Lily honestly thought that Darryl surprised virtual-novel.net with the lanterns that had virtual-novel.net name on them. Her guess was rebutted almost immediately. It was a huge project. Darryl would never put in the effort to do this.
“Look, the lanterns have words on them!” Somebody called out.
The crowd clamored. How romantic! They wondered who was the lucky girl!
“It’d be great if someone wrote my name on those …” Some girls were envious.
Phoebe walked to Lily and held virtual-novel.net hand, “Lily, you’re really lucky!”
Lily smiled and nodded to Justin. Although virtual-novel.net did not have an interest in him, virtual-novel.net was touched. She could sense that Justin was willing to put in the effort for her.
Beaming with happiness, Justin smiled. “I’m willing to do anything to see you smile.”
He could see that Lily was touched. That was a good sign to ask virtual-novel.net out!
Lily smiled and took out virtual-novel.net phone to take a photo when virtual-novel.net noticed a familiar figure walking toward her.
She was elated and surprised! “Darryl!” Lily ran toward virtual-novel.net with a cry of surprise.
At the same time, Jade was shocked and became nervous. She stuttered, “Da…Darryl…”
She was used to calling virtual-novel.net ‘Daddy,’ but virtual-novel.net could not use that nickname in front of so many people. It would be embarrassing. Sensing Jade’s awkwardness, Darryl smiled and nodded to virtual-novel.net in acknowledgment.
Justin clenched his fists in anger. Damn it, the live-in son-in-law appeared during the most crucial moment as virtual-novel.net was about to get close to Lily.
‘Why is virtual-novel.net here? Isn’t virtual-novel.net in the library?’
Lily smiled and asked Darryl, “What took you so long?”
It had been over half an hour since their call.
Darryl smiled bitterly, “There are too many people here.”
His gaze fell on Justin as virtual-novel.net snickered, “Justin Quinn, you really are shameless to flirt with someone’s wife in public.”
‘F*ck, he’s flirting with my wife, and virtual-novel.net even spent a huge amount of money on her!’
He had been bugging Lily throughout their outing. The lanterns with Lily’s name were all part of Justin’s plan.
Justin’s expression changed instantly. He was about to speak when Jade interrupted, “Darryl, what are you talking about? Mister Quinn planned for a surprise for Lily and nothing else. How could you talk to virtual-novel.net like that? How dare you act arrogant when you’re just leeching off Lily?”
“Jade, stop…” Lily whispered as virtual-novel.net smile disappeared.
“Darryl, did you hear what the pretty lady said?” Justin scoffed, “I’m giving Miss Lily a surprise. What are you going to do about it? You’re just virtual-novel.net husband legally, but you’re not spouses in reality, am I right? I admit that I like Lily, and I’m going
after her. Do you have a problem with that?”
Justin looked at the rows of lanterns and continued, “I see, you are upset that I’m being romantic. Darryl, to be frank, what did you provide to Lily after being married for three years? You must be angry that I gave virtual-novel.net a surprise.”
Many passersby stopped to look at Darryl. People were nosy and attracted to drama.
Darryl laughed and stared at Justin. “Justin Quinn, you are true to your name; you are as arrogant as a queen. How dare you speak so blatantly when you’re interested in my wife?”
Darryl paused to look at the rows of lanterns and continued, “Where did you get your superiority complex from? It’s just a small trick.”
Justin was taken aback before virtual-novel.net burst into laughter, “Haha, you are right. Darryl, I do feel superior, so what? All the writings on the lanterns throughout the whole street were done by me, how about that? Do you have the ability to do that?”
The crowd laughed in approval. Everyone could see that the guy’s wife was getting chased by an admirer who put in a considerable effort to write virtual-novel.net name onto a few hundred thousand lanterns!
Poor guy.
