Katherine was distracted throughout the class as she kept thinking that she would drop another two Levels the next day into a Level Two Master if she did not look for Darryl immediately.She was extremely frustrated.She returned to her office as soon as the class was over to make a desperate call to Darryl.No one picked up....Donghai City First Hospital.Darryl kept pacing outside the operation room because he just could not stand still. Worry was written all over his face and his bloodshot eyes were red.Shelly Sullivan performed the operation herself after Lily was sent to the hospital.They had not come out of the operation room since the surgery started at 11.00 pm the night before.Despite the fact that he was overwhelmed with anxiety and rage, Darryl still prayed for Lily as he waited for more than 10 hours.‘We finally accepted each other after three years, you have to be fine.’The lights of the surgery sign were off and Shelly walked out with exhaustion.Darryl
A few rich ladies followed behind Samantha into the ward.One of them had a fox fur coat on with a necklace and many rings.Darryl was amused.‘Haha, she’s wearing fox fur right after the Mid-Autumn Festival. She does look loaded with it but isn’t it hot and stuffy?’Samantha trotted over and asked in a worried tone, “Lilybud, how are you feeling?”She spent the whole night playing mahjong and she was only told about her daughter this morning.The ladies who came with her were clearly her mahjong buddies.Lily shook her head and answered weakly, “Mom, I’m fine. Don’t worry.”Samantha heaved a sigh of relief before turning to Darryl, her anger visible in her eyes, “You piece of trash! Lilybud has always been a good person and yet this happened when she was together with you! You were right beside her but you allowed this to happen? Are you a man? Tell me, is she hurt because of you?!”Darryl smiled bitterly and replied, “Mother, I apologize, it is my fault. I did not take good
Lily was extremely disappointed with her mother.She clearly promised her that she would not play mahjong anymore.She did not expect her to call her mahjong buddies immediately after she went out.Her friend even went to the hospital to demand payment. How embarrassing.“Sophie, can you kindly give me two days?” Samantha smiled and continued, “You know my son-in-law, he was married into our family and stayed with us so of course, he wouldn’t have any money. Can you just give me a few days, for old times’ sake?”Samantha was filled up with pent-up anger every time someone mentioned her good-for-nothing son-in-law.Aside from getting her daughter injured, he was of no help when she fell into debt.Sophie sneered, it was clear that there was no room to argue. “Samatha, stop talking. Your daughter has to leave the hospital if you don’t pay up today. I’m calling my nephew, just wait.”She took out her phone and dialed a number.“No, please!” Samantha lost her cool the moment Sophi
Lily was still recovering from her injuries. Her condition would definitely worsen if they touched her wound.However, the men could not care less about her and proceeded to surround the hospital bed.“What’s going on in here?”A deep voice sounded from the door at that crucial moment.A man walked into the room.It was Darryl.Samantha stood up abruptly when she saw him, “This is my son-in-law, he will pay on my behalf! Look for him for the money! You can break his legs if he doesn’t have it.”Caelan had no idea who was it as Darryl was facing his back. Caelan furrowed his brows and turned.He was stunned!‘Hall Master?’‘Why is he here?’Caelan’s subordinates were also confused. They stared at Darryl in a daze and they were unable to react for a while!‘Is the woman in the hospital bed the Hall Master’s wife? It can’t be!’The men finally reacted and greeted, “Greetings, Hall Master…”Darryl waved an arm to interrupt them and turned to Caelan, “What’s the matter? Why ar
“Hurry up, I have to pay for my mother-in-law’s debt.” Darryl shook his head.He always adhered to his principles.He had to pay the debt even if Caelan was his subordinate because those were two different things.“Hall Master, stop putting me in a difficult position here. How am I supposed to take your money?” asked Caelan in anguish.“Why not?” interrupted Sophie as she took a step forward and said, “I won the two million! Caelan, have you mistaken him for someone else? He is just a live-in son-in-law! Why are you afraid of him?”“Aunt, stop talking! Please!” Caelan thumped his chest as he was on the verge of losing his sanity. He then knocked his head on the floor, “Darryl, my aunt does not know the rules, I apologize on her behalf, I’m sorry…”He kept knocking his head on the floor as he apologized, his forehead was starting to bleed.“Fine, get up.” Darryl waved his hand in dismissal.Sophie finally shut her mouth and forced a smile, “Samantha, well… I have something else
Darryl drank a substantial amount ended up tipsy. He stood up to go to the washroom.One of his men held him for support and asked, “Hall Master, how about I take you there?”“It’s fine.” Darryl waved in dismissal.He was indeed getting drunk. Actually, he could just utilize his Internal Energy to force the alcohol out of his system as a cultivator. However, it was a joyous reunion, and everyone intended to get drunk.Darryl wobbled downstairs, the washroom was on the ground floor.He noticed a crowd near him when he reached the ground floor. There were a dozen young adults and they seemed like students from a university nearby. Darryl was turning into a corner when a youngster who was occupied with his phone knocked into him. Thud!His phone almost fell to the ground.Darryl was speechless.It was absurd that he could crash into him when there was so much space in the lobby.“Are you blind?”The youngster was triggered, “Watch where you’re going!” He was covered with bra
“Lester, please stop pestering him. Can you do it for me?” Dora pushed Darryl behind her.She was well aware that Lester’s family was involved with the mafia. She heard that Lester’s father had dozens of fighters. Darryl would suffer terrible consequences if he offended Lester.Although Darryl was a businessman and Jade, the manager from Windon Group called him daddy at the villa previously, he could not afford to offend the mafia.Lester sighed and squinted, “I’m going to let you off since Dora asked me to. Be careful the next time I see you.”His male friends walked near Darryl and spat.“You’re lucky.”“You’re lucky that Young Master Lester is in a good mood today or you’d be f*cked.”Darryl smiled without saying a word as he thought, ‘All of you would be on the way to the hospital right now if not for Dora. There are more than a hundred disciples from the Eternal Life Palace Sect drinking upstairs, I wonder what will happen if Lester Rock started a fight with me and those di
Dax would definitely look for the Dixon family for revenge if he knew.He would be at a disadvantage as the Dixon family was way too powerful. Darryl would rather hand everything to Caelan.Dax grinned, “I see, you must have been getting all lovey-dovey with Lily at home. By the way, our teacher was looking for you yesterday.”‘Katherine?’Darryl was stunned before he remembered the few missed calls from her, he forgot to return her calls. Her strength must be dropping substantially these few days.Circe Newman who was seated in front turned suddenly and threw him a note.F*ck!Dax grabbed onto Darryl’s arm as if he got a stroke!‘What’s happening? Why is the beauty sending me a note?’Darryl fell into a daze as Dax leaned into him excitedly and asked with surprise, “Wow, Darryl, you’ve gotten close to the campus belle within these few days?”Darryl chuckled, “Yeah.”He unfolded the note and it was written, ‘Are you free tonight? I’ll buy you dinner.’‘Haha, She is pretty p
