Read The Ultimate Husband [by Skykissing wolf] Chapter 89 – Kent Hough stood up straight, thinking he looked handsome, he said, “President Woodall, I’m glad to meet you-”Kent froze. Wayne did not even look at him but walked straight toward Darryl.
“Mr. Darby, you called, what can I help you with?”
What? Mr. Darby? Wayne Woodall actually acknowledged this live-in son-in-law with an honorific?
Everyone’s jaw dropped, they were all bewildered. How is it possible that a loser like Darryl would be of acquaintance with a person like Wayne Woodall?
Just when everyone is still recoiling from shock, Darryl smiled gently, nodded towards Wayne. “Nothing special, just wanted to see you,” said Darryl.
“Mr. Darby, you’re too kind!” Wayne laughed politely. He scanned the room and suddenly seemed to understand the situation. He added, “Mr. Darby, you should’ve told me beforehand that you’ll be coming. I would’ve prepared for you.”
At that, Wayne waved towards the waiter, “Tell your manager to waive all expenses in this box.”
What? All free? Kent and the rest were shocked to their core. Looking at Darryl complicated their feelings even more. How does this dude have such huge respect from Wayne Woodall?
Just when the waiter was about to head out, Darryl stood up and waved his hand, “Don’t bother! Today’ s expenses should be calculated down to every cent. I’m not the one treating plus I barely ate anything. Furthermore, the people paying are not short of cash.”
Wayne responded by signaling the waiter to leave.
“Ok, that’s all. I should leave too. You go get busy,” Darryl dismissed Wayne with a wave. Wayne’s appearance had a great effect on the rest.
“It’s strange, isn’t this guy a live -in son-in-law?” They started to discuss among themselves. The ladies were remorseful. Who would have thought that this live-in son-in-law has such strong connections! If they knew earlier they would not have taunted him.
The white-faced Kent started to calm down. Upon hearing their discussion, he sneered with disdain, “What special relationship? You guys know nothing. I ’11 have you know that Wayne Woodall has business with the Lyndon’s. The last I heard, when it was Grandma Lyndon’s birthday, Wayne personally sent a gift himself. So, Wayne being polite to that dude is all because of his connections with Grandma Lyndon! If he weren’t Lyndon’s’ son-in-law, Wayne would never bat an eye at him!” snorted Kent.
At that, the rest thought it all made sense. Kent’s expression, however, darkened. ‘You’re good Daryl Darby. I was almost unnerved by you. Using your connections with the Lyndon’s to boost your status, how shameless!’ thought Kent.
Darryl was in the lobby when he bumped into Megan who just exited the washroom. She changed her set of clothes. Wearing dark blue skinny jeans, that curvaceous, s**y figure is enough to conquer any men.
“Darryl, what happened? Are you leaving?” asked Megan as she walked towards him.
