The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 33

Phoebe laughed and said, “Sure, you can afford it!”

She then moved toward Lily’s side and said, “Sister Lily, tell me. Is it because this useless fella knew that Aunt Samantha introduced a boyfriend to you that he decided to secretly track you and wished to compensate for the breakup at the same time?

Did you give him the money to buy the car?”

Darryl almost laughed. Me asking for compensation from her? You would be the only one who would have thought of that.

Lily could not stand it anymore, so she pulled Phoebe’s hand slightly and said, “Stop saying that! He didn’t ask money from me.”

Phoebe immediately spoke after Lily, “Why can’t I speak? Even if he didn’t ask any money from you, I still feel that it’s unfair to you!”

With a face full of righteousness she carried on, looking down upon Darryl, “Hey! The Darby, you really have your way. Prior to this, you wasted three years of Lily’s wonderful life, and now after the break up, you still cling onto her and refuse to let go. Are you still a man or what?”

Darryl ignored her, smiled and looked at Charles. “At the beginning, I planned to buy the most expensive car from this place. However, an Audi car is not top notch, but just right for a low-profile person like me. However, the service here sucks. It is so disappointing, so I have decided not to buy the car anymore.”

“Haha, you are one of a kind.” Charles laughed widely as if he just heard the biggest joke, and said while pointing at Darryl, “Aunt Samantha told me that you are good at nothing. I think she underestimated you. At least your ability to brag is top notch.

While speaking, Charles started to tease him, “Buddy, to be honest, if I were you, I will not shame Lily here. I would’ve left long ago.”

Phoebe laughed with her face full of disgust.

Then, Charles looked at the watch on his wrist. “I do not have time for nonsense. You need to leave immediately. Lilybud and I still have important matters to discuss.”

Darryl gave a cold smile to Charles and said, “You don’t have to chase me away. I will leave. It’s just that I worry you might regret it after I do so.”

In his briefcase, was the contract between Platinum Corporation and Audi Corporation.

This Charles here did not have a clue who he was speaking to.

“I’ll regret it?” Charles lost his smile. “You definitely have a problem with your brain. If I were to regret, my whole family, including my parents and sisters, will address you as Father, okay? Leave. Please leave immediately!”

“If you say so.” Darryl smiled and turned to walk quickly toward the exit.

Charles spoke to impress Lily, “Lilybud, the President of Platinum Corporation will be here very soon. Let’s wait in the office.” Charles grinned as he watched Darryl leave.

Phoebe could not wait and asked, “Oh my, the President of Platinum Corporation. Is it the Platinum Corporation who have many big stars under them?”

Judging by Charles’ nod, Phoebe added, “Sister Lily, you have really met the right person. Look how wide Charles' network is. He even knows the President of Platinum Corporation.

Lily smiled, but did not say a word.

Her mind was full of Darryl at that moment.

Charles felt proud seeing Phoebe’s reaction and felt great satisfaction. He was also confident that by helping Lily to chase Darryl away, he would impress her.

He was wrong.

Lily said while feeling disturbed, “I am sorry. I just remembered that I needed to do something. I will not be meeting the President of Platinum Corporation with you. Let’s do so next time.”

She left the main hall without waiting for a response from Charles or Phoebe.

“Lilybud?” Charles was stunned, looking at Lily leaving without hesitation.

Outside of Audi 4S centre.

“Darryl, wait up…”

Darryl heard Lily calling for him right after he stepped out from the showroom.

Darryl stopped, turned and looked at her, looking indifferent, “Don’t you and that Manager Luke have something to do? Why did you come out?”

Even though he knew that Lily was meeting Charles due to being pressured by Samantha, his heart still did not feel good.

Lily said while biting her lips, “It’s not what you think.” After some hesitation she said, “I never planned to meet this Charles. It’s just that he told me that he would introduce the President of the Platinum Corporation to me, hence I came.”

Hearing that, Darryl smiled with relief.

Lily curiously asked, sounding concerned, “Where have you been for the past few days?”

Darryl thought, and replied indifferently, “Nowhere. It’s just that I found a job with meals and accommodation provided.”

Lily had a tingling sensation in her heart and asked immediately, “What kind of job?”
