Guidebook for the Dark Duke

Chapter 114: There is a flaw

     Sheriff Chandler frowned strangely, as if he did not understand Colonel Mel's excitement.

    "Yes Colonel, I almost forgot to tell you that your wife is indeed pregnant." Sheriff Chandler said warmly.

    Colonel Mel also seemed to realize his outrageousness. He took a deep breath and tried to restrain the expression on his face.

    "This...this is really good." He lowered his head and looked at Mrs. Mel in his arms. Although his face had returned to his former calm, there was a touch of tenderness in his eyes.

    Evan stood behind and frowned, as if he had seen such an expression somewhere, he turned his head to look at Duke Wilson, and then suddenly froze, yes, he Having seen such an expression, he couldn't help bending the corners of his mouth.

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

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

    The interaction between the husband and wife completely stunned Sheriff Chandler. He did not understand why Mrs. Mel, who had been betrayed, still treated Colonel Mel so tenderly, He also didn't understand that since Colonel Mel cared so much, how could Mrs. Mel do such a thing.

    Evan's expression was flat, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes, watching the two weeping in the hallway.

    After a long time, Mrs. Mel's mood finally calmed down, and the two of them approached the living room. Colonel Mel's face was still embarrassed, but Mrs. Mel was at this time. But like a happy bird, he instructed the butler and servants to serve Colonel Mel food and black tea.

     Sheriff Chandler's face has always been ugly, Mrs. Mel's behavior is like saying that he abused Colonel Mel in the police station, although Colonel Mel was at this time The situation is indeed like being abused.

    The moment Colonel Mel saw Duke Wilson, he could not help but straighten his body, and he seemed to be slightly nervous.

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

    Duke Wilson nodded coldly and said nothing, which was also one of the conditions for him to watch.

    When everyone sat down in the living room, Sheriff Chandler couldn't wait to open the topic.

    "Colonel Mel, look at your situation, you already have a child to support, I know you must be hiding something, but it's time for you Jedi, if you don't say anything, your child will be an orphan, are you willing to cause such a result?"

     Sheriff Chandler said it bitterly, but when he said orphans, Mrs. Meyer couldn't help shivering and hugged Colonel Meyer's arm tightly.

    Colonel Mel patted the back of Mrs. Mel's hand a little embarrassedly, and nodded slightly to Sheriff Chandler: "I know your kindness, it's just me..."

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

     

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

    "Sheriff Chandler." He pursed his lips, as if he had made a huge determination: "I didn't want to say these words, but at this time I felt compelled to Having said that, it's just that some of these matters involve the secrets of Lord Wilson, and now Lord Wilson is here, I want to ask for your consent."

    After he finished speaking, he looked expectantly at Duke Wilson, Duke Wilson frowned slightly, looked at Sheriff Chandler with a slightly curious look, and then stared at Mel. Colonel's eyes, is he really going to tell what he has done for himself?

    No, he wouldn't be so stupid, if he said those things, he would still die, and now he's in a tough spot, Mel, this idiot, put the problem on the bright side! Especially... especially... He glanced at Evan, who was sitting beside him with clear eyes.

    Duke Wilson was very angry in his heart, but under such circumstances, he must not be angry, otherwise he would not be able to confirm some conjecture, and he endured the pressure and angered.

    "Just say what you want to say, there is nothing more important than your life now." Duke Wilson clenched his fists and said incredulously.

      ."

    Evan saw this place, and he felt a little cold in his heart. He twisted the corner of his clothes with his fingertips, forcing himself to listen to Colonel Mel's words.

    "You keep asking me if I have concealed something." Colonel Mel's tone was slightly low, as if with a special emotion: "Actually, it is not that I want to conceal, but I I don’t want to think about that place, but now it seems that I have to say all these things.”

    He looked at Evan at this point, as if there was no sign, so he looked straight at him.

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

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

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

    "But I have to say." Colonel Meyer finally spoke up: "Your disguise is really good."

    He was so straightforward, everyone was taken aback by his words, Duke Wilson's reaction was even more intense, he stood up directly from the sofa, looked at Mel viciously, not at all cover up.

    Mel looked at him like this, couldn't help but waved his hand with a smile: "Sir Duke, don't worry, you will have time to react when you finish listening to me."

