With what Duke Wilson said, Evan knew very well that if there were no other circumstances, he could not easily refuse. Evan looked at Duke Wilson, who looked calm on the surface but was actually very nervous. He smiled lightly, “Then I’ll trouble you.”
Duke Wilson was secretly relieved, “You are too polite. For our friendship, this matter is nothing.”
Evan followed Duke Wilson and they walked back to Cornwall Manor together. Butler Chris had already prepared dinner. Evan looked at it, the dinner was for two people.
Evan glanced at Butler Chris, he is indeed Duke Wilson’s confidant. I am afraid that the person who knows the Duke best in the world is this unremarkable butler.
The dinner was very rich and even a few fish caught by the Duke were boiled into a delicious fish soup.
Evan sat opposite Duke Wilson, chatting and laughing with Reverend Robert beside him. Although Duke Wilson had been silent, he would look at Evan from time to time, and the look in his eyes was slightly gloomy.
After supper, the confused Reverend Robert was helped upstairs to rest, while Evan and Duke Wilson were sitting in the living room, talking about the past few days.
Duke Wilson was very dissatisfied with the events of the past few days and spoke with a bit of sarcasm, “After this incident, that honorable Mr Ford should stop causing trouble for a few days.”
Evan pursed his lips and smiled, “Ford is a smart man, although he did such a thing this time, there should be no more action.”
Evan’s affirmation of Ford made Duke Wilson a little dissatisfied, but he couldn’t say anything more and in the end he could only smile slightly sarcastically.
After that, there was a very awkward silence between the two. Duke Wilson looked at Evan sitting in the dim light. His light blue eyes had a strange brilliance at this time. Somehow Duke Wilson’s lips suddenly turned dry.
Evan has been observing Duke Wilson from the corner of his eye. He noticed that Duke Wilson’s eyes had been staying on himself, and he smiled in his heart.
Suddenly, Evan raised his head so Duke Wilson had no time to avoid and look away, and the heat in his eyes was completely seen by Evan.
“Duke…My lord?” Evan looked at Duke Wilson with some doubt.
Duke Wilson’s heart was extremely nervous at this time. He almost didn’t dare to look into Evan’s clear eyes. He avoided Evan’s eyes in a panic and said in a stammering tone, “I…I’m a little tired. We should rest now.”
Evan looked at Duke Wilson, his handsome face was slightly red and his eyes were filled with panic, which seemed to be different from the usual calm, collected and self-controlled Duke.
“Okay.” Evan replied calmly.
Duke Wilson quickly stood up, and left, as if he had been given amnesty.
Watching the Duke go to the second floor, Evan just stood up. Although this night’s stay was destined to be nothing unusual, for some reason, Evan suddenly felt as if a warm current had been injected into his heart, like the warmth of spring. The warmth soothed him a lot. This night was the most solid night he had slept since he left Cornwall Manor.
Early the next morning, Duke Wilson did not appear at the dining table. Evan thoughtfully looked at the vacant seat opposite him, his eyes flickering, it looks like he (DW) doesn’t want to face him (E) .
In the end, Butler Chris personally sent Evan back to the church. When they parted, Butler Chris looked at Evan with a hesitant expression on his face while Evan looked calm, as if he didn’t know anything. In the end, Butler Chris just sighed deeply, turned around, got into the carriage and left.
Soon after Evan returned to the church, the church gradually became lively. Yesterday’s big drama caused a huge sensation in the entire Delanlier, especially the poor Reverend Bruce, who received such grievances. The people felt very guilty, so even though today is not a Sunday, these people rushed to the church, apologized deeply to Evan and asked for Evan’s forgiveness.
Of course, Evan has to forgive these people. No matter how disdainful he feels in his heart, he will not put himself on the opposite side of most people, especially now that, for these people, he is still a kind and noble character.
After dealing with these people, it was already late. Evan wanted to go home and sleep peacefully, but Sheriff Chandler ran over with a frightened look.
“Reverend Bruce!” His tie was loose and he was gasping for breath.
“Reverend Bruce!” He held Evan’s hand, “I’m really…really…”
“What’s the matter?” Evan asked with a frown, seeing that he couldn’t come up with a response for a long time.
“Oh! This is really a disaster.” Sheriff Chandler held his head in pain and said, “Mrs Johnson just committed suicide in prison!”
“What?!” Evan’s eyes widened instantly, “Mrs Johnson is dead?”
Seeing Evan’s big reaction, Sheriff Chandler quickly waved his hand, “No, no, don’t get excited, she didn’t succeed, and was rescued by the officers later.”
“Oh…” Evan heaved a sigh of relief, but his frowning brows did not relax.
“What’s going on?” Evan asked in a low voice.
Sheriff Chandler also looked a little guilty at this time and said, “It’s all my fault, I always thought that Mrs Johnson was definitely the mastermind of this matter so I was indifferent to her protests. But I didn’t expect that she would do such a thing in this matter.”
“Protest?” Evan frowned, and for some reason, Rael’s slightly exaggerated face suddenly appeared in his mind.
“What did Mrs Johnson protest against?” Evan picked up his previous doubts again at this time, and he had a hunch that this matter could not be so simple.
