The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 1362

“Why would we not see each other again?” Darryl smiled and comforted her. “You’re the Princess. Your father loves you so much—you can go wherever you want.”

When he said that, Darryl sized Yvette up. His face was full of tenderness, yet it showed his heartache, too.

He had not seen her for almost a month, and Yvette seemed to have gotten a little haggard.

“I—” Yvette’s face looked bitter. She shook her head. “I have lost my freedom. Do you know that my dad wants to hold a martial art tournament and the winner will be my future husband? I was also grounded at the palace…”

Then, tears fell from her face.

Ever since Yvette’s return from North Moana, she had been on house arrest for nearly a month.

Yvette had always been a free-spirited person. The house arrest for the past month had nearly driven her crazy. That morning, while the guards changed their shifts, she dressed up as a man and sneaked out of the palace.

She was barely out of Royal City when she bumped into Darryl on the streets.

‘What? A martial arts tournament?’ Darryl felt his mind buzzed, and his mind blanked when he heard that.

‘No wonder she dressed up as a man and left the palace by herself.

Darryl looked at Yvette. “Didn't you tell your father that we are in love?”

Darryl felt a little awkward when he said that. It was a stupid question. He had caused havoc in the Royal City and almost killed the New World Emperor. How could he have agreed for his daughter to be with the enemy?

“Who’s in love with you?” Yvette blushed and pouted subconsciously. However, when she said that, she felt like she wanted to laugh. She was in love with Darryl, indeed.

Yvette bit her lips. “Father knew that I like you, but he did not want me to be with you. That was why he wanted to hold the martial arts tournament.”

Then, Yvette lowered her head and looked at Darryl lovingly. “Darryl, I do not want a tournament to determine who I'll marry. I want to be with you for the rest of my life. Will you take me away with you?”

When she said that, Yvette’s eyes were full of hope. It was enthralling.

“Very well!” Darryl did not even give it a thought before he nodded.
