Chapter 416 Give You Justice(Chapter Preview)

"This.. this is all your doing!!" shouted the man and before anyone could understand what he was saying, he pounced on Edward and held his shirt with an attempt to slap him.

"What.. What are you saying? I didn't even know you, my lord.'' He tried his best to signal Matthews to not forget their plans.

They should not be here in the first place. A look of rage filled his eyes. Why were they blaming him now when they drank the tea without thinking twice of getting enamored by his daughter.

He didn't understand what they saw in her. She was still like a commoner with no charm in her except good looks.

"Ha! You are the one who brewed the tea. What have you mixed in it? Do not tell me that you want to get rid of us now that you have achieved your targets!

Do you think we would let it go! Trust me Edward when I say that I will make sure you end up in hell if you try to deceive us!" he growled as his eyes field with madness that shocked Edward for a minute too.

What had happened, why was Matthews speaking like that? That should have been their secret!

"Poison! The tea had poison in it!" Everyone turned to look at Evangeline who was holding the cup in her hands with a bewildered gaze as if asking how she knew!

"Our family always keeps some divine water and sprinkles it on our food to make sure that we do not get poisoned by any traitor in our staff or by a third person.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Since the tea was brewed by Edward, we have not checked it yet. But now that i sprinkle divine water on it.." she halted as she took out a small bottle of silver fluid and then added a drop of it on the tea cup.

"Spark" "boom" "crash!"

The water blasted like there was gunpowder in it and smoke started to form all over it shocking everyone out of their wits.

Even Evan, who had passed the bottle to her father, was shocked. She had clearly written the instructions that only a few drops would be enough to kill them. But still the man had added so much to it.

No doubt the man died instantly and other who had not even taken a sip were suffering so much.

Just how much hatred the man has for all of them.

"That.. I did not know anything about it." scared out of his wits, Edward pushed Matthews away who was vomiting blood just like Mustuf and took a few steps away from all of them.

His face had turned ashen and a layer of cold sweat had formed over his nape.

This… this was not how it was supposed to be! The duke should have been at the place of Mustuf!

William should have died so that he could take his place and blame his own son over the matter. He just has to pay the maid for taking the blame and then alleging Leo that he had paid her to do so.

But now.. Where did things go wrong! How did this happen! He pulled his hair out of frustration as he shook his head.

"No! It is not my mistake. It is Evangeline. She had done it. It was all her fault from the start.`` He looked at her with a cold look but beneath it was desperation to come out of the swamp he had fallen in.

He could feel the pressure. The more he tried to struggle and get out of it, the more swamp was swallowing him. Now she had to take his place. Since she was the seed of every problem.

"Tell them! Tell everyone that it was all your doing NOW!!" he yelled as he ran to her and held her shoulders tightly to jerk him badly.

His eyes had gone red and filled with hatred. His expression was so cold as if he would strangle her if she would not accept what he was saying!

Looking at the expressions on the man, even her bones turned cold. She knew that the man had never loved her and always treated her as a pawn. But to ask her to die at his place and accept all the crimes he had done so blatantly made her heart go numb.

Had he ever looked at her like his daughter or even as a human? She continued to stare at him with her hollow eyes.

Though Leo had warned her that he could ask her to accept his crimes, she felt nauseous looking at his expressions.

"You! What are you waiting for? Tell everyone it is your doing you wench!" He raised his hands with a desire to beat her to remind her who she was and what she was supposed to do.

How dare she look straight into his eyes with so much disgust! She was…

"Pak!" but just when he was about to slap her a strong pair of hands took her away and slapped him instead.

"Don't you dare touch my daughter with your filthy hands or I will cut them off without giving you another chance!"

"Thud!" another slap landed on his other cheek which was strong enough for Edward to lose his balance and fell on the ground. His hands instinctively covered his cheek when he could feel the metallic taste in his mouth.

He looked at Evan with shocked expressions on her face but behind them was hatred as if asking her why she was not telling everyone that she was behind all this. How could she see him in pain?

Was she not grateful for what he had done for her all his life!

"Ha! I did not know what you were talking about. I haven't seen you since this morning. But if you are innocent, I will try my best to give you justice.

I will personally help the knights in investigating the matter!"
