Chapter 4840
Darryl kept a straight face and said to Gerald, "So what if I hit you?" "You're just a butler of
the Stanford family, and I am their son-in-law and Miss Stanford's husband. Based on
status, I’m considered your Master, and you're just a servant. As a servant, you've insulted
me time and time again. Shouldn't I teach you a lesson?
"As a butler, you're supposed to protect the safety of everyone in the Stanford family, but
you allowed Herod and the mountain bandits into the house, and they even tied Old
Master Stanford up, causing him so much mistreatment at such an old age. Don't you
think I should hit you for being so useless?"
He spoke loudly and clearly.
"I..."
Gerald was stunned and stared blankly at Darryl. His face was red, and he was at a loss for
words.
The people around were also stunned. The ancestral hall was in pin-drop silence. At that
moment, everyone was utterly shocked.
"Is this really Derrick, the useless yes-man?" "Derrick, how dare you..."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFinally, Gerald gathered his thoughts and pointed at Darryl, wanting to say something.
However, Old Master Stanford interrupted him after saying a few words.
Old Master Stanford's face changed at that moment, and he yelled," Gerald! You've
become more and more audacious. Derrick is right. He's the son-in-law of the Stanford
family, and he's your Master. How could you be so disrespectful toward him?’ "From now
on, you must be respectful to Derrick. You heard me? If you dare to be presumptuous
again, I'll never forgive you!"
Immediately, Gerald became nervous and quickly nodded. “Yes, Old Master!"
At that moment, Gerald was aggrieved.
"D*mn it. I'm so unlucky tonight. First, I was robbed by the mountain bandits, then Derrick
stuffed my mouth with a rag, and he even slapped me a few times. After all of that, Old
Master Stanford didn't even take my side.'
Old Master Stanford ordered his subordinates and said, "The few of you! Go and inform the
bailiff in town. Tell them that Herod brought the mountain bandits of the Snow Wolf
Mountain to rob the Stanford family, and they've all been trapped!" "Yes!" A few of them
answered and rushed to inform the bailiff.
Soon, the bailiff hurried over and brought Herod and the mountain bandits away. Peace
had also been restored in the Stanford family.
After telling everyone to take some rest, Old Master Stanford then looked at Darryl deep in
the eyes and said, "Derrick, you've done well tonight.
Quickly get some rest now. Tomorrow is your wedding day, and you have to attend a
parade in the morning." "Parade?"
Darryl was initially stunned, but after asking further, he found out that it was not to
parade the criminals to the public.
Instead, it was a local custom. As a live-in son-in-law and an orphan, Derrick had to follow
the ceremony of escorting the bride on the wedding day and go to a parade around the
Hidden Dragon Town in a sedan chair.
It was to let the neighbors know that the eldest daughter of the Stanford family had
"married" a live-in son-in-law.
Due to that custom, men would completely lose their dignity. When the Stanford family
recruited a son-in-law, almost no one came. In the end, Old Master Stanford had no choice
but to choose Derrick, the gambler.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDarryl felt helpless after learning that he had to go to a parade.
"F*ck! I have to sit on the sedan chair and go to a parade? That's so embarrassing!
Thankfully I'm in A Whole New World. If Chester and Dax found out about this, I bet they’ll
make fun of me!" i
Out of frustration, Darryl wanted to sneak out of the house before the dawn broke.
However, because of the robbery by Herod that had just happened, Old Master Stanford
had enhanced the vigilance, and each exit was guarded. As Darryl's divine power was
completely restricted, he had no chance to escape.
Darryl had no choice but to return to his room to rest and continued trying to release the
power of divine power.
Unconsciously, the sky had turned bright.
Suddenly, the servant, Sheniqua, called out to Derrick from outside. ‘Hey! Quickly get up,
get changed into your groom's outfit, and get ready to go on the parade." "F*ck! So early
in the morning?' Darryl muttered to himself as he opened his eyes and looked at the sky
outside.
Then, Sheniqua left, and a set of red groom's outfits was left at the door.
At that moment, Darryl sighed to himself and forced a smile.
"Yesterday's bet with Selina was just an impulsive act. I never thought that I would
become a son-in-law of the Stanford family a few hours later."
