    Duke Wilson has always done things neatly. Since he agreed to Ferd, he would naturally not break his promise. The next day he went to the police officer of the county court. It can be considered that he grew up watching him from a young age, this matter still has to give Duke Wilson a little face.

    Therefore, this matter was settled smoothly, and the Lord Judge quickly gave the green light to the Church of Derain Lier, allowing the bank to compensate the church for the money lost by the church.

    This solution caught Evan by surprise. The Duke's influence was too great in this era, and Evan felt this for the first time.

    Evan did not participate in the specific handover of this matter. It was carried out between Sheriff Chandler and Ferd from beginning to end. It was not until this matter was resolved that Ferd came to Cornwall again. Earl Manor.

    Duke Wilson's impatience this time was beyond words, and he looked at Ferd with an indifferent expression as if he hadn't seen him.

    "Lord Duke, please accept my most sincere thanks. This time it is thanks to your help." Ford said gently as if he did not see Duke Wilson's expression.

    The expression on Duke Wilson's face remained unchanged, and he said coldly: "You are polite, this matter is also because of Pastor Bruce. He is my best friend. This trivial matter is nothing to worry about."

    Ferd's smile suddenly froze on his face. He glanced at Evan sitting next to him with complicated eyes.

    "In any case, the bishop will be very grateful for your help to the church this time." In order to save his face, Ford could only take it vaguely.

    Duke Wilson had no intention of stepping on the church's face on the ground.

    But Ferd became more enthusiastic and continued: "By the way, I don't know if you know, this time about Mr. Johnson's matter, Sheriff Chandler has already figured out."

    Evan's expression changed, and Duke Wilson's face also showed a hint of interest: "Oh?" He glanced at Ferd: "I haven't heard of that."

    With Duke Wilson's prestige in the town, if Ford can know something he doesn't know, it means that this thing is really rare.

    "Sheriff Chandler just found a witness to prove that on the day of Mr. Johnson's death, Mrs. Johnson was seen sneaking out of the meeting place of the Women's Association and returning to her home." Ferd's expression was very intriguing.

    Duke Wilson couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and he glanced back at Evan. As far as he knew, Evan also took this matter very seriously.

    But Evan fell into deep thought at this time. His eyes suddenly flashed before his eyes when he first met Mrs. Hanson. He was arrogant and cold, not like a new widow at all, but when he met for the second time , she turned into a weak widow, such a woman can indeed do murder.

    "Then what is Sheriff Chandler going to do?" Duke Wilson asked himself when he saw that Evan was obviously stunned.

    Ferd also noticed Evan's unusual reaction, and couldn't help but hooked his lips and whispered: "I heard that the lady has been summoned to the police station by the sheriff. As for how to deal with it, I don't know yet. knowledge."

    Hearing this, Duke Wilson frowned in disgust. This matter is too complicated and confusing. He arrested two people one after another. really don't know if it is true this time.

    After saying this, Ferd said his goodbye with a wink. When he came to Cornwall Manor this time, the main task was to express his gratitude to the duke. When he arrived at the Bishop's place, because of his poor work, he alarmed the Duke and was reprimanded by the Bishop. Although Ferd completed the task this time, he was not in a very good mood.

    After Ferd left Cornwall Manor, he returned to his hut. He has been living in a hut behind the church for the past few days. This was originally the residence of the night watchman, but this time because of his arrival, The Night's Watch was driven out and crowded with the deacon, and he took up residence in the single hut.

    Ferde has enjoyed the riches and honors of the world since he was a child. For him, this hut is extremely frugal, but today is different from the past. The current Ferde may not even look at this place before facing him. In the hut, he could only swallow his breath, and he had to greet everyone with a smile.

    Ferd felt very aggrieved by this situation, but thinking of his brother's previous instructions, he could only endure it and couldn't offend the noble count at this time. After all, his father had passed away, and his brother All he can do for him can only get here, and more importantly, he came to this ghost place this time, not only because of survival, but also because of that person...

    Fuld gritted his teeth, his expression twisted, that person... the shameless villain who ruined his life!

    Fuld wanted Evan to be ruined, he wanted him to fall apart, and he wanted to give him a taste of being trapped in hell.

    Fuld's fists were clenched tightly, and there was a faint light in his eyes. This day is not far away, and his arrangements for the past few days will soon be realized.

    Ferd couldn't help laughing. He looked at the complete property transfer document at hand, and his mood finally improved a lot. His mission has been completed, but Evan's disaster has just arrived.

