The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 138

Read The Ultimate Husband [by Skykissing wolf] Chapter 138 – Megan glared at him, “I just don’t want my mood spoilt. If you continue to behave like this, please leave me alone and go on the outing on your own.”

“Alright, fine. I’ll listen to you,” replied Kent immediately with a smile.

Despite him saying that his face was full of anger when he looked towards Darryl.

’How dare a live-in son-in-law join our outing? I’ll make you embarrass yourself!’ Kent thought.

“Hello everyone, thank you for your patience.” Edward Hough stepped forward and spoke into the microphone.

Edward was Kent’s father, the leader of the Hough family, and also the outing’s organizer.

He walked toward the crowd, looked around, cleared his throat, and said, “Everyone here is the younger generation of your family. I believe all of you know about our outing’s rules, so I’ll not repeat them again. Just one thing I’d like to remind everyone, please take care of your own safety.

Again, please take care of your own safety!”

Edward added, “We are now at Dragon Raising Lake.

It’s a bay, near the sea with plenty of fishes. We’ve prepared many fishing rods for all of you. Our dinner will depend on what you’ll fish!”

Everyone broke into laughter after hearing Edward’ swords.

Everyone there was from the upper-class society, hence fishing would not be a problem for them. The freshly caught fishes would certainly make for a delicious barbeque meal later.

Every one happily picked up their fishing rods and headed towards the seashore.

Beautiful ladies laid down and were getting ready for a sunbath.

Not forgetting one of the outing’s aims was to make new friends, hence some of them were already exchanging name cards with red wine glasses at hand.

Of course, there were some unique ones who would just not stop leasing about Darryl. People like William, Kent, and a few others.

No matter where they went, they would find an excuse to ridicule Darryl.

Darryl acted calmly as though not bothered by them, but was burning furiously deep in his heart.

What was wrong with these people?

Especially Kent, he was just as terrible as his name!

If he knew more about Kent, he would not have promised Megan to save Kent at the Grandmaster Heaven Cult.

The crowd who had been fishing by the beach was getting tired. How many fishes do they need to serve a few hundred people? All those sons from rich families gave up not too long after fishing and headed to rest at the huts nearby. They would rather be hungry later.

Looking around, the scenery was really beautiful as there was a small island not far away.

The weather was scorching hot while the water was crystal clear. Many of the men had an urge to take a dip in the water.

Someone soon suggested. “It’s so hot here, why don ‘t we go for a swim?”

Everyone was interested in hearing that. At the same time, a few men started looking at Megan and the remaining ladies in excitement.

They were going for a dip in the water with the goddess soon, how exciting?

Lily, Megan, and the few other ladies were also drenched in sweats. They were also interested in hearing the suggestion but hesitated.

They were ladies and with so many people watching them, it would be rather awkward. Most importantly, they did not bring along their swimsuits for the trip.

Just at that moment, Kent laughed. “It’s not fun just swimming! Let’s have a race! ”

William was curious. “What kind of race?”

“Of course, it’ll be a competition between families. Each family is to be represented by a pair of male and female,” said Kent while pointing at the island in the middle of the lake. “The first family who reaches the island will be the winner.”

Great! All of them were excited to listen to his idea.

Zayler stepped forward and added, “We should have a bet since this is a race!”

Kent nodded. “Of course there shall be bets. Let’s lay down the rules clearly. Only the first-place winner will get the reward. All the other losing families shall each pay the winner a billion bucks.

What? One billion bucks?

Did they have any concept on the value of one billion bucks? Although that was the gathering activities for the rich, some of them could not afford one billion bucks. It would not make sense to wager their entire fortune just for a bet.

A few smaller families gave a sigh! They were interested to participate, but their financial positions would not allow them to.

Kent laughed. He was planning in his heart to pressure the Lyndon family’s participation. If the Lyndon family refused, he would use that opportunity to humiliate them in front of the masses.

He learned swimming when he was little and was confident that he would win the race! If the Lyndon family were to participate, they would definitely lose both the race and one billion bucks. Losing one billion bucks would bring great losses to the Lyndon family.

He would then let the Lyndon family appeal for an IOU, but Lily and Darryl would need to kneel and beg in front of him.
