Part 1: The Ultimate Husband Storyline
Darryl was a live-in son in law. Despite his efforts to gain everyone’s affection, his wife’s family despised him, along with his beloved spouse. Everyone treated him like a servant, calling him names and reminding him that he is good for nothing.
Lily, the man’s wife was soaking her feet along with her two best friends, chatting about the financial struggle that her company was facing while Darryl lingered around, listening to their talk.
After three years of marriage, he still hadn’t touched his wife once. He slept on the floor, cleaned the house, cooked and ran errands for everyone but they still despised and berated him.
Even more, the man was also physically abused at the slightest error. One time, he dared to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night and unwillingly woke up his wife, who immediately slapped him for disturbing her sleep.
Truth be told, Darryl was no poor man, he was the second eldest son of the Darby clan, but he was disowned after spending eight million dollars of the family fortune to purchase shares in a company called Southeast Petroleum.
He had no other choice then, he had to become a live-in son in law. No one knew his background though, not even his wife.
As Darryl was attending his wife and her friends, his phone started ringing. Reading the message, the man was startled. It seemed that his former family was begging him to help them as all the members were struggling financially. He seemed to be their only hope.
The message also hinted that the shares that he had acquired in the past have increased in value exponentially. Checking his account balance, Darryl learned that he was rich, but he couldn’t say anything yet.
Meeting his grandfather, the man agreed to help the family with the money they needed, provided that they meet his two conditions. The first one was that they needed to obtain an expensive pair of shoes that Lily always wanted and secondly, they needed to hand over Platinum Corporation.
Lily’s family always wanted to do business with Platinum Corporation, so this was Darryl’s chance to prove himself with his wife’s relatives.
Samantha, Lily’s mother, wasted no time in convincing Lily to let go of Darryl and choose Ashton as her new husband. After all, for all she knew Ashton was a prominent son of a wealthy family, thus Lily would be well cared for, not to mention the fact that their financial problems would be over.
Despite his wife’s cold attitude, Darryl loved her and was willing to endure any humiliation coming from her family. One night though, they cornered the man, threatening to beat him. Without any support coming from Lily, he left the house.
Over the next few days, he watched as Samantha tried to push Lily in Ashton’s arms, thus Darryl decided to cut of the man’s financial aid. After all, all Ashton’s money were coming from the Darby clan.
Now penniless, Ashton was rebuked by Samantha in a second. Lily started missing her husband and even invited him to go back home, but Darryl had other plans now. Before he could reveal his true origins and financial potential, he needed to teach his in-laws a lesson and gain Lily’s heart.
Will they make up once the truth comes out? Will Darryl be able to forgive and forget all her wrong-doings?

The Ultimate Husband Chapter 22
There were a great deal of speculations regarding Mr Darby. Some people believed that he was a middle-aged man, while others believed that he was a handsome young man, who was shy.
Ever since Darryl had left, Lily couldn’t seem to stop thinking about him. She took her phone out and sent him a text to ask him how he was doing. He immediately replied that he was packing his stuff for leaving.
Feeling a pang in her heart, Lily wanted to meet Darryl one last time. She headed towards the door, when Ashton stopped her. He wanted the girl to know that her grandmother was going to announce their engagement at the end of the evening, so she should better be present when that happens.
Ashton soon realized that Lily was going to see her husband and got anxious. He got two cups of milk tea, put sedatives into them and handed them to Lily and Samantha. Soon, the two women started feeling sleepy.
