mindedly not far away, and nodded slowly.

"Okay, then I'm going to rest, but tonight you must remember not to let my father leave, I still have something to tell him."

A shadow flashed in William's eyes, but the next moment he returned to a gentle look, and nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, your father, I will definitely keep him."

After finishing speaking, William waved his hand behind him, and a maid who had been standing silently behind him suddenly stepped forward, supported Victoria, who was slightly staggering, and helped her walk towards the second floor.

William stood where he was, watching Victoria staggering towards the second floor, with complicated expressions in his eyes. Old Bruce stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, with a hint of pain in his eyes. He wanted to say something, but William suddenly looked up. He raised his hand, stopped his words, and said in a low voice: "Father, there is no need to say anything, there must be no mistakes in what happened tonight."

Old Bruce sighed and nodded.

However, William returned to his normal state and walked towards Joe who was not far away.

"William?" Joe looked at William who was alone in surprise: "Where is Victoria? Didn't she go to you?"

William smiled at Joe, and said softly: "Victoria feels a little uncomfortable, and went upstairs, and he asked me to tell you, if you want to go home, you'd better leave early, if it's late, I'm afraid the road will be unsafe. "

Speaking of this, Qiao also laughed: "Thanks to her thinking of this, I was already a little tired, and I was about to leave."

"Oh, what a coincidence, let me take you out." William said politely. He has always respected this father-in-law very much.

Joe nodded to the son-in-law in satisfaction, and patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "I'm leaving Victoria to you now, you have to treat her well." Basically, Joe is very satisfied with this son-in-law .

William nodded meekly, and sent Joe out very respectfully.
