Chapter 3418
Angeline's exquisite face was filled with panic. "Sister, I was the one who forced him to sneak me out of the
palace today. He had nothing to do with it. Please do not punish him." she was pleading with her eyes. She would
not let him be thrown into jail when he was the one who saved her from the dragon.
Darryl knelt on the ground and pretended to be scared. "Your Majesty, please forgive me." If it were possible, he
wished he did not have to kneel, but he had to do it for the sake of the Holy Jade Scripture.
The Queen raised an eyebrow at the sight of Angeline begging for mercy on behalf of Darryl. "Angeline, you
should know better than that."

sneaked you out of the palace." Her voice was low and majestic. She would not let
Angeline convince her to go off her usual style of reward and punishment.
Angeline panicked even more. "Sister, if you really want to punish someone, punish
Dennis instead! He's the worst!" At the mention of Dennis' name, she started to tremble
with anger. That shameless b*stard deserted her!
"What does all this have to do with Dennis?" the Queen asked with surprise.
"It's like that, Sister..." Angeline walked forward and held the Queen's arm. she told her
everything in detail about what had happened that day. Nearing the end, she could not
even keep the anger out of her voice. "He swore he would protect me, but when the
dragon appeared, he ran off with his men, leaving Darren and me to the dragon. If it were
not for Darren's knowledge of the beast's language, we wouldn't be standing in front of
you now."
At that, the Queen's beautiful face became cold. "Very well, I understand now. I will
interrogate Dennis tomorrow." Then she turned toward Darryl, she said, "You may leave."
"Thankyou, Your Majesty!" Darryl said quickly. He breathed a sigh of relief and looked at
Angeline with eyes full of gratitude. Even though Angeline only wanted to have fun, she
came to his rescue in the nick of time. He quickly exited the room.

was brave and protected me the whole day. Why don't you let him be my personal guard?"
The Queen rolled her eyes at Angeline. "I should be punishing you for sneaking out of the palace! We'll talk about
him being your personal guard at another time." She thought Darryl's talent would be wasted as Angeline's
personal guard.
Angeline's face fell with disappointment.
Meanwhile, Darryl was already back in his room. His mood was at its worst for having wasted so much time with
Angeline and receiving a scolding from the Queen. It took him a long time to finally fall asleep.
The next day, he woke up very early in the morning. A maid knocked on his door and said, "Darren, the Queen
has summoned you to the main hall. You better get there quickly." Then, she left.
