“This…” At that time, the Empress, who was sitting at the side, was full of doubts. She could not help but ask, “This Luca, he has been following behind Parker closely the whole time. That’s obviously cheating.”
The New World Empress was beautiful, elegant, and kind. She was a principled person, and she was really dissatisfied when she saw Darryl walk out together with Parker.
As the martial art marriage tournament was not only related to the ethics of the royal family, it was also critically related to the happiness of her daughter. The Empress would not allow anyone to take advantage by playing smart.
Noticing that the Empress was unhappy, Florian rushed over to the New World Emperor without thinking. He said politely, “Your Majesty, this Luca, walked out of the formation by following behind Parker. Does that count as cheating?”
When he said that, the entire place went silent. Everyone’s gaze was focused on the New World Emperor.
The atmosphere turned tense, too. From what had happened, the New World Emperor could forfeit Darryl’s right to continue competing with his order.
‘Sh*t…’ Darryl started to become worried. ‘The Emperor wouldn’t rule me out by saying that I was cheating, right?’
However, the New World Emperor did not speak and instead kept silent.
‘It is really suspicious that Luca was cheating, but…’
Seeing what was happening, Parker became worried. She stepped forward and bowed to the New World Emperor, holding her fists together. “Your Majesty! Luca and I coincidentally took the same path. We both used the same technique to break the formation. How can that be counted as cheating? Please consider this, Your Majesty.”
As she said that, Parker was really worried. She was worried that Darryl would be disqualified from the competition. No matter what, he was the one who helped her secretly get through the semi-finals successfully. She was the one taking advantage of him.
At that moment, Darryl turned and looked at Parker, feeling a surge of warmth in his heart.
He did not expect Parker would defend him at the most critical moment. His relationship with her started because he had discovered her secret; they were not even friends.
