Chapter 1913 [1913] Why don’t I quite understand?
"His Excellency the Duke of Buckingham..." The call was connected almost instantly, and the moment it was connected, the voice of Earl William, which sounded respectful and flattering, was heard immediately.
"Old William, we are old acquaintances, right?" The Duke of Buckingham interrupted him before he could finish his words.
"Of course." Earl William seemed to have sensed something unusual, and the flattering tone in his voice became even stronger. "Before this, I have always been proud of being an old acquaintance of His Excellency the Duke of Buckingham."
"At home, I often teach my younger generations to learn a lot from you, Your Excellency the Duke."
"Learn from your great love, justice, and kindness, Your Excellency the Duke..."
"Then why would one of your descendants, Flim, do such a shameless thing as forcing a girl to be his dog in public and cutting anyone who stood up to help into pieces?" The Duke of Buckingham interrupted him again before he could finish his words.
"I heard someone tell me just a few minutes ago."
"That guy named Philim in your family did a lot of perverted things to pursue the girl. After failing to pursue the girl, he threatened to destroy her family and make her beg him to be his dog."
"When someone stood up and did something righteous, he immediately ordered his bodyguards to act like mad dogs, humiliating and tearing the person to pieces in public."
"..."
On the other side of the phone, in a unique British-style mansion, Earl William, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and was enjoying the massage service of his maid, couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart when he heard these words.
Because of this incident, just after listening to the beginning, he felt it sounded very familiar.
It was exactly the same situation as what Philim had just described to him on the phone.
Thinking of the Duke of Buckingham's past style, if he were to investigate the matter in depth, all of Philim's previous bad deeds would probably be thoroughly investigated, and both Philim and himself would suffer. He hurriedly asked the revealingly sexy maid to step aside, and then changed to an unimaginable tone and said, "Is there such a thing?"
"Your Excellency, I have never heard of this before."
"Well, wait a moment. I'll call Philim and ask him what happened. Is that okay?" "If that guy really did something so awful, I will give His Excellency the Duke a satisfactory explanation!"
The first thing Earl William thought of was to play dumb and get himself out of the situation, while also using a delaying tactic to buy himself some time to think of a countermeasure.
He subconsciously believed that the Duke of Buckingham might not know the specific situation yet, and he called only because he received some news, so he came to confirm the situation with him.
But what he didn't expect was that just as he opened his mouth, the Duke of Buckingham sneered at the other end of the phone, "Never heard of it before?"
"Old William, it seems that you really want to disappoint me completely."
"When I heard the phone call, I was a little reluctant to believe that my old acquaintance would be like that behind his back, but now after hearing your explanation, I have really given up."
Earl William immediately smelled something wrong.
His eyelids twitched for no reason, and he hurriedly said, "Your Excellency the Duke, what do you mean by this? I don't quite understand."
"Did I do something wrong to make you unhappy?"
"Please explain clearly!"
At this moment, the Duke of Buckingham probably completely lost his patience. He sneered and said directly, "In addition to receiving a phone call, I just received all the surveillance videos of the scene where the incident occurred."
"It's clearly recorded in the surveillance video. After your descendant, Philim, committed a series of crimes and was prevented from committing further crimes by a royal agent, he called you."
"And your expression in that phone call was completely different from what it is now!"
