Guidebook for the Dark Duke - Chapter 118

    “You…what nonsense are you talking about?” Colonel Mel protected the pale Mrs. Mel, and said a little stiffly.

    Evan ignored Colonel Mel, but stared at Mrs. Mel who was hiding behind Colonel Mel.

    “Madam, your identity is not a mystery to me now, are you sure you want to deny it to the end?” Evan said this with an expression on his face almost It’s a bit mean.

    Mrs. Mel didn’t dare to look into Evan’s eyes at all. She lowered her head and pursed her lips, her hands trembled slightly, and her whole person seemed a little nervous.

    “I…I…” She said with trembling lips.

    “Don’t talk, Katrina!” Colonel Mel interrupted Mrs. Mel’s speech and said sharply: “This matter has nothing to do with you!”

    He looked at Mrs. Mayer almost with the harshest eyes, with a firm expression.

    Mrs. Mel looked at him, but her eyes were full of tears: “Charlie!” She cried: “You can’t…”

    “Shut up, Katrina!” Colonel Mel hugged Mrs. Mel, who was trembling all over: “Don’t talk, just be good.” He whispered in her ear Side whispered.

    Mrs. Meyer cried even more.

    Evan looked at this scene and even applauded, with a deep sarcasm on his face, completely different from his usual upright and selfless look. It was Duke Wilson, and even Sheriff Chandler gave him a puzzled look.

    “It’s a very affectionate show, Mr. Colonel.” Evan’s tone was full of irony: “You are so affectionate, the real Mrs. Mel who was killed by you can be Know?”

    Evan’s words were so horrifying that Sheriff Chandler was almost instantly attracted by his words, completely forgetting his unusual performance today.

    “What did you say?” He stood up abruptly: “Mrs. Mel is the one who died? What the **** is going on?” He finally asked this sentence.

    Evan looked back at Sheriff Chandler who was confused, the expression on his face finally subsided a little, he glanced at the pile of wild mandarin ducks with a cold expression, and sneered Said: “Mr. Sheriff, I’m afraid we have fallen into Colonel Mel’s despicable conspiracy from the very beginning.”

    He paused slightly, looked around at the people present, and when he glanced at Duke Wilson’s slightly puzzled face, he couldn’t help but tighten his heart, he had never thought about it , The person who exposed his true face turned out to be himself, he clenched his fist and took a deep breath.

    “Colonel Mayer focused all the suspicions on himself from the start, his unusual relationship with Mother Eliza, Mr. Ederson’s concealment of his troubles, and the It’s all about hiding the other person in this thing.”

    When Evan said this, he looked at Mrs. Mel, who was hiding behind Colonel Mel. No, it should be Mother Eliza.

    “Colonel Mel exposed himself in front of everyone, but in fact he was a person with an alibi, which was well hidden by his design, just wait Bring it up when the time is right.”

    “Originally speaking, this is also a very perfect plan, and even a scapegoat has been found, poor Ederson is the best scapegoat, but unfortunately, he did not expect , the Duke and I will be back from London so soon.”

    When he said this, Evan gave Colonel Mel a deep look. In fact, it was not unexpected, but it was his worst plan. When he went to London by himself I told myself his secret before, I’m afraid this is the last insurance Colonel Mel made for this matter.

    “The Duke and I are back, he knows very well that Ederson cannot perfunctory me, and my eyes are more and more focused on Mrs. Mel at this time, so he can only Desperately taking the risk to use his most dangerous and final plan.” Evan looked at Colonel Mel with a burning look in his eyes, with a hint of coldness in his eyes: “That is to frame me.”

    “I got myself into trouble and predicament. At this time, most people can’t think rationally, especially my friend Duke Wilson is by my side. Friendship, he will definitely investigate Colonel Mel’s own crimes as soon as possible, which is of course easy, so Colonel Mel was pushed in front of us like this, and the poor lady behind him will be completely by people. Forgotten, because everyone will think that the investigation made by the Duke must be the most correct, and no one will question it.”

    When Evan said this paragraph, he was very calm, the sarcasm and indifference seemed to disappear completely, and he changed back to the gentle pastor before, but Evan was very It is clear that Duke Wilson saw all his actions just now.

    “You…this is really…” Sheriff Chandler was stunned by Evan’s words, he seemed a little unable to understand the situation in front of him, after a long time, he finally asked: “Then , then why do you say Mrs. Mayer is Mother Eliza? It’s impossible, they hardly make any difference.”

    Evan couldn’t help laughing: “You said you have seen Mrs. Mel, indeed, I have seen it too, but the Mrs. Mel I have met is a devout Protestant, There will never be a bitter image on her cross necklace like this Mrs Mayer!”

