“Dax Sanders?” Lily was shocked to see Dax walking like normal.‘Wasn’t he stabbed and cut with thirty or so knives? Why does he seem just fine?’ Lily thought as she bit her lips “Dax, I’m so sorry for the other night-” she muttered. Before letting her finish, Dax laughed and waved it off. “That was nothing. Darryl’s like my brother, so of course, I’d jump in right away when I see you in danger. Haha!” Dax’s laugh instantly made the whole scene seem less awkward. Lily smiled and glanced at Darryl. She saw that Darryl did not respond to her and started panicking. “Darryl, please, please don’t stay mad at me. I’m really sorry, I really am,” Lily pleaded as she bit her lips. Darryl took in a long breath, his face was still emotionless. No, he was not pretending to be mad at her; he was actually still mad. All his life, he had always wanted a trustworthy best-friend. He used to have many friends when he was still in the Darby family, but all these ‘friends’ ran and hid from
Megan helped Kent up. He was her fiancé, so how could she feel good watching him get beaten? Megan and Dax ‘worked’ closely together. While Dax was well-known for his bad reputation in the city, Megan was well-known for being the most attractive policewoman. They had to cross one another’s path every so often. Dax was equivalent to a ‘street’ king in Donghai City, but Megan could not go after him unless he was doing something very illegal. Dax spat on the floor as he walked to the side. “Damn it, he asked for it!” Kent cried out dry tears. The punch was so painful that his head was still buzzing. No matter how pissed off he was, he did not dare speak up. Megan let out a sigh when she saw Dax walking away. She grabbed Darryl’s hand and pulled him to the side. “Hey, why are you pulling me?” Darryl questioned. By then, both of them were far away from the crowd. Megan stopped.“My Good big brother, I have a favor to ask you,” Megan said softly, biting her lips. “What?”
The classroom was in an uproar after the teacher introduced herself. The male students were ecstatic. Not only were they lucky enough to be in the same class as Circe Newman, but they also had a gorgeous teacher. “Miss Katherine, you’re so pretty. Do you have a boyfriend?” a voice asked from the back row. Lots of male students added their remarks in their attempts to flirt with Katherine, especially the wealthy kids that were used to picking up girls wherever they went. The guy who spoke from the back row was Ryan Nicholas. His family opened a chain of supermarkets in Donghai City. Katherine, who was at the podium, raised her hand and pointed at Ryan. “You stand up.” Ryan stood up with a grin. He had no idea what was about to happen. Katherine walked over to him with a stick in her hand. She stopped in front of him, and asked coldly, “Have you been to school before? Has anyone told you to respect your teachers?” Looking at her glare, Ryan started to panic. “I…” Smack!
“What are you all laughing at? Shut up!” Katherine glared at the class. A strong vibration permeated from her energy field once again. Suddenly, everyone in the class stopped laughing. Although they still glanced at Darryl with a mocking look. Katherine glared at Darryl, “Look at you, why do you fight? You’re not Dax; you don’t have a powerful family. What makes you think you can fight?” ‘Damn it. What did I do? Stupid Kent insulted me, and I only kicked him in return.’ Darryl thought to himself but did not say it out loud. Katherine continued, “I don’t care who you are. In this class, every one of you will cultivate and not cause any trouble. The two of you fought at the entrance on the first day of school. That’s disrespectful. Go down to the field and run a hundred laps.” ‘Huh? A hundred laps?’ Dax thought. Dax’s face darkened. “A hundred laps? I won’t run a lap!” With that said, Dax sat down with an angry look. ‘Damn it, is she insane? Nobody had ever asked me to
‘What an unlucky day,’ Dax thought. Dax was panting breathlessly with his face looking stone cold as he did laps around the field with Darryl. “F*ck her! I’ll remember this Katherine woman. I’ve never been more insulted in my entire life!” Dax ranted as he ran. He had been slapped four times and punished to run a hundred laps. It was insulting to Dax.“Alright, with what we’ve got now, I doubt it’s the right time to take revenge. When you’re under someone, you really got to let go of your ego,” Darryl comforted Dax with a helpless look on his face. In the classrooms above them, the class teacher let the students do some self-study after introducing themselves. In Year One Class Seventeen, Kent Hough was sitting by the window. As he was bored, he looked out of the window and saw what was happening in the field. “Haha! Everyone look over there! Isn’t that the live-in son-in-law? He’s been punished to run laps around the field!” he yelled excitedly. Everyone in his c
In the past few days, Lily had been feeling incredibly guilty. With no response from Darryl, she grew more anxious and held on to his wrist. “I’m really sorry, Darryl. Please, will you come home with me?” Darryl acted as if he did not hear her. He continued talking to Dax, “Let’s go, hurry! Didn’t you say you want to find a place to shower? Let’s grab a drink after you shower.” Dax shook his head. “I’m not drinking with you! I’m not going to shower either. Your wife asked you to go home.” With that said, Dax turned and ran away. “Darryl, I really am sorry. Please forgive me, and come home with me?” Lily begged with her eyes red as she hugged Darryl from behind. She had reflected a lot on her past actions these few days and regretted everything she had ever said or done to Darryl. “If you’re not coming home with me, I’ll follow you wherever you go,” Lily pleaded, biting on her lips. After hearing that, Darryl took a long deep breath. “Fine, fine, fine! I’ll come wit
“So, you came here to visit the area just like me?” Dora chirped enthusiastically. ‘Visit?’ Darryl thought. He was caught off guard for a little bit. Dora was a university student majoring in architecture design. At the end of the semester, they had to submit some drafts. Dora heard that Windon Real Estate had built top-notch luxury villas, so she came here for inspiration. She was surprised to see Darryl. “I’m here to visit, aren’t you?” she let out an astonished sigh. “These villas are way too pretty!” When Dora first met Darryl, he dressed like a security guard, and she assumed he worked security part-time. Today, Darryl was dressed casually, too, so she assumed he was a university student like herself who came here to visit. Darryl smiled but did not speak. “Oh yeah, which university are you from? Are you majoring in architecture design as well?” Dora chirped. “I’m…” Darryl was about to say The Hexad School. Dora continued talking before he could finish. “Ah!
‘The fat guy was Jade’s cousin? Jade was pretty, so why was her cousin so ugly and fat?’ Darryl thought. Darryl shook his head. “Lisa and Jack, right? Go home, they’ll listen to me, and we won’t sell you No. 99.” Lisa was caught off guard. She pointed at Darryl and scowled. “Listen to you? What did you say? That you won’t sell the villa to us? Are you a staff member here? Tsk, tsk, tsk, I knew it. You’re a security guard here, aren’t you? Since when does the security guard have the right to refuse a buyer, eh?” Her voice was loud and clear, and lots of passersby heard and gathered around them.Dora’s cheeks turned red, and she pulled on Darryl. “Let’s just go.” “Don’t go yet! Since your boyfriend is a security guard here, I’ll phone my cousin now and fire him.” Jack laughed. He picked up the phone and called Jade. She answered the call shortly after. “Jade, come here now. It’s urgent,” Jack said.“Please, please don’t make the call!” Dora panicked. She realized by now th
