Chapter 85
SLAP! SLAP! SLAP! Darryl’s slaps made everyone’s heart skip a beat. The entire Lyndon mansion was dead silent. At last, two police cars arrived. 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, Darryl is an outlier. Indeed, Darryl is an exception. He actually possesses such a thing as theGodly pill and managed to become Level Two Master in such a short time. At that thought, Megan softened her tone, “So what would it take to get that Godly pill?” Even in her uniform, Megan looks stunning. Darryl chuckled, “Alright, how about you say something nice about me. Compliment me, but it has to be sincere. If it pleases me, I’ll give you the Godly pill.” Megan shuddered. This is extremely inappropriate! It is not in her character to bow down to please others. She slowed down her car, biting her lip in deep thought. After a while, she gave in, “Darryl, you…you’re the most charming man I’ve ever met, please, could you give me another Godly pill?” Darryl laughed. He had to admit: to have a strong, beautiful woman like Megan kowtow to him—any man would not be able to resist her requests, even him. “Alright, alright, I’ll give you one,” Darryl agreed pleasingly. He h

“Come, Darryl, Sit here.” Megan smiled. She pulled a chair next to her while ignoring the judgemental glares from the others. Darryl was about to leave, but he was touched by Megan’s sincerity. He sat down calmly. “Meg love, why are you friends with him?” Kent came to his senses—he asked confusedly. Megan sighed gently, “Kent, can you not judge a book by it’s cover? In my eyes, everyone is the same. So what if Darryl Darby is living with his in-laws? Does that mean I can’t be friends with him?” explained Megan patiently. Kent was struck dumb. Megan shook her head and took the Godly pill from her bag. “Kent, weren’t you stuck at Level Five Master for some time now? This pill can help you. Darryl gave it to me.” “Whoa!” They were astounded by Megan’s remarks. A few of these bunch of rich brats are Cultivators as well, though only beginners as they just started practicing cultivation. After all, their family is willing to spend the money to let them become Cultivators. They a

“Oh wow, working for someone. Haha!” Kent nodded exaggeratedly. The waiter started serving. Due to Megan’s outrage, Kent was less sharp-tongue. However, he still tried to find various topics to deliberately embarrass Darryl, with back-up from the other rich brats as they chime in cooperatively. Megan could take it no longer, she excused herself to the washroom. The minute she left, Kent sprung onto Darryl. “Dude, if I were you, I would get out of here as soon as possible. What good will come of you staying here? Do you even know what type of place this is? Oriental Pearl is the finest hotel in Donghai City. Who are you to eat here?” The rest slammed the table in agreement. Their girlfriends smiled mockingly at Darryl. The others interjected, “Yeah if it weren’t for our sis-in-law, do you think we’d really be your friends?” “F*ck off, us letting you overstay your welcome in the dining room is already a huge courtesy to you.” “You unworthy live-in son-in-law, who do you thi

Kent Hough stood up straight, thinking he looked handsome, he said, “President Woodall, I’m glad to meet y-” Kent froze. Wayne did not even look at him but walked straight toward Darryl. “Mr. Darby, you called, what can I help you with?” What? Mr. Darby? Wayne Woodall actually acknowledged this live-in son-in-law with an honorific? Everyone’s jaw dropped, they were all bewildered. How is it possible that a loser like Darryl would be of acquaintance with a person like Wayne Woodall? Just when everyone is still recoiling from shock, Darryl smiled gently, nodded towards Wayne. “Nothing special, just wanted to see you,” said Darryl. “Mr. Darby, you’re too kind!” Wayne laughed politely. He scanned the room and suddenly seemed to understand the situation. He added, “Mr. Darby, you should’ve told me beforehand that you’ll be coming. I would’ve prepared for you.” At that, Wayne waved towards the waiter, “Tell your manager to waive all expenses in this box.” What? All free? Ken
Chapter 90
Darryl laughed lightly. “It’s fine, I had nothing to do there anyway, plus I wasn’t hungry.” Megan was apologetic. “I’m so sorry. Kent and the others, they are just like that. Please don’t mind them.” Darryl shrugged, “It’s fine, I’ve met many of his types.” He glanced at Megan, and hesitated. “But, do you think you and Kent Hough are a match?” It was none of his business, Darryl should not have brought it up, but he does not know what overcame him. Megan did not reply, but she seemed stiff and awkward. The truth is, Megan does not dislike Kent, but she has no feelings for him either. It is mainly due to the fact that they both have similar family social standings, they have known each other for a long time, and on top of that, both of their families heavily approve of them being together, hence why she reluctantly agreed to be with Kent. However, she has a clear stance—no sex before marriage, hold hands at most. Megan pivoted to another topic, and said, “Hey let’s go. I’ll s
Chapter 91
Megan tried not to panic. She glared at the young man in the front seat and asked, “Who are you? Where are you bringing us to?” This young man—clearly the leader—looked evil. He turned around, and replied with a devilish smile, “Officer Castello, you arrested so many of my men, of course, I had to do something.” “You…you’re from the Grandmaster Heaven Cult?” Megan exclaimed. It was as if she suddenly understood something. “Gr…Grandmaster Heaven?” Kent was flabbergasted. He started to panic. Darryl on the other hand frowned, ‘Grandmaster Heaven Cult? What powers do they have and why have I not heard of them before?’ he thought. “As expected of Donghai City’s Criminal Investigation Team Leader, you got it right away. Not bad, not bad at all,” the leader smiled. “I won’t beat around the bush. My name is Skyler Burr, I am the Head of the Donghai City Branch. Officer Castello, in just a month you’ve arrested tens of my men. It’s payback time.” Megan bit her lip. Everyone knows t
Chapter 92
At Kent’s response, Megan has no words. She shook her head silently. Skyler laughed mischievously, “Officer Castello, you’ve got to be kidding me! I took such a huge effort to kidnap you three, why should I let them go at your command?” He looked at Kent and said, “I know you, you’re one of Donghai City’s rich brat, Kent Hough isn’t it?” Kent nodded his head frantically, trying to appease Skyler, he offered, “Yes, I am! If you let me go, I’ll give you money! Just name your price! I’ll give it all to you!” Skyler laughed, “Afraid of death, are you? I heard you and Officer Castello got engaged. Am I right? As a man, don’t you want to save your fiancée?” Kent opened his mouth, but no words came out. He swallowed hard. Must be still in shock. Skyler ignored him and turned to Darryl, “To be able to have a meal with Young Master Kent, you must be rich too.” Darryl could not understand what Skyler meant by that, he frowned. Skyler continued with a twisted smile, “Alright, you tw
