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,
“Brother D, I am so sorry! I did not know she was your mother-in-law! If I knew, I would not have dared!” Cyrus howled, his forehead bleeding from slamming onto the floor as he bowed.In an instant, everyone was floored! What was happening? The ‘Brother D’ that Cyrus mentioned turned out to be the live-in son-in-law? Samantha was stunned as well, barely able to stand. She looked at Darryl in admiration. Cyrus returned their money because he feared Darryl!“Brother D, please forgive me. You must forgive me!” Cyrus was in tears. He hugged Darryl’s leg and begged, “If you’re unhappy, I will give them another thirty million as an apology! Please forgive me…”The crowd gasped in surprise! They were delighted.Darryl waved his hand in dismissal. He replied, “It’s fine. Go and tell Felix the next time he or any of his followers decide to do anything illegal, they’d better watch out.”“Yes, yes, thank you, Brother D!” Cyrus bowed two more times before he ran off.The crowd was in a
Samantha was still dressed in the same clothes she wore during the day. Darryl gulped. He could not help but give Samantha another look or two. She maintained her figure and youthfulness. If she stood next to Lily, they looked more like sisters rather than a mother-daughter duo.Samantha hushed Darryl with a finger to her lips. “Don’t turn on the lights. Lily is asleep, I don’t want to wake her up.”What? Keep the lights off? Why was she so mysterious?In another mansion by the Donghai City seaside, an old man was sitting on a couch. It was Zion Featherstone, Evelyn’s grandfather. He previously consumed an ineffective Godly pill and fainted.“Grandpa, help me take a look—is this Yang pill genuine?” Evelyn impatiently rushed into the living room and handed the pill to her grandfather.Zion took the pill. He scrutinized it and nodded. “This is the real thing.”He read about the Yang pill in an old manual. The manual described the pill exactly as what he saw. At that, Evelyn let out
They were people of high social status, including Brandon Guy, Abby Guy, Abbess Mother Serendipity, and each family’s elders.“Dad…”Drake Darby knelt by the bed, sobbing. He held Old Master Darby’s hand. He choked, “Dad, wake up…”Drake was hit hard by his father’s passing. The expressions of everyone around him were equally somber.Drake turned to Florian behind him and asked, “What happened? Wasn’t he still in good condition earlier when we left the hospital? Why did he pass away suddenly?”All eyes were on Florian Darby.He panicked and had a guilty conscience. He struggled to find the words to say as he stuttered, “I...I don’t know. He just...” Yumi stood up and shrieked in anguish. “It was Darryl! He was the one that killed our grandfather! When you left, Old Master Darby clutched his heart, wheezing while muttering how much of a disappointment Darryl was! How Darryl was greedy, and that he committed incest!”Yumi acted out the scene as if it happened. She clutched her h
The praises meant nothing to Abbess Mother Serendipity. She grew up in the Emei sect and was brought up with a strong sense of justice ingrained in her. Evil had no place in her life.The more she thought, the more furious she became. She looked at Drake and spat, “The Darbys are a legendary family. Who knew that such a great family could produce such a failure like Darryl. Don’t worry, I won’t let Darryl continue his evil ways. I will eliminate this pest.”Drake looked at Abbess Mother Serendipity gratefully. He nodded fiercely.RING! RING! At the same time, a phone rang. One of the Emei followers approached Abbess Mother Serendipity and respectfully said, “Master, it’s from Sister Megan.”“Hello, Megan,” said the Abbess gently.Among all the followers, Abbess Mother Serendipity loved Megan the most. She had even considered Megan to be her successor in the future.Megan was slightly agitated as she asked, “Master, I know that you’ve been stuck as a Level Five Martial Marquis a
Abbess Mother Serendipity took a deep breath before she snapped, “I do not need to explain any further. Anyway, you are not to see him again. Understood?”What? Committed incest? Killed his grandfather?Megan was confused. After a while, she said carefully, “Master, you must have been mistaken. Darryl is not this sort of person. He helps others and is courageous—he is a good man.”Darryl could not have done such things. Impossible! “The foul things he has done are an open secret in the Darbys. How could I have been mistaken?” She frowned. “I do not care. If you go against my orders, I’m no master of yours. Megan, tell me the truth. Do you have feelings for Darryl?” Megan rarely had a good opinion of any person, but she pleaded on Darryl’s behalf.Megan blushed. She bit her lip and stuttered, “Master… I… No. I don’t have feelings for him. I’m engaged to Kent Hough! How could I have feelings for another man?”“That’s a relief to hear.” Abbess Mother Serendipity let out a sigh. She
Samantha looked at Darryl despicably—he was still a loser after all! Here, she had thought that he improved. The only reason Cyrus returned their money was because of Dax. Darryl smiled. He did not bother to give Samantha an explanation. He was used to her looking down on him. Samantha turned around and left the room after she discovered the so-called truth.Suddenly, she tripped over in her high heels. She was about to fall when Darryl quickly caught her by the waist.‘She smells good,’ Darryl thought. “Be careful,” he laughed.“Let go of me, you good-for-nothing!” Samantha was embarrassed and offended. Letting this loser touch her was a huge insult.Darryl let her go as he thought, ‘I prevented you from falling! No good deed goes unpunished.’Samantha glared at him once more and said, “Good-for-nothing! Why did my daughter marry you? You do nothing the whole day!”Darryl sighed when she left and went back to bed.It was Monday the next day at the Hexad School. Everyone loo
Xavier ignored her. He grabbed Lily’s hand and smirked. “Lily, don’t be shy. I’m just looking after my students, that's all. Take it.”He shoved the bag to her. Lily panicked as her face flushed and mumbled, “Mister Xavier, please let go of me. Don’t…”Darryl’s eyes flared. It was bad enough he had to go through jabs and taunts this morning, now this pervert b*stard was harassing his wife. He had enough!“Get your f*cking hands off her!” He screamed, shoving Xavier aside.Xavier almost lost his balance as he shouted back, “It’s you again! I have not paid you back the last time!”In the last Physical Education class, Xavier got jealous that Lily, Yvonne, and Circe spoke to Darryl. He threw the basketball at him, yet Darryl asked him to apologize. If it were not for Miss Katherine that stopped them in time, he would have beaten Darryl up.Xavier clenched his fist, a powerful aura emitting from his body. He stared and Darryl and snarled, “Are you looking for death? I did not beat yo
