Parker bit her lips as she looked at Darryl. Then, she said, “I hope that you won’t blame us for the misunderstanding. If you are ever in any trouble in the future, all you have to do is say the word, and the Famed Sword Manor will be there to help you out.”
Parker’s exquisite face was filled with sincerity when she said that.
Darryl was an influential figure. She had almost damaged their relationship due to a misunderstanding, so she must mend it well.
“Sure!”
Darryl nodded as he waved goodbye to Parker.
The Famed Sword Manor had unparalleled skills in weapon forging, so their alliance would only bring him good fortune.
A few minutes later, they were on the hillside a few kilometers from the Famed Sword Manor. Darryl stopped in his tracks, turned his head, and looked at Jackie with a smile. After that, he stared at her meaningfully.
“What are you trying to do?” Jackie was extremely uncomfortable under Darryl’s gaze; she was anxious.
Darryl smiled and said, “If my guess is right, Lucas is one of your men, right? When you brought the Illusion Sound Sect to attack the Famed Sword Manor, he was your spy?”
Swoosh!
Jackie shuddered; she was shocked to hear that.
Darryl was amazing; how did he manage to guess it?
Jackie’s eyes sparkled. She said nonchalantly, “I don’t know what you’re talking about. Lucas and I have only met a few times, and I have only rescued him once. I’m not familiar with him!”
Jackie decided to deny her connection with Lucas.
Darryl chuckled gently. “It’s fine if you don’t want to admit that. But let me warn you—the heiress to the Famed Sword Manor is a friend and an ally. Don’t even think about doing anything to them in the future. If I were to find out that you did anything to harm them, I would not sit idly by and do nothing. That’s all I have to say about that. It’s up to you to heed my warning or not.”
Then, Darryl smiled ambiguously at Jackie before he turned and left.
Woo!
Jackie bit her lips when she saw Darryl left. Her gorgeous face was filled with embarrassment and fury.
‘Darryl Darby—you just wait and see. I will return all the humiliation you have made me suffer today.”
