Woo!
Everyone’s eyes brightened. At the same time, they finally understood the reason.
Lucas had accused Darryl as a bad person. How could the woman, as Darryl’s wife, not be angry?
Silence!
At that moment, the entire Sword Casting Pool was in such utter silence that the sound of a pin drop could be heard.
“Lucas!”
Darryl chuckled and looked at the man. “I think you should tell us the truth now. What happened that night?”
Even though he still did not know the connection between Jackie and Lucas, Darryl believed that Lucas would not dare to say any nonsense anymore.
“Uh—”
Lucas’s expression looked bitter. He muttered something under his breath before he looked at Jackie and shuddered. He could not continue his words.
He had slandered Darryl to help Jackie seek revenge, but how could he tell them that?
“Tell us!” Jackie reprimanded him coldly. She was still furious, so she did not even think about it.
At that moment, Jackie had utterly forgotten about the mission that she had given to Lucas—he was to catch Darryl no matter what. At that moment, she only wanted Lucas to explain himself so that Darryl and her could leave.
Gulp!
When he felt Jackie’s fury, Lucas shuddered and swallowed his saliva discreetly.
The next second, the teary-eyed Lucas opened his mouth and said, “Actually… actually, I was the one who orchestrated the entire thing that night. I got Darryl drunk on purpose and placed him in Parker’s room. I like Parker, and when I saw her so close to Darryl, it made me jealous. So I thought of this solution to blame him—”
When he finished, Lucas lowered his head; he looked unspeakably aggrieved and pitiful.
‘What the f*ck is this? I was only trying to help Master by defaming Darryl. Yet, now she is forcing me to tell the truth.’
Wow!
