The Ultimate Husband

“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.

It was rumored that William from the Lyndon clan was sent previously but got escorted out by Platinum Corporation, yet they did not give up and sent Lily, how shameless.

Just when everyone was waiting to laugh at Lily, a piece of surprising news was announced! Platinum Corporation agreed to partner with the Lyndon clan!

This news shocked the whole of Donghai City! Are they out of their minds? Partnering with a second class family?!

Lily was pleasantly surprised, she had yet to meet Platinum Corporation’s president, but the president’s secretary told her that she could come in to sign a contract the next day.

Oriental Pearl Hotel, Donghai City.

This was the most renowned hotel in Donghai City, the average spending here per person starts from a thousand bucks! Grandmother Lyndon was exceptionally happy today. She had booked the entire hotel to celebrate Lily’s success and had instructed everyone in the Lyndon clan to attend! Not only that, but she had also invited many guests. Being able to sign a contract with Platinum Corporation was extremely great news which you would want everybody to know!

In the hotel, Lily became the crowd's center of attention as she sat at the first table.

Darryl followed beside Lily, their seats were not yet warmed when they heard a reprimand from behind them.

“Get up, is this somewhere you belong? Give your seat to Miss Yvonne immediately!”

This sentence came from William, but now there was a young and beautiful woman standing beside him.

Upon seeing this woman, Samantha stood up without hesitation and said, “Quickly give your seat, you piece of trash!”

Samantha knew that this woman should not be messed with, for she was Grandmother Lyndon’s guest, Yvonne Yung, the young mistress of the Young clan.

The Youngs had been in the antique business for generations, it was rumored that all of their collections in total could be sold for at least two billion bucks!

Yvonne was invited by Grandmother Lyndon. She had noticed Lily from first sight, noting that she had on a pair of extremely beautiful high heels. Was that not The Worship of Crystal?

Everyone knew that Yvonne loved The Worship of Crystal but she did not own one. It was not that she could not afford it, but The Worship of Crystal was globally limited to only 99 pairs! This pair of heels was not something one could get just because they have the money, they need to have the right connections to have access to the heels.

“Move aside, are you blind? Can’t you see Miss Yvonne here?” William shouted angrily as Darryl did not react to him.

Darryl seemed like he did not hear a word as he continued to munch on some nuts.

“Are you deaf? Can’t you hear what William said?” Samantha said in fury.

It would not be worth the loss if Yvonne was offended because of Darryl. Although he had lent five million bucks to them, Darryl was still a piece of trash in Samantha’s heart. It was just pure luck that he was acquainted with a rich classmate.

"How about…you give your seat for now…" Lily said as she looked at Darryl.

"Okay," Darryl replied happily at Lily’s request. He got up and walked toward the table behind.

William chuckled and pulled the seat backward and said, “Miss Young, please be seated. That guy is just our clan’s live-in son-in-law, living for free with us yet acting like he matters. He is just an idiot, don’t be bothered by him.”

“Alright,” Yvonne softly answered. She sat down and gazed at The Worship of Crystal.

It was beautiful. Perhaps any woman who wore it would have their elegance elevated a few levels.

“Miss Lily, I’d like to ask…” Yvonne could not help herself. “I’d like to ask, where did you purchase this pair of heels?”

Lily smiled with her heart overjoyed. Everyone knew that Yvonne was a renowned beauty in Donghai City, but now her eyes were full of envy for her. Of course, Lily would be overjoyed.

“A friend gifted it to me,” Lily replied softly.

“Do... Do you mind troubling your friend to help me purchase a pair too? Don’t worry, I’m willing to pay double the price for your friend’s help!” Yvonne said.

Yvonne’s voice was not loud, but people seated nearby could not help but turn around to have a look.

The Worship of Crystal was priced at 30 million bucks! You could tell that the Young clan was very wealthy from her offering to pay double the price.

Both Yvonne and Lily were amazing beauties, and having them sitting next to each other was real eye candy. Yvonne was wearing a short skirt, showing off her pair of fair and slender long legs which attracted many men. They both have their unique qualities, winning the stares of many.

“My daughter, what else could you be thinking? Quickly call this friend of yours,” Samantha urged as she thought how great of a chance this would be in making a connection with the Young clan’s young mistress.

Lily bit her lips and nodded her head. She took out her cellphone and called Ashton Adagio.
