Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 76

Leaving would only make her look like a joke to Melanie, so Samantha stayed with all her strong will. She also decided that she would make her daughter divorce the piece of trash once she got home tonight. She would make sure the papers were settled by tomorrow.

Lily thought Melanie was a little too much, but looking at Darryl beside her, she felt helpless.

'Other people's husbands could impress their mother-i n-law's friends, but her husband? Forget it!' Lily thought.

At this moment, Melanie turned to Darryl and asked with a smile, "Darryl, what do you think of the gift Jimmy bought me?"

Without looking up, Darryl replied with a flat tone," Not bad."

'Not bad? What a joke. Could he afford it at all?' Melanie thought.

At this instant, everyone in the room laughed to themselves with looks of disdain on their faces.

'What were these people on about? What was so fun about comparing everything?' Darryl wondered. 2

Darryl could no longer stand their mocking. Helplessly, he stood up and left the room.

'Hahaha! This trash was too embarrassed to stay any longer? Without him, there wouldn’t be anyone to mock. That's no fun,’ everyone thought.

Both Melanie and Jimmy seemed disappointed that h e left, though Samantha was relieved that he finally left, or else she would have to sit through their mocking for however long. Lily wanted to follow him out to see what he was up to, but she dismissed the thought when she considered the situation in the room.

However, three minutes later, Darryl returned.

Samantha stomped her feet in anger when the door opened. "What are you doing back here? Have you not embarrassed me enough?"

Lily stood up and whispered, "Just wait for us in the car. What are you even doing up here?”

Darryl smiled without speaking. He had a present box i n his hand.

He got this present from Drake Darby after the wedding. This was a gift to compensate for the past. When Darryl was kicked out of the family and had married into the Lyndon family, none of the Darby family members attended his wedding. Drake had felt guilty about this and bought Darryl the present to make up for it.
