The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 176

Read The Ultimate Husband [by Skykissing wolf] Chapter 176 – Lily also heard a young woman’s voice coming from the ward. Her voice was sweet.

’Why is there another woman in there? Who is she to Darryl?’ with the thought ringing in her head, Lily seemed upset.

Through the window, one could see Daniel Darby with bandages all over his body and visible bloodstains on it. Pipes connected his body to a machine, and beside the bed were a few bags of blood. It seemed horrible. He was lucky to have survived.

Yesterday, Daniel thought he was d***g. No matter how strong the body was, it was impossible to come out alive after experiencing such cruel torture! Luna sat, smiling beside the bed. When he was admitted to the hospital, Daniel was covered in blood, and his chances of living were slim. Luckily, Darryl had a good relationship with Director Shelly Sullivan. If it were not for Shelly, his father might have died.

Today, Shelly had finished her shift, and she did not have her white coat on. She wore a dress as she told Daniel jokes beside his bed. She was usually a serious person, especially after becoming the director of the hospital. However, when she saw Darryl’s parents, she just wanted to make them happy and tell them jokes.

“Uncle Daniel, when I was back in high school during my first Math class, the teacher introduced himself as Stan Dupp,” she recalled smiling, “I don’ t know what I was thinking, but I just said out loud, I wonder why we’re all sitting when he’s standing up? The teacher’s face turned green and ordered me to stand for the rest of the day!”

“Hahahaha!” Daniel laughed.

Laughter filled the ward. Daniel was feeling much better and liked having Shelly around. This young lady was appointed as the director at such a young age. She was also talented, has a good personality, and makes the old couple very happy.

At this moment, the door opened as Lily and Samantha stomped in their heels. They had been listening from outside the ward for a while now, and Lily could not hold it any longer. It was the cheerful and joyous atmosphere inside the ward, which made her feel sick and uneasy.

“Who’s this woman?” Lily asked, looking at Shelly. Instantly, the four people inside the ward fell silent. “Lily, you’re here!” Darryl was the first to react. He stood up and accepted the fruit basket from her hand. He then hastily introduced her, “Dad, Mom. This is your daughter-in-law, Lily Lyndon. Beside her is my mother-in-law, Samantha.”

Although Darryl saw that they did not appear happy, he was glad that they came to visit.

Lily, with a straight face, said softly, “Dad, Mom.” As she spoke, her gaze fell on Shelly with suspicion.

“Lily, this is the hospital director, Shelly Sullivan,” Darryl smiled as he introduced her.

“Director Sullivan?” Samantha interrogated as she walked over. “Darryl, I didn’t know you know a director from the hospital? Who is she to you? You two seem rather close?”

“Auntie, please don’t take it wrong. I’m just a friend of Brother Darryl,” Shelly explained.

It was obvious that Samantha had taken it wrongly. They were just friends.

“Tsk tsk, you even call him a ’brother’ eh. You call this ’just friends’? I’m disgusted by how you address him,” Samantha mocked before turning to Darryl. “Darryl, you’re not doing bad, eh, flirting with other women behind Lily’s back. Aren’t you ashamed? Don’t you feel sorry for Lily?”

Shelly was blushing with embarrassment and almost furious.

‘Why did Samantha speak with such an insulting tone?’ Shelly thought

Daniel tried to make the situation less awkward and tried to laugh it off, “Oh Samantha, don’t get angry. This isn’t what you think it is. This lady here is just a friend of my son’s. I’m severely injured, and she was the one who helped me. She’s a nice lady.”

“Tsk tsk, you’re talking on behalf of her, eh? It seems like this cheap lady gets along with your family, eh? Since you like her so much, why don’t you ask your son to be with her so that I can get Lily a better husband,” Samantha mocked.

Since Samantha had never liked Darryl, she thought this was the best time to lay it all out.

“You…” Daniel was unable to refute, his lips turning purple from anger.