    At this moment, Mrs. Sanders' voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Mr. Ford, Dr. Hester and Miss Arya are here."

    Ferd frowned slightly, and he was a little uneasy in his heart. As far as he knew, Dr. Hester and Miss Alia had always been guests of the Duke's mansion, but since Evan entered and left the Duke of Wilson's mansion , the two were clearly alienated a lot.

    "Mr. Hester is here?" Ferd opened the door, looked at the middle-aged woman who was calm and indifferent, and said in a low voice, "Are they looking for me?"

    "Of course." Mrs. Sanders' words were short and cold, as if with a hint of sarcasm, mocking Ferd's meaningless question.

    Ferd gritted his teeth in his heart but had a gentle look on his face, and said warmly, "Thank you for your information."

    Because of the special relationship between these two people and Duke Wilson, he has been in contact with Dr. Hester since he discovered the deep relationship between Evan and Duke Wilson, hoping to find something useful here. s things.

    Dr. Hester is a typical country gentleman. He is honest and steady, and likes to rhetoric. According to Ferd's observation, although Dr. Hester has a big mouth, he does not reveal any important information. It was his favorite reasoning, saying nothing about Duke Wilson.

    This annoyed Ferde at first, because he suddenly found out that he had been tricked by a douchebag, but only after getting in touch with the doctor's daughter, did Ferde finally realize that among the father and daughter, the best It was the stubborn Miss Arya who made the breakthrough.

    Ferd came to the front hall of the church. Arya and Dr. Hester were praying with their fingers crossed in front of the Jesus statue. Ferd stood patiently and waited, with a gentle expression.

    After a long time, Dr. Hester was the first to open his eyes, crossed his chest, said 'Amen', and finally ended his prayer.

    "Mr. Fuld!" When he saw Fuld standing aside, he shouted in surprise.

    Fuld smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and snorted, "Please don't let me interfere with Miss Arya's prayer." He said weakly.

    Arya's closed eyelashes trembled slightly, and she opened her eyes.

    "You are really a gentleman." Arya looked at Ferd with admiration.

    Ferd pursed his lips and smiled: "You have won the prize. You are a devout believer. This is a good thing for the entire church."

    Alia smiled a little embarrassedly. In fact, she is not a very pious person, but when she can no longer enter and leave the Duke's mansion at will, this is the only place that can make her feel calm.

    "Mr. Verde, have you finished your work this time?" Dr. Hester looked at him tentatively.

    Fuld's expression turned slightly and nodded: "God bless, it's done."

    Dr. Hester's eyes gleamed brightly: "Ah! It's really done! Then do you know what theories Sheriff Chandler has on this case this time?"

    After hearing this, Ferd couldn't help laughing in his heart. Since this incident happened at the meeting, Dr. Hester has been making inferences, but all his reasoning seems very out of place, and there is no such thing as of now. One thing was right, but he was very enthusiastic about it, so Ferd paid a little more attention to it.

    "My dear doctor, you are a gentleman. I can't tell you about this, I hope you can understand."

    Although Fuld said this, Dr. Hester's eyes had long been terrifyingly bright. Fuld's words couldn't be more obvious, and it was definitely done by Mrs. Johnson.

    "Oh...Oh, of course." Hester nodded calmly: "This matter is really terrible, I hope it can be resolved as soon as possible."

    Dr. Hester tried desperately to hide his excitement, but in the end he was unsuccessful. His clenched fists and excited eyes showed no regret in his tone at all.

    As if he didn't see the change in Dr. Hester's expression, Ford nodded solemnly: "Yes, I hope so too, and Duke Wilson also thinks the same."

    When he said the second half of the sentence, Ferd kept aiming at Arya from the corner of his eyes. Seeing her face pale and stiff, there was a smile on the corner of Ferd's mouth.

    "Master... the Duke?" Alia asked stumblingly, "Have you seen the Duke?"

    Ferd smiled gently: "Yes, in order to thank the Duke for his generous help this time, I went to the Duke's mansion."

    A flash of excitement flashed in Arya's eyes, and she immediately asked, "Is he okay, Lord Duke?"

    Ferd looked at Arya in surprise: "The Duke is naturally very good, but Pastor Bruce still looks a little pale."

    "Pastor Bruce..." Arya bit her lip: "He... does he still live in the duke's mansion?"

    Ferd was about to answer, but Dr. Hester suddenly interjected: "Mr. Reverend is seriously injured and has not recovered. Of course he lives in the Duke's Mansion."

    Unusually, Dr. Hester looked at Arya with an almost stern look.
