Darryl had decided that, no matter what happened, he would not let Donoghue go that day. However, he could not
do it himself. He was worried he would injure Debra by accident. He was too powerful, and the consequences would
be dire if he were to hurt Debra.
This was the reason Darryl let Brad and the others fight instead. The only condition he had was that Debra must not
be harmed. When he saw her get hurt, his heart ached. Without hesitation, he ordered his people to retreat
immediately.
At that moment, Brad and the thousands of Westrington soldiers paused, but none of them retreated.
Brad looked worried as he shouted, âYour Majesty! Donoghue is extremely sly. If we let him go, it will be tough to
capture him again.â
He knew Darryl stopped the army because he was worried about Debraâs safety, but the safety of a woman was
nothing compared to capturing Donoghue. As the Emperor, Darryl was the most important person in the world; why
would he worry about not finding a woman for him. Releasing Donoghue was a far bigger threat to his future.
Donoghue had the Sky Breaking Axe, and that cannot be taken lightly.
At that moment, Darrylâs eyes were blood-red as he roared, âShut up! I told you to retreat; are you all deaf? You
want to disobey my orders? Retreat. All of you retreat!â
Darrylâs eyes were staring closely at Donoghue, feeling frustrated.
However, he had no choice. If they continued to battle, Debra would get hurt. This was the woman he loved; he
would not let that happen.
âDonât be angry, Your Majesty. We will retreat!â Brad shivered when he felt Darrylâs rage. He retreated immediately,
and at the same time, 10,000 of the Black Rider Army also left.
At that moment, Brad still did not know that Darryl cared more about Debraâs safety even though Donoghue was
important.
Sigh!
When he saw that, Donoghue was relieved. A smile appeared on his weak face.
He thought that Darryl would ignore Debraâs safety and would insist on capturing him no matter what. He did not
expect Darryl would release him.
âDarryl, Darryl. You care too much about your woman and relationship. You are not cut for anything big.â
Debraâs body trembled, and her mind full of doubt.
âThis Darryl is letting Junior Brother, and I leave? Everyone said he was devious and horrible, but I feel he is not as
terrible as I heard.â
While Debra was still in deep thought, Donoghue said softly, âSenior Sister! Thank you, Senior Sister, for risking your
life to save me. It seems like Darryl likes you very much. He ordered his army to retreat as he was worried you
might be harmed.â
Donoghue was sly. Under such circumstances, he still did not forget to criticize Darryl in front of Debra.
When she heard that, Debra blushed instantly. The nice thoughts she had for Darryl earlier vanished instantly.
âDarryl did that just to get to me? Such a deviant person; how good could he be?â
Debra looked at Darryl and could not hide her disgust and anger. âDarryl, if you think by releasing us, I will like you,
you are so wrong. I will never lay eyes on a person like you.â
Then, she held Donoghue and said softly, âJunior Brother, letâs go.â
âAlright!â Donoghue replied.
