Chapter 41: 39

When the duke saw that things didn’t go in the direction he wanted, he became anxious, “Don’t worry, you can leave this matter to me.”

This sentence was spoken so quickly and so loudly that Evan was scared. He jumped and looked at Duke Wilson with some surprise.

Duke Wilson was also frightened by his own words and his face flushed with embarrassment and he was at a loss for a while.

Evan also didn’t know how to answer. After a long pause, seeing the duke’s ears getting redder, he said, “Won’t this embarrass you?”

Duke Wilson blocked his chest in a breath. He will not feel embarrassed about any request, he did that before but he wants to see Evan begging him. Duke Wilson feels a little awkward in his heart but when Evan said this, he was relieved. After all, Evan spoke in a warm tone, breaking the current deadlock.

“The matter has come to this point, so I will definitely help you.” Duke Wilson quickly returned to his normal expression. He was very sincere when he said this, especially when he said that he would help. As he looked at Evan, there seemed to be some kind of brilliance in his eyes.

Evan lightly bit his lower lip. This man was really tempting him. Evan seemed to hear a greedy voice in his heart. This man really made it difficult for him to let go.

“Thank you very much for your generosity.” Evan looked at Duke Wilson with a sincere look, with obvious gratitude in his eyes.

Seeing Evan’s expression like this, Duke Wilson finally got a little satisfaction in his heart. Evan has to rely on him, which is the most satisfying point to Duke Wilson. Although he has not participated in his life before, he will in the future. It is necessary to share weal and woe in Evan’s life, which is the task that Duke Wilson has given himself.

Seeing that the duke was satisfied, Evan was relieved. He had been in love before and he naturally knew what a man was thinking when facing the person he liked. His appropriate way of showing weakness can be regarded as a kind of sweetness to Duke Wilson.

The two continued to talk for a while and then, moved to the room because Evan couldn’t sit for a long time.

Evan and Duke Wilson had lunch together before going upstairs. His wounds haven’t healed yet. Although he can sit for a while, he can’t really move a lot, so he can only be carried upstairs. Evan returned to his room and Tom served him fruit and tea, but Evan had no intention of drinking tea at all. With the arrival of Ford today, he is facing a great dilemma.

First of all, it was clear in the original owner’s memory that Evan knows how he treated Ford back then.

At that time, Ford’s heart was captured by the original owner because of the original owner’s gentle appearance and without any consideration, he expressed his intentions to the original owner. However, although the original owner loved vanity, he was a straight man and he was also a straight man with very outdated thoughts. He was very repulsed about same-sex love so he ran away from Ford like a frightened rabbit and ruined Ford’s reputation in the process.

Thinking of these things the original owner did, Evan leaned back on the chair and covered his eyes with the back of his hands. This is really a bad thing. At the most critical time, he actually met an enemy and his position in this matter is still very delicate. If he can’t handle this matter well, all his efforts during this period of time would be in vain.

Evan bit his lip, thinking of the original owner’s final bleak final end, he felt chills run down his back. Because he coveted the heroine and fought against the duke, he was finally killed by the blackened duke. Dying in a riot and among rioters on the street is really no place to die.

Evan clenched his fists tightly, he must not be reduced to that point. His life must be written by himself and since he has reached this point, he must preserve his life.

Evan thought about it for a long time and finally decided to take a risk. Ford is full of deep thoughts and must not be underestimated. But this person has a fatal weakness, that is, he is too self-righteous and his confession back then is enough to prove this trait of his. Evan decided to use this trait of his to save himself from this predicament and even further deepen his relationship with the duke.

The look in Evan’s eyes changed and in the end, it turned into a gloom that sank into his eyes.

The next afternoon, Dr. Hester came for a follow up visit and he brought Alia with him. Edward was very happy. While Dr. Hester was treating Evan, he had been pestering Alia.

Looking at the intimacy between Edward and Alia, jealousy entangled Evan’s heart like a poisonous snake. He wanted to drive Alia out immediately, but he could only lower his eyes without saying a word.

Dr. Hester looked at Evan’s wound and put a new gauze on it and then said, “Reverend Bruce, your wound has almost healed but you still can’t do any violent movements these few days, otherwise, there is a danger of the wound reopening. Please keep that in mind.”

Evan nodded. He glanced at Alia, who was very happy with Edward and suddenly asked, “Dr. Hester, these few days, a gentleman who is checking accounts has come to the church. Have you seen him?”

