Chapter 4832
As the final word rang through the air, Herod's gaze glinted coldly.
Indeed, he planned to call upon a massacre tonight. Besides, the Stanfords did not care
about their good-for-nothing son-in-law. He would be the first to die.
Darryl's clothes were torn open to reveal his chest. One of the Snow Wolf Mountain
members drew his long sword, walking forward briskly.
'F*ck me!’
At the sight, Darryl got the fright of his life. His forehead beaded with sweat as he called
out, "Please hold on, everyone. You've got the wrong man. I'm not the Stanfords' son-in-
law."
As his words rang through the air, everyone, including Old Master Stanford and the
surrounding Stanford members, began yelling as they could hardly contain their fury.
'Derrick' was truly something else, still spouting such nonsense at this point.
What was even more infuriating was that Selina had already been captured, and as her
fiance, he did not only not bother thinking of a way to save her. Instead, he tried his best
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto point out that they had nothing to do with each other. That behavior made him no less
than an animal!
Amidst their fury, the butler Gerald could not help but yell at Darryl, "You bastard! The Old
Master has always been good to you, and he even paid off your debts on top of making
you his son-in-law. This is how you repay him? You're an animal."
Even Selina's features were creased with disdain as she stood across him.
What a cowardly gambling addict of a man. Marrying him would imply nothing but a
lifetime of unhappiness.
Haha...
In contrast, Herod exchanged a glance with his subordinates, smiles appearing on their
faces.
Herod was particularly smug. He scoffed at Darryl, ' What did you say, young man? You
aren't the son-in-law of the Standford family?” "Indeed!" Darryl nodded seriously.
Herod's smirk grew. "I'm certain you only said that to save your life, man. There's no need
to worry. Since you've been living in this household all this time, you must be pretty
familiar with the place. Am I right?”
Herod was positive that he was Derrick, which made Darryl feel nothing but helpless and
at a loss on how to further explain himself. All he could do was smile bitterly.
Herod walked over slowly. He slowly approached Darryl and asked seriously, "Young man!
What's going on here? You know we're after the treasure and not any of your lives, right?
All you have to do is get us the treasure, and I'll let you and the rest of the Stanfords go.
How's that?"
Herod had a smile on his face as he spoke, but his gaze glinted evilly.
As long as the young man in front of him gave away anything, Herod would follow through
with his end of the bargain.
Whew...
Just then, the hall was completely silent. Everyone, including Old Master Stanford and the
rest of the servants, held their breaths, staring intently at Darryl as they waited for a
response.
"I..."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDarryl opened his mouth, but he was helpless. 'I told you I wasn't Derrick in the first place
and that I was just passing by! How would I know where this Stanford treasure was?'
Judging by the look on Herod's face, Darryl knew that the consequences would be dire if
he did not do what Herod wanted.
Oh, right...
Amidst his helplessness, a plan seemed to come to Darryl's mind. He nodded. "Alright!"
Haha...
Seeing him fall for the bait, Herod beamed brightly as he reached out a hand to pat
Darryl's shoulder in a falsely gentle manner. "Not bad. You're a pretty decent guy.”
As he spoke, he had his men untie Darryl.
On the other hand, Old Master Stanford and the rest of the Stanfords could hardly contain
their anger.
Derrick had gone too far, did he not? Succumbing to the bandits so soon?
He chose to help the bandits. There was not a single ounce of nobleness in his body.
He was truly the disgrace of the Stanford family.
