It was four o’clock in the morning when it began to drizzle, and Darryl gave in to sleep again. This time, he dreamt on and off throughout, and he vaguely felt someone kicking his leg. He suddenly woke up and looked up to see Dax standing by the door staring down at him with a huge grin on his face. “Darryl? Are you trying to make me laugh at you being my guard? Haha!” Dax laughed, rocking back and forth. In this instant, Darryl’s eyes watered as he tried his best to hold back his tears. ‘He was alive. Dax was alive!’ Darryl thought. He jumped up right away and hugged Dax so tightly in his arms. “Damn it. Why are you hugging me!” Dax said with a look of disgust, but he could not fight back the grin on his face. He punched Darryl’s chest and laughed, “Right, I’m alive! Haha! I’m still alive! Hahaha!” Darryl started laughing too. The two men looked at each other without speaking as they kept on laughing. Nobody would understand the bond between them. Its beauty was bey
Yes, Abbess Mother Serendipity was Megan’s Master. Technically, her second Master.Five years ago, Megan joined the Emei sect. As Emei’s newest generation of Senior Sister, Megan initially had the Head of the Sect as her Master.However, in recent years, the Head had completely shut off to concentrate on cultivating and did not have time to train the disciples.Abbess Mother Serendipity had been the one training Megan, teaching her about cultivation. Hence, Megan had a deep respect for her and treated Abbess Mother Serendipity as her own Master.When Darryl heard this, he was floored. He thought he misheard. “Who did you say was your master?” He frowned.Megan had not detected the hint of detest in his voice. “My master is Abbess Mother Serendipity, one of the Elders of the Emei sect,” she whispered, “She was stationed in Donghai City recently…”F*ck!At that, Darryl’s expression darkened. He was fuming with rage.Abbess Mother Serendipity. Those three words were especially agg
What was happening? What had happened?“Hubby, I’m here.” Lily approached Darryl anxiously.“Lily, what happened?” Darryl sighed with relief as he realized she was not injured.Lily was incredibly gorgeous in her skinny black jeans that flaunted her legs. She looked alluring in her high heels. Many men could not help but look at her.Lily hugged Darryl. “Hubby, my mother just called,” she cried, “She said she was in an accident, I rushed here but could not find her. I’m scared.”Samantha was hit by a car? Darryl patted Lily on the back, comforting her. “Don’t panic, it will be fine.” He scanned the surroundings as he hugged Lily, his heart shuddering.F*ck, the injured patients waiting around looked like they were in a car crash. Some were bleeding profusely, some had broken limbs. It was tragic.Lily was almost in tears as she held Darryl’s arms tightly. “Hubby, do you think mother would be fine?”Her father was still overseas. What if something happened to Samantha? “Don’
Darryl smiled but stayed silent. He was used to Samantha’s scoldings.Seeing how he ignored her, Samantha was even angrier. “How dare you laugh so shamelessly? I shouldn’t have let you marry my daughter! Look at the other sons-in-law; they are successful and wealthy. How about you? If you could earn at least ten thousand a month, I would not have had to sell the mansion!”Lily bit her lip. “Mother, stop.” She tried to defend Darryl.Samantha turned to Lily. “Lily, what is with you? Why do you love him so much? I don’t care, you will divorce him tomorrow.”It was because of him that she was in this situation now.Everyone looked at Darryl and shook their heads. They had all heard how Samantha had a useless son-in-law.Lily kept gnawing on her lip. She tried to change the subject. “Mother, how could you trust these financial schemes?”To get five hundred back within seven days with a mere ten thousand investment—it was clearly a scam.Darryl sighed. According to Samantha’s explan
”Do tell, what can you do?” Samantha glared at Darryl despicably.Darryl could not be bothered to argue with Samantha. He told Lily, “It’s fine. Since your mother believes in your ex-boyfriend, let her be.”“What ex-boyfriend?!” Lily was distressed as she said, “Hubby, Ray and I had nothing going on. He pursued me, but we were never together!”Darryl was unhappy. He wanted to see how great this Ray was; that his own mother-in-law still thought of him.Samantha took her phone out and made a call.Samantha smiled widely after the call was picked up shortly after. She softened her tone and said, “Hello, Ray? This is Auntie Samantha. Could you come to the hospital? I have a favor to ask of you. Alright, I will wait for you.”When she hung up, she looked at Eleanor smugly. “Just you wait and see, Ray will arrive shortly. As long as he agrees to help, we will get back our money!”“Are you for real?” The rest started to chime in.“If he really could get our money back, we’ll have to t
“Ray, you’re too kind. How much did this cost?” Samantha was elated.“Auntie Samantha, it’s nothing,” Ray assured as he waved, “it wasn’t even close to a hundred thousand. It suits you!”Samantha was enthralled to hear that. She liked Ray even more now.Ray turned to Lily and said, “I haven’t seen you in a while.”Lily nodded in acknowledgment.“You’ve gotten even more gorgeous since the last I saw you,” Ray said chivalrously. He turned to Darryl with a hint of disgust in his eyes and added, “You must be the infamous Darryl Darby.”In Donghai City, everyone knew that the beautiful Lily Lyndon married a useless loser.Samantha pulled Ray aside as she scoffed, “Ray, don’t bother talking to this loser. Come, let me explain the current situation.” She explained everything to him.“Hubby, what should we do now?” Lily panicked as she whispered to Darryl.She understood Samantha well. If Ray managed to get their money back, Samantha would definitely force Lily to leave Darryl.“Let
In the Metrojade Private Club’s Executive Suite, Felix Blakely and Cyrus Carney were on cloud nine.Two gorgeous, sexy women were giving them a massage.Felix was delighted that his follower Cyrus made hundreds of millions through his new finance corporation. Cyrus wanted to treat Felix to a relaxing massage session.“Felix, now that I’m rich, I should thank you the most!” Cyrus laughed. He beckoned a lady over with a mutton fat jade in her hands.Cyrus raised his eyebrows. “I heard that you are into jades,” he explained, “now that I’ve earned some money, I bought this mutton fat jade for you.”“That’s great!” Felix nodded. His follower knew how to please him. All those years of looking after him did not go to waste.Felix took the jade over when his phone rang.‘F*ck, Darryl Darby?’Felix sat up rigidly as he answered the call. If Brother Darryl called, it must have been an urgent matter.“Felix,” Darryl growled, “I realized you’ve gotten bold. Your follower has even started
Lily felt extremely awkward since Ray used to be headstrong in his pursuit of her courtship. Although she had not spoken to him in ages, he really did her a huge favor this time.“Thank you, Ray,” Lily whispered.“Yes, thank you, Ray!” Samantha chimed in. Glaring at Darryl, she spat, “If I were to rely on my useless son-in-law, I wouldn’t be able to get my money back. Ray, are you free tonight? Join us for dinner!”“That sounds good!” Ray nodded. He was elated as he assured, “Auntie Samantha, if you need any help in the future, just call me!”He then kicked Cyrus. “F*cker, if you dare scam more people out of their money, I’ll make your life a living hell! F*ck off!”Cyrus did not dare to utter a word as he knelt on the floor. After all, he was Brother D’s friend. He nodded furiously, “Yes, yes! I promise I won’t do it again! I’ll leave now!”He was about to stand up and leave when his phone rang. It was Felix. He picked up the phone with his trembling hands as he mumbled, “Felix,
