Guidebook for the Dark Duke

    Evan turned around instantly to look at the door of the church, there was a man standing against the light, his thin body glowed faintly under the sunlight, his face was still indifferent, His expression was still solemn, and even his eyes were still arrogant when he looked at people, and he couldn't see the anger that turned into anger when he was in the alley that day.

    Mrs. Lawrence jumped up from the ground almost like a fly, she walked over to the Duke with tears on her face, and said in a choked voice, "You're here too, John's child will definitely be happy. "

    Duke Wilson gently pulled up Mrs. Lawrence's scrawny hand and whispered, "John has worked for a year, and I am very satisfied with his work. It is also appropriate to come and send him away. "

    The expression on Mrs. Lawrence's face could almost be regarded as grateful, she humbly bowed her legs to the duke: "I'm so grateful to you, gracious duke."

    Alia, who was so impassioned just now, stood in the corner with her head lowered, the excited blush on her face had not subsided, but a few words appeared in her beautiful eyes. She knew very well that the duke hated her very much.

    But at this moment, the Duke suddenly said, "Who was giving the speech just now?"

    All eyes were on Arya's face, but Evan's expression tightened.

    "Yes...it's me, the Duke." Arya, like a young girl, stumbled and bowed to the Duke.

    Duke Wilson looked at Arya, as if thinking of something, he turned his head to look at Dr. Hester, and whispered: "Is this your daughter?"

    Doctor Hester nodded nervously.

     A smile appeared on the Duke's face: "You taught her very well, and being able to say such a thing proves that she is not a mediocrity."

    Dr. Hester's face immediately showed a relieved smile, and it seemed that the Duke had forgiven Arya for her rashness last time.

    "Thanks for your compliment, Lord Duke." Dr. Hester nodded slightly.

    Duke Wilson nodded, and moved his eyes to Evan, but this time he didn't want to talk to Evan, his eyes flashed, and he didn't stop for a minute , Evan's heart suddenly alarmed, the influence of the heroine is indeed endless, he has tried his best not to let these two meet, but he did not expect that there will be today's troubles.

    Evan looked at Mrs. Lawrence angrily for a while, but found that the poor old lady who lost her beloved son was shocked, the duke just said The words obviously refuted her accusation against Arya. She couldn't imagine that the Duke clearly came to mourn John, but he helped Arya, the slut, to speak.

    Seeing that Mrs. Lawrence was about to start the war again, Evan hurriedly stepped forward to support Mrs. Lawrence's arm, he could no longer give Arya a chance to perform, just watched Arya's It looks like, I am afraid that my heart has been moved. If these two people can see the eyes, then the death rate in the small town of Delan Lier will rise rapidly.

    "Mrs. Lawrence, the funeral is about to begin, you don't want anything discordant to happen at John's funeral." Evan whispered in Mrs. Lawrence's ear.

    Mrs. Lawrence was shocked, looked up at Evan, nodded thoughtfully, and stood back to Mr. Lawrence.

    Evan was relieved for a moment, but when he turned to look at the Duke, he found that he was talking to the strange lady.

    To be honest, Mrs. Lawrence suddenly attacked just now, and he had looked at this lady. After all, she was the daughter-in-law chosen by the shrewd Mrs. Lawrence, and he also wanted to see what this lady had She was capable, but all he saw from beginning to end was the sneer in her eyes. She did not lift her eyelids from beginning to end, but at this time, she was talking to the Duke with a smile on her face.

    Evan only felt a little strange in his heart.

    "I didn't expect you to know Miss Catherine." The Duke smiled and said to Mrs. Lawrence.

    Mrs. Lawrence has regained her senses at this time, but her face is still a little stiff: "John knows Miss Catherine's father."

    The John Lawrence said was Mr. Lawrence, father and son shared a Christian name, and he nodded towards Duke Wilson at this time, his expression unchanged.

    Duke Wilson laughed softly, but Miss Catherine took the opportunity to say: "My father attaches great importance to his friendship with Mr. Lawrence, and after this happened, my father was also very sad, so I came here to the funeral."

    Mrs. Lawrence looked at Catherine almost with guilt: "Miss Catherine, you are such a good girl, it's a pity that you and John..."

