Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 335

Ophelia smiled upon hearing Darryl’s words and said," How would you know the Heavenly Restoration Pill that you refined did not fail?”

Darryl smiled plainly and confidently replied, "I've never failed at refining pills.”

It would be hard to fail with a magnificent book such a s the Infinite Elixir Manual!

Ophelia nodded her head. "You’re an interesting kid with such confidence. You should know that ever since I became the Chairlady of Jiangnan Elixir Association, none dared to reject me as you did. Even Pill Refining Masters and the Six Sects Elders were respectful to me, yet you dare reject my invitation to the Elixir Association?" 2

Darryl laughed without saying a word as he found her arrogance amusing.

'You look barely older than me and yet you’re calling m e a kid?' Darryl thought.

At that moment, Ophelia suddenly smiled and slowly said, "Kid, the truth is the pill that you refined is

indeed the real deal. You didn't fail at refining the pill." 1

What?

Darryl furrowed his eyebrows.

'Damn, what's going on? I obviously succeeded so why

did you say I failed just now? Is something shady going on?' Darryl thought.

Ophelia saw that Darryl was filled with anger and continued explaining, "I understand you must be really dissatisfied with the outcome, but I did so for your own good. Think about it, what will happen had I publicly announced the Heavenly Restoration Pill you refined is indeed genuine?"

What would happen?

Darryl smiled lightly and unhesitatingly replied," What would happen is that Miss Monte would be crowned champion."

Ophelia shook her head. "Do you know why I called you a kid? It's because you're immature. You should know many prominent families’ members came to watch today's competition and among them are those rich and powerful kids who for various reasons are unable to cultivate. If they knew you could refine the Heavenly Restoration Pill that would allow them to cultivate, don’t you think they will capture and force you to refine pills for them?" 1

This...

Darryl calmed down upon hearing her words. He felt a little anxious after some consideration.

Ophelia was right. Darryl would be in danger had the truth of him being able to refine the Heavenly Restoration Pill was revealed during the competition.

Darryl was utterly speechless when he thought back t o what had happened during the competition on his journey home.

Damn, today was such a mess.

First, it was Abbess Mother Serendipity who wanted t o kill Darryl because of a rumor she heard somewhere.

He then managed to refine the Heavenly Restoration Pill which would clearly help Isabella become the champion but Ophelia said that it could not be announced in the end.

The most amusing of all was that Ophelia even wanted Darryl to be her apprentice.

What elixir pill could he not refine with the Infinite Elixir Manual such that he needed Ophelia to be his mentor?

The time was 8pm.

Darryl sat on the sofa after dinner and watched some television with Lily.

Holding his wife while watching television was such a wonderful thing to do after a long and hard day. The matter which made him happiest was Caelan's phone call before going to bed.