    Evan glanced at that time, until he knelt before the statue of Jesus, and finally understood why he felt strange, because the cross was a Catholic cross, he did not know one Real priests are so sensitive, so they are so slow, and after that, there seems to be a more reasonable explanation for why Mrs. Mel didn’t come to church. A faithful Catholic will never enter a Protestant church.

    Mrs. Mel covered her chest immediately when Evan said what she said. This act of self-advocacy made everyone present look complicated.

    Sheriff Chandler frowned and said solemnly: “Is what the pastor said true? Madam, please let me check your cross, if you refuse, I will application for enforcement.”

    Mrs. Mel’s face was completely pale at this time. She looked at Sheriff Chandler with trembling all over, but her hand was tightly holding Colonel Mel’s arm, and she couldn’t say a word. .

     Colonel Mel looked at Mrs. Mel sluggishly, and then smiled coldly: “Cross? Hahahahahahaha…” He looked up and laughed like crazy: ” Can’t you put down your cross by now?” There was a hint of bitterness in his tone, and he looked at Mrs. Mel with a sad expression.

    Mrs. Mel also looked at Colonel Mel, and tears welled up in her eyes: “Charlie, Charlie…” At this moment, she seemed to only call this name.

    “Pastor Bruce.” Colonel Mel suddenly turned his head and looked at Evan with indifference: “My wife should be religious halfway through, I don’t think it’s a big deal, you use this It’s too absurd to prove that my wife is a nun, you have also met my wife, can there be such two people in this world?”

    Evan knew that Colonel Mel would not give in easily, he smiled softly: “Before this, I didn’t believe it, but after this incident, I dare not take it easy again Assert anything.”

    He waved his hand behind him, followed by Butler Chris and walked out. After a while, Butler Chris walked in with a middle-aged nun, she looked kind and looked at She looks like the most ordinary middle-aged woman in the world, but her sharp eyes and the corners of her mouth have proved to people that she is not as gentle as she looks on the surface.

    “This is Dean Tracy of the monastery. I think among us, only she has the most say.” Evan said calmly.

    The moment Dean Tracy came in, Colonel Mel’s expression changed. He always thought that this old mammy should now be in the slums of Calcutta with the lowly poor people, But now she appeared in his living room, ready to testify against her crime.

     Dean Tracy glanced at Mrs. Mel who was hiding behind Mel and said a word, a trace of disgust and dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes, she said coldly: “She is indeed Eliza. “

    Her words were stiff and cold, as if they had no emotion, which made everyone present chill.

    But Evan did not seem to have received any influence, he smiled and looked at the pale Mrs. Mel and Colonel Mel: “My dear lady, oh, no , I should say my dear Mother Eliza, do you have anything else to say?”

    Elysa was completely frozen at this time, and she didn’t seem to have much courage in the face of this stern nun.

    “You…why did you come back?” She whispered, with a hint of despair in her tone: “Didn’t you say you want to go to Calcutta to fulfill your long-cherished wish? Why did you come back?”

     Dean Tracy wrinkled her nose in disgust, then returned to her usual indifference, and said in a flat tone: “I’m in Calcutta, I heard that you passed away, so I want to come back to see you. “

    “Look at me?” Eliza cried and laughed, with a very strange expression: “I always thought you hated me, but you would give up your ideals for me, don’t you know? If you don’t stay in Calcutta for a year this time, the church will give up its promise to you, and you’ll still be huddled in this little monastery forever, with no way out.”

    “I know.” Compared to Eliza’s rich feelings, Sister Tracey is as cold and hard as a rock, but this simple reply made Eliza completely stunned , She looked at the person in front of her incredulously, as if she was looking at some kind of monster.

    “My mission is complete, may I leave?” Sister Tracey looked at Duke Wilson behind Evan and asked with a flat expression.

    Duke Wilson was also at war between heaven and man at this time. Hearing her question, he just nodded casually. Sister Tracy nodded slightly, turned and left.

    Sister Tracy’s departure seemed to have injected a boost of heart into this weird living room, and it boiled instantly.

    “This is actually true!” Sheriff Chandler looked at Colonel Mel and Eliza excitedly: “You two! You two are… shameful!” After holding back for a long time, I finally came up with a word.

    Colonel Mel had a cold face and no expression, Eliza was hugged tightly in his arms, her face was sad and sad.

    Evan stood by and watched, but he was only amused, he smiled and said: “What can Colonel Mel do? Eliza is absolutely unable to leave the church, if he wants to To be with Eliza can only be done this way, why do you think Colonel Mel would marry a lady of ordinary status? There are so many ladies who are crazy about him, and he ends up marrying a woman who is nothing You should know by now that he married not her, but her face.”

    Evan said this with a smile, but the meaning of this sentence was cold and chilling.
