The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 366

Read The Ultimate Husband [by Skykissing wolf] Chapter 366 – ‘D**n it! I was captured by the Heaven Cult from her villa the other day. It seems that she’s still angry at me!’ Darryl thought.

“Miss Newman, I really need a favor from you. It’s a matter of life and d***h,” he pleaded.

Although he did not know Circe long, he knew she had a kind heart under her cold face. If not, she would not have apologized to him for the phone incident.

“A matter of life and d***h?” Circe replied.

Meanwhile, Evelyn smirked, thinking Darryl was suspicious, “Oh, cut the act! I can see that you’re just trying to get closer to Circe, am I right? Don’t you even dare to fantasize about that, you d****e! Go lost and stop ruining our day!”

Evelyn felt better after slapping him, but his face still annoyed her.

Darryl did not respond and kept on looking at Circe with sincerity.

Watching Darryl just stand there, Evelyn said, “ Why are you still here? Aren’t you ashamed? Was the slap not enough for you?” She walked toward him and prepared to slap him again.

The other ladies looked at Darryl’s dumb face and laughed silently. Darryl looked dull, boring, and talentless. How would Circe fall for him? Ever?

“Evelyn,” Circe called out as she looked at Darryl with concern. “What is it?”

She really did not want to speak to Darryl, but she could not stand to see his anxious face. This was the first time she had ever seen him looking so nervous.

Darryl took a step closer. “Miss Newman, I’d like to know if your family still has the Heart of the Ocean that your family bid on during the Roger’s Auction ten years ago?”

’Heart of the Ocean?’ Circe wondered.

Hearing that, the ladies were shocked. They unconsciously turned their gaze onto Circe’s neck.

Indeed, the Newman family bought the Heart of the Ocean from the auction. The Heart of the Ocean was not only a miracle pill, but it also had an exquisite look. Circe had always worn it as a necklace since she was young, and she loved it dearly.

‘This dude was brave. He actually inquired about Circe’s favorite thing!’ Circe’s friends thought.

In that instant, Circe’s face flushed red with anger.

He promised to refine the pill for Evelyn and ran away, and for two days, she did not hear back from him. Now he decided to show up because he needed a favor.

Circe remained calm and answered coldly, “Yeah, the Heart of the Ocean is what I’m wearing on my neck right now.”

’This was great news!’ Darryl thought.

“Huh, why are you even telling him that? Look at his dumb face and his cheap clothes. Don’t bother about ten billion; I doubt he even has a million bucks with him!”

Darryl did not speak and smiled faintly at their remarks.

Meanwhile, Evelyn snarked, “Do you know that there’s only one Heart of the Ocean in the world? It was worth ten billion bucks ten years ago. Now it’s worth at least zo billion bucks!” She looked at Darryl with disdain. “Looking at you and your poor face, do you even know how much twenty billion bucks is? Even one truck can’t carry all that cash. You’d need a few trucks to do so. Do you understand? If you were to count every note, you’d be counting for the rest of your life. Do you get it?”

“I’d buy it if it’s two hundred billion bucks,” Darryl declared without hesitation.

He knew that there were at least 100 billion bucks in his account right now. Also, the Platinum Corporation had been doing quite well recently with their new show 101 Superstar making decent profits. He could get hold of a few hundred billion bucks from the company. If that was not enough, he could phone up Felix Blakely or Wayne Woodall.

Two hundred billion bucks was not a big deal. Even getting two thousand billion bucks was possible if he really needed it.

Of course, the Newman family was the wealthiest people in Kyoto, but even a wealthy family would not reject earning a few extra hundreds of billions of bucks! Darryl was determined to get a hold of the Heart of the Ocean todday, even if it meant going bankrupt. Only the Heart of the Ocean could save Dax’s life, and that was all that mattered.

Meanwhile, the ladies could no longer hold back their laughter and started laughing uncontrollably. They looked at Darryl like he was an idiot.

“He really was a good liar! He says he could afford it. Who was he kidding!’ they laughed to themselves.
