The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 73

Read The Ultimate Husband [by Skykissing wolf] Chapter 73 – Florian suddenly understood what his wife was trying to do. He brought over the eight-diagram mirror swiftly.

“Darling, you’re so smart!” he praised Yumi while handing over the mirror.

Yumi did not bother replying to him. She placed the mirror beside the bed, then walked over to open the window to make it seem like someone had come in from the window.

She was framing Darryl.

During the day, Darryl had gone on and on about his Feng Shui theories and even claimed that Abby fainted because of this mirror. Although Yumi was not convinced, she knew that many people were, including Rebecca

Since Darryl knew so much about Feng Shui Metaphysics, he could also have ways to make Rebecca faint using this mirror. When Rebecca woke the next morning and realized she had been assaulted with the mirror by the bed, she would naturally assume that it was Darryl who did it.

After setting things up, she saw that Florian was still looking at Rebecca.

“Didn’t see enough just now? Go!” Yumi scoffed. Then, she left.

Florian ran after her, panting breathlessly, “This won’t work. What if Rebecca goes to the hospital and finds out-”?

“Do you think everyone is as shameless as you? That they don’t have a reputation to maintain?” she interrupted.

This made sense to Florian. With that, he seemed relieved and left without further questioning.

Darryl, on the other hand, had gotten a weird feeling during the wedding. He could not help but think of his wife, Lily, the whole night.

Instead of going back to the office, he went home. In the past three years of being with the Lyndon family, he knew that everyone looked down on him, including Lily. But he knew, deep down, his wife still had feelings for him.

When he got home, he realized his father and mother-in-law were not home. Lily was sitting on the sofa with her left leg crossed over the right, showing off her s**y curves. However, her face looked like she was in a panic.

Once she saw that Darryl had come home, a glint of joy appeared on her face, but it disappeared quickly. “You’re back?”

“Unum.”

“That’s good. My friend took my car. Go somewhere with me.” Lily stood up, looking anxious.

Darryl did not question her further and left the house with her.

It was not till they were on the road that Darryl found out Lily’s mother, Samantha, was having a reunion dinner with her old friends. Since her friends brought along their children, Samantha called Lily to join the dinner.

“What am I doing there, then?” Darryl asked after learning where they were going.

Lily rolled her eyes. “If you don’t want to go, just drop me there and leave. I won’t make you stay.”

Looking at how spoiled she was, he smiled and kept quiet.

Soon, they arrived at the hotel. When they entered the private dining place, they saw Samantha chatting happily with her classmates. Although these friends maintained their youthful looks quite well, they looked much older compared to Samantha. Their children had joined them too.

When Samantha saw Lily, a smile appeared on her face, but it disappeared instantly once she saw Daryl. She asked Lily to come to make a good impression, but why did this useless person tag along? Samantha was not pleased, yet she could not say tell Darryl to leave in front of everyone.

“Wow! This must be your daughter, Lily. She’s gorgeous!”

“I heard that your daughter made a deal with the Platinum Corporation recently, and she even signed the popular model Giselle Lindt! What a capable and beautiful woman!”

After Lily was introduced to everyone, praises filled the room as everyone looked at Lily with adoration.

Samantha was extremely pleased. Having such a wonderful daughter made an excellent impression, indeed.

Darryl was sitting by the side with a straight face.

Samantha’s other friends started introducing their children and children-in-law. Some were company executives; some were owners of companies, even the least achieving one’s were doctors. Among the chattering, a rich-looking woman pointed at Darryl and asked with a friendly smile, “This is…?”

This woman was Melanie Watson. Back in the day, she was always competing with Samantha. Looking at her high-achieving daughter, she was not pleased. She had pointed Darryl out just to make Samantha look bad.

As expected, when she asked about Darryl, all eyes turned to him simultaneously.
