"Mister Xanthos is wise, indeed."
Tanya commented as she smiled at Nathan. "You're generous and admirable. it is a blessing to have a good official like you at the Green Dragon City Gate."
"Thank you, Miss Synder, for the high praise." Nathan waved his hand quickly with a humble smile on his face. "I'm just doing my part."
Then, Nathan gave an order to the soldiers next to him. "Why are you standing here? Hurry and untie them."
The two soldiers quickly untied the ropes that bound Tanya and Jonas.
Tanya was delighted to be freed and thanked Natha. "Thank you, Sir."
Tanya looked at Darryl. "Darren, can we talk for a second?"
Mmm!
Darryl nodded and followed her.
Jonas saw that, and he also went after them hurriedly.
"Darren!"
They stood next to the flower bed as Tanya said to Darryl gratefully, "Thank you for helping me just now; I was worried about you..."
As the Synder family's eldest young miss, Tanya was rather vain. No man had ever impressed her since she was young, but Darryl's actions had touched her that day.
Tanya had regarded Darryl as her friend.
Darryl smiled faintly; he still looked indifferent. "No worries."
"Cousin!"
Jonas said, "Why are you thanking him? He is a reckless man who only made the situation worse. Had he not tried to intervene, Zane would not have gotten angry with us or detained us. Today, we are lucky to meet a good official like Mister Xanthos—"
Jonas threw disdainful glances at Darryl.
He thought he and his cousin were safe because of Nathan's impartiality; it had nothing to do with Darryl.
He did not know that Nathan had released them because of Darryl.
