“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
With that in mind, Jade glared at Jack. “What are you still doing here? Get lost!” Jack trembled and staggered up. He was sad and disheartened as he had anticipated to get the keys today and have a good time with Lisa. Yet this happened. ‘This was all Lisa’s fault for being such a gold digger!’ Jack thought. After walking away, Lisa asked him softly, “Where are we going tonight?” “Damn you! Go wherever you want, and get lost! I don’t want to see you again!” Jack yelled. If it were not for her vanity, Jack would not have offended someone he could never afford to offend. He even got Jade into trouble. After yelling at Lisa, he snatched his hand back and marched away. Meanwhile, Dora looked at Darryl with curiosity, ‘Who was he?’ Darryl did not feel like exploring the area any longer, so he said goodbye to Dora and went to get some fruits from the supermarket. He hummed joyfully on his way back home. However, the moment he stepped into the villa, Samantha walked out of h
The next morning, Lily woke Darryl up. “Wake up; we need to go to school.” Darryl stretched and sat up slowly. He was so hooked by the book last night that he went to bed late. Lily handed him clothes. “Go wash your face, and I’ll make you breakfast.” She turned and went to the kitchen. Darryl was shocked by the warm and fuzzy feeling lingering in his heart. In the past three years, Lily had never made him breakfast. Darryl used to prepare their meals for them, but now her attitude had changed entirely. He was still not used to it. Today was their first official day at The Hexad School. By the time Darryl arrived, almost every student from every class had arrived. ‘Weird. Why was Dax not in? Did he oversleep?’ Darryl thought. As Darryl stepped into the class, he frowned. His headteacher taught the first period on human acupoints. Katherine wrote: [Human Acupoints] on the board, and started teaching. “The temple, also known as the strange acupoint outside our meridian
He was sending the message behind his desk, so how did she realize? Darryl let out a sigh. “Miss Katherine, I wasn’t playing with my phone. I’m just checking the time.” With that, he was about to keep his phone. “Don’t you talk back when you’ve made a mistake. Give me the phone,” Katherine declared with a cold tone that made it obvious her order was non-negotiable. She snatched his phone. “Darryl, you’re already a live-in son-in-law. Why do you show no remorse? You should appreciate the opportunity to study at The Hexad School and work hard. Others can fool around because they’re from wealthy families; even if they don’t succeed, it’s okay. But you? You’re fooling around. No wonder everyone’s laughing at you!” Katherine turned and walked back to the podium. Darryl was helpless, and he mumbled, “What’s so bad about being a live-in son-in-law? I’m living just fine.” Although his voice was soft, Katherine heard it clearly, and so did the students around him. ‘Huh? The ki
The Oriental Pearl was the best hotel in the city. Of course, he had to pick the best hotel since it was their first gathering. Hearing that they were going to the Oriental Pearl, the class was in an uproar. Everyone walked out of the classroom happily. Once they got out of school, everyone went into their cars. Since most of the students were from wealthy families, most of them drove here and offered a ride to those who did not come with a car. Since Lily sent Darryl here this morning, he needed a ride from someone else, but most of the cars were filled up by now. Darryl glanced around and saw that Declan’s car still had an empty seat. Declan was driving, and Miles was sitting in the passenger’s seat. In the back were Dax’s cousins, Daisy and Daphne, and there was an empty seat. Darryl pulled open the car door and was about to go in, but Daisy pushed him away and looked at him with disgust. “Darryl, can’t you go with someone else?” “Why? All the other cars are filled up. I
Watching the scene, Drake Darby could not restrain his excitement and said to Old Master Darby, “Dad, the Big Dipper Formation is so well choreographed! Their attacks and defenses were tight and solid. With this formation, the Darby family will live in glory!” Although the three of them were only Level Three Masters, with the power of this formation, they would be able to fight a Martial Marquis! Old Master Darby smiled as he exclaimed with happiness, “The Big Dipper Formation is indeed one of the best formations.” Once they finished practicing, Florian kept his sword and walked toward him with excitement. “Grandpa, what do you think?” “Good, good, very good! You have all improved a lot lately. This is all beyond my expectations. I’m very pleased, and I’m sure you all will bring glory to the Darby family,” Old Master Darby praised with a smile.Florian was overjoyed by what Old Master Darby said.“Don’t worry, Grandpa, I’ll work even harder!” he promised. Old Master Darb
If these Emei followers stayed at the Darby mansion, Florian might even stand a chance with some of them. Or so he thought. Hearing that, Yumi came up behind him and pinched him. “What are you so excited about?” Yumi knew her husband well enough to understand how perverted his mind was. If he wasn’t perverted, he would not have assaulted Rebecca. This useless trash must have seen that the Abbess Mother Serendipity was gorgeous and began having dirty thoughts about her. “What? I’m just concerned that the Emei followers have nowhere else to stay, and I feel bad for them,” Florian answered with a straight face. Yumi stared at him but remained silent. Old Master Darby waved his hand and smiled at the Abbess Mother Serendipity, “Alright, you all may stay at my mansion. Shaolin and Emei have always had a good relationship, which will further improve our bond, so why not? We have plenty of rooms here anyway.” Since they were all here already, he had no choice but to agree. T
