The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 3498

Chapter 3498

Half an hour later, he had taken off his disguise and was walking out of the temple when he saw Thea outside.

"Darryl?! Why are you not in your disguise?" a startled Thea asked.

Darryl smiled and said, "There's no need for that anymore."

Thea thought about it and nodded. "You're right. You have a prominent status in the Temple of Light. No one in the whole of Pearl City would dare to behave impudently toward you. The Damien family has invited me to their banquet. I'm still contemplating whether I should go."

At that, Darryl could not help but laugh. "Why not? I'll make it worth your while. Let's go together!"

Thea nodded, and off they went. After a few minutes, they arrived at the Damien family's manor and were greeted with the sight of many fancy unicorn cars parked out front. The other families were there to suck up to the Damien family since they would soon control Pearl City.

The guards did not stop them from entering because Thea had an invitation card, but their eyes widened when they saw Darryl. 'Isn't that Master Darryl? How dare he show his face when he is the reason the Old Master is dead? A loser like him shouldn't be here at all!'

The guards wanted to capture him, but their courage left them when they saw Thea standing by him. Darryl paid no mind to them and walked into the hall with Thea. Once inside, he gasped at the scene before him. It seemed as if all the influential and prominent families in the whole of Pearl City were there. Donnie and Grady were standing in the middle, laughing and chatting with those around them.

Donnie was ecstatic. It was a happy surprise that he got his position back from Lolita. It was the cherry on top when the Goddess of Light personally chose the Damien family to manage Pearl City. He felt he deserved all that had happened to him.

As for Grady, he was all smiles too. Even though the McClaren family was not the one with control over the city, what difference would that make when Donnie was a puppet under his control?

Once Donnie became the Mayor, it was as good as having control over the city.

As he looked at their happy faces, the corners of Darryl's mouth began to creep up in a mocking smile. He told Thea he would look for a place for them. He had decided to lay low since the Pegasus Paladin and the Golden Paladin were not here yet.
