Richard smiled wider and said, “Look at you, how could I ever punish you! Shelly, I’ve liked you for a very long time. If you’re willing to be with me, I’ll treat you well. The position of Deputy Head is still vacant, there are loads of contenders, you know…” Richard grabbed Shelly’s hand and hugged her. “Chief! Please don’t do that!” exclaimed Shelly. She struggled, Richard has a strong grip on her. He showed his true colors. He gave an evil smile, ignored Shelly’s plea, and pressed her on to the sofa. SLAM! The door of the office was kicked open. Darryl entered with a cheerful smile. He was looking for Shelly in her office but heard that she was called by the Chief of Staff to his office, so he came to have a look. When he arrived at the door, he heard Shelly’s screams. “You!” Richard was shocked. He then shouted, “Who the f*ck let you in? F*ck off!” Richard used to think that Darryl was a big shot, that he should show some respect. Upon hearing that Darryl is just a live
Darryl was not in the mood, he replied curtly, “I’m at the City Hospital. Come and find me.” “Alright, I’ll be there shortly,” the caller laughed before hanging up. Richard—on the floor—spit blood out and glared at Darryl loathsomely. “I dare you to stay here!” He then pointed to Shelly and said, “You! You brought him here on purpose, didn’t you! Don’t even think about being a Director!” At that, he took his phone out, trying to dial a number. “Calling for backup? Sure, I’ll be here waiting,” Darryl laughed coldly. Shelly on the other hand was anxious. She approached Darryl and said softly, “Darryl, you better leave. Richard’s the Chief of Staff, he has important people as his backup. He knows many rich and powerful people.” Shelly was worried about how Darryl might not be able to leave the hospital in peace, as well as her own career here. “Don’t worry, I will handle it,” replied Darryl. Handle? Shelly was slightly dumbfounded. During Jackson’s wedding, Shelly could
THUD! Richard slammed against the office desk, then fell to the floor. He dare not shout in pain but looked at Zachariah with fear in his eyes, he said, “President Wright, I-” “Richard, you shut the hell up! I had expected more from you, yet you let me down greatly. You’re fired as the Chief of Staff,” Zachariah rebuked. “Pres…President…” Richard quivered, yet he could not move. Zachariah looked at Shelly and said, “As a doctor, the patient always comes first. You did the right thing. From now onwards, you’re the Chief of Staff.” What? Shelly trembled, her legs felt like jelly. She was expecting the worst possible outcome, yet she did not foresee that the circumstances would turn around so quickly. Suddenly, not only did she not lose her job, she got promoted? She could barely react to the news. Zachariah turned towards Darryl, smiled politely, and asked, “I’ve settled the issue. Mr. Darby, are you satisfied?” Darryl nodded and laughed, “President Wright, you are astute
Darryl—realizing Zachariah’s doubt—smiled gently and replied, “I know some, but if I’m not mistaken, the entire layout has been done by a feng shui master?” “Correct!” nodded Zachariah. Darryl continued, “And this fish tank, it only came after, right?” Zachariah replied, “Yes, this was given to me three years ago by a business partner.” “Exactly, this fish tank ruined the layout of the entire tower. Once the feng shui is messed up, the spiritual aura will be thinned. You practicing here will naturally be ineffective,” Darryl said with a smile. Zachariah was astounded. He could even deduce that the fish tank was a later addition. This young man was incredible! Darryl was not spewing nonsense. All the time, studying the book “The Geomancy of Yin and Yang” had paid off. It was embedded deeply in Darryl’s brain. “So, you mean, if I get rid of this fish tank, things will be restored?” asked Zachariah. Darryl nodded, “Yes, once you’ve rid of the fish tank, try cultivating aga
Eight-diagram mirror? Darryl laughed coldly, he faced Jackson and asked, “Brother, you suspect that I did it too?” Darryl is the closest to Jackson in the entire family, they are like biological brothers. Darryl believes that Jackson will not be like the others, blaming him without knowing the truth. However, Jackson’s reply made Darryl’s heart drop. “Second brother, I trust you. But I am more curious about the eight-diagram mirror. What’s the matter with that?” asked Jackson, without any feelings. The next second, Jackson was filled with resentment and rage, he screamed, “Do you know how long Rebecca and I were together? After so many years, we finally got married. Why would you do this? Why?!” “B*stard, leave at once! F*ck off!” Someone started throwing food at Darryl. “Darryl, please leave, you are not welcomed here!” “You and your parents, just die! Don’t ever come back here!” Darryl’s clothes were stained with food. His heart bled. He clenched his fist tightly
“Hall Master, please don’t be angry, what is most important for us now, is to look for Darryl,” Right at that moment, the follower at the side quickly persuaded, “After we have found Darryl, it won’t be too late for us to return to punish this Darby family.” Sigh! After listening to these words, Skyler took a deep breath and managed to lower his anger. It was true that he had stolen the secret manual, [Ascensions of the Nine Dragons], that belonged to the Cult Master. His plan was to make a copy of the manual then returned the original manual. However, before he managed to make a copy, Darryl had stolen the secret manual! The most important thing now was to locate the secret manual. If the Cult Master was to find out the secret manual was missing, he would be dead. Skyler glared at Yumi coldly and left with the rest. “What is all that about? They dressed like big evil, but in fact they were only petty thieves on the street. Darryl is useless, associating with this type of per
“Say it again?” The sales assistant was furious. “Don’t you feel ashamed of yourself? If you can’t afford then don’t come to a high-end mall like this. Wearing cheap clothes like yours, you still have the guts to come here. What if you dirty the dress when you try on the dress? Even if you didn’t dirty it, you would just leave without buying, waste of my time.” “That’s right, the girl is right.” The rich-looking lady added, “Being a sales assistant is not an easy job. If you don’t plan to buy then don’t try it on. There is a departmental store, the clothes there will suit you better.” “Darryl, let’s just go.” Lily pulled Darryl slightly, speaking silently. As a matter of fact, Lily was only teasing Darryl, she had no intention to get Darryl to buy the dress for her. Darryl signaled to Lily not to speak, then he replied with a smile, “Not only I want this dress, for all the designs you have in your boutique, I want all that of them as long as they are my wife’s size.” Right af
Wow! People surrounding them took a cold breath. “That’s crazy!” “Eight million bucks? It’s daylight robbery.” “Hungry for money, are you? All the things in your stall combined, wouldn’t have worth more than eight thousand.” Everyone was commenting, Yvonne and the few antique store owners were shaking their heads, smiling. Out of their expectation, someone came from behind. “Eight million? Fine, I’ll take it.” Darryl nodded after he gave a slight thought. Wow! Everyone went into a chaos at that moment. He was really buying it? Eight million for a broken rusted sword, was he out of his mind? At that moment, the few antique store owners were shaking their heads too. They had been observing the antique seller’s sword for a while. It was not even an antique item, it’s just some broken metal. Yvonne was the only one squeezing her brows light, thinking. Lily had no knowledge at antique items at all. However, seeing everyone’s reaction, she wanted to persuade Dar
