In truth, Darryl did not want to argue with her. However, he had nothing to do at that moment after just passing the preliminaries and thought of teasing her.
Darryl was curious as to who this young lady was and how she was so bold to disguise herself as a man and attended the martial arts marriage tournament. Was she not afraid she might be killed if her identity was exposed?
“You…”
Parker trembled and looked at Darryl in disbelief. How did he know she was a woman?
No one could tell since registration until that moment.
Darryl smiled ambiguously in the next moment and sized her up. Parker instantly realized something as she blushed.
‘Right, just now he bumped into me. H-he must have felt something…’ Parker was extremely embarrassed, with that thought in mind and her face turned red as an apple before she started panicking a little.
“Well?” Darryl smiled upon seeing her expression change and said, “Are you still going to argue with me? This martial arts marriage tournament is mainly for Princess Yvette to pick a Prince Consort. What will happen if the New World Royals know that some woman has disguised as a man and is partaking in this event?”
“I…” Parker’s face flushed. She was so awkward she did not know what to say.
She pulled Darryl to a quiet corner without anyone’s presence in the next second before biting her lip and gently said, “Fine, I’m in the wrong just now and will let it go. Please don’t tell anyone. Can you help me keep a secret?”
Parker’s eyes were full of hope when she said that.
In truth, she was very reluctant to plead Darryl as she was the Famed Sword Manor’s heiress. When had she needed to bow down to anyone?
However, she had no other choice.
She had indeed broken the rules by disguising herself as a man to compete in the tournament. It would be troublesome if the New World Royals found out.