“Alas…” Sheriff Chandler sighed with shame, “Mrs Johnson kept saying that when she went back home that day, she didn’t see Mr Johnson and I didn’t believe it before. But this morning, a homeless man suddenly broke into the police station and he told me that on the day Mr Johnson died, during the period when Mrs Johnson was not seen, he had seen Mr Johnson, with a woman but could not see her face, and they also went back to Mr Johnson’s home together.”
“Homeless man?” Evan was a little puzzled, these witnesses’ appearances were too timely.
When Evan mentioned this, the look on Sheriff Chandler’s face became even more ashamed, “Oh, it’s all my fault, the news of us finding evidence was published before, but it was withdrawn the day after Miss Blair appeared. Mrs Johnson was very dissatisfied, so she found a lawyer and paid for the notice to be published herself. This homeless man was attracted by the notice.”
“Could the reason be for money?” Evan asked.
“I thought about this before, but there is evidence from this homeless man. At that time, in order to get rid of the homeless man’s entanglement, Mr Johnson gave him a large amount of coins, one of the things he got was a cufflink that Mr Johnson accidentally dropped. Mr Johnson’s initials are also engraved on it.” Sheriff Chandler said with great chagrin.
Evan raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this. It seems to be true. It’s really interesting. They finally found evidence this morning, but Mrs Johnson tried to commit suicide at the same time. This woman’s scheming is really terrible. Speaking of it now, it’s obvious that all the public opinion will be on her side and people will have sympathy for her, and Sheriff Chandler, who caused this incident, his reputation is now in danger.
Evan looked at Sheriff Chandler, but he didn’t realize that the danger was approaching. He secretly groaned in his heart. It’s obvious that the person with the most comfortable life in this world is Sheriff Chandler, a heartless person who never cares.
“Mr Sheriff.” Evan’s expression instantly became solemn. Sheriff Chandler was his friend, and he couldn’t watch the sheriff really be destroyed, “The matter has become very serious now.”
Sheriff Chandler looked at Evan in surprise, “But Mrs Johnson has been rescued…” He murmured.
Evan gritted his teeth, he really didn’t realize it at all, “Although she was rescued, her situation is very difficult.”
Sheriff Chandler was stunned, he thought about it and still had an expression of ‘I don’t understand on his face’ but he said, “This matter is my negligence, and I will be responsible for my negligence.”
Evan sighed, “If this matter develops according to the current state of the matter, you are not responsible. The problem is, I’m afraid it’s hard to say whether you can keep your position.”
Stunned, Sheriff Chandler looked at Evan, “This…how is this possible…”
Evan feels really sympathetic towards the sheriff now. Although Sheriff Chandler is still a little smart when it comes to handling cases, he is too far behind when it comes to dealing with people.
“Sheriff, Mrs Johnson is not a simple lady, she chose to kill herself today, haven’t you wondered why? Now that she has escaped the charge of murder, how do you think she will deal with you?” Evan said frankly.
Sheriff Chandler’s face finally changed at this time, “This…this is really…”
Sheriff Chandler is an old-fashioned gentleman. He’d never thought that a lady could be so dangerous.
“Okay.” Evan sighed, “Sheriff, if you want to keep your position now, break this case as soon as possible, otherwise there will be consequences. I can’t imagine the consequences myself.”
Speaking of this, Sheriff Chandler couldn’t help but feel a little dejected, “Oh, I also want to solve this case as soon as possible. But now Mrs Johnson, who is the main suspect, has been freed from the suspicion and that kid, Rael, has an alibi. Even if I want to solve the case, it is very difficult!”
As Evan listened to Sheriff Chandler’s complaint, his expression changed and finally, he asked tentatively, “Have you investigated Mr Rael again?”
Sheriff Chandler raised his eyebrows, “Of course I have investigated him, but that kid Rael is too slick and I can’t get anything useful. But my wife met Miss Blair a few days ago. You don’t know, Miss Blair has been so beautiful these days, and my wife told me that it looks like Miss Blair is going to leave here and get married.”
Speaking of this, Sheriff Chandler couldn’t help laughing, almost everyone in the entire Delanlier knows that Miss Blair is afraid that she will never be able to marry in this life.
Evan was touched by Sheriff Chandler’s words. He immediately asked, “Why did your wife say that? Is there any evidence?”
Sheriff Chandler was asked by Evan like this and for a moment he was stunned, he murmured, “Evidence? I don’t know this, but I just heard that Miss Blair is preparing to sell her house in recent days. Everyone in the town knows that it was left to Miss Blair by Mr Blair. She has always treasured her property…”
Evan didn’t listen to Sheriff Chandler’s last words, but the doubts in his heart were suddenly cleared up and this matter is now obvious to him.
T/N : I didn’t realise that the little notes I wrote in some chapters and my rambling actually ruined the immersion for some people, and I apologise for that. I will stop this habit from now henceforth.
Although I planned to take the time to delete them, I changed my mind because some people actually sent insulting messages to me on discord which kinda pissed me off. So I’m just going to leave them for now. Maybe I’ll delete them later.
Well, enjoy guys.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
