Guidebook for the Dark Duke

Early the next morning, Evan went to visit the Duke's mansion with Mrs. Sanders.

He didn't want to wait until the Duke almost forgot about the promise and came to make fun of himself. He just wanted to deepen Duke Wilson's impression of himself while the matter had not been forgotten by the Duke.

The Cornish Manor is the largest manor in the whole of Derlenlea, no, it should be said that it is the largest manor in the whole of Yorkshire. The land around him is endless, and there are thousands of tenants under him. His main castle is as luxurious as a king's castle , Cornish Manor is a legend in Delanleil, the pride of every Delanleil resident and their spiritual pillar.

Evan walked on the grass of the Cornwall manor, surrounded by fragrant aromas. The roses in the garden were as bright as the sun, and the elegant and classic castle exuded an elegant atmosphere under the sunlight.

Evan squinted his eyes and looked at the scene in front of him. Before he came here, he also had money and status, but he had never been like this Duke. This kind of power was completely unimaginable to him before, Evan There was a sudden eagerness in his eyes. If it was just a vague concept before, then at this moment he finally firmed up his thoughts. He coveted the duke and the power he possessed. He must not let these things that fall into the wrong hands.

Evan and Mrs. Sanders were welcomed into the living room by the butler of the Cornwall manor. The Duke was meeting his lawyer at this time, and he would come down to see them in an hour.

Evan was in a slightly depressed mood, but Mrs. Sanders was sitting quietly on the sofa with a familiar look, tasting the black tea brought by the butler.

Evan sat for a while, feeling a little bored. In his opinion, no matter who it is, as long as he spends more than 5 minutes with Mrs. Sanders, he will feel bored.

Evan stood up, and the butler hurried forward to ask him if he needed anything. Evan shook his head: "I want to go outside for a walk."

The butler looked at Mrs. Sanders with some embarrassment. Mrs. Sanders still looked down at the teacup in her hand, and did not notice the butler's gaze.

Evan looked at the butler with a soft but undeniable smile, and the butler finally had to bow his head and agree.

Evan left the room and finally felt relieved. The almost frozen scene just now made him a little breathless. Evan walked along the lawn in front of the castle towards the lake. He walked to the lake and sat down. Surrounded by the breath of water vapor, Evan has loved water since his last life. Swimming is as easy as breathing for him, but coming to this place and becoming a priest, this hobby may have to say goodbye to him. Fishing is possible, swimming is fine.

But at this moment, suddenly there was a sound of falling water from the other side of the lake, and Evan jumped up alertly. He looked in the direction of the sound, but saw a pair of hands struggling on the water.

Evan ran over quickly, but found that the heroine Aliya was standing there at a loss. Evan suddenly realized who the person who fell into the lake was, the only son of the Duke of Wilson, Lord Edward.

In the novel, the Lord fell into the water and was rescued by the hostess. After that, the Duke became interested in the hostess until the final love was deeply rooted.

This idea just flashed in Evan's mind, but in reality, he hardly paused, and plunged headlong into the lake in front of Alia, who was still immersed in shock.

The place where little Edward drowned was not far from the shore, and Evan reached him after only two swims. In the lake, Owen was like a fish in water. He picked up little Edward with one hand, perhaps because of fear, although Evan had already picked up Little Edward, but he was still struggling and almost broke free from Evan's arms. Evan didn't let his hands go soft at this time, and chopped Edward on the back of the neck with one hand, knocking him unconscious, and then paddling water, towards the Swim to the shore, with a look of trying his best on his face.

Fortunately, Aliya was not stupid to the end. In this moment, she had already run in and called someone out. The housekeeper Chris ran fast in front, followed by a few servants, and the Duke also looked towards the lake in shock. While running, Evan hooked the corners of his mouth invisibly, pretending to be exhausted, and hugged little Edward up, while he sank into the lake.

Evan relaxed his body, the warm lake water around him made him feel very comfortable, but after a while, someone jumped down, his shoulders were tightly grabbed by someone, and he was dragged towards the water surface, Evan struggled slightly, Then someone grabbed the back of the neck and raised it directly to the surface of the water.

Fresh air poured into his nostrils in an instant, and he was dragged ashore. Someone roughly squeezed his chest, trying to squeeze out the water poured into his mouth and nose, but Evan didn't drown at all, so he didn't die at all. Can't squeeze water out.

Fortunately, Alia's father, Dr. Hester, was a sensible person, and hurriedly said: "Pastor Bruce may be exhausted. Help him up quickly and pat him on the back."

