The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 7

“Jade, stop it already,” whispered Lily softly after hearing Jade scolding Darryl.

Yesterday at the annual gathering William showed off his suit, yet it was Darryl who stood up and helped Lily relieve the embarrassment.

“Lily, you’re too soft-hearted. If it was me, I would have divorced him already,” said Jade coldly. "After being married to him for so long, yet you both haven’t consummated your marriage. I don’t know how you can handle facing this piece of trash every day,”

“Jade,” called out Darryl as he stared deeply at her. He could not hold it in anymore and made a step forward.

It had to be said that Jade was gorgeous, she was wearing a short tight skirt, exposing her fair legs.

“My wife’s company needs five million, why would you assume that I couldn’t help?” said Darryl with a smile. “I remember you said that if I can fork out five million, you’ll call me daddy?”

“Yes, I did say that.” Jade slowly stood up. “Show me then, if you can’t, you’ll call me your mommy then?”

“Excuse me,” Darryl sat down casually on a chair. He held up his dirty sack upside down and poured out the contents onto the table.

It was at this moment, the whole house was as silent as the grave!

Wads of red-colored cash notes poured out like a waterfall, the sofa could not even contain them all and many scattered on the floor.

(TN: Original RAW mentioned he poured out the contents onto the table, but then mentioned sofa.)

“This…this is…”

Jade stared in amazement, she was so astonished that she could not say a single word.

“All this cash… Is it really five million?!” Samantha walked over too, her initial anger now somewhat simmered.

Lily’s best friends Jade and Phoebe felt their legs weakened. Five million bucks in cash notes in front of their eyes, that kind of visual impact was indescribable.

“Call me daddy then, I’m listening,” said Darryl as he stroked his hair.

Jade eventually recovered from the shock.

She looked at Darryl and sneered, “Darryl, don’t think I’m not aware that Lily only gives you two hundred bucks a day. This amount here, I’m sure it’s not clean, right?”

Her words made Lily’s body tremble, she walked over quickly and grabbed Darryl’s arm, and brought him to the bedroom.

After closing the door, Lily whispered to him, “Darryl, where did that money come from, is it from dirty sources?”

“It’s clean, don’t worry and use it, I borrowed it from a friend,” explained Darryl after taking a deep breath.

Darryl was now the President of Platinum Corporation, but he did not want to reveal his identity too early because Lily would only think he was lucky.

“Friend? Where do you even find a friend?” said Lily as she anxiously stomped her foot. “After being married for so long, why do I not know that you still have friends?”

Darryl felt a pain in his chest. Indeed, after being banished from his clan, all his friends avoided him like the plague.

Maybe it was because his pride was hurt, Darryl turned around and walked to the door wanting to leave. “A classmate from back then got rich after starting a business of his own so he lent me the money. Just use it first,” said Darryl.

A few steps out of the room, he could hear Lily softly say, “I’ll return you this money as soon as I can.”

Both her best friends Jade and Phoebe had left.

“She didn't even call me daddy, can’t afford to play this game it seems?” Darryl mumbled to himself as he sat on the sofa and played with his phone.

These few days, Donghai City did not seem to be at peace.

Everyone knew that the largest entertainment company in Donghai City changed its new boss, and countless advertising agencies were seeking a partnership with them.

However, this new boss was very odd, even partners that had worked together with the company previously were rejected.

All these companies did not wish to give up easily. Given that Platinum Corporation was not partnering with anyone at the moment, they could dominate this big piece of cake themselves if they were to successfully secure a partnership!

Those who came to seek partnership were Donghai City’s first-class families. It was not expected that the second class Lyndon clan also wished to seek a partnership.
