Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 3181

Dominic closed the ancient book and diverted his attention to Ivy. He said with his brows furrowed, "Ivy, you are my beloved daughter. Why would I make a decision that would harm you? Him being your teacher will only benefit you!"

After a pause, Dominic said, "Besides, one could only dream of that opportunity. You ought to count your luck to have that chance!"

Ivy curled her lips. "I don't feel lucky at all. In fact, I think I'm the hapless victim!"

Dominic was very displeased to hear Ivy's sharp rebuttal; he slammed his palm down on the table. "Stop the nonsense! Let me remind you again to be respectful and polite to Mister Darryl from now on. Don't be unruly, you hear me?"

Then, Dominic's tone eased. "I'll tell you something. The truth is that Mister Darryl is related to Master Franklin from two thousand years ago but keep that strictly confidential. You must never tell anyone about that; you hear me?"

Dominic darted his eyes cautiously at the door for fear that a third person might have heard his conversation with Ivy.

Dominic was a very trustworthy person. He had promised Darryl to keep the secret and would never repeat the information to the public. However, he had no choice but to explain the situation to his daughter, who seemed biased against Darryl.

What?

Ivy was startled by the news. She felt her brain buzzing.

'Darryl is related to Master Franklin? How is that possible?'

A few seconds later, Ivy snapped back to her senses. She probed with her eyebrows furrowed. "Father, were you tricked? How could Darryl possibly have anything to do with Master Franklin? Master Franklin disappeared two thousand years ago, and there had been no news about him."

Dominic was amused; he laughed out loud. "Of course, I have evidence to prove my statement. That is an ancient book—" Dominic opened some pages in the ancient book where the Fuxi Primordial Bagua was mentioned. Then, he elaborated on the Bagua formation Darryl had deployed the previous day.

Oh…

Ivy was utterly stunned.

She had seen the Primordial Bagua described in the ancient book, and it was very similar to the one that Darryl deployed with the potted plants.

'Is he really related to Master Franklin?'

A few minutes later, Ivy left the study and then went to the room where Darryl was resting.
