It was just an outing. Why did he need to get new clothes?“Can’t I be excused from the outing?” Darryl asked.Kent would definitely be there since the outing was organized by the Hough family. Darryl did not want to meet him.Samantha stared at him. “Honestly, I wouldn’t have asked you along for such an upper-class social event, but Lily’s the President now and as her husband, you ought to be there.”Darryl nodded. “Fine, I’ll go get some new clothes.”Samantha coldly said, “That’s more like it. Get some money from Lily if you don’t have enough to get something good. Don’t always dress cheaply and embarrass Lily.”Darryl nodded again.Samantha finally left the room after nagging him a few more times.Once she left, Darryl quickly took out the ‘Ancient Army Weapon’ book again.The book cover was full of scratches and its words were barely visible.Not only that, there were some brown stains that looked like blood on the cover. From the looks of it, the book would have been th

“Shame on you, don’t you know people are calling you a live-in husband?” Lily blushed, but she quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it.”Darryl was not bothered by her words. “No worries, I don’t care what others say about me. You’re my wife, I only care about what you think of me.”Lily smiled and dragged Darryl on a shopping trip.She wanted to buy him a suit. However, for their past three years of marriage, Darryl had gotten used to wearing cheap non-branded clothes. He felt very uncomfortable. In the end, after many negotiations, Darryl bought two sets of branded leisure clothing.Darryl was about to make payment at the cashier after fitting when Lily stopped him.“I’ve never gotten you anything for the past three years of our marriage. Let me pay for you. Didn’t you just buy me plenty of clothes earlier?” Lily smiled.Darryl felt very warm by Lily’s words. He did not reject further and allowed Lily to pay for the bill.The next morning, the Hough family sent transp

“Why are you laughing?”Justin was upset. He pointed at Darryl and shouted.He knew that Darryl was a live-in son-in-law. How could a goddess such as Lily be married to such a useless man! Even though it might be a fake marriage, it was still unfair.Justin was jealous of Darryl and hence let it out on him. “If you dare to laugh again, I shall tear your mouth off. What’s so funny?”“It’s nothing, your name sounds great,” said Darryl.People surrounding him started to pronounce his name after listening to Darryl’s words. Justin Quinn, Just-In-Queen?That really sounded funny.Justin could not hold his anger anymore upon seeing people surrounding him start laughing. He was about to charge towards Darryl, but Lily stopped him. She said softly, “Mr. White, we’re here for fun and games. You don’t have to be angry.”“Fine then, the dear goddess is right.” Justin immediately held his temper, reached out his hand to Lily, and hoped to shake her hands. “My dear goddess, it’s my honor to

Megan glared at him, “I just don’t want my mood spoilt. If you continue to behave like this, please leave me alone and go on the outing on your own.”“Alright, fine. I’ll listen to you,” replied Kent immediately with a smile.Despite him saying that his face was full of anger when he looked towards Darryl.‘How dare a live-in son-in-law join our outing? I’ll make you embarrass yourself!’ Kent thought.“Hello everyone, thank you for your patience.” Edward Hough stepped forward and spoke into the microphone.Edward was Kent’s father, the leader of the Hough family, and also the outing’s organizer.He walked toward the crowd, looked around, cleared his throat, and said, “Everyone here is the younger generation of your family. I believe all of you know about our outing’s rules, so I’ll not repeat them again. Just one thing I’d like to remind everyone, please take care of your own safety. Again, please take care of your own safety!”Edward added, “We are now at Dragon Raising Lake. I

One billion bucks, how could William decide?Lily was the leader of the Lyndon family. Although the swimming competition was for entertainment, a billion bucks bet was no joke. If the Lyndon family was to lose one billion bucks, their family would be destroyed.William smiled but did not speak a word.Kent laughed. “So, the Lyndon family isn’t up to the bet?” “It’s just a game, but the Lyndon family is scared? I thought only Darryl—the live-in son-in-law—is a coward. I didn’t know the whole Lyndon family’s the same. Even William is a coward. Haha!”William was annoyed upon hearing that. “Why wouldn’t the Lyndon family take part?”How could Kent look down on him? He was the Lyndon family’s eldest grandson! William felt angry, but Lily was the family leader. He turned to Lily and pleaded, “Lily, we should join and show our support since Kent extended his invitation. What do you think?”Truth be told, everyone in the Lyndon family was jealous of Lily. How could a lady become their f

Ever since he left his family, Darryl had been staying in the village for a while and learned swimming on his own, hence his strokes looked rather awkward.“Haha, look at Lyndon's son-in-law. Is he swimming using doggy style?”“Oh, doggy style. That’s ridiculous!”Some of the girls started giggling.Lily angrily bit her lips from hearing laughter from the shores. When she turned to look at Darryl’s swimming style, she felt it was hilarious too.It was obvious Darryl had never received any professional swimming training before, but he was so confident just now. Although he was not slow, his speed would definitely not be able to win the race. Other than the first-place winner, everyone would lose the bet.Could she still believe in him? It was one billion bucks!If they were to lose, the Lyndon family would need to fork out one billion bucks. What would happen then? Perhaps she would lose her position as the family leader too.Thinking along those lines, Lily became worried. She

At that moment, the ‘shark’ swam towards Megan!Megan was terrified and shouted, “Kent, help!”Even though she had plenty of life experiences, that was a shark coming to her.Kent grinned. It was time for him to be the ‘Hero to the Rescue’! Haha!He wanted to show Megan how manly he was. That was the reason he had arranged for this ‘shark’ attack incident.The ‘shark’ was fierce and was swimming aggressively among the ladies!However, the ‘shark’ did not seem to bite…Zayler and Justin had realized this fact too, so they braced themselves and went over to protect their partners.On the other hand, Darryl was floating at the side and watching. Lily was disappointed. Why would Darryl not go and protect her in such situations?It seemed like she had overestimated him.“Kent, hurry! Hurry…” Megan was terrified. Why was the ‘shark’ only chasing after her?“Megan dear, don’t worry. Your husband is here!” Kent laughed loudly while swimming towards her. He took out a knife he had pr

“Wow, such good acting!” Darryl laughed. It was as if they were in the movies. Darryl then turned to swim towards Lily.“Lilybud, what happened?” Darryl asked as he approached Lily with her face upset.‘Could She have been frightened by the fake shark?’ Darryl thought.Lily was disappointed and replied coldly, “I’m fine. I’m not in a mood. Don’t speak to me.”She turned to swim towards the shore without looking back at Darryl.The fiancé of others was bravely fighting off the shark, making her all proud, but her own husband was doing nothing.She felt foolish thinking Darryl had turned a new leaf when he got a job. It seemed he did not change after all. She should not have asked him along for the outing.Darryl was stunned by Lily’s reaction. What happened to her all of a sudden?Just when he was about to catch up with her to find out further, there were shouting coming from the crowds on the shores again.“There is another shark!”“Sh*t! There is another one!”Under the scr
