Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 97

Lily looked gloomy.

"What happened?" asked Darryl. He was happy to see Lily.

Lily sighed, "Grandma ordered for a family meeting."

Darryl frowned. 'Another family meeting? Granny Lyndon seems to like family meetings a whole lot. What on earth does she want?'

"I’ll go with you," offered Darryl. It was only on the way when he found out the purpose of the meeting-Trent Young was arrested. He initially agreed to twenty percent of the Lyndon estate shares, but the deal did not go through. Many in the Lyndon family blamed Lily for this, as she was not willing to cooperate.

People are selfish. If they had to pick between monetary gains or family, many would pick the former without any hesitation.

Trent’s actions were despicable. Everyone was mad at him yesterday, but at second thought, they—including Granny Lyndon-felt that Lily made a huge fuss over a minor issue.

Today's meeting is clearly intended for Lily.

"What should I do? They will definitely reprimand m e," asked Lily worriedly. 1 "Don't worry, you have me." Darryl comforted.

Lily felt better. She thought back about how Darryl defended her yesterday by beating Trent up, that was truly touching.

Then she thought, that's all he can do for her. He had n o standing in the family, no whatsoever authority to speak, how can he help? Forget it, she will play by ear.

Just when Lily is lost in her thoughts, she noticed Darryl took his phone and sent a message. 1

When they arrived at the Lyndons' residence, everyone was already there.

"Darryl, you dare show your face?" William pointed at Darryl and yelled.

Darryl replied coldly, "Why not?"

"If you didn't beat Trent up yesterday, things wouldn't have spiraled out of control," scoffed William. The rest nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, it was just a small issue-Trent likes Lily, it’s only normal if he flirts with her."

"Exactly, furthermore you are not worthy of our Lily."
