The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 3171

Chapter 3171

“You lost! ” Darryl said, smiling at Holden as he stood there with his hands behind his back.

Holden gritted his teeth and glared at Darryl. He was unhappy about the loss, but he had no way to deny it.

At this moment, Ivy walked over and yelled at Holden, “This man doesn’t even have a weapon and you can’t beat him? What happened to you just now? Why didn’t you move? You just stood there and let him kick you.”

She thought Holden would win; she was not expecting such an embarrassing loss.

“Miss Ivy, I...I don’t know what happened. I just couldn’t move,” Holden said, wanting to cry, but he had no tears.

He was the most famous knight in the whole of San Morio City. It was shameful for him to lose to an unknown man. Holden was depressed and did not want to change his perception of Darryl despite the defeat. He kept thinking his defeat was purely a coincidence.

Then, Dominic came over and let out a loud laugh as he said to Ivy, “Ivy, did you see that? Mister Darryl defeated Holden, so he’s qualified to be your teacher, right?”

Dominic could hardly hide his excitement when he said that. Although Darryl might not have won the competition in a grand way, even confusing some people, he still won in the end.

“Father, you saw it yourself; Holden was not able to move. Obviously, he wasn’t in good condition to fight today, so this competition shouldn’t count!” Ivy said, biting her lips.

Like Holden, Ivy thought it was an accident that Holden was not able to move during the fight. Otherwise, Darryl would not be able to defeat him at all.

Dominic's face changed; he was going to scold her.

“This is interesting. It turns out Miss Ivy would go against her word. You’re the one who proposed the game. But, now that you’ve lost, you deny it. Mister Mayor, are these the rules here in San Morio City?

Whatever you promise can be ignored?” Darryl said to Ivy, looking relaxed.

Everyone’s gaze turned to Ivy. She was the one who said if Holden lost, she would accept Darryl as her teacher. ‘Is she really going to go back against her bet? Ì

Ivy bit her lips as Darryl smiled at her till it was almost bleeding.

“Ivy, apologize to Mister Darryl immediately!” Dominic scolded Ivy, feeling ashamed.

He was the Mayor of San Morio City and his daughter was about to go against her word. What would happen to his reputation if this spread out?

Ivy trembled as she got scolded. Then, she walked over slowly and whispered to Darryl softly as she blushed, “Mister Darryl, I’m sorry. Please, give me more guidance in the future.”

In the Roland Continent, nobody bowed or kneeled when an apprentice recognized their teachers. There was no tradition of serving tea as well. However, Ivy agreeing to recognize Darryl as her teacher and apologizing to him in public was the most she could do.
