Chapter 3319
Finally, after more than an hour of hard work, Darryl managed to release his acupoints.
Pitter-patter...
Before Darryl could breathe a sigh of relief, he footsteps from outside the prison door. The
footsteps were very light. Then, the prison door was pushed ajar. A charming figure forced
in through the small gap quickly.
'F*ck! Did Grady send someone to kill me?'
Darryl was startled, and he quickly looked to the door. He felt relieved when he saw the
newcomer.
The person was wearing the knight's armor, and she had exquisite features and charming
curves. Besides that, she appeared to be heroic and righteous. It was Thea.
"Thea, why are you here?" Darryl asked in surprise.
Thea did not answer but walked forward and checked out Darryl's wounds. Then, she
scolded him. "Darryl, why wouldn' t you listen to my advice during the day? You insisted
on going against the Mayor and those prominent families! How can you possibly be their

Thea looked upset when she told Darryl off, but one could see how worried she was
through her eyes.
Phew!
Darryl breathed a sigh of relief and smiled bitterly. " Did you take the risk to come here
just to tell me off? Have you fallen for me?"
Thea blushed instantly, she said, "shut up and quit joking! You almost died!" Then, she
quickly helped Darryl remove the iron fetters.
"The prison is low on guards now. I will escort you away from Pearl city. Don't come back
here again!" Thea said solemnly.
Darryl felt warm and moved, but he could not help asking, "You want to let me go?"
Sigh!
Thea sighed; her eyes reflected her complex mood. "I investigated Maverick's subordinate,
Amos, yesterday. Grady bribed him, but I don't have enough evidence to press charges. I
believe that you were slandered!"
Then, Thea changed her tone. "The Mayor is very close with the McClaren family and the
other families. It is really unwise of you to go against them today. I'm letting you go
tonight. Not because I like you, but for justice! Understand?"
Darryl was quiet after listening to Thea. He admired Thea for her righteousness.
Even though Thea, the female knight, was not very powerful in terms of strength, she was
exceptional with her strong sense of justice.
Darryl asked emotionally, "What will happen to you after you let me go?"
Thea smiled. "Don't worry! No one saw me come in here. Time is running out. Let's go
quickly!"
After that, Thea left the prison with Darryl.
The Pearl City prison was not huge, so they could move around pretty fast. Soon, Darryl
and Thea arrived at the gate of the city.
What?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDarryl stopped in his tracks when he was about to leave the city!
He felt a faint movement somewhere outside the city gate!
Thea asked curiously when she saw him stop abruptly, "What's wrong? Don't you want to
leave now?"
After that, she followed Darryl's gaze, and she was shocked!
She could see many people standing quietly, waiting by the roadside outside the city gate.
The leader was dressed in a gorgeous robe, and he had a gloomy look on his face. It was
Seth, the Mayor!
"Thea!"
Seth’s eyes fell on Thea, and he growled, "I thought it was strange that you wouldn't let
me kill Darryl during the day. It seems like I was right to think that you and Darryl are
quite close!"
Then, Seth shouted, "Thea, you let go of the prisoner on your own accord. How shall I
punish you?"
Oops!
Thea's lovely face paled; she was flustered.
She did not think that Seth would suspect her.
Darryl stood by the side. He seemed calm and composed, but he was also panicking.
