Guidebook for the Dark Duke

Duke Wilson trembled as if he had been electrocuted. The name came out of Evan's mouth. I don't know if it was his illusion. The whole person seems to be soaked in warm water, and for a while, the whole person can't tell the difference between east, west, north and west.

He looked at Evan blankly, not knowing what to say.

Evan looked at him and smiled: "What's the matter with you?"

Duke Wilson reacted instantly, the expression on his face became a little embarrassed, he pursed his lips, and there was a trace of discomfort in his expression.

"It's okay, my friend..." He paused slightly: "Evan."

When the name was called out, the firmness in the tone shocked Evan, but Evan still had a gentle look on his face, he smiled softly: "You are like this Calling my name makes me always have a strange feeling."

Duke Wilson clenched his fists and said solemnly, "You don't feel offended."

Evan smiled: "It's my honor to form a friendship with you."

Duke Wilson breathed a sigh of relief and turned to: "How are you doing today?"

Evan smiled: "Thank you for your concern, I have a good time, Sheriff Chandler came today, and with his company, I am not alone today."

"Sheriff Chandler came?" Duke Wilson couldn't help frowning. He didn't expect the sheriff to take advantage of this today.

"What did he tell you?" Duke Wilson is very worried that Evan will be dragged into this troublesome incident.

Evan looked stunned for a moment, then smiled: "What else could it be, but it's just this case. Sheriff Chandler has no clue, come to me to sort out the clues."

Duke Wilson showed a trace of disagreement when he heard it, but when he turned to look at Evan, his face was tender: "You are not in good health now, this kind of thing only Afraid that it will affect your recovery, if he comes again next time, you can also refuse."

He believes that the reason why Evan met with Sheriff Chandler was because he was soft-hearted and did not know how to reject others.

Evan laughed secretly in his heart, he really did not want to destroy his image, so he met Sheriff Chandler, but he also paid a certain amount of attention to this matter, the world treated him In other words, there is a layer of estrangement. First of all, he has to grasp all the things that go wrong.

"Don't worry, I'm in good health now, and I still have the energy to see old friends." Evan paused slightly: "It's just..."

"Just?" Duke Wilson looked at Evan in surprise.

"It's just that I'm a little worried about things in the church." Evan smiled reluctantly, and a look of sadness flashed on his face.

"The church thing?" Duke Wilson frowned: "Is there something wrong with the church?"

Evan gave a wry smile: "I didn't know it before, but when Sheriff Chandler came today, I just heard that the young assistant pastor was at Mass on Sunday. It seems that it is not doing very well, and I am very worried about whether the Gospel of God can be well spread."

It's Chandler again! Duke Wilson thought fiercely in his heart, how could this man bring up such a thing at such a time.

"Don't worry." Duke Wilson reluctantly smiled: "This should be Sheriff Chandler's joke, I haven't heard any complaints about this in the past few days, yours The injury is important, if the injury is not healed, there is nothing I can do if I go."

Evan's eyes were still worried, but he didn't say any more, he nodded reluctantly, and said in a low voice: "I just hope my injury can heal as soon as possible."

Listening to Evan's words, Duke Wilson's heart is very complicated. On the one hand, he hopes that Evan's injury will heal immediately and get rid of the pain, but he also does not want Evan to leave Cornwall Manor. .

In the end Duke Wilson could only nod his head, his expression a little stiff.

Evan secretly felt a little joy in his heart. When Duke Wilson faced his feelings, he was simply like a blank piece of paper, and he could easily see his thoughts clearly.

It wasn't until the last time for lunch that Evan and the Duke went to the dining room.

After lunch, the Duke sent Evan upstairs. He originally wanted to send Evan into his own room, but after going upstairs, Evan raised an objection.

"Charles." When he called this name, he always had an ambiguous tone, low and soft, which made Duke Wilson's heart skip a beat.

"I don't want to go back to my room, I want to read a book." He looked at Duke Wilson with sincere and pure eyes, and Wilson's throbbing heart suddenly felt a little overwhelmed.

"You...what book do you want to read?" Duke Wilson spoke with a little sloppyness.

Evan seemed to have not found it, and smiled gently: "I don't know if you can visit your study, I have always heard that your study is the entire Derain Lier collection. The richest place."

Duke Wilson's heart was beating so fast, like a ticking clock, Duke Wilson only felt that his heart was about to explode.

"Okay...Okay..." He said two good words in succession, but his tone was dry and a little flustered.

Evan smiled inwardly, Duke Wilson, what an interesting person.

