The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 5813

Natalie finally succeeded in unlocking her acupoints when the sun rose. She exhaled deeply, but her feelings remained complicated.

'Fortunately, Darryl did not return. Or my innocence—'

When she remembered what happened the night before, her face flushed, and she felt embarrassed. She thought that Darryl was a good man. He was not the man she thought he was, much to her surprise. What a shame that she used to admire him so much. Fortunately, after the previous night, she finally knew what kind of person he was.

She stood up and went to her dressing room in the back, where she changed into her robe. After that, there were a few maids outside waiting for her. "Come in."

When the maids heard the summons, they opened the door quickly and entered with exquisite food.

"Who was the one asking for permission to see me a few hours ago?" Natalie did not even look at the food. After what happened the previous night, she was not in the mood to feast.

A maid quickly showed herself and said, "Your Majesty, it was me."

Her voice trembled as she was worried. She thought the Empress would punish her for disturbing her.

Natalie asked gently, "What is it you want to inform me about so urgently?"

Darryl would not be spooked and leave her alone if it were not for that maid. She should thank that maid.

"Your Majesty!" The maid was no longer nervous when she saw the Empress was not angry at her. She quickly said, "General Tyson encircled and annihilated the Skyway Association's headquarters the night before yesterday. As a result, many of our tribe's merchants who worked with the Skyway Association suffered massive losses. Many leaders asked me to inform you, Your Majesty."

'What? He did such a thing?' Natalie's expression changed dramatically. She was immediately irritated. 'How much trouble will he cause? I asked him to stay in the barracks, and he was not permitted to enter the palace. He dared to put me in another sticky situation?'

Natalie was familiar with the Skyway Association. She knew it was one of the largest business organizations in the Nine Mainland's business district. They were involved in a variety of industries. Many civilians and Raksasa Tribal leaders did business with the Skyway Association.

To that extent, the Skyway Association provided many of the items used by the palace. As a result, the Skyway Association's annihilation would significantly impact the Raksasa Tribe's economy.

Darryl's unexpected appearance startled Natalie. Her body shook, and her instinct told her to take a step back. She forced herself to calm down a split second later. "Who gives you permission to come in?" she asked distantly.

She felt ashamed and angry thinking back to what had happened the previous night.

'What a despicable individual. He almost destroyed my innocence, and yet he dares to appear here. The worst part is that he acts as if nothing happened.'

Darryl did not understand what was going on when he received ill treatment from Natalie. "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing." Natalie tried to calm down. She asked indifferently, "Just say what you need to say. If there's nothing, then please leave the tribe as soon as possible."

Natalie really wished she could turn against Darryl. Her heart told her that Darryl was a hero of the Nine Mainland, and he wielded considerable power. Turning against him would be detrimental to the Raksasa Tribe.
