Read The Ultimate Husband [by Skykissing wolf] Chapter 22 – A few ladies started to speculate, some
said that Mister Darby was a middle-aged man with a slight stubble.
Some said that Mister Darby was tall and handsome. Every possibility was speculated.
Finally, Grandmother Lyndon waved her hand and halted the discussions.
It was then Felix brought a few men in and glanced around, but there was no sight of Darryl.
“I’ll leave the birthday present here then, I’ll be going,“ said Felix as he bowed slightly.
Grandmother Lyndon felt uneasy and nodded her head profusely, even returning a bow as a sign of
respect.
After Felix left, his present was opened up. This time, it shocked them even more!
It was a deed!
‘Here’s to many years of birthdays and success. On your esteemed birthday, I present to you a special
gift: Southem wood Villa, No. A88’
D**d silence! The whole hall was pin-drop silent!
If a needle were to drop at that moment, it could be heard!
This… This… A villa as a birthday gift!?
It was not just an ordinary villa, it was a Southernwood Villa! It was located within Donghai City’s top
community of villas! Within the Southernwood Villa community, three villas were the most expensive:
A66, A88, and App. These three villas were sold for at least 10 million bucks each!

A88 was the most expensive amongst the three. It was located at the center of the community, with its
private swimming pool, backyard, mini zoo, and mini aquarium!
It was Grandmother Lyndon’s birthday, and Felix
had gifted this villa! This…
Only one person did not have a shocked expression on her face. This person was Lily.
Lily had a clear hatred for that piece of trash Darryl, but ever since he left, she found herself inexplicably
thinking about him.
Lily took out her cellphone, and could not help but to send Darryl a text message.
“Lily: Where are you?”
Very soon, Darryl replied. “Darryl: Home, I’m packing up. Leaving tonight.”
Upon reading the reply, Lily felt an unexplainable feeling of unease in her heart.
Darryl was a piece of trash; she should feel better if he left.
Lily bit her lip tightly, and strangely enough, texted a reply to him. [Lily: Wait for rue, I’m coming back
now.]
Maybe she wanted to see him for one last time?
After all, they were married for three years. Even if it were a dog, some feelings would develop,
moreover a human?
“Mom, I’m going out for a while,” said Lily softly as she left the villa.
Everyone had yet to snap out of their shock. They were still dazed by Wayne and Felix’s gifts and did not
notice that Lily had left.
Only Ashton followed Lily out quickly.
Lily drove and stopped by the main entrance. Just as she got out of the car, she saw Ashton running
toward her.
“Lily bud, why did you leave suddenly?” Ashton asked. “Granny is going to agree to our wedding after the
banquet, let’s head back quickly.”
“You go on ahead,” said Lily as she hastily walked toward the residential community.
“Lily bud!” Ashton shouted as he grabbed Lily’s wrist suddenly. He had seen the contents of the message
that Lily had sent Darryl!
“Are you going to meet that piece of trash?” Ashton took a deep breath, his eyes a little red. “What good
is that piece of trash, since he wants to leave then let him leave! Why do you want to look for him? Come
back with me!”
Ashton’s heart was anxious. He knew very well that Wang Xizhi’s Ping’an Tie that he had given was a
high-quality replica. Grandmother Lyndon would engage a professional appraiser to evaluate the scroll
after the banquet is over, and when that happens, wouldn’t the truth be revealed?
Now that Ashton was left with nothing, all he wanted was to sleep with this goddess once! As long as
Grandmother Lyndon agreed to the marriage, he can then justify having Lily over to his house without
any security camera monitoring! It was that moment when Ashton planned to do something with Lily’s
drink Wouldn’t then the goddess be at his mercy?
On that thought, Ashton touched his pocket where he kept a packet of sedative powder. The powder
would dissolve instantly in water, just one sip was enough to render a person feeling weak

“No!” Ashton exclaimed. “Let’s quickly head back, see if Granny agrees to our marriage.”
The two of them were arguing when a Land Rover stopped near them. Samantha stepped out of the car
in her high heels.
“Ashton, Lily bud, what are you guys doing?” asked Samantha hurriedly. “Come back quickly, Granny is
about to announce your marriage in a bit.”
“I want to meet Darryl one last time; I’m not going back! I’m not going back no matter what you say!” Lily
answered as she bit her lip tightly.
Ashton’s gaze darted back and forth between Samantha and Lily and he had a wicked glee in his eyes.
“Auntie, let me get you something to drink,” Ashton offered.
Ashton went to a milk tea shop and bought two cups of milk tea, which he secretly placed the sedative
powder into both cups.
Samantha was dragging Lily back when she saw Ashton approaching them with two cups of milk tea,
and smiled upon that sight.
The weather was hot, and they both drank the tea offered. Samantha laughed saying;” Lily bud, go back
quickly and await Granny’s announcement of your marriage. Look at Ashton, how caring of him to get us
milk teas during such hot weather.”
As she was finishing her words, Samantha felt her body weakening, as if she could not keep herself
balanced.
Lily felt the same way, her hands shivered, and she dropped her cup of milk tea.
