Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 3498

Half an hour later, he had taken off his disguise and was walking out of the temple when he saw Thea outside.

"Darryl?! Why are you not in your disguise?" a startled Thea asked.

Darryl smiled and said, "There's no need for that anymore."

Thea thought about it and nodded. "You're right. You have a prominent status in the Temple of Light. No one in the whole of Pearl City would dare to behave impudently toward you. The Damien family has invited me to their banquet. I'm still contemplating whether I should go."

At that, Darryl could not help but laugh. "Why not? I'll make it worth your while. Let's go together!"

Thea nodded, and off they went. After a few minutes, they arrived at the Damien family's manor and were greeted with the sight of many fancy unicorn cars parked out front. The other families were there to suck up to the Damien family since they would soon control Pearl City.

The guards did not stop them from entering because Thea had an invitation card, but their eyes widened when they saw Darryl. 'Isn't that Master Darryl? How dare he show his face when he is the reason the Old Master is dead? A loser like him shouldn't be here at all!'

Thea immediately frowned when she laid eyes on her. She did not even bother to hide the disgust on her face. The woman was called Marnie, the eldest daughter in the Castro family, infamous for her biting remarks.

Thea's mood dropped. She never thought she would bump into that annoying woman there. Darryl was frowning too. 'D*mn it, what is Marnie doing here?' She was there for his wedding too, and there was no way he would forget what she said.

He secretly sized her up and noticed that the way she dressed had become even sexier than a month before. Her attire was a wine-red long gown that showed off her sexy collarbone and a deep side-slit that showed off her snow-white thigh.
