Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 4234

As he spoke, Robert stepped forward with a sincere expression. "I will be honest with you, Marshal. My sect master is one of Darryl Darby's lovers, indeed, but Darryl Darby has gone missing for two months now. On top of that, we have an unspoken rule within the Hidden Hero Sect that sect masters can no longer engage in romantic affairs upon acquiring their position.

"What I'm implying is that my sect master and Darryl Darby are as good as strangers now. The New World Royals joining the fiend race and wreaking havoc on the Nine Mainland is also a huge deal. My sect master sent us here to help with the bigger picture in mind."

Robert's tone grew with emotion as he reached the end of his speech. "I've said what I needed to say. If you still can't trust us, we'll just head back and report to our sect master."

That was far from what Robert intended. He watched Gonggong closely for a reaction.

Gonggong's eyebrows knitted at the words as she fell into silent thoughts.

Robert's words made sense. There was no reason for her not to believe him.

At the same time, the other generals began mumbling among themselves.

"How gracious of Debra Gable."

"Of course. She is the Artemis Sect's former Sect Master from the Great East."

"What a goddess! I can't believe she fell for someone like Darryl Darby."

Then, one of the generals came forward to speak to Gonggong. "The Hidden Hero Sect seems extremely sincere with their assistance, Marshal. I don't think we should turn down their help since they came all the way here."

The other generals nodded in agreement, as well.

Gonggong did not hesitate any further, nodding as she called out to Robert. "Precautions are necessary for such tense situations like this. I hope you did not mind my questions."

Gonggong smiled as she spoke. She had decided to let her guard down.

Since Gonggong no longer suspected him, Robert could hardly contain his glee. Yet he managed to maintain an expression of extreme humility on his face. "Of course not, Great Marshal. It would be our honor to be of your assistance."

Robert felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders.
