It had been a long time since he had a good meal during the period of navigating the sea.
At that time, the Empress frowned and ordered impatiently, “Darryl! We’re done eating. Clean the table quickly!”
She was the Empress, and her daughter was the Princess; they were royalty. It was natural that Darryl should be
the one to do the chores.
“Alright!” Darryl nodded and did not complain. After spending many days with them, he had gotten used to the
Empress’s bossy attitude.
“Dear, let me help you!”
When she saw that, Yvette walked over immediately to help Darryl clear the cutleries and bowls.

with me here!” Although her tone was not loud, it was firm.
Yvette was frustrated, but she could not disobey her, so she could only walk over to the Empress.
At that moment, the sound of light footsteps was heard from outside. Next, a slim figure walked in.
The person was dressed in a long white dress, but it could not hide their exquisite figure. She was smiling sweetly
and looked attractive.
It was Donna Bush, his Senior Sister.
When she saw Darryl cleaning the table, Donna could not help but cover her mouth and laughed.
‘Junior Brother is a really hard-working and good man. Whoever marries him is blessed.’
Darryl was stunned and could not help but ask, “Senior Sister? Why are you here?”
Donna nodded and greeted the Empress and Yvette before she smiled and said, “Junior Brother, do you remember

Donna’s eyes were full of anticipation when she said that.
Everyone wanted to learn the mimic technique to attract the Gourami Dragonfish.
Darryl scratched his head and was silent.
‘Senior Sister is here to look for me to teach the mimic technique at night. Is that appropriate?’
“He’s not free!”
Just when Darryl was thinking about it, the Empress could not help answer in a firm tone, “Miss Donna, it is late; you
can look for him tomorrow. He will need to prepare me for bed later.”

Although she did not like Darryl, for such a beautiful woman to be so close to Darryl, the Empress sensed the risk

She had always been living in the palace, and eunuchs or palace maids handled all her chores. Under the stressful
situation, she did not think further and said it immediately.
Donna was stunned at that moment. ‘The son-in-law needs to help the mother-in-law to bed? What custom is that?
It’s a little weird.’
‘Sh*t!’ Darryl was not sure if he wanted to laugh or cry; he was embarrassed.
‘The Empress is worried that senior Sister will replace her daughter’s position and hence said that. But that is so
inappropriate.’
Yvette, who was standing at the side, was blushing.
The Empress knew that she had said the wrong thing when she saw their expressions. She blushed and bit her lips
before she said softly, “I-I meant that the day is late and we should rest…”
