Chapter 79: 80

Evan couldn’t sleep that night.

Duke Wilson’s words made him unable to calm down for a long time. Perhaps because he’d waited too long for something like this so he felt uneasy in his heart for getting what he had wanted. And this unease made him feel even more uncomfortable.

Because Evan didn’t know what he was thinking about Duke Wilson at this moment.

Evan didn’t go down for breakfast the next morning. Whether it was based on his current character or his true thoughts, this behavior was very appropriate, but at the same time, Evan still felt very uncomfortable. Even if he can’t go down this morning, at night when it’s time to go to the ball, he still has to go down, there is no doubt about that. But the bad thing is that he doesn’t know how to face Duke Wilson.

No matter how entangled Evan’s heart is, the pace of time will never stop. He just finished lunch in the bedroom and took a nap for a few minutes, and the clock on the wall has already pointed to seven o’clock.

Evan stood up and was about to leave when there was a knock on the door, “Reverend Bruce, the Duke is already waiting downstairs.” It was the voice of Butler Chris.

Evan was stunned for a moment, and replied in a low voice, “I see, thank you for letting me know.”

Butler Chris left and Evan changed into his own suit. He was absent-minded as he went downstairs, but the moment he saw Duke Wilson, the faint anxiety in his heart suddenly calmed down miraculously. He nodded to Duke Wilson and greeted, “Lord Duke.”

As Duke Wilson stared at Evan, the emotions in his eyes were a little unpredictable. He pursed his lips but his eyes were very firm, “Reverend, you can stay in your room for as long as you want, but please remember what I said before. Every word I said to you was sincere.”

Evan looked at Duke Wilson. Even through the unease he felt after he heard the Duke’s confession, he’d never doubted the sincerity, but when he thought of this, he was startled again. He was so convinced of Duke Wilson’s feelings for himself, this is really…

Evan’s smile became a little reluctant, “I… let’s go first.” The only thing he can do now is to suspend the matter, because after all, this is not the best time for him to agree or refuse.

The two of them got into the carriage as it drove towards Lord Orlam’s castle. This is the biggest issue today.

Lord Orlam’s castle is located on the outskirts of London, which is a gathering area for nobles. As one of the best figures in London, Lord Orlam will naturally not fall behind. His castle is the most luxurious one in this place.

The carriage Evan and the Duke were in was greeted in a solemn manner, which was the sincerity of Lord Orlam and the due social treatment of Duke Wilson.

Lord Orlam held this ball very grandly. Not only nobles but also celebrities came, and the entire social circle of London seemed to be gathered in this place.

As soon as Duke Wilson entered, a group of people rushed up. The weight of the position of a duke is still very important in this era, not to mention that a duke with the status of Duke Wilson maintains a close relationship with the royal family, and also holds great power in his hands.

Because of the excitement of these people, Evan was excluded but this was exactly what he wanted. The awkward silence on the carriage just now made Evan feel suffocated.

Evan walked to the edge of the dance floor, took a glass of wine and sat on a chair in the shadows. Tonight’s dance is definitely not easy, Evan is very sure of this and he wants to be vigilant about it, but thoughts about Duke Wilson often came up in his mind, disrupting his thoughts.

But just when Evan’s thoughts were confused, someone walked towards him. Evan frowned and looked up at the person who came, it was Lord Orlam.

Evan was puzzled, but he immediately stood up, “Lord Orlam.” He nodded towards Lord Orlam, very polite.

Lord Orlam smiled at Evan, waved his hand for him to sit down and sat beside Evan at the same time.

“Reverend, how are you today?” Lord Orlam looked at Duke Wilson, who was very popular in the middle of the dance floor, as if very happy.

Evan frowned as he looked at Duke Wilson, knowing that he would be popular, but actually seeing him so popular was another issue.

“I’ve had a very good time. This is a very grand ball. Thank you very much for your invitation.” Although Evan’s words were gentle, they were also very official.

Lord Orlam raised his eyebrows and shook the glass of champagne in his hand, “Oh, it’s really nice of you to think this way. I’m very happy that you are satisfied.”

Lord Orlam was so polite. In Evan’s opinion, his politeness was almost overdone.

“You are too polite.” Evan said cautiously as he thought, the person sitting beside me is not an ordinary person and he is treating me so politely. I’m afraid there is a problem.

Lord Orlam is very satisfied with Evan’s cautiousness. This person is not a fool, and he is so cautious, so he can really rest assured that such a person is around Duke Wilson, who is currently his greatest partner after all, and he must guarantee that the people around Duke Wilson can’t leak their secrets.

“Reverend, what do you think of the current situation in London?” Lord Orlam suddenly changed the subject and started talking about something else.

