Chapter 115: 121

“Lady?” Evan frowned as he looked at Mrs Sanders, “Is it someone I know?”

Mrs Sanders seemed a little embarrassed, and said, “No…this lady, I don’t know her. I haven’t seen her before.”

Evan probably had a guess in his heart, and replied, “I see, thank you.”

Mrs Sanders nodded with a stiff face, turned and went in.

Evan stood at the door, hesitating for a moment. Duke Wilson started having many dark thoughts in his heart when he looked at him behaving like this, but in the end he restrained his thoughts and said, “You and I will go in together.”

His words were very firm, without giving Evan any room to refute.

Evan had a wry smile on his lips, “Charles, you might scare my father.”

Evan’s words were the truth. Since the last time Duke Wilson picked him up from Bruce’s house, old Bruce didn’t dare to contact him for half a month, but this time he finally got the courage to come, and it’s also because Bruce’s family is really in a stormy situation.

Duke Wilson snorted coldly with disdain, “He dared to scheme against you like that, so he should know the consequences of such schemes and calculations.”

Evan shook his head helplessly. He knew the Duke’s character very well, and he was afraid that old Bruce would be returning empty-handed this time. And in his own heart…

Evan pursed his lips. If he said that he had some doubts before, he has completely put aside such thoughts at this time, although an independent status will make him feel comfortable and he was indeed tempted, but if that means a risk of losing the Duke, he would never do it.

Evan and Duke Wilson walked into the church together. They walked through the prayer hall and walked to the living room at the back. Old Bruce and the lady were sitting in the room where Evan usually stayed, looking a little nervous.

Seeing Evan coming in, he quickly stood up from his chair, but when he saw Duke Wilson following behind Evan, his expression changed drastically and he couldn’t help taking a step back, with many bad feelings in his heart, many bad ideas flooded his heart.

“Father.” Evan nodded slightly to old Bruce, his eyes lightly swept over the too young lady.

She still looks like a little girl, does old Bruce really want him to marry this woman? Evan frowned.

“Evan.” Old Bruce tried his best to control the timidity he felt in his heart and nodded slightly. He licked his dry lips and then said, “I didn’t expect you to come too, Your Excellency the Duke.” He bent over to salute Duke Wilson.

Duke Wilson looked at Old Bruce with a cold expression, without saying a word and the atmosphere in the room became tense.

Old Bruce’s cold sweat was dripping down his forehead, he kept winking at Evan who was standing aside, hoping he could do something but Evan didn’t seem to see it and still did not say a word.

Old Bruce was angry in his heart, but he didn’t dare to say anything more, so he could only swallow his anger and continue, “My lord, I have some personal things that I want to say to Evan alone. I don’t know if it’s convenient?”

He didn’t understand why the Duke was so idle, spending all his time with Evan.

Duke Wilson sneered when he heard this. He glanced at the shy lady sitting in the corner with a knife-like gaze and said sarcastically, “Your thoughts are so straightforward, I don’t think you need to be given privacy. Last time you failed to rely on Miss Victoria to use Evan, did you change to someone else this time?”

As soon as Duke Wilson said this, the lady who was quietly sitting in the corner, her face turned pale in an instant and she raised her head to look at Duke Wilson in horror and she looked humiliated.

Duke Wilson looked at her expression but just sneered, “What’s the matter, lady? Am I wrong? You came all the way to Delanlier, so I want to ask you, what exactly did you come here for? What’s your idea?”

The lady didn’t seem to be the type to swallow her anger, she immediately stood up and said loudly, “What’s my idea? My father gave the Bruce family a lot of money to protect the entire Bruce family so that the manor will not go bankrupt. The entire Bruce family should be grateful to me instead of insulting me!”

Duke Wilson just raised his eyebrows at her words, “So you found a merchant’s daughter for Evan?” He looked at old Bruce with a half-smile, with unknown emotions brewing in his eyes.

Old Bruce’s heart suddenly rose and he hurriedly tried to appease the lady, “Mary, sit down first, I believe the Duke didn’t mean to insult you. Besides, this is a matter between you and Evan, I don’t think Duke Wilson will oppose Evan’s decision.”

Old Bruce looked at Evan who was standing aside with confidence, he believed that his previous letter had already explained the current situation very well. As long as Evan is not crazy, he will definitely accept the conditions he proposed. After all, in this era, a manor owner has a very attractive social status, which is completely different from that of a poor priest.