    "Mrs. Lawrence!" Before Mrs. Lawrence could finish speaking, Miss Catherine interrupted her: "Today is John's funeral, so let's not say something unnecessary to affect Mr. Reverend. Let's work." The smile on Catherine's face was slightly pale.

    Mrs. Lawrence also knew that she had slipped, and hurriedly lowered her head.

    Evan stood aside and watched, thinking about it, but at this time it was not the time to think about it, Evan immediately stepped onto the altar and began to preside over the funeral.

    Duke Wilson was sitting in the first row of the church pews. He lowered his eyebrows and did not look at Evan. Evan felt a little awkward, but he still completed his speech to John well .

    When John was finally buried in the tomb of the Lawrence family in the east of the public cemetery, Duke Wilson left again, watching Duke Wilson's carriage away, Evan's expression for a moment The stagnation, he thought was too simple, Duke Wilson obviously had a knot in his heart.

    When Evan threw the first handful of soil to John's coffin, the whole funeral finally entered the final moment, all relatives and friends stood on both sides, watching John's coffin being covered with soil Little by little, Mrs. Lawrence almost collapsed, but fortunately Dr. Hester gave her a sedative in time.

    Evan was quite sure that Dr. Hester should have expected this scene long ago, so he took the tranquilizer out of his pocket.

    After the funeral, Evan returned to the church alone. He sat in the hall of the church and looked at the crucifix, but his heart became more and more uncertain. He did not know what the Duke's attitude towards him was. Yes, whether it has really turned a blind eye since then.

    At the same time, Evan's defense against Alia has reached its peak. Today, the Duke clearly expressed his appreciation to Alia. If the two people really come together, then Everything he did would be meaningless.

    Evan's eyes instantly firmed up, he would never allow this to happen, he remembered the Duke's rage very well, even if he didn't get the glory and wealth, he couldn't really Confused to die in this place.

    Evan turned around and left the church. He needed to think about how he could make the two of them miss out.

    **

    Duke Wilson was sitting in the carriage, but his emotions were very complicated. Reverend Bruce was like a light to him. He had never seen such a noble person in his life. He also cherishes his friendship with him very much, but now, he doesn't know how to face him.

    "Sir Duke." The carriage stopped suddenly: "A gentleman outside stopped the carriage." The driver's voice was a little uneasy.

    Duke Wilson frowned slightly and opened the carriage door.

    "Mr. Johnson?" The Duke's expression was a little puzzled. Johnson is the town's lawyer and his lawyer, but at this time...

    Johnson had apparently come from the funeral.

    "Your Excellency, please forgive my rudeness, but I really have something very important to discuss with you now." A trace of unease flashed on Johnson's face.

    Duke Wilson frowned in dissatisfaction: "What is so urgent that makes you act so rashly?"

    Mr. Johnson's face was a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, Lord Duke, this matter is about the opening of your textile factory in the suburbs of Derain, I have to discuss it with you before I dare to enter. Decide."

    Speaking of this textile factory, the Duke's face is not very good: "Come up."

    He has invested 10,000 pounds in this textile mill, and if anything goes wrong, he will suffer great losses.

    Mr. Johnson breathed a sigh of relief and quickly got into the carriage.

    "What's the matter?" Before Mr. Johnson could sit down, the Duke asked immediately.

    Mr. Johnson hesitated for a moment, and then immediately said: "Sir Duke, the opening of the textile factory may be postponed."

    Duke Wilson looked cold and looked straight at Johnson: "What the **** is going on? I have already made an additional investment last time, why should I postpone it?"

    Johnson felt guilty when he was stared at by Duke Wilson, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly explained: "It's not... it's not about the money, it's about the law. Yes, now Yorkshire has restricted the conditions for the opening of the factory, your factory still needs some approval documents from the county council, I will prepare it immediately, please don't worry, it will take some time for the approval of the council."

    Duke Wilson looked at Johnson coldly: "You'd better solve the legal problem for me as soon as possible, and I will solve the problem on the parliament side by myself."

    Johnson nodded hurriedly, he almost forgot that this Duke Wilson was a member of the House of Lords.

    Duke Wilson put Mr. Johnson down in the center of Derain Township. Under the current circumstances, he did not have much patience with Mr. Johnson.
