Inside the box laid a glamorous necklace.

The rubies on the necklace were as big as pigeon eggs. The necklace was dazzling and beautiful under the light. In comparison to this, the diamonds on the dress given by Jimmy were just like sands. Anyone with a pair of eyes would have figured out which gift was more valuable.

However…

“One ruby of this size would have cost a few million? Doesn’t that make this necklace at least twenty million?

“From him? Such a valuable gift from him? Impossible!”

“Exactly, I think it’s a fake.”

The surrounding people were criticizing while Jimmy’s mind went blank. Others might not be able to tell, but Jimmy worked in the jewellery industry, he could tell from just one look. The rubies laying in front of him, with their surface gloss and clarity of texture, were as real as rubies could get, or worse, the quality seemed to be better than all the rubies he had seen in his life.

Was he not a useless son-in-law? How..did he afford such an expensive gift?

    “I felt a sharp pain at first, then I thought it was you, so I...”After recalling, Rebecca felt horrible. At the same time, she looked at the eight-diagram mirror and started suspecting Darryl.Jackson did not speak but hugged her tight with his fists, almost bleeding from his nails stabbing his flesh.

They looked at each other in shock.During the wedding reception in the afternoon, Rebecca saw the maids were tired, so she asked them to take a rest.

Thank you Granny!” William almost burst with excitement, he intentionally glanced at Lily.‘Aren’t you the highest achieving one here? My deal with Platinum Corporation was stolen by you. Yet, now that our enterprise faced danger, wasn’t it me, William Lyndon who saved it?’ William thought to himself.Sometime later, a black limousine pulled over by the entrance of Lyndon Residence. A man walked down the limousine in casual wear with sunglasses on. It was Trent Young, with a few bodyguards following behind him. He was in his twenties, but with his outstanding skills, he made a name of himself in the martial world.

This time, Trent used his martial skill to grab her hands, of course, she did not manage to push him away. Following that, Trent got closer to her, and sniffed loudly in front her, with a dreamy look in his face, “You smell so good.”By then, Granny’s face turned green. Actually, she had already accepted Trent’s proposal to Lily, since it was not something bad anyway. She was about to appoint a date for Trent to bring Lily home. However, Trent misbehaved in front of her and everyone else, in their mansion.“Get your hands off her!” Samantha finally stepped in, and yelled at Trent.

Megan Castello—in her uniform—led a few policemen towards the mansion. Upon entering the main hall, she grimaced at the scene in front of her. “Freeze!” A police officer walked towards the incident. Darryl stopped, slowly stood up, and flexed his wrist. Recognizing Darryl, Megan walked towards him. “Who called the cops?” asked one of the officers. He flipped through his report book while scanning the surroundings. Lily started to come to her senses and quickly offered, “Me…it was me.” “You said someone was beating up your husband? Is that man lying on the floor your husband?” the police officer pointed to the barely recognizable Trent Young on the floor, taking notes and interrogating at the same time. “No, no, he…he’s not my husband.” Lily shook her head, shifted her gaze towards Darryl, and whispered, “He is.” At that, she h

However, the Godly Region can't go a day without a ruler. I have decided to anoint Darryl Darby as the new Heaven Emperor."Daryl is kind and knowledgeable.

He slowly said, "The one that you destroyed previously was only one of my other duplicates. Aurelias, you are still the same after so many years. I am truly disappointed in you.""Haha!" Upon hearing that, Emperor Aurelias was first stunned, then he laughed maniacally. "Stop with the nagging. Even if you favored the Nine Heaven Emperor, he is already dead.

    Woo! Darryl took a deep breath and slowly said, "We're at the Sealed Fiend Mountain, many fiend race warriors have died here. The aura here is extremely hostile.

The formation's powers were instantly weakened. Taking this opportunity, Emperor Aurelias broke free from the formation.What the hell! Upon seeing this scene, Darryl was bewildered.

    Hehe!The so-called Emperor Aurelias was stunned when he heard what Darryl said, but then he smiled and said, "No wonder you are the Royal Master." It is no surprise that Prince Aurin once held you in such high regard. You could immediately tell what was going on. Amazing!"Then, he raised his hands and wiped his face, showing his true identity.It was Magaera.Bloody hell!When Darryl saw Magaera, he was instantly stunned. "How did you come out from the chaotic void?"At that moment, Darryl was genuinely shocked. He correctly guessed that Emperor Aurelias in front of him was an imposter. Many people crossed his mind, but he would never have thought it would be Magaera.What was even more surprising was Magaera's ability to escape the chaotic void.Magaera chuckled lightly. "If you could trap me in the chaotic void so easily, how could I even be a Lord General?"Darryl took a deep breath and gradually calmed down after hearing what Magaera said.The next second, Darryl said,

"If you want to go up against Emperor Aurelias, you have to get help from someone.""Who?" Empress Heidi asked quickly.Magaera had a look of complexity. He said, "Darryl Darby!"What?"Empress Heidi initially thought that Magaera would mention some Immortal's name. She never expected that he would say Darryl's name. She was instantly baffled. She looked at Magaera in shock. "Darryl Darby? You want to get him to help?"Empress Heidi was very hostile toward Darryl when the two p

    Crash!When the surrounding Imperial Sky Palace guards heard the commotion, they rushed over.They were immediately enraged when they saw Magaera in mid-air."It's the Lord General.""What is he doing? Is he challenging His Majesty?"While the palace guards were conversing, a beam of golden light rushed forth from the Imperial Sky Palace, colliding with Magaera in mid-air.A figure draped in a golden dragon robe emitted a powerful aura of command and arrogance. It was Emperor Aurelias."Magaera?" When he saw Magaera, Emperor Aurelias's expression did not change. He said calmly, "I thought you were still stuck in the chaotic void. I didn't think that you would safely return. Not bad."There are now a thousand things to do in the Godly Region. I need just the right man to assist me."Emperor Aurelias thought that Magaera was there to help him.Magaera sneered, not showing him any respect. "Assist?