After hearing what Old Bruce said, Evan frowned slightly. He turned his head, looked at Old Bruce’s eyes that were full of expectation and said in a low voice, “I’m really sorry, Father, I have no intention of getting married. I will spend my whole life dedicated to the church, I hope you can understand.”

“What?” Old Bruce looked at Evan in shock, as if he was looking at a lunatic, he did not want to give up the authority of the entire manor even if time was running out. All his life, he had been guaranteeing his rights to the entire manor. He couldn’t believe that a person would be so crazy as to give up the inheritance of a manor.

“Are you crazy? If you don’t inherit the manor, Bruce’s manor will be taken back by the owner after I die and you will get nothing!” Old Bruce had long forgotten the threat of Duke Wilson as he spoke loudly.

Evan smiled softly and any emotional changes couldn’t be seen, “I’m very sober and this is my own decision. If it leads to any consequences, then I won’t have any complaints.”

Old Bruce couldn’t believe it. Looking at Evan, he was too shocked to say a word.

However, Duke Wilson’s expression softened completely at this time. He looked at Evan with a gentle expression, as if he was looking at some rare treasure.

For him, Evan gave up the inheritance of a manor. He was very aware of the influence and wealth of a manor owner in this era, but he gave up all of these for himself.

“What the hell are you doing?” The lady who saw her identity as the hostess of a manor flying away finally couldn’t help it, “You promised me before!” She looked angrily at the pale old Bruce, “We paid so much money, it’s not for doing charity!”

Old Bruce was on the verge of collapse now and Mary’s words hit him even more, he almost looked madly at Evan and rushed to him, held his shoulders and said loudly, “You can’t treat me like this, you must inherit the Bruce Manor! You must marry Mary! Otherwise, the entire Bruce family will be destroyed!”

Evan looked straight at Old Bruce and stopped Duke Wilson who wanted to come forward to help. He grabbed Old Bruce’s arm and pulled them off his body. He looked at Old Bruce, smiled coldly and said coldly, “I’m really sorry, I don’t care at all.”

His smile was so cold and abrupt that Old Bruce was stunned for a moment and he stared blankly at Evan, as if he never knew his son.

Evan shook off old Bruce’s hands with some annoyance, turned around and walked to Duke Wilson, and said, “I want to leave this place, let’s go.”

Duke Wilson looked at Evan with a burning look, as if it was the discovery of a new World. Although he could see Evan’s indifference hidden under his gentle appearance before, he had never seen his performance so intuitively. Seeing him now, he only felt…really excited, so excited that his blood was about to boil.

“Okay.” He restrained the excitement in his heart and only uttered this word as his whole body trembled slightly.

The two of them walked out one after the other, leaving only old Bruce and Mary looking at each other.

When they got into the carriage again, Duke Wilson couldn’t wait to jump on Evan and gag Evan’s mouth.

Evan looked slightly surprised at the person who was clinging to him, trying to kiss him with trembling lips. He smiled, wrapped his arms around his waist and kissed him instead.

Evan’s kisses have always been rude and full of control. Duke Wilson was not his opponent at all and fell limply into Evan’s arms after two or three kisses.

Evan sucked his lips and tongue until his face was flushed and he was a little out of breath. Then he let him go, but he still held him in his arms and whispered, “What’s wrong with you?”

Duke Wilson was dizzy as he leaned on Evan’s shoulder. He hugged Evan’s waist tightly, rubbed his chest with a satisfied face and said, “I want to kiss you, can’t I?”

Evan smiled, “Of course, in this world, only you can.”

For some reason, such words suddenly came out of his mouth. After Evan finished speaking, he paused, is this a promise? Evan was a little dazed. In his last life, he had never had such an experience and he had never made such a promise to anyone even in a show.

Duke Wilson also raised his head from Evan’s shoulder. He looked straight at Evan with emotions in his eyes that Evan could not understand. He whispered in Evan’s ear, “In my whole life, you are the only one who can treat me like that.”

Duke Wilson didn’t say how he treated him, but after Evan heard these words, his whole body suddenly became agitated. He knew exactly what Duke Wilson meant, and the madness and feelings of that night suddenly flooded into his mind.

Evan looked at the road ahead through the window, and suddenly felt for the first time that it was such a far distance from the church to Cornwall Manor.

 

T/N: That felt really good, Evan really got him good

Old Bruce must not have thought that he’d ever need Evan’s help when he plotted against him. ‘You reap what you sow’ is the correct description for this

But I can’t help but wonder, what would Charles have done if Evan accepted the offer? ‍️‍️
