The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 791

Read The Ultimate Husband by Skykissing wolf Chapter 791 – “Darryl, I heard you won first place in a Poetry League, yet you declined the ‘Gifted Hibiscus Scholar’ title. Can you tell me why?” Debra asked Darryl through the gauze curtain at that instance.

Darryl responded with a smile. “I created the poem on a whim when I passed by at that time. It doesn’t matter whether I won the title or not.”

‘What?’

‘He did it on a whim?”

That took the hundreds of Artemis Sect Elders present by surprise as their hearts rumbled in their chests.

Humility was also a good virtue to have besides being gifted.

‘Did he know he’s talking to Artemis Sect Master- the most talented woman!’

Everyone gulped in surprise and murmured in their hearts. ‘Darryl has no idea about humility. He’s such a blunt young man.

Simon who was standing at the side made a sneer from the corners of his mouth.

‘Darryl is talking to the Sect Master without a sense of humility.’

Simon took a step forward and looked at Darryl with a strange smile after judging him in his mind.” Are you saying that it’s easy to write that poem? Do you know how many scholars participated in the Poetry League? You even have the cheek to say you’ve won first place from a poem you so effortlessly created?”

Darryl shrugged and interrupted him with a smile before Simon could finish speaking. “It’s true that I wrote the poem on a whim. Likewise, I did the same when competing with you last time and won.”

Darryl noticed that Simon was finding fault with him.

Jewel added. “That’s right. Anyway, you lost to Mister who’s much more talented than you!”

“You!”

Simon felt a wealth of emotions in his heart which was seething with anger and upset. He was speechless for a while as his body shivered in fury which caused him to almost spew out blood.

Everyone around frowned.

“That kid is ballsy.’

‘There isn’t a need for him to mock Elder Crescent even if he’d beaten Elder Crescent…’

Darryl kept a straight face as he wore a faint smile and remained silent.

Truth be told, Darryl never wanted to put Simon down but it was Simon who had never missed an opportunity to find fault with Darryl. In that case, how could Darryl pretend as though nothing happened?
