'What?' The suggestion did not make Ronny happy. His face turned stiff. "Why do you want to bring that useless person? He doesn't know anything other than gambling. He's no fun at all."
Bringing Derrick into the conversation made Ronny angry. Ronny stopped the wedding entourage halfway during the parade on the wedding day. He had planned to humiliate Derrick, but instead, he was the one played. He even ended up with a swollen head when he was stung by the wild bees. After that, he arranged for Sully to create trouble for Derrick. However, he had lost three rounds in a row to Derrick and finally left in despair. Those two incidents had enraged Ronny.
"That's right!" Sheniqua agreed with Ronny. "Young Master Cruz is right. Bringing that Derrick will only spoil our fun."
Selina frowned as she scolded, "Sheniqua! Have you already forgotten what I just told you? You are not allowed to slander Derrick in the future!"
After that, she said, "I'm married to Derrick, so it's inappropriate to go out alone with you. People might start a rumor if they see us. So it's better to bring him along."
Ronny could not find an excuse to refute that, so he nodded unwillingly. "Alright." His face had an indifferent expression, but his eyes showed a sense of viciousness.
'Fuck that Derrick. He hurt me so badly, and my face was nearly ruined because of the wild bees. I must use this outing to have my revenge and return all the pain I suffered back to him.'
Selina finally smiled when Ronny agreed to let Derrick join them. She said to Sheniqua, "Get a new set of clothing for Derrick. He is a member of the Stanford family now. Other people will think he is a joke if they see him dressed like a beggar. It will bring disgrace to the family."
'Me again?' Although unwilling, Sheniqua still nodded. "Yes, Young Miss."
At the same time, Darryl, who was lounging outside, was unhappy to see Ronny barge straight into Selina's room. 'Damn it. Where are his manners? Who does he think he is to barge into the room of the Stanford family's Young Miss. Does he think this is his house?'
Nevertheless, he thought about his identity and could not bother to argue with Ronny. 'I need to think of a way to treat the Bloody Scales disease so Selina can recover and I can leave this place.'
With that in mind, he went to the pharmacy to select some herbs for his research, hoping to find a different prescription to cure Selina. Before he could ponder that, someone opened the door. Sheniqua entered the room with a measuring tape in her hand. She said coldly, "Young Miss said she is going to an outing with Young Master Cruz tomorrow, and she is bringing you too."
'Outing?' Darryl was stunned, but he immediately smiled and nodded. "Very well." 'I could use that outing opportunity to look for the Sword Plum Grass,' he thought. He saw the measuring tape and asked, "Why do you have a measuring tape?'
Sheniqua did not answer immediately. She threw the measuring tape on the table and said unenthusiastically, "Yong Miss said your clothing is too ordinary. It will disgrace the family if other people see you wearing those. So she is preparing to make new clothes for you. Take your measurements yourself, so I can pass them to the tailor for your clothes."
She sat in the chair with a detached demeanor, as if Darryl were the servant and she the master.
'What?' Darryl had mixed feelings; he felt angry and amused at the same time. "You are asking me to take my own measurement?" 'Sheniqua is getting more presumptuous. As a servant, she dares to ask the master to do everything.'
Darryl had not wanted to fuss about it, but seeing how excessive she became, he could not tolerate it anymore.
"What's wrong?" Sheniqua felt Darryl's anger, but she did not panic. She said coldly, "Are you waiting for me to take it for you?"
Darryl kept his cool for the moment and nodded with a smile. "Fine. I'll measure myself." He took the measuring tape and slowly began to measure his body. At the same time, he secretly put two types of medicinal herbal powders into the incense burner.
