The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 28

Two policemen were blocking Darryl from entering the house. Darryl turned his head back and shouted, “Captain Castello, I am Lily’s husband and I am obligated to swap as her hostage. Please let me in!”

This…

After all, Megan could not intervene as Darryl had volunteered.

“Captain, did you hear him?” Granny quickly stood up and spoke. “Darryl volunteered himself. Quickly, let him swap as a hostage!”

Megan felt helpless, but even so, she nodded her head at Darryl.

“Let them go,” said Darryl coldly.

In the room, Ashton clenched his fists tightly seeing Darryl walking in. He untied the ropes on Samantha and Lily to let them go, and immediately grabbed and held on to Darryl!

“Both of you, leave now,” ordered Darryl as he looked at Lily.

Lily felt tears in her eyes. This man was willing to be a hostage in place of her!

“Let’s go quickly!” Samantha came to her senses. She pulled Lily and left the room without turning back.

Outside the house, the police and the Lyndon clan surrounded Lily and Samantha as soon as they saw them exiting. Wentworth burst out in tears.

“Lilybud, Sam, are you alright?” His hands shook as he held his wife and daughter.

He had always been dealing with business affairs and had never experienced any situation like that before. Just a moment ago, he was really frightened. However, he felt at ease seeing his wife and daughter were safe now.

“Dad, I’m alright. But Darryl, he…” Lily said as she turned to look at the house. Presently, Ashton was holding Darryl hostage with a sharp dagger resting on his neck.

However, there was not the slightest expression of fear on his face. On the contrary, he was looking at Lily with a smile!

“Daughter, why do you care about him?!” asked Samantha angrily. “His life and death do not relate to us! He is just a live-in son-in-law, three years of marriage and you both never even held hands. Why are you worried about his safety?”

“Indeed. Why do you have to make us worried!” Grandmother Lyndon said as she walked over. “Quickly, let us return home.”
