The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 79

Read The Ultimate Husband [by Skykissing wolf] Chapter 79 – “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. In order to protect her reputation, they would not tell the public about this. The best thing to do was to investigate on their own.

However, their conversation was overheard by the two maids outside the bedroom. 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. Therefore, when Rebecca was assaulted, the maids were resting and did not know what happened, up till when Jackson roared in anger that they were woken up.

By then, both of them went back to their room, after overhearing what they were not meant to hear.

On the next day, the rumor spread around the Darby family. Florian, who was guilty, rushed to their mansion with Yumi once they heard the news. On the surface, it seemed as if they were genuinely concerned, but in fact, they were just trying to find out how much they knew.

“Jackson, I heard something happened here last night. What really happened?” Once Florian entered the living room, he went straight to the point; Yumi, on the other hand, went to the bedroom to comfort Rebecca unctuously.

Jackson did not want to talk about it, but since the truth was already out, he told Florian the details in anguish.

“Darryl Darby! How could he do such a thing!” After listening to Jackson, Florian pretended to be mad at Darryl, further framing him.

Though, Jackson tried to help Darryl, “Brother, Darryl is just suspicious, it’s not necessarily him.”

“Jackson, why’re you depending on him up till now?” Florian said somberly.

At the same time, Yumi came out from the bedroom, “Now that we have evidence, who else could it be? Only Darryl knows so much about the eight-diagram mirror. According to my guess, first he must’ve returned to steal this mirror, then he saw Rebecca drunk and had the thought…” By then,

Yumi’s face was filled with anger and disgust, she continued, “And I heard that this trash married into the Lydon family for three years but had never laid a finger on his wife. After holding back for so long, surely when he saw a vulnerable woman…”

“Don’t worry, Jackson, I’ll help you investigate this,” Florian added on

Yumi nodded in agreement, “Exactly, we won’t let this b*****d get away with it.”

Jackson looked terrible. Before that, he still had a glint of hope that it was not Darryl, since he had the closest relationship with him. But… there was evidence, and with what Florian and Yumi said, he was finally convinced. He did not speak, but nodded.

Watching that Jackson was convinced, both Florian and Yumi had to fight back their smile of satisfaction.

On the next day. The chairman’s office at Platinum Corporation.

Darryl held the spiritual herb in his hand. Abby said that one would become a cultivator upon eating this herb. Darryl never would have thought that after saving Abby she would repay him with such gratitude. This spiritual herb must at least cost a fortune in the market.

Darryl thought as he ate the herb. Quickly, he felt a rush of heat condensing in his body, and slowly spread through his body. The feeling was beyond description.

Half an hour later, Darryl let out a long sigh, his face filled with joy. He was now officially a cultivator. He never would have thought that because he ate the spiritual pill given by Samson earlier, his body was in a stronger state than others. So he was able to take in all the spiritual Qi of the herb, making him a Level Two Master right away. Normally, when an ordinary man becomes a cultivator, they start off with Level One, but he actually managed to skip a level!

Darryl left the corporation in an uplifting mood, heading toward the Lyndon mansion. After attending his brother’s wedding, he felt the happiness of the newlywed, which strangely made him miss Lily.

However, as of this moment, an emergency family meeting was taking place at the mansion. Due to the funding problem earlier, 51% of Lyndon family’s shares were sold to Paul James from Dragon Tech. Although now that the funding problems were resolved, Lyndon family only owned of their own company shares, in which the dividends were 49%.

Therefore, Granny Lyndon gathered the people to hold a meeting at Lyndon Residence.

“During this time, more than half of our company’s profits were going directly into Dragon Tech’s pocket. This can’t go on, do any of you have any suggestions?”
