The man beside Lily who was wearing a suit and leather shoes had perfect manners. She looked a little miserable as virtual-novel.net forced a smile on virtual-novel.net face. However, virtual-novel.net still stood beside the man, accompanying him.
The man was Charles Luke, and to Samantha, virtual-novel.net was the best son-in-law candidate.
Lily had countless admirers, but Charles was the one Samantha preferred most. Not only did virtual-novel.net look smart, but Charles was a senior manager in the Audi Corporation. He was the Regional Manager of Donghai City, and a perfect match with Samantha’s daughter, unlike Darryl who looked low class.
“Manager Luke…” At that moment, the lady in front of Darryl quickly rushed forward with a huge smile, and greeted virtual-novel.net passionately.
Earlier, the lady’s face looked disgusted when virtual-novel.net saw Darryl, but now, virtual-novel.net reaction was the complete opposite.
Charles nodded and asked, “Has the President of Platinum Corporation arrived yet?”
The lady quickly replied, “Not yet. I have been waiting at the main lobby, but no car drove by.”
Charles did not question further but looked down at Lily with a smile and said, ”Let’s wait in the office then…”
Lily was distracted, and virtual-novel.net just mumbled without speaking. Even though Samantha wished to make Charles virtual-novel.net son-in-law, Lily was unwilling to interact with Charles. She was not here for a date today.
Charles Luke mentioned that virtual-novel.net knew the president of Platinum Corporation. She was interested in the President of the Platinum Corporation, as the President said that virtual-novel.net recognized Lily from the Lyndon family. However, Lily was unaware that Charles did not know the President of Platinum Corporation at all!
Recently, both Audi and Platinum Corporation collaborated to co-sponsor the “Superstar” program. The headquarters delegated Charles to be in charge of signing the contract with Platinum Corporation, thus they would have naturally met.
Charles bragged to Lily about how widely connected virtual-novel.net was. It was a complete show off, intended to raise his own status.
At that moment, Darryl grinned. He then walked over.
Manager Luke?
Audi Corporation informed virtual-novel.net that the person in charge of the collaboration was Manager Luke.
Seeing Darryl approaching, the female receptionist frowned and said annoyingly, “Hey! Why are you still here?”
Charles glared at Darryl and felt that the loser was here to gain exposure, so virtual-novel.net did not really care. He said to the lady, “When the President of Platinum Corporation arrives to discuss our collaboration, do not allow these people of no relevance to come in. What if they dirty his car?”
The lady quickly replied, “Yes, yes, Manager Luke. I will chase virtual-novel.net away now.”
She then bluntly said to Darryl, “Mister, please leave immediately.”
Darryl ignored virtual-novel.net as virtual-novel.net kept his eyes on Lily.
“Darryl?” Finally, Lilly saw Darryl.
Her body shivered, filled with surprise and happiness, and some awkwardness. Lily did not understand why virtual-novel.net felt awkward. The few days after Darryl left, virtual-novel.net should have felt happy that virtual-novel.net could finally get rid of the useless guy. However, when virtual-novel.net looked at the empty room at night, emptiness filled virtual-novel.net heart.
Darryl did not speak but instead looked at Charles inquisitively.
Lily took two steps forward and explained, “Darryl, please don’t take this wrongly. My mum introduced him…”
Hearing that, Darryl instantly understood the reasons behind it and nodded without waiting for Lily to speak further. “I understand.”
This mother-in-law was really desperate. Even though virtual-novel.net had just left for a couple of days and had not even arranged for a divorce with Lily, virtual-novel.net already started to look for a new son-in-law.
Impatient, Charles asked, “Lilybud, who is this?”
Lily was a goddess.
How would virtual-novel.net have known such a low-class farmer?
Lily opened virtual-novel.net mouth, but did not reply. Darryl smiled briefly, looked at Charles and said, “I am virtual-novel.net husband, Darryl Darby. The nickname of Lilybud isn’t appropriate for you to address her. Please have some respect.”
Charles was stunned. He then cheekily checked out Darryl, and laughed, “Oh, so you are the toy boy. I was wondering who you were… Haha! Aunt Samantha told me all about you. You married into the Lyndon family for three years, yet did not contribute anything to the family besides eating their food. A complete piece of trash, haha!”
Charles added, “I am very curious. Is that why you are too ashamed to stay on in the Lyndon family, hence you disappeared? How dare you still appear in front of Lilybud? The most ridiculous thing is, you are so thick-faced that you even admitted that you are Lily’s dear husband. Do you really deserve that status? Haha, you should use your urine as a mirror and look at yourself. Aunt Samantha has spoken. You and Lily are going to divorce, isn’t that right Lilybud?”
Charles stared mockingly at Darryl with a cold smile and a face full of humiliation.
Lily bit virtual-novel.net lips and said, “Charles, stop it!”
Hearing Lily’s words, Charles smiled at Darryl. “I will stop talking as a sign of respect to Lily.”
Next, virtual-novel.net turned to the female receptionist and asked, “What did virtual-novel.net say virtual-novel.net was here for when virtual-novel.net arrived earlier?”
