Evan and Duke Wilson returned to the castle. Sheriff Chandler was sitting in the living room waiting and Colonel Mel was sitting beside him with an unpredictable expression.

When he saw Evan coming in, Sheriff Chandler looked a little uncomfortable. He tilted his head and didn’t dare to look directly into Evan’s eyes.

Seeing him like this, Evan’s heart sank.

“Your Excellency the Duke.” Sheriff Chandler and Colonel Mel both stood up and saluted Duke Wilson.

Duke Wilson nodded indifferently, motioning for them to sit down.

Several people sat down in the living room and Edward was also taken upstairs by Butler Chris. Duke Wilson then said, “You came this time, can I think that you have investigated this matter clearly?” Duke Wilson asked with almost no ups and downs in his voice.

Sheriff Chandler glanced at Evan, his expression didn’t look very good, he nodded heavily and said in a low voice, “Yes, I…I have investigated everything clearly.”

A dim light flashed in Duke Wilson’s eyes and he sneered, “Since you have found out, let’s talk about it. There is no need to be so embarrassed. I want to see what you can find out.”

Sheriff Chandler rubbed his head nervously and he glanced at Evan again, with a very complicated look in his eyes.

“This matter is indeed a bit weird.” Sergeant Chandler hesitated as he said this, he paused slightly, glanced at the documents at hand and continued, “I asked someone to check Ederson’s son in the nursing home where he is in, his son was really not well a few days ago and needed a lot of money to support him. At the beginning, Ederson could hardly get any money out, but suddenly one day, a big amount of money was transferred to the hospital’s account to pay for Ederson’s son’s medical expenses. After our investigation, this account was handled in the name of Colonel Mel. However, after our investigation, we found that the source of the money turned out to be from Reverend Bruce’s account, this is really…”

Sheriff Chandler couldn’t continue speaking and he glanced at Evan again, with complicated emotions in his eyes.

Evan pursed his lips and did not speak, but Duke Wilson said, “Oh? I don’t know how much money was involved? You know that Reverend Bruce is not a rich man.”

Sheriff Chandler also agrees with this very much. He is very aware of Evan’s income as a priest. Such a large amount of money is indeed a bit unbelievable.

“I, I can’t believe it too, it’s just…just according to our investigation results, the money is indeed a deposit from Reverend Bruce, which is definitely not wrong.” Sheriff Chandler said, embarrassed.

Hearing this, Evan clenched his fists. If he remembers correctly, the money should be the living expenses that Old Bruce sent him every month, but the original owner has been living a life of poverty and the money was saved. Evan didn’t know what he was thinking, but he didn’t touch the money just to respect his wishes, but now it seems that decision was a little careless and it was used by someone to frame him.

Duke Wilson turned his head and looked at Evan, as if asking for his opinion. Evan nodded slowly, “I do have a large deposit, but it is my father’s money, not mine.”

Duke Wilson is very aware of the relationship between Evan and his father. Hearing what he said, the image of Evan’s independence and unyielding nature appeared in his mind and he was filled with admiration.

But other people didn’t know as much as Duke Wilson, Colonel Mel simply sneered and said, “Reverend, even if you want to escape the crime, you shouldn’t use such a lame excuse. The money is your father’s money. What was given to you belongs to you now and of course you have to bear most of the responsibility for it.”

Of course Evan understands this truth, but at this time he is not able to really quarrel with Mel. It doesn’t fit his image at all, so Evan held back the anger in his heart, smiled lightly and said, “I haven’t taken care of this money since it was deposited in the bank. I’m still responsible as you said but I don’t know what’s going on.”

Hearing Evan’s refusal, Mel just smiled and didn’t delve into it.

Evan frowned, what is this man planning?

“Anyway.” Sheriff Chandler, who had been avoiding Evan’s gaze, finally looked at Evan, “Reverend Bruce, this matter has reached this point, you need to go to the police station with me.”

When he said this, it seemed that he almost regarded death as home.

Evan was startled and was just about to say something when Duke Wilson’s hand suddenly came up. With a sense of relief, Evan looked up at Duke Wilson, whose lips were slightly pursed and his expression was very indifferent. It seems that he was not affected by Sheriff Chandler’s words at all.

Evan’s heart finally calmed down. It seems that Duke Wilson has already prepared for this matter. Thinking of this, Evan glanced at the unpredictable Colonel Mel and the guess he had in his mind a few days ago resurfaced again. He always felt that he was getting closer to the truth, but he didn’t expect to be suddenly blocked by this sudden counterattack, but now…Evan’s eyes had a smile in them.