Duke Wilson helped Evan into his own study, Evan looked at this solemn and elegant study, and couldn't help but admire for a while, the collection of books is really large, more than the books in the church The accumulation of generations of nobles is even deeper than that of the church.

"Sure enough, you have a rich collection of books, you are really a learned person." Evan said with admiration.

Duke Wilson was secretly overjoyed for some reason, he held back his slightly raised mouth and said solemnly: "You won the prize, these books are all left by my ancestors, I have read them It's only one-tenth, I wonder what book you're interested in? I can get it for you."

The bookshelf on that floor is very high, and Evan's current physical condition is definitely not suitable for picking it up in person.

Evan couldn't help but smile and said warmly: "The bibliography about the church is just fine, thank you."

Duke Wilson patted Evan's shoulder stiffly, and said in a low voice, "You don't have to be like this."

After he finished speaking, he went to fetch the book. Looking at Duke Wilson's awkward back, Evan couldn't help bending the corners of his mouth.

Duke Wilson took the book back. Due to Evan's body, he deliberately chose a relatively thin and small book. He introduced a few words, and then helped Evan to walk. Behind the desk opposite his desk, he whispered, "If you don't want to go back to your room, just read here."

Evan looked up at the Duke's slightly uncomfortable expression and smiled: "Okay, thank you."

The Duke waved his hand and walked to his desk. Evan could see a thick stack of parchment on his desk. He knew that the Duke had a lot of business to deal with, so he didn't bother him. , he quietly read the book.

In such a quiet afternoon, the gentle sunlight poured into the study room through the French window on the balcony, comforting the face facing the window, the gentle autumn sunlight covered him all over stand up.

His pale blond hair looked exceptionally dazzling in the sun, and his blue eyes, like a lake, looked quiet and warm.

Duke Wilson sat behind the desk, most of him was shrouded in shadows, he looked straight at Evan, like a eccentric who was walking alone in the corner, watching The warmest sunshine in the world.

Duke Wilson's stunned look was finally awakened by a sudden knock on the door, he stood up suddenly from behind the table, the harsh sound of dragging the chair made Evan unable to bear it back.

"Sir? What's wrong with you?" Evan looked at the duke suspiciously.

The duke's expression was a little complicated, he threw a low "nothing", and hurried to the door, and suddenly opened the door.

He was breathing rapidly, as if something in the room was preventing him from breathing.

The people at the door were startled by his appearance, and hurriedly asked: "Sir Duke, what's the matter with you?"

Duke Wilson pursed his lips tightly, looked at Ederson, and said in a low voice, "Come back in five minutes." Edson came over in person, and there must be nothing good.

Adelson probed the room with some doubts, but unfortunately didn't see anything, he smiled in a low voice: "Okay, no matter what you say."

Adelson left, but Duke Wilson turned to face Evan.

Duke Wilson took a deep breath, and then he mustered the courage to look at Evan. Evan looked at Duke Wilson curiously, and his eyes were full of exploration.

Duke Wilson couldn't help but curl up in his heart. He has a lot of things, and he can't completely spread it out in front of Evan. For this person in front of him, he doesn't dare to spread his dark side at all open.

"Evan." His voice trembled slightly: "I still have things to deal with, you go back to your room first."

Evan frowned when he saw Duke Wilson tilting his head, his expression seemed a little innocent, what happened to Duke Wilson? Evan, who was outside the door just now, could see clearly that it was the unfamiliar gentleman today, the Duke's staff named Edson. Do they have any secret matters to discuss?

The first thing Evan thought of was about the capital, Evan had the urge to ask, but in the end he restrained his thoughts and stood slowly with the book in his arms He got up, smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then I won't bother you anymore, farewell."

Evan walked from the desk to the door step by step, Duke Wilson was standing there, unable to move at all, he watched Evan walk to his side, and then pass him , He subconsciously held his breath again, until Evan opened the door and walked out, Duke Wilson began to take a deep breath.

Duke Wilson was finally able to move at this time, he dragged his heavy steps to the desk, collapsed on the chair, and lay down on the back of the chair, Covering his eyes with the back of his hand, he just felt like he was going crazy.

He would have such thoughts, such filthy thoughts...

Duke Wilson fell into a feeling of self-loathing. He always thought that his feelings for that person should be pure and free of impurities, but at this time, he realized that , his evil thoughts were like a poisonous snake, grabbing his heart.

Duke Wilson couldn't help groaning, he felt that he was a little unable to face Evan.

After a long silence, the knock on the door rang again, but this time Duke Wilson did not stand up to open the door, but said in a low voice, "Come in."

The next moment, the door opened, and Edson's mediocre face appeared behind the door.
