Darryl did want to be overly concerned about Megan, but he could not bear to see her distressed look.
"Very well!" Megan smiled faintly and went to the backyard to rest.
Ugh!
As soon as Megan left, Darryl leaned back on his chair and sighed.
Then, he looked around and was taken aback momentarily.
He saw Susan and the Carter family stared at him with conflicted expressions on their faces. They seemed hesitant to speak.
It was apparent that they thought Darryl was ignorant to trust Megan.
"Auntie Susan!"
Darryl smiled bitterly. He looked at Susan and said, "You think I made the wrong decision? And that I shouldn't trust Megan?"
Susan pondered and replied softly, "I can't tell whether Megan was being real or not, but I trust your judgment."
Like all the other big sects, Susan was also skeptical about Megan, but she believed in Darryl and supported his decision.
"Thank you, Auntie Susan!" Darryl nodded with a grateful smile.
Darryl was pleased. When the entire cultivation world had misunderstood him, his family stood by him, and he thought that was enough!
As they talked, Darryl heard a burst of laughter from the outside, and immediately afterward, Zhurong and the Divine Farmer strode into the hall. Both of them were fatigued from their journey, but their faces were full of excitement and happiness.
"Brother Zhurong, Senior Divine Farmer."
Darryl was delighted to see them; he greeted them hurriedly. "Where have you been?"
When Darryl led the Westrington Army to World Universe's rescue, he noticed that Zhurong and Divine Farmer were not around. He was puzzled, but he had no time to ask Susan about it because of the urgent situation.
