“Darryl, dump away our foot wash.”Three women sat on the sofa, having just had their feet soaked and washed. From afar, these three beauties exuded an air of seduction and class, each with their unique charm. Among these three women, was Darryl’s wife and her two best friends. Upon his wife’s behest, Darryl dumped the bowls of dirty water away subserviently. He dared not utter a single complaint; after all, he was the family’s live-in son-in-law. Even after three years of marriage, he had no place in the family. His wife and mother-in-law would berate him for the slightest mistakes. Even a mutt would have a higher standing in the family than he did.Darryl and Lily Lyndon were husband and wife for three years, but only in name, for they have not consummated their marriage. He has not even felt the touch of her hand! Every night Darryl slept on the floor because of how heartily Lily despised him.Washing, cooking, cleaning the rooms, every single household chore was Darryl’s duty.

“Can’t you go any faster? I’ll be screwed if I’m late,” said Lily impatiently at the sight of Darryl’s slow-moving vehicle.As the words left her mouth, Lily began to regret them. Darryl through his sheer will pushed his busted up bike through its limits!The speed of the bike was too much for Lily, and she could not help but hold on tight to Darryl’s waist.The sudden hug caused Darryl’s body to quiver all over. After three years of marriage, this was the first time they had physical contact with each other.

Meanwhile, at Neptunus Corporation.Lily had just left the meeting room after finishing her meeting with the shareholders when she saw her female employees talking and laughing at their cellphones. How dare they shrug their duties during working hours? Lily walked toward them intending to reprimand, but instead, she saw that they were watching a video, and in that video was none other than Darryl!“My bike bro, don’t you worry. I’ll avenge you for this…”In the video, Darryl was caressing his bike with a face full of sorrow. “Haha, this guy is hilarious, who is it?”“You don’t know? It’s Miss Lyndon’s husband.”“What? Do you mean that piece of trash Darryl? So I’ve heard that she was married to a piece of trash…”The ladies were happily gossiping away when one of them stood up and did a mimicry of Darryl. “I don’t suppose you girls know that earlier today when I just arrived at work, I heard Darryl said he was gonna buy The Worship of Crystal for Miss Lyndon!”“Hahaha, that

‘Damn you, I just washed this set of clothes yesterday, and now you’re saying it’s dirty?’ Darryl thought to himself. He was about to voice his opinion but before he could do so, he was dragged away by Alex Armstrong.The two were close friends back in high school. They had fought together and even ditched classes together. Alex might be the only one tonight that was not disgusted with Darryl. Dragging Darryl to a corner, Alex shook his head and said, “Bro, I’m telling you, a girl like Giselle isn’t the type for us to get hung up on. Aren’t you asking to be ridiculed for simply sitting beside her?” Darryl said nothing and merely chuckled. They wined and dined the whole night through, and the evening passed by quickly.Giselle was a little tipsy, and under the crowd’s pressure, she picked up the microphone and sang while gently swaying her body. Her appearance was sensual and seductive, striking awe at the men around. Giselle was truly a beauty!It was only at night when they dec

The Lyndon clan’s authority rested in the hands of the grandmother, and she favored William the most. Moreover, William’s development is pretty decent, he has at least 30 million worth of assets. Any offense toward him would surely not end well.“Mom, what are you doing?” asked Lily as she walked over and held her mother back. Even though she detested Darryl, it was him that had gotten her out of her predicament. Darryl covered his face, the red slap mark on his cheek was strongly visible. However, he had a small smile on his face. After three whole years, this was the first time Lily spoke on his behalf. Darryl simply turned and left, with a smile on his face.“Get your ass back here, you piece of trash!” Although it was quite a distance, Darryl could still hear Samantha’s shouts. As the crowd watched the spectacle unfold, an aged voice could be heard from not far away. “What’s with all the commotion?” Grandmother Lyndon asked as she walked onto the stage. The originally bus

Darryl glanced at Pearl. If he was not mistaken, she should be the secretary his uncle mentioned about.“Sorry President, I didn't mean to be late. There was a traffic jam...” Pearl explained softly, afraid to look Darryl in the eye, and merely bowed. “Pearl, what nonsense are you talking about!” Penelope stepped forward. Her beautiful appearance was slightly tinged with anger. “This is our company’s new security guard, why are you addressing him as president?”“Security guard?” Pearl searched inside her handbag and took out a photo. She compared the photo with Darryl, and hurriedly replied Penelope. “Miss Peach, there is no mistake. This is our company’s new president, Mister Darby.”“What!?” The crowd stood there with their mouths agape, and stared at Darryl in disbelief!“Uh Miss, you... you have to be mistaken?” Giselle bit her lip tightly and looked at Pearl. “This guy is Darryl, he was my classmate in high school. Look at how uncouth he is, how could he be the president?”

“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 th

It only took three seconds for Ashton to answer the call. Lily pushed the loudspeaker button.Samantha, who stood beside, started smiling upon seeing Lily’s cellphone screen. “My dear daughter, so Ashton was the one that got you The Worship of Crystal. He’s a good man, be sure to appreciate him, my dear.”Samantha purposely said it loudly, not forgetting to glance at Darryl. Compared to Ashton, Darryl was worthless. Ashton mentioned before that if Lily were to marry him, he would be willing to pay a dowry of 20 million bucks!On the other end of the phone, Ashton was sitting by the sidewalk. Not long ago, he had received a phone call, informing him that the Darby clan had revoked all his fundings! Ashton had a meltdown upon hearing the news.
