Chapter 627: Eat You Alive
At Cha Mansion
"Where is father?" Harry hissed at their housekeeper Meng. He was out early to buy the favorite bread of his father but he was utterly surprised to see that the old man was not in his room.
"He went out with Master Daryl," Meng whispered, readying herself for a scolding. She was the head servant of the Cha mansion ever since Daryl was young and way before the passing away of Daryl's mother.
She remained in the house due to Master Marius' begging for Daryl's sake who lost his mother. When Daryl left, she too wanted to leave but Daryl pleaded with her to stay back and look after his father in his absence.
She sighed remembering how sad she felt in this huge mansion without Daryl being around, but a ray of hope and light of happiness seemed to be coming back because Daryl would soon return. Master Marius was exhilarated and had even tasked her to decorate Daryl's room all over again, since his wife would also move here with him very soon.
There would definitely be chaos in the mansion once that happened and she wondered how the elder master would take care of it in this condition of his.
"Didn't you even bother to ask where they had gone? Didn't Daryl know that it's best for his father to stay at home in his condition? What if his headache attacks him?! I told you to inform me or my mother first if anything unusual happens in the house! Why can't you just follow simple instructions huh?! " Harry screamed with flaring nostrils.
Meng sighed and whispered, "Master Marius said it's okay, since he was going out with his son whom he had been missing for so long."
Harry no longer commented and with a clenched fist left the housekeeper who was always getting on his and his mother's nerves. Meng only listened to his father and no one else in the house. Now Daryl would be back in the mansion and the horn of this old hag would surely grow longer.
He sighed as he dialed his father's number. His mother was not back home but if she found out that father went out without her knowing, she would surely get mad so he must bring father back before his mother got back home.
"What's with him getting so worked up when the master is with his real son! I'm sure our Daryl will take better care of master Jack than you two!" Meng snorted with a crumpled face. She could not wait for their real young master to return back home.
She turned around and smiled followed by an excited whistling. She had a lot to put her focus on and most important of them all was to make sure that the room for Master Daryl and his wife to be would be decorated and furnished for a newlywed couple, as soon as possible. She just hoped that master Daryl married a woman with strong character, someone who could not be easily bullied by madame Karen.
Anyhow, what was important now was the young master's return… the real young Master, and not that Harry who was acting like one arrogantly, when he did not even share the same blood of the elder master!
Meanwhile, at Chua mansion, everyone invited to the wedding was having a hearty dinner including Daryl's father who insisted to join and said that he was feeling great and confirmed that he could still join everyone for dinner.
Kenzie immediately performed her daughter-in-law's duty and never left Daryl's father alone and assisted the old man with whatever things he needed.
"I guess your father was not aware of your stepbrother and my earlier talks regarding Kenzie and him as a possible arrangement for marriage?" Jack commented as he proudly stared at his daughter who was taking good care of her father-in-law at another table.
Daryl who was sitting beside him answered, "Yes, I think Harry was acting on his own about that matter. Knowing him, he would not have told my dad unless everything was finalized. He hates being embarrassed so he always makes sure of things first before announcing to everyone."
"Hmm, I see. So what is your plan now?" Jack asked.
"I plan to go and live with my father at first along with Kenzie if she likes, then we both will look after you while you recuperate after the surgery…" Daryl commented because Kenzie and her father decided that it would be best for Kenzie's father to stay in the hospital for full recovery since Yang Global hospital had everything, and a patient would feel like they were home.
"Oh good. I hope even if Kenzie and you will both be very busy with each other's works… Well make sure you two spend time at night working hard for making babies," Jack shamelessly reminded with a grin, making Dary's face blushed so hard.
Then he added, "You and Kenzie can sleep here in her room while your room at Cha mansion is being prepared for the time being. Your father seems to be exhausted already… I think you should take him back home soon after dinner."
Daryl nodded and excused himself to approach his father.
"Oh… I wanted to stay for a bit more," Daryl's father murmured with an apologetic look when Daryl said that he would drive him back home.
"I will handle uncle. You stay here and have fun," Liam interrupted as soon as he was beside Daryl.
"Oh thank you, Liam. Please take care of me now and let's not disturb the newlyweds at all." Marius answered with a smile. Kenzie hugged her father-in-law and whispered, "We will visit you tomorrow father, and live with you soon."
Daryl creased his forehead hearing Kenzie's words.
"Oh, such a good daughter-in-law. I'm so excited thinking that you both are about to move in with me soon. I will inform Daryl as soon as your room is ready…"
Daryl with Kenzie walked his father up to Liam's car and when the car left, Daryl looked at Kenzie and said, "Are you sure about living at Cha mansion?"
Kenzie smiled and replied, "Of course. How could I say NO to my father-in-law. He brought it up as soon as I sat down with him I guess, he's so bored having only your stepmother and stepbrother inside the house."
Kenzie's eyebrows lifted up as she stared at Daryl and beamed, "What? You don't want to sleep with me in the same room? Are you afraid that I will eat you alive?"
She did not bother to wait for his answer and turned around to walk back to the garden as she naughtily mumbled, "I guess you should be afraid… Because I actually plan on eating you alive on the first-ever opportunity I get…"
