Chapter 39: whim
When the duke saw that things were not going in the direction he wanted, he immediately panicked: "Don't worry, you can safely leave this matter to me."
These words were spoken so quickly and quickly that Evan was taken aback and looked at Duke Wilson in surprise.
Duke Wilson was also frightened by his own words, and his face flushed for a while, embarrassed and at a loss.
Evan also didn't know how to answer the question, and after a long pause, seeing Duke Wilson's ears getting redder, he said, "Won't this embarrass you?"
Duke Wilson held his chest in one breath. He would not feel embarrassed about any request from Evan. He did that before, but he just wanted to see him begging himself. Now it's like this, Duke Wilson also felt a little awkward in his heart, but when Evan spoke like this, he was relieved, after all, the current deadlock was broken.
"The matter has come to this point, for you, 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 When helping, he looked straight at Evan, and there seemed to be some kind of brilliance in his eyes.
Evan bit his lower lip lightly, this person is really tempting him all the time, Evan seems to hear the greedy voice in his heart, this man, really let him He couldn't let go.
"I really appreciate your generosity." Evan looked at Duke Wilson with a very sincere look, with obvious gratitude in his eyes.
Seeing Evan's expression, Duke Wilson finally got a little satisfaction in his heart. He has to rely on himself, which is the most satisfactory point of Duke Wilson, although he has not participated in his In life, but in the future, he must share weal and woe with Evan's life, which is the task given to him by Duke Wilson.
Seeing that Duke Wilson was supported by Ann, Evan was relieved. He had been in love before, and he naturally knew what a man was thinking when facing the person he liked, and he would show weakness when appropriate. A little sweetness to Duke Wilson.
The two continued to talk for a while, and then moved into the room because Evan couldn't sit for a long time.
Evan went upstairs after lunch with Duke Wilson. His wounds haven't healed yet. Although he can sit for a while, he can't really move a lot, so he went upstairs and went upstairs. He could only be carried up, Evan returned to his room, Tom brought fruit and tea, but Evan had no intention of drinking tea at all. Today, with the arrival of Ferde, he is facing a great dilemma. .
First of all, it was clear in the original owner's memory that Evan had no way to avoid it.
Folder was captured by the original owner because of the gentle appearance of the original owner. Without any consideration, he expressed his thoughts to the original owner, but although the original owner loved vanity, he was a straight man. And he is a straight man with a very old-fashioned mind. He can't be more repulsive about same-sex love, so he immediately ran away from Ferde like a frightened rabbit, and by the way ruined Ferde's reputation.
He met his enemy, and his position in this matter was very delicate. If he couldn't handle it for a while, all his efforts during this period of time would be in vain.
Evan bit his lower lip, thinking about the bleak final end of the original owner, his back was shivering with chills, because coveting the beauty of the heroine, the one who fought against the duke to death, in the end, After being blackened, the duke fought back and died in the riot of the rioters. He really had no place to die. Evan clenched his fists tightly. To write, since we have come to this point, we must earn a life.
His confession is enough to see the character of this person. Evan decided to use his character to save himself from this predicament and even further deepen his relationship with the Duke.
The next afternoon, Dr. Hester came for a follow-up visit, and he brought Arya with him. Edward was very happy. When Dr. Hester was treating Evan, he Has been pestering Alia.
Looking at the intimacy between Arya and Edward, jealousy entangled Evan's heart like a poisonous tongue, and he wanted to drive Arya out immediately, but in fact he But he could only lower his eyebrows and said nothing.
Dr. Hester looked at Evan's wound as a whole, and put on a new gauze for him, then said: "Pastor Bruce, your trauma has almost healed, but this You still can't have violent movements for a few days, otherwise there will be the danger of the wound bursting, so please keep that in mind."
Evan nodded, glanced at Arya who was very happy with Edward, and suddenly asked: "Doctor Hester, a gentleman who is checking accounts has come to the church these few days, Have you seen him?"
Evan's words really caught Jiang Alia's attention.
"Check the accounts?" Arya asked before Dr. Hester said, "What happened to the church accounts?"
