Dax acted as if he did not hear a single word as he sat quietly and emotionless beside his wife.
Yvonne felt terrible from seeing everyone laughing at Darryl, "I'm not experienced. I cannot be sure. There may be certain people using ceramic jars to produce elixir..." 1
How foolish of her. She was busy sharing general knowledge of producing elixir that she had unintentionally humiliated Darryl.
“Haha, Miss Young, you don't need to cover for him anymore."
"Yes, even though this live-in son-in-law had saved you from the shark this morning, you do not need to b e grateful. He's just a fake!"
William laughed. "Perhaps even if the jar explodes, he will not be able to produce anything. Darryl, stop acting. Don’t you get tired?"
Pop! There was a loud vibration in the ceramic jar which startled everyone present and caused them to step backward. The ceramic jar did not break as the sound was from the reaction of gathering energy in the ceramic jar.
Darryl slowly opened the jar’s cover with everyone anxiously peeping before becoming speechless. Some of the ladies shouted and felt weak.
There was a black elixir lying quietly at the bottom of the ceramic jar which also released a very nice scent a t the same time.
What? Did he just produce that?
Everyone’s mind went blank as they blankly stared at the elixir. That was impossible!
Lily who was biting her lips got excited and curious at the same time! Her husband would never fail to surprise her. She felt she did not know him well.
"Dax, the elixir is ready. I'll feed it to her." Darryl took the elixir from the jar and fed Nancy.
Dax did not say a word despite everyone’s comment earlier as he was worried it may distract Darryl from producing the elixir. Now that it had been completed, he was relieved.
’’Darryl, thank you." Dax nodded while waiting quietly for Nancy to regain her consciousness.
