Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 1497

The Empress, who was seated at the high altar, could not hide her frustration. “Why is it Luca again?! His competition means nothing at all.”

‘This Luca was only lucky earlier; he has no real ability at all!’

At the same time, Sloan could not help but look at Yvette and said, “Princess, it’s Luca’s turn to compete. Do you think he’ll win?”

She was not sure why, but Sloan could not control the excitement in her heart when she saw Luca going up the stage.

Maybe it was because Luca was special. It was a miracle that a Martial Saint made it to the grand finals.

“Sister Sloan, it doesn’t matter to me if he wins or loses,” Yvette replied calmly, not showing any emotion on her face.

Honestly, if it was earlier, Yvette would definitely be interested in Luca.

However, ever since she found out Darryl had died, Yvette’s world was completely dark and grey. Nothing could interest her anymore.

Sloan smiled when she saw Yvette was not interested, and she stopped speaking.

At that moment in the competition venue, Carl walked up the stage, looking arrogant and disdainful. He smirked at Darryl, “Luca! You didn’t expect to battle me, right?”

When he said that, Carl’s heart was full of vengeance.

Earlier during the semi-finals at the royal training ground, Carl wanted to steal Darryl’s Internal Alchemy Elixir, but he was chased away by Asher.

Carl was a person that would seek revenge, and he still remembered that incident!

Earlier, when Asher was around, Carl dared not do anything to Darryl. Now that Asher had pulled out from the competition and left Royal City, Carl had nothing to worry about anymore. He was not afraid of Darryl anymore.

At that moment, Carl still did not know that Darryl did not need Asher’s protection at all.

‘Sh*t! This rubbish!’ Darryl cursed to himself when he heard Carl’s taunting words. He let his annoyance show on his face but did not respond.

Seeing that Darryl was silent, Carl thought that Darryl was afraid of him, and he became excited. “Ha-ha. Luca, what did you do to let Asher pull out from the competition? Tell me, and who knows, maybe I’ll pull out from the competition too. Ha-ha!”