“Your request is very reasonable.” Duke Wilson’s tone was very calm and Sheriff Chandler was a little surprised by his calmness. He originally thought that the biggest obstacle he would have to face in this situation would be Duke Wilson, but he did not expect that the Duke would say such words.

“Then…then we won’t bother you.” Sheriff Chandler didn’t want to stay here any longer and wanted to leave after getting up.

“Please wait a moment.” Duke Wilson suddenly raised his hand to block Sheriff Chandler’s movement, and Sheriff Chandler’s heart that had been put down before hung up again.

“Although your request is very reasonable, I have to say that the premise of your request is full of loopholes.” Duke Wilson looked at Sheriff Chandler and Colonel Mel with a sneer. He waved his hand and someone immediately presented him with a thick paper bag. Duke Wilson opened the paper bag with a leisurely expression and took out a stack of documents from it.

“These things are all things I have investigated in the past few days. You can take a look to see if there are any omissions.” Duke Wilson unceremoniously threw the stack of documents to Sheriff Chandler. There was a trace of disdain in his expression.

Sheriff Chandler’s eyes were completely attracted by the document and he didn’t see the Duke’s attitude clearly.

The document was very thick and very long. Sheriff Chandler read through the document for half an hour before finishing. However, his complexion had already turned blue in an ugly way.

He looked at the Duke speechlessly, not knowing what to say for a moment.

“Duke…Your Excellency the Duke…” Sheriff Chandler’s voice was a little weak.

Duke Wilson had a fake smile on his face, with a touch of contempt, “How is it? If you think it is not enough, I still have certification.”

Speaking of which, he looked at Colonel Mel meaningfully.

Colonel Mel frowned slightly but his expression remained the same.

“No…No need, these are enough.” Obviously, those documents shocked Sheriff Chandler.

He took a deep breath, turned his head to look at Colonel Mel, and said, “Colonel, why did you do this?”

Surprised, Mel looked at Sheriff Chandler, “What are you talking about? What did I do?”

Sheriff Chandler didn’t have the patience he had when facing Duke Wilson at this time and slammed the document on the table in front of Mel.

“How long are you going to pretend to be stupid with me!? I didn’t realize that you are such a person. Reverend Bruce was running around for you, but you use this incident to frame him. I almost thought you were innocent before but now I realize that the murderer is really you!”

Sheriff Chandler was really furious at this time, so furious that he couldn’t even take care of his demeanor at this time. But Colonel Mel was still pretending to be innocent, frowning tightly, “Sheriff, what exactly do you want to say?”

Seeing his appearance, Sheriff Chandler seemed to have given up on reasoning with him and waved his hand a little dejected, “Take a look at these documents.”

Colonel Mel picked up the documents on the table. Although he still had a calm look on his face, his trembling fingertips betrayed his feelings.

Colonel Mel’s reading speed was obviously faster than Sheriff Chandler’s. It took him fifteen minutes to flip through the documents and as he read, his face gradually turned gray. He looked at Duke Wilson in despair, his lips trembled and he was unable to utter a word.

At this time, Duke Wilson, who had been watching the play, finally said, “I think you two have read this document and I think you can understand what it says with your understanding ability?” There was a sneering smile on the corners of his lips, but the anger in his eyes couldn’t be concealed. Mel dared to touch his people, which was something he absolutely couldn’t allow.

“You…why did you do this?” Mel’s trembling fingertips could hardly hold the document in his hand, he looked as though he found this new development unbelievable.

He couldn’t believe that Duke Wilson could do such a thing. In order to find out that the money was transferred from Evan’s account through his own black box operation, he almost inserted himself into most of the banking system. All the dark lines were exposed and even the dirty things he had done were also revealed. This is simply picking chestnuts from the fire. If he is not careful, the glory of the Christ family may be ruined. Looking at Duke Wilson in front of him, Mel felt that the man in front of him could really do anything.

He must be crazy! This was the only sentence left in Colonel Mel’s mind at this moment.

“Why?” Duke Wilson’s smile was cold, “At this point, do you still ask me why? You tried everything possible to frame Evan so I would like to ask you why? The money is yours. It was stolen from Evan’s account! Ederson was bribed by you too! Now tell me who killed Sister Eliza!”

Every word of Duke Wilson was like a knife, piercing straight into Mel’s heart. At this time, his face was so ugly that he looked like he was about to faint.

 

 

T/N: Of all the people Mel could frame, he just had to pick Evan. Big mistake he made there. He forgot that behind Evan, there is a mountain called Duke Wilson
