The Ultimate Husband

(w ] +15 BONUS Chapter 5731 Just then, William felt his mind blank out as his knees gave out, and he fell to ~ the ground.

He had thought that this unkempt man was no more than an imbecile of a human trafficker and had never guessed that he had turned out to be Darryl Darby.

Everyone else went silent in disbelief as well.

The shop owner collapsed onto the ground, staring at Darryl in a daze as her mind buzzed blankly.

Crap... she had wrongly accused the great Darryl Darby. What was going to happen to her? Well...

Rachelle stopped short at the crowd's response as well, unable to return to her senses for a long time as she stared at Darryl in disbelief.

() +15 BONUS She could clearly sense that the crowd was practically trembling in Darryl's presence, their expressions nothing but respectful.

Darryl was nothing more than a shameless pervert... but it turns out that he was a pretty powerful person in the Nine Continents...

"Brother Darryl!" William came to his senses at last, wiping at the sweat on his brow as he said in a careful tone to Darryl, "It's my fault for not knowing who you were. It's all my fault..." As he spoke, William turned to shout at his wife, the shop owner, "Couldn't you tell he's Darryl Darby? How dare you call him a human trafficker? Have you lost your mind?" Darryl had risked his life for the Nine Continents countless times as well as protected Donghai City, and could be considered the guardian angel of the I N ine Continents... and she had just id

(L) +15 BONUS mistook him for a human trafficker.

If his sergeant were to find out, he'd be fired for sure.

The shop owner's face paled as she apologized to Darryl endlessly. "I'm so sorry, Brother Darryl. My deepest apologies..." Despite Darryl not being at Donghai City a lot, it was still his hometown, as well as where the Elysium Gate had been established. On top of that, Darryl had protected Donghai City so many times that his position here was unshakeable.

More importantly, he was the shop owner's idol.

All at once, the shop owner was both regretful and terrified. She wanted nothing more than to hide in a hole.

Just then, everyone returned to their senses as they began to lecture the shop owner themselves.

"How could you just accuse him like y

(L) +15 BONUS that without any proof?" "Shame on you for doing business here and not even recognizing Brother Darryl..." Everyone chimed in with angry words of their own, seeming to have forgotten that they were part of the hubbub when the shop owner had been accusing Darryl.

The shop owner began to tremble, her face draining of color.

This was bad...

If the Elysium Gate were to find fault in this, her husband losing his job would be the least of their problem.

She might lose her shop altogether and even go to jail.

"That's enough, that's enough..." Darryl waved a hand at the crowd with a smile on his face. "That's no problem. Now that everything's settled, we shouldn't blame them any further." i?

TY (L) +15 BONUS As he spoke, Darryl looked at the shop owner. "You did the right thing. It's important to stand by justice and have the courage to stand up to acts you find suspicious. That was the right thing to do." Oh? The shop owner stood rooted to the ground, both joyous and touched.

Yet Benedict had not calmed down from his anger yet, and said to Darryl, "These two nearly destroyed your reputation, Brother Darryl. Are you just going to let them go like this?" As he spoke, Benedict could not help but glower at the shop owner. Darryl had just returned from abroad only to be accused like this so soon, and this sort of behavior was an insult to the Elysium Gate.

Whew...

Everyone else fell silent at Benedict's words, not daring to say anything.

(%] +15 BONUS The shop owner began to tremble as well, unspeakably nervous.

Darryl frowned, turning to look at Benedict. "This was all a misunderstanding. There's no need to hold on to it. The Elysium Gate was founded to protect our homeland and maintain safety. What difference would there be between us and the bandits we strive to capture if we take revenge over petty things like this?" As he spoke, Darryl's tone was solemn and heavy. ""You must always remember to prioritize the citizens in all situations. Got it?" His voice was not loud but left no room for retaliation.

Uhh...

Benedict's expression was nothing but remorseful in the face of Darryl's lectures as he hung his head meekly. " You're absolutely right, Brother Darryl. I was too rash." be I.
