The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 2017

Tosh was an idiot. Had all those years of guarding the borders made him stupid? He had arrested the real Prince Consort.

At the same time, the Empress and Quincy shuddered as well; they were shocked.

However, the Empress was quite delighted.

Quincy’s expression, on the other hand, was ice cold. She could not hide the embarrassment, rage, and apprehension in her heart.

Hmm?

Tosh was stunned; his mind was filled with questions.

What had happened? Why did the Empress and the officials look at the man like that?

Was he really the Prince Consort?

Tosh’s heart started to beat faster; he was nervous.

“General Tosh.”

Someone amongst the officials chuckled and said, “What is with you? How can you arrest the Prince Consort and say that he is a spy?”

Many of the officials looked and smiled ambiguously at Tosh.

What?

Tosh felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He was utterly baffled. He looked at Darryl in a daze—he was speechless and filled with fear.

The man was their Prince Consort? The hero of the World Universe, the Sect Master of Elysium Gate, Darryl Darby?

“Tosh.”

The Empress snapped back to her senses. She looked at Tosh silently. “What is going on? This man is Darryl Darby. I appointed him as our Prince Consort. Why did you say he was a spy?”

Her voice was not loud, but it was suffocatingly authoritative.

Swoosh!

Tosh sweated profusely. He immediately knelt and said, “Your Majesty, this is a mistake—my careless mistake.”

Then, Tosh immediately turned to Darryl. He looked guilty as he said, “Prince Consort, I must be blind. I’m sorry if I’ve offended you; please don’t take it to heart, and please forgive me this time.”

Tosh was a general, and he had a high status. If it were anybody else, he would not apologize so humbly to them.
