However, Darryl did not care for that. He faintly smiled and followed the men into the car.
After a few minutes, they arrived at a private manor.
Even though it was far from the sea, the decoration was not the slightest bit inferior to those sea view villas. On the contrary, its layout was meticulous and orderly, highlighting the powerful atmosphere.
The entire manor was vintage-styled, and the whole place emanated an antique feeling.
The two men in black left once they escorted Darryl to the front hall.
Brandon sat atop an elegant wooden armchair. Upon seeing Darryl’s arrival, he stood up and pointed at a gift box to his side. "This is a gift from my sister to express her gratitude. Take it."
Brandon spoke of gratitude, yet his expression did not contain a hint of politeness, but instead, it was arrogance.
With Brandon's position in Donghai City, the entire Darby clan was unimportant to him, even more so Darryl. In truth, Brandon was not wealthier than the Darbys, but the Darbys were definitely afraid of him. It is because the Darbys are involved in business, but Brandon? He's not just involved in business; he’s also involved in the shady parts of society.
Moreover, Darryl was also the Lyndon clan's live-in son-in-law, which made Brandon look down on him even more.
Darryl did not mind his attitude. He nodded his head and went over to take the box.
Darryl then noticed that on the offering table was an enshrined striped thumb ring that looked like it was made of jade but was not. It had a sense of mystery.
Behind the thumb ring was a wooden sign, and several words were written extravagantly on it.
Darryl recognized the words ‘Tianshan’ on the front, but the words behind it were so scribbled that it was illegible. This thumb ring was really something, and it must be a high-quality antique.
"Darryl, right? During Jackson's wedding reception, m y sister and I could already tell that you're a partial cultivator. You must have taken some special pill.
That’s why your body is much stronger than the ordinary man," Brandon said.
Darryl was startled.
'How could they tell that he had taken the Universal Pill? It seemed that they were cultivators as well, and from the Tianshan School,' Darryl thought.
Darryl smiled and nodded. "Such meticulous minds."
As Darryl spoke, he opened the gift box, and inside it was a floral herb.
