Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 2645

As a result of Zhang Jue's might, the entire Green Cloud Sect felt immense pressure that rendered them unable to breathe.

"Mister Zhang!"

Conner finally regained his composure and forced a smile. "Mister Zhang, you arrive so quickly," he said as he walked forward. "Please accept my apologies for the delay."

Zhang Jue had no expression on his face. He looked at Conner calmly and said, "Sect Master Yoel, you said you had captured Darryl; where is he?" Bring him to me!"

That…

Conner had a bitter expression on his face. He hesitated, then bowed with his fists together. "Mister Zhang, I shall be honest. Darryl was too despicable; he had escaped from the prison. I have dispatched my men to search for him everywhere..."

Camryn, who stood next to him, said, "Yes, that Darryl is such a horrible person. Not only did he flee, but he also kidnapped our adopted daughter!"

'You talk too much!'

Conner was really upset as he glared at Camryn. However, he did not show his emotion as Zhang Jue was there.

"Really?"

When Zhang Jue heard that, a smile came on his face. "Conner, you dismissed the responsibility so easily," he said coldly. "However, those were only words. How do I know if Darryl escaped on his own or if you let him go?"

What?

Conner's expression changed when he heard that.

'What does Zhang Jue mean by that? He doesn't believe me?'

Conner smiled and thought for a moment before he said carefully, "Why do you say that, Mister Zhang? Why would I ally with you if I wanted to aid Darryl? It is quite shocking, Mister Zhang, if you are suspicious of me."

"Suspicious of you?"

Zhang Jue laughed. His voice was deep when he said, "Conner, let me ask you, I heard that your adopted daughter is Darryl's apprentice, is that true?"

"Your adopted daughter also formed the Rose Mercenary Group two years ago and became its leader? Just a few days ago, she even became the mercenary groups' alliance master. Did you know that too?"

When he said that, Zhang Jue's face was expressionless. His heart was exceptionally cold and cruel.
