"Sect Master Jenn's aura is really weak. It seemed like someone had drugged her..."
"Could it be Darryl..."
Those comments were audible. White Horse and Weston might have looked shocked, but they were incredibly delighted.
'We have so many witnesses! No matter how well-spoken Darryl is, he will not be able to explain this.'
"Sect Master Jenn!"
Quincy snapped back to her senses. She walked toward Zoey and asked, "What happened? Tell us, and we will uphold justice for you."
Quincy glared at Darryl.
Everyone thought it was fairly obvious; Darryl had wanted to take advantage of Zoey, and it seemed like he had succeeded.
"I—"
Zoey bit her lips and said softly, "I was resting in my room last night. In the middle of the night, I heard Darryl patrolling the area. I said a few words to him through the door, and I don't know what happened next."
Zoey felt conflicted when she said that.
She did not believe that Darryl would do such a thing. However, they had all the evidence that he did; it was easy to doubt him.
Wow!
Everyone was in an uproar. They looked at Darryl; they were furious.
The fact was obvious—Darryl had drugged Zoey.
Sh*t!
Darryl was furious when he saw that.
He tried to explain himself. "I was never out patrolling last night. I couldn't have walked past Sect Master Jenn's room and spoken to her. Someone is obviously trying to slander me."
"Slander?"
White Horse yelled, "Darryl, here are all the facts, and you still want to deny it? Furthermore, Sect Master Jenn had said it herself. Why would she joke about her innocence?"
Weston began to shout as well. "There were rumors that you violated Lady Chang Er, and I had not believed it. It seems like you are a bad character and a despicable man. Sect Master Jenn has always supported you; how can you do that to her?"
"I—"
