The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 51

Read The Ultimate Husband [by Skykissing wolf] Chapter 51 – When she saw Darryl nodded, Giselle turned to Granny Lyndon and said softly, “Well, that will be it.

The old lady felt relieved after Giselle consented to her request.

Things would be easy as long as Giselle agreed to let the matter slip.

However, the very next moment, Giselle said, “But I have one condition!”

“What’s the condition, Miss Lindt?” The old lady responded quickly.

Giselle walked toward Lily and stood beside her. Then, she looked around the room and said, “From today onward, Lily will be in charge of my public image and other related matters. I trust her. No one else from the Lyndon family is to interfere with her work. Do I make myself clear?”

‘What?!’

Everyone was dumbfounded to hear that.

Giselle had given Lily her full authority, and no one else could do anything about it, not even Granny Lyndon.

“Sure, Miss Lindt. We will give our full support.” Even though Granny Lyndon was not satisfied, she had no choice but to endure the bitterness in her heart and nodded with a smile.

After the old lady gave her promise, the Lyndon family’s younger generation could not hide their envy when they looked at Lily.

Despite the temporary decline of Giselle’s public image, Platinum Corporation had worked hard to stage for her comeback She had the endorsement of a rising star, so Lily would definitely make it big.

William Lyndon was so regretful about everything that had happened!

There was a small crack of a smile at the corners of Giselle’s lips when she turned to leave.

Giselle had a perfect figure. The men ogled at her as she walked away. Suddenly, she stopped by Darryl’s side.

“Brother Darryl, I shall take my leave if there is nothing else you needed,” Giselle respectfully said as she bowed to Darryl.

‘what?!’

‘Brother Darryl?!’

‘Did Giselle just call that trash, Brother Darryl?’

Everyone was dumbfounded; their mouths were opened wide!

Even the old lady had almost fallen off her chair!

Daryl decided to ignore the surprised looks from the Lyndon family as he nodded at Giselle. “Yes, go ahead.”

Giselle obeyed Darryl and strode away on her high heels as if she had received an imperial decree.

After Giselle left, Darryl stood up, stretched his arms, and said slowly, “How ridiculous it was that we needed an outsider’s help to get the truth for something that had happened within the family.”

His tone was unabashedly sarcastic.

The old lady’s face changed; she was embarrassed. Everyone else was also speechless, and they wore an indecipherable expression on their faces.

Eventually, Darryl also walked out of the meeting.

As soon as he was outside, Lily’s soft voice echoed from behind him. “Hang on, Darryl.”

Darryl stopped and turned around to look at her with a smile. “What’s up, Honey?”

Lily bit her lip shyly when she heard Darryl addressed her so affectionately. If it were in the past, she would be angry to hear that. However, at that instance, she merely asked him, “Did you know about the truth before you came here? And… what’s your relationship with Giselle?”

‘Hmm…’

Lily’s tone sounded a bit strange, especially in the last sentence. Darryl chuckled and teased her. “Are you jealous?”

Lily’s face turned red almost immediately.

‘Yeah, what’s wrong with me? Why do I care about his relationship with Giselle so much?’

“Giselle and I are classmates. I only learned about what had happened after I called her,” Darryl explained with a smile after he noticed that Lily was shy about it.

Lily finally knew what had happened, but she was still doubtful about one thing. “Well, if she is your classmate, why is she so polite to you?”

“Err…”

Darryl struggled to explain it. Coincidently, his phone rang, which was a nice save for him.

“Oh, the boss must have found out that I sneaked out. I can’t talk any longer; I have to get back to work”

Darryl hurriedly waved goodbye to Lily and then strode outside.

He took out his phone, and the caller ID showed Yvonne Young.

“Darryl, do you have time? I need your help with something.” Yvonne spoke quickly as soon as Darryl picked up her call; she sounded anxious.

“Sure, I’ll come right away.”

Darryl nodded; from her tone of voice, he knew that it must have been something urgent. He was keen to help even though he was not sure what had happened. He had quite a good impression of Yvonne.