Evan was somewhat unable to keep up with his different thoughts, and frowned slightly before saying, “London is a very beautiful city, I like it very much.”

Evan used the words Lord Orlam used words on the train and answered the meaningful question.

Lord Orlam was so provoked by this answer that he couldn’t help laughing. It seemed that his thoughts about the priest were wrong. Not only is this person not stupid, but he is also very smart.

“That’s true.” He smiled and said, “You are right.”

“But what I really want to ask you is,” He suddenly stopped smiling and said with a very obvious look of cautiousness in his eyes, “What do you think about the current political situation in London?”

Evan was a little surprised that he would ask this question. You know, this is the third time the both of them have met in the real sense, but he could actually ask himself such a sensitive question.

“This…” Evan pursed his lips, “The old king’s condition is really worrying. I hope God blesses the King.”

Evan reverently crossed his chest and used his clergy identity to skirt around the issue.

Lord Orlam looked at Evan and chuckled, “I almost forgot, you are a priest. Do you think this change of power will be boring in your eyes?”

Evan was slightly sluggish, But in the end, he immediately reacted and said with a smile, “This is all the Lord’s will. As the Lord’s servant, I cannot comment on this matter.”

Lord Orlam found himself unable to get a shred of useful answers from Reverend Bruce as he would always digress and give vague answers.

“I hope God can help us make the right decision.” Lord Orlam suddenly stood up from his chair and turned to look at Evan, who stood up with him, “You are a very important person and friend to Duke Wilson, then you and I are also my friends and I hope that in the future, I can chat with you like today.”

Looking at Lord Orlam’s slightly solemn expression, Evan’s expression paused slightly, then he nodded and said, “It will definitely be.”

Lord Orlam left the corner where Evan was and at this time, Duke Wilson also got rid of the entanglement of those people and walked to Evan’s side. He frowned slightly with a hint of worry in his tone, “Did Orlam say something to you just now?” While saying that, he watched Lord Orlam’s back as he left.

Evan pursed his lips and said in a low voice, “It’s nothing, it’s just small talk.”

Duke Wilson looked at Evan’s restrained expression and a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes, but in the end he continued talking in a normal tone, “That person’s words are never true or false. Don’t listen to him too much.”

Evan smiled when he looked at him like this. He understood Duke Wilson’s psychology, and he didn’t want to see his appearance like this, but for Evan, whether it is his real thoughts or the attitude he should maintain at this time, such an attitude is what it should be.

“Lord Duke.” Evan decided that he should still be open and honest about the issue of tonight’s dance. After all, it was a matter of his own safety, “What are you and Lord Orlam going to do at the dance tonight?” Evan asked very cautiously.

Duke Wilson was relieved to hear him ask this question. He knew that Evan was a smart man and he did not avoid Evan except when he was secretly talking with Orlam. It should be seen to be a different act but he didn’t ask before, and the issue was not easy to say. He asks now, which means that after expressing such feelings to him, Evan is still willing to believe in himself.

“You finally asked.” There was a bit of joy in his eyes.

Evan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that he was really worrying for no reason. Duke Wilson is not an idiot. Since he would let himself know about the king’s critical illness, maybe he didn’t plan to hide it from him from the beginning, but he(E) just thought too much.

“My dear cousin Richard is now between life and death, and I will be summoned tomorrow to meet His Majesty, the King at Buckingham Palace.” Duke Wilson said quietly and quickly.

“But what you don’t know is,” Duke Wilson pursed his lips, “What you don’t know is that now all the guards at Buckingham Palace are under the control of Duke Rand. If I enter Buckingham Palace, I will never come out.”

When Evan heard this, his heart trembled. He looked up at Duke Wilson, whose face was cold and calm, as if he was talking about another person.

“Then you…” Evan’s mouth felt dry, “Then what did you decide to do?”

Duke Rand’s move is not a spur of the moment but a conspiracy. As long as Duke Wilson does not intend to commit treason, he has to answer tomorrow’s summons to Buckingham Palace, otherwise it will be a dead end if the Duke of Rand takes the handle.

“What should I do?” Duke Wilson looked at the dance floor where the dazzling lights were intertwined, with a grim smile on his face, “This dance is the answer.”

Evan looked at Duke Wilson’s profile, he seemed to be stunned. He seemed to have forgotten, this man in front of him still has this side, so cold and so hidden.

Just as Evan was stunned, Duke Wilson suddenly turned his head to look at Evan.

“You know what? The way to solve the problem is to solve it at the source of the problem. My cousin the king won’t delay until tomorrow morning. He will be completely thrown into the arms of the Lord tonight, so I won’t need to go to Buckingham Palace tomorrow.” Duke Wilson’s tone did not waver at all.
