The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 2367

Ambrose looked sad; he bowed his head in shame and said, “Watson and Donoghue had plotted that together. Watson gave the treasure chest to Donoghue, and Donoghue had left very quickly.”

‘What?’

Heather trembled; she was utterly stunned.

A few seconds later, Heather cried, “That is the treasure my people have

guarded for thousands of years. And now it’s missing. How can I explain it to my father, and how can I explain it to the people…”

Heather felt angry and sad when she said that. Her tears could not stop. Ambrose was in distress; he held Heather in his arms and comforted her.

“Don’t worry, I will bring the treasure back, and I will never let Donoghue use it for his evil plans.”

His tone was firm and unquestionable.

Heather was moved to hear that assurance. She leaned against Ambrose’s arms and said, “Thank you, Brother Ambrose.”

For a while, the two of them held each other quietly in an embrace. The atmosphere changed a little.

Pfft!

Finally, Eira chuckled. “You guys continued with your chat; I’m heading out.”

Eira was pleased to see his brother and Heather progressed so fast in their relationship. As a younger sister, she would give them space.

Heather’s delicate face blushed when she realized that she was holding Ambrose so tightly. She felt ashamed; she wanted to find a place to hide.

Ambrose also blushed. He was embarrassed, and he said, “Sister, stop making fun of us.”

He kept his gaze on Heather.

Heather looked gorgeous when he saw her at such a close distance. She was magnificent.

Heather felt even more embarrassed.

…

Meanwhile, at the Raksasa camp at the foot of the Chaotic Mountain Range…

Darryl’s appearance had shocked the Raksasa Army, especially his terrifying strength. Finally, under Alaric’s command, the Raksasa Army managed to retreat and set up their camp more than ten kilometers away.

The Raksasa camp was enormous; the tents were densely packed. There were more than ten thousand tents altogether, and from a distance, the army looked grand. The Raksasa Army had a million soldiers; they had lost less than ten percent of their strength in the fierce battle with the nine continents.

Alaric was very cautious; he sent many soldiers to patrol the camp area to guard against any sudden attack from their opponent. The entire campsite was heavily guarded, with one sentry post at every few steps.

The Raksasa Tribe had lived in the wilderness for generations, they had an unrestrained temperament, and they were carefree. They were not usually that cautious. However, Alaric had been influenced by Debra and Shentel; that was why he adopted the defensive measures commonly used by the Nine Mainland.