Evan raised his eyebrows and glanced at Dr. Hester, who was a little embarrassed. In the end, he did not pursue Arya's faux pas, and whispered: "Aren't you paying attention to Mr. Johnson's affairs? ?"
Alia's face flashed with anger when she heard him say this: "Of course I heard, Mr. Johnson is really a shameful person, to have done such a thing."
Evan couldn't help laughing in his heart. I didn't expect that the woman who was so special in the original text would only pay attention to these gossips in the face of this matter.
As soon as Arya finished speaking, the Duke walked in from outside the door. His face was so cold that Arya, who was facing him, couldn't help but fight a cold war.
"Do you have any high points you want to publish? Miss Arya?" Duke Wilson's tone contained a hint of sarcasm.
Alia's face instantly flushed red, but she didn't want to admit defeat, 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 at it again, it was still calm.
"You are a lady, please don't discuss this kind of thing like this."
Duke Wilson's gentle answer made Arya very dissatisfied, she immediately said: "I didn't bring this up first, it was Pastor Bruce."
Alia's words made Duke Wilson turn his attention to Evan. At this time, Evan had just been bandaged, and his clothes had not been put on, only a shirt was put on, his snow-white neck And the collarbone is still exposed, which is very different from his usual abstinence appearance.
Duke Wilson's heart beat violently all of a sudden, he looked at Evan's current state with a bit of magic, his fair skin had a crystal brilliance in the autumn sun, which made him Duke Wilson was all excited, and finally he realized that he was likely to make a fool of himself if he went on like this, so he looked away almost embarrassedly.
Duke Wilson's every move was under Evan's control. He looked at Duke Wilson's blushing earlobes, and couldn't help but laugh in his heart. He slightly hooked the corner of his mouth and whispered : "I brought it up first, please don't blame Miss Arya."
The maintenance in Evan's tone made Duke Wilson a bit harsh. He turned his head and glanced coldly at Alia, who was a little stunned, and said coldly: "Miss Alia, please You go out first, and I want to discuss matters with the two gentlemen."
In this era, contempt for women is very common. When gentlemen talk about things, women have no chance to intervene. Basically, this is the consensus of everyone. Gentlemen are the main body of this society, but Arya is not an ordinary woman. Her sensitive nerves caught a trace of contempt from Duke Wilson's words, and her anger was suddenly ignited. She glared at Duke Wilson, and quickly sighed. ran out of the house.
Such a behavior is obviously very disrespectful, especially for a duke, Dr. Hester's face is even more embarrassing, he doesn't even dare to look up at the duke's eyes, and whispered: " Please forgive Arya, she's been in a bad mood these days..."
Dr. Hester was almost at a loss for words, such a ridiculous excuse that he could not convince himself.
But the duke didn't care, he just sneered and said in a low voice, "You don't need to say, I don't have any interest in knowing how Miss Arya is."
Dr. Hester closed his mouth embarrassedly. He squinted at Evan on the hospital bed, and felt a lot more balanced in his heart. At least Alia didn't encounter such a terrible pastor Bruce. thing.
Evan didn't pay attention to Dr. Hester's expression, all his thoughts were transferred to the solution he just came up with, Arya and Ferd, this is really a good combination , Killing two birds with one stone, all my problems have been solved.
Evan couldn't help twitching a smile, but was discovered by the sharp-eyed Duke Wilson.
"Anything to be happy about, Mr. Reverend?" Duke Wilson tried his best to look very calm.
Evan pursed his lips and smiled: "My injury is getting better, isn't this something to be happy about?"
Duke Wilson was stunned when he heard the news, then turned to look at Dr. Hester, and asked, "Is this true? Is it fully healed?"
Dr. Hester was stunned for a moment, and then nodded stunned: "Yes, Mr. Pastor's injury is almost healed, and he will be able to walk on the ground in a few days. "
Duke Wilson frowned even more after hearing this, he looked at Evan sitting on the bed with a gentle face, and suddenly whispered: "Then you are Don't you want to leave?"
Evan couldn't help but stagnate when he heard this, but he didn't think about it.
"I've bothered you for so long, it's time to leave." Evan quickly recovered his expression and replied warmly.
Duke Wilson's expression became more complicated.
