Chapter 165

Read The Ultimate Husband [by Skykissing wolf] Chapter 165 – Elsewhere.

Darryl fell into a long dream while he was unconscious. He was being chased in his dream, and he could

not stop running. Eventually, he slowly opened his eyes.

Darryl was greeted by the sight of a luxurious bedroom.

“Darryl, you’re awake?”

Darryl heard a cheerful voice. Lily’s eyes were red as if she was crying.

“Honey, why are your eyes so red?” asked Darryl with a smile. “Were you worried that something had

happened to me? Come, give me a hug.”

Darryl’s forced a pained smile. Even though his wounds have been tended to, they still stung.

‘D**n it. I can’t believe I got shot twice a few days apart,’ Darryl thought to himself.

Lily blushed and backed away shyly. “I… I wasn’t worried about you. I didn’t even cry!”

Lily refused to reveal her true feelings even at that moment.

The doctor mentioned that Darryl’s injuries were severe. The bullet was close to hitting his heart.

Thankfully, he had finally awakened.

“Darryl, I know what happened then. You and Dax saved us all,” Lily whispered. “You… You were really

manly, but how could you be so dumb? Those robbers had guns. What if something were to happen to

you?” Although Lily was moved by his actions, there was still some guilt in her tone.

Lily’s voice grew softer, feeling even more bashful.

Darryl looked at Lily with a smile and consoled her. “D***y, nothing’s gonna happen to me. Besides,

you’re my wife. Even if I had to sacrifice my life to save you in that situation, I would still do it.”

Lily felt warmth and affection in her heart.

“Where is this place?” Darryl clenched his teeth as he sat up on the bed.

This place was so luxuriously decorated. It could not have been the Lyndon residence.

“This is Dax’s house. His private doctor treated you,” Lily explained.

Darryl nodded his head. Dax was indeed a reliable comrade.

“Where’s Dax?” Darryl inquired.

“He’s in the main hall,” Lily replied. “Tomorrow is Dax’s grandfather’s birthday, and some guests arrived

earlier to congratulate him. Dax is entertaining them in the hall now.”

Dax’s grandfather was Saul Sanders. Two years ago, Saul handed the company over to Dax and

stopped involving himself in business. However, he still had a lot of power and authority in Donghai City.

He was held in high regard; many people would surely attend his birthday celebration.

“Is that right? I’ll have a look,” Darryl endured the pain and slowly got out of bed.

Darryl and Dax were like brothers. Since it was Dax’ s grandfather’s birthday, Darryl could not afford to

be disrespectful.

Lily quickly supported Darryl, seeing that he was still rather frail. “Are you sure you can go down like

this?”

Darryl had no regard for himself. It was really concerning.

Darryl motioned that he needed no help and smiled. “I’m fine now. Don’t presume that I’m weak after the

surgery. I’m well enough to even make love to you tonight.”

“Can you be a little more proper!” Lily started to blush. “So uncouth…”

Darryl laughed.

Seeing Lily’s bashful behavior brightened Darryl’s mood. He felt like he had recovered his vigor and

quickly stepped downstairs.

While Darryl was walking down, he took out his phone and sent a message to have someone bring a few

gifts. Since it was Dax’s grandfather’s birthday tomorrow, Darryl could not attend empty-handed as Dax’s

brother.

A dozen or so people sat in the hall. They were all prominent people from Donghai City. These people

had important matters to attend to tomorrow, and could not attend the celebration. That was why they

brought the gifts earlier.

Saul Sanders sat in the middle as he laughed. This old man was over 70 years old, and yet his body was

still tough and full of energy.

What a coincidence! Darryl laughed as he saw a familiar face. It was his high school class monitor,

Clifford Conway.

The people who came with gifts for Old Master Sanders were famous people within the society.

Clifford was not even worthy enough to think about giving gifts!

However, Clifford’s godmother maintained a good relationship with the Sanders. She was too busy, so

she had Clifford present the gifts.

Clifford was so thrilled at that moment!

After all, the Sanders family was renowned in Donghai City! If Clifford could use this opportunity to get to

know people like Dax, he would brag about it to his friends and family.

As Darryl and Lily entered the hall, all of them looked toward him curiously.

“Darryl, you’re fine! This is amazing, come sit with us,” Dax quickly stood up and greeted Darryl

ecstatically.