    Duke Wilson's expression was not relieved because of this. He looked at Mel coldly, as if he was looking at a dead man, and Mel still looked gentle, as if he had no feelings.

    The atmosphere suddenly froze.

    At this moment, a warm hand touched 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'm sure Colonel Mel will take responsibility 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, just patience and calm.

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

    On Duke Wilson's side, he was softened by Evan's words, and he obediently was led by Evan to sit on the sofa, his face softened a lot than before.

     Sheriff Chandler seemed relieved to have escaped, he couldn't help but glance at Evan, he didn't realize that Evan had such an influence on Duke Wilson great.

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

    After he finished speaking, he lowered his head, pondered for a moment, and finally spoke again: "Although Pastor Bruce seems to be a noble and pure teaching staff, whether you Arya's disposition (Dr. Hester, who had come for a follow-up consultation, couldn't help but raise his head when he said this) and his salutation to the respectable Mr. Verde, I feel, you It is a person who I think is very worthy of my attention. When everyone is on the opposite side of you, it seems that they are so vulnerable. You don't even need to take a shot, and others will help you solve all difficulties. Maybe once or twice I It will feel nothing, but it has always been like this, but it makes me understand that you are not as innocent and harmless as you appear."

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

    Evan's expression did not change at all, he was still so kind and gentle, when Mel said the last sentence, he couldn't help but smile: "It's not just you, Sometimes I myself thank God for his mercy on me that I was able to escape these misfortunes."

    Colonel Mel couldn't help laughing sarcastically: "Oh, my dear pastor, this has nothing to do with God. You are here today, and it is entirely the result of your own efforts."

    Such sarcasm was so sharp, Sheriff Chandler couldn't help frowning: "Colonel Mel, Pastor Bruce has done a lot in your case this time, how can you So slander him, this time we want to find the murderer, please don't talk about irrelevant topics."

     Sheriff Chandler's words finally made Mel straighten up, he looked straight at Evan, and his tone was very firm: "You have been asking me again before, who can tell me The relationship between Eliza, then I will tell you today, in the process of my relationship with Eliza, I have used all my means to avoid this relationship from being known, everyone sitting here, I'm afraid even the Duke doesn't know, but there is one person you have ignored all the time, and that is Pastor Bruce! I swear to God, the only one who knows about this is Pastor Bruce!"

    This paragraph of Mel's words shocked almost everyone, he was right, there were so many people present, indeed only Evan was hinted at the relationship between them before this relationship, but...but no one ever thinks of Evan in this thing, it's really...

    "Nonsense!" Duke Wilson finally couldn't bear Mel's slander of Evan, and stood up suddenly from the sofa: "How dare you! How dare you!" His fingers trembled pointed at Mel, his eyes were red, as if he was already in a hurry.

    Mel still looked leisurely, he glanced at Sheriff Chandler and the calm Evan next to him, and continued: "I never doubted Bruce before. Pastor, however, I heard a few days ago that Mr. Pastor had asked someone to visit Eliza's monastery, and I understood that you are not someone you can trust. Didn't tell anyone about it!"

    Evan's eyes finally turned cold at this time, Mel was right, he did ask his enthusiastic cook Mrs. Haydn to visit Eli at the abbey before leaving Sha, speaking of it, it was just his own ridiculous sympathy, and he completely forgot about it afterward, but at this time it became a weapon to attack him.

                                                 Sen and the innocent Arya can't exist, we all have to disappear, so everyone who is close to the Duke, no matter who they are, except Pastor Bruce, is haunted by bad luck, if it's just one, it's fine, then So many people, can't explain the problem?"

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

    Evan looked at him, but his heart was calm, he even had time to think, this matter finally revealed flaws.

    He slowly stood up from the sofa. This living room that seemed warm and peaceful at first finally turned into a battlefield at this time.

    "Although what you said is a bit far-fetched, it also makes sense." Evan said calmly: "But I want to ask you, when the poor Mother Eliza died, I'm not in Derain, how did I do it?"

    When Evan said these words, he suddenly noticed that Colonel Mel's mouth showed a wicked smile. It was so weak, but it made Evan's heart cool.
