Chapter 4833
Fueled by his anger, Gerald could not help but shout indignantly at Darryl," You shameless
traitor, Derrick Darby! Old Master Stanford has always been kind to you. How dare you
turn around and help these bandits at a time like this?" "We should have broken your legs
when we found you just now."
Selina trembled with anger as she called out to Old Master Stanford." Father! I'd rather die
than marry a traitorous bastard like him! Cancel the wedding tomorrow..."
Old Master Stanford was also furious. His daughter's words made his vision dark at the
edges, making him almost pass out.
He had failed, well and truly. He had thought that seeking Derrick to marry his daughter
would bring her luck, only to find out that he was not noble in the slightest. The slightest
threat from the bandits had made him fold almost instantly.
How was Old Master Stanford going to give an explanation to his ancestors for that when
he passed on?
Darryl sighed at the jeers of the Stanfords as there was nothing he could do or say in
response.
Herod grew frustrated, striding over to slap Gerald several times as he roared,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Motherf*cker! You're really something. How are you still this loud when you're tied up at
my mercy? One more sound from you, and I'll cut your tongue off!"
As he spoke, Herod cast a furious glare across the room. "Shut your mouths, all of you!"
Whew!
All at once, the crowd fell silent as no one dared to utter another word.
Gerald did not dare to shout anymore either. His chest throbbed in indignance. F*ck, why
was it him that kept getting beaten up...
Seeing everyone fall silent, Herod was plenty satisfied. He cast a grin in
Darryl's direction. "Young man! Do you really know where the treasure is?"
Apparently, the treasure of the Stanfords was worth a fortune. If he were to get his hands
on it, he and his fellow bandits would be set for a good few years.
Darryl plastered on a smile, nodding vigorously. "I don't exactly know where it is, but I
know which room it's in. Come with me. I'll take you there!"
Darryl's expression was heartfelt as he spoke, but his eyes were smug.
Darryl had no idea where the treasure was. He was just trying to buy time to find a chance
to save the Stanfords from Herod and his men.
"Haha! Very well!"
Herod had no clue what Darryl was up to as he blissfully nodded. Then, he waved a hand
to his men.
"Stay here to watch over them, the few of you. The rest can come with me."
As the words rang through the air, he had Darryl lead the way out of the grand hall at top
speed.
Whew!
The Stanfords were getting riled up.
"Derrick Darby!”
Selina's face was flushed crimson with fury as she roared at Darryl, "Have you thought of
the consequences of teaming up with these bandits? I'm telling you, if you help them now,
I'm not going to let this go in the future."
Her voice was frail, but she did not stutter one bit.
Uhh...
At the threat, Darryl could do nothing but smile bitterly as he did not say anything in
response, walking out of the grand hall.
"Tsk tsk!"
Upon going outside, Herod chuckled mockingly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I can't lie. I was pretty envious of you back there. You're a special kind of lucky, marrying
into the Stanfords and enjoying the privilege of that beauty every night. From what I see,
you're a nobody in the Stanford family. If you really do find us the treasure, I'll let you
return to the Snow Wolf Mountain with us.
"You seem bright enough. It's settled. You'll be my assistant. I guarantee you'll have
nothing but a life of luxury ahead of you."
Herod was in a pretty good mood then. With the help of Stanford's future son-in-law, that
treasure was his for sure.
Darryl forced out a smile, putting on an expression of great gratitude.
"Thank you for your kindness! It's my honor to be able to return to the Snow Wolf
Mountain with you. To be honest, I never wanted to be the Stanfords' son-in-law. Selina
looks weak, but she's a fierce woman..." "Haha!"
Herod broke out into laughter once again. As they spoke, Darryl led Herod and his men
into the backyard.
It was late into the night, and Darryl did not know where he was going at all. All he could
do was bring them to the one place he knew.
Darryl was not without his smarts. He had observed the layout of the place as he brought
Herod and his men around.