Evan’s words really caught Alia’s attention. (Kinda feels like a trap though)

“Check the accounts?” Alia asked before Dr. Hester could speak, “What happened to the church’s accounts?”

Evan raised his eyebrows and glanced at Dr. Hester, who was a little embarrassed by Alia’s rudeness. He replied, “Have you not paid attention to Mr Johnson’s affairs?”

When Alia heard this, a trace of anger flashed on her face, “Of course I heard. Mr Johnson is really a shameful person. This person actually did such a thing.”

Evan smiled in his heart, he didn’t expect that the woman who was so special in the original book would only pay attention to the gossip circulating about this incident.

As soon as Alia finished speaking, the duke walked into the room. His face was so cold that Alia, who was facing him, couldn’t help the shivers.

“Do you have any rhetorics you want to publish, Miss Alia?” Duke Wilson’s tone had a hint of sarcasm.

Alia’s face instantly flushed red but she didn’t want to admit defeat so she gritted her teeth and said, “Don’t you agree with my point of view? Isn’t what Mr Johnson did shameless?”

Duke Wilson’s expression fluctuated for a moment but when he looked back, it was still calm.

“You’re a lady. Please don’t discuss this kind of thing like this.”

Duke Wilson’s gentle answer made Alia very dissatisfied and she immediately said, “I didn’t bring this up first. The one who brought it up is Reverend Bruce.” (And she fell into the trap )

Alia’s words made Duke Wilson turn his attention to Evan, who had just wrapped up his checkup and hadn’t put on his clothes yet and just had a shirt on, a snow white shirt. His neck and collarbone were still exposed, which was very different from his usual abstinent appearance.

Duke Wilson’s heart beat violently all of a sudden and he looked at Evan’s current state in a daze. In the autumn sun, his fair skin had a crystal clear brilliance, which made Duke Wilson excited. Finally, he realised that he might make a fool of himself if he went on like this so he quickly looked away, a little embarrassed.

Duke Wilson’s every move was under Evan’s control. He looked at Duke Wilson’s reddened earlobes and laughed in his heart, “Please don’t blame Miss Alia.”

The care in Evan’s tone made Duke Wilson feel a little angry. He turned his head and looked coldly at Alia, who was stunned, and said in a really cold tone, “Miss Alia, please go out, I want to discuss some things with the two gentlemen.”

In this era, contempt for women is very common. When gentlemen talk about things, women have no right or chance to speak or interrupt. Basically, this is the consensus of everyone, gentlemen are the main body of this society. But Alia is not an ordinary woman. Her sensitive nerves captured a trace of contempt from Duke Wilson’s words and her anger was ignited. Glancing at Duke Wilson, she quickly ran out of the room. (Evan is evil, poor Miss Alia fell into his trap )

This kind of behaviour is obviously very rude, especially behaving that way to a Duke. Dr. Hester felt really embarrassed, he didn’t even dare to look up at the duke’s face as he spoke, “Please forgive Alia, she has been in a bad mood these days.” Dr. Hester knew that this was such a ridiculous excuse that he couldn’t even convince himself with.

But the duke didn’t care, he just sneered and said, “You don’t need to give any excuses. I have no interest in knowing how Miss Alia is.”

Embarrassed, Dr. Hester shut his mouth. He looked at Evan on the bed and felt a lot more balanced in his heart, at least Alia didn’t encounter such a terrible thing as Reverend Bruce.

Evan didn’t pay attention to Dr. Hester’s expression, all his thoughts were transferred to the solution he just came up with. Alia and Ford, this is really a good combination, killing two birds with one stone. All his problems would be solved.

Evan’s lips twitched with a smile, this was discovered by the duke’s sharp eyes.

“Is there anything to be happy about, Reverend?” Duke Wilson tried his best to look calm.

Evan smiled, “My injury is getting better. Isn’t this a happy thing?”

Duke Wilson was stunned when he heard this, he turned to look at Dr. Hester and asked, “Is this true? Has it healed completely?”

Dr. Hester was stunned for a moment and he nodded in a daze, “Yes, Reverend Bruce’s injury is almost healed completely. He will be able to walk around in a few days.”

After Duke Wilson heard this, his frown deepened. He looked at Evan, who was sitting on the bed with a gentle look on his face, and quietly asked, “Are you going to leave then?”

Evan stiffened for a moment but he didn’t think about it.

“It’s time to leave after disturbing you for so long.” Evan quickly recovered his expression and replied warmly.

Duke Wilson’s expression became more complicated.