As soon as he finished speaking, a servant helped Evan up and patted him on the back vigorously. Evan coughed a few times in a hypocritical manner, and finally opened his eyes.

He saw little Edward lying in the arms of Duke Wilson. At this time, Wilson was completely without the arrogance and indifference before. He frowned very tightly, and asked in a low voice to Dr. Hester next to him, "Is he all right?" ?”

Dr. Hester wiped the water from Lord Edward's face. This is a very beautiful child with curly black hair, delicate facial features, white and red lips, just like a doll. At this time, the curly hair is wet with water, Against his pale face, he looked a little pitiful.

"The water in the lord's chest has been squeezed out just now, and it should be fine now." Dr. Hester's face was a little ugly. Edward drowned when he was with Alia, and she couldn't blame her.

When Duke Wilson heard this, the expression on his face eased. He stood up with Edward in his arms, first nodded at Evan who was being helped by Mrs. Sanders who was driven over, and then said: "Bruce Reverend, I don't know how to express my gratitude for your heroic rescue today. You will be my friend Charles Kirst in the future, and you will be the most honored guest at Cornwall Manor at any time. "

After he finished speaking, he turned his face and looked at the anxious Aliya, and his expression turned cold: "Doctor Hester, please also try not to bring Miss Aliya with you when you come to Cornwall Manor in the future. I don't want to see her again."

The Duke's words were already considered harsh, and Dr. Hester couldn't help shivering, but Alia was ashamed and didn't say anything surprising.

Duke Wilson walked away with little Edward in his arms. Evan stood crookedly on the spot, looking at his slender back, with a smile flashing in his eyes. It turned out that his name was Charles.

This tone gently crossed Evan's lips, with a hint of ambiguity.

Mrs. Sanders didn't hear Evan's whispers, she just looked at Evan with some blame, and said sharply: "How can you be so reckless, shouldn't you go to someone for help at this time? How can you risk yourself? ?”

Evan lowered his eyebrows and smiled: "In such an urgent time, how can I think so much, Lord Edward is still a child, if it is delayed for a long time, I'm afraid it will not be good."

After Mrs. Sanders heard this, the expression on her face was a bit softer, but the words in her mouth were still cold: "If Pastor Bruce didn't insist on going out to relax, you wouldn't have encountered such a thing, and you should do it less in the future." Such a superfluous thing.”

Evan smiled helplessly. He brushed the wet blond hair in front of his forehead, and said warmly: "You are right, I will not do this again, but I am soaked all over now, let me change into a clean one first. clothes."

As soon as Evan's words fell, Butler Chris walked up to Evan with a few male servants, and said respectfully: "Mr. Pastor, the Duke, please go inside and change into dry clothes."

Mrs. Sanders looked at Butler Chris with some vigilance, but this standard British butler didn't care about Mrs. Sanders. He asked two servants to support Evan, and then walked towards the castle go.

Mrs. Sanders gave Butler Chris a look of annoyance, but still followed.

Butler Chris helped Evan to the guest room on the second floor, and then brought a new set of clothes. Evan took a rough look at the material and size of the clothes. He was sure that this might be the Duke's clothes, but look at this It should be completely new clothes that have not been worn, Evan shook his head in disappointment, and quickly changed into clothes.

After Evan changed his clothes, he walked downstairs. When he came to the living room, he found Duke Wilson sitting in the living room with a glass of brandy in his hand.

Evan paused slightly, and finally walked forward: "My lord Duke." Evan nodded slightly.

Duke Wilson raised his head to look at him when he heard the voice, with a hint of confusion in his eyes: "Priest Bruce." He seemed to finally see Evan's face clearly, and murmured.

Evan couldn't help squinting his eyes, and his eyes wandered down the handsome side face of Duke Wilson. Perhaps because of the surge of alcohol, there was a faint blush on his cheeks, and his whole person showed a slightly drunken look. The state is not at all the same as his usual abstinent appearance. Evan felt like grass had grown in his heart, and suddenly there was some commotion.

"Mrs. Sanders has left, Pastor Bruce, you should stay today. Edward is not feeling well right now. I want you to pray for him." Duke Wilson quickly regained his sanity and resumed his usual routine. rigorous.

Evan raised his eyebrows slightly. It was a not very solemn expression, but there was an unusually harmonious beauty on his face.

"As long as I can help Lord Edward, I am obliged." Since there is such a good thing delivered to your door, Evan will naturally not refuse.

Duke Wilson nodded, with a hint of indifference in his expression. For his class, others can only please him, so Pastor Bruce's reaction did not exceed his expectations.

But his performance is very dazzling to Evan. He has never been so clearly aware of the power of class in this era.
