The Empress kept a straight face even when she saw Darryl and Yvette entered the cabin. She rebuked annoyingly,
“Who told you to come in here? Don’t you know you have to announce yourselves before you come in? Such
waywardness.”
F*ck!
It looked like the Empress really did think of the place as her palace. How could they possibly get someone to
announce their arrival before they went into the cabin on a fishing boat?
Darryl felt depressed, but he did not say anything.
“Mother Empress!”
Yvette felt helpless. She walked forward and held the Empress’s arm. Then, she said playfully, “Don’t pick on Darryl,
okay? We’re here to take refuge, not a vacation. Don’t be so hard with the rules, alright?”
Suddenly, Yvette’s face turned red, and her voice went soft as she continued to plead with her mother.

Yvette’s voice was very soft when she said the last sentence so that only the two of them could hear it.
Even though Darryl was her man, she was embarrassed and did not want him to hear what she had said.
The Empress’s expression eased a little after that, but she still complained. “You may have admitted that he is your
Prince Consort, but I haven’t acknowledged him as my son-in-law.”
“Very well!”
Yvette looked docile as she spoke softly, “Mother Empress, don’t be mad at the Scope brothers, no matter what
they have done to anger you. They won’t be coming onto this boat anymore. From now on, only Darryl and I will be
with you, alright?”
Yvette did not feel as anxious when she said that.
She knew her mother well. The Empress was domineering and pompous in front of other people, but she loved
Yvette dearly. As long as her daughter was not excessively demanding, the Empress would always agree with her
requests.
“Very well!”
The Empress smiled and helped Yvette fix her fringe. “He can stay, but when we are resting, he has to go onto the
deck.”
The Empress peered at Darryl. She had made up her mind, so there was no room for discussion.
She thought it was inappropriate to have a man there while she rested. She was an Empress, after all.
“Mother Empress!”
Yvette was anxious, and she stomped her feet. “The sea breeze is too strong on the deck! How can Darryl have a
good rest there when he is still injured?”
The Empress did not respond; she would not budge.
F*ck!
Darryl was utterly speechless. He was baffled.

Nonetheless, Darryl’s expression softened; he would compromise as he thought that Yvette had suffered too much.
He nodded with a wry smile. “Okay, then I will go to the deck and rest!”
Then, Darryl turned and prepared to leave the room.
Rumble…
Just as he was about to walk out onto the deck, he heard a deafening thunder. Then, the sky turned dark with thick
clouds.
A gust of strong wind had started to blow from the calm sea!
Yvette and the Empress, who were still in the cabin, were startled.
Darryl sighed deeply. He looked up at the dark clouds helplessly.
F*ck! Why was the weather so impermanent? How could it change without any warning?
Whoosh!
Darryl complained discreetly when it suddenly poured with stormy wind and waves. The boat rocked violently!
Darryl went to the door and peeked outside. He gasped!
Large waves as high as 50 meters had appeared across the ocean! They were as tall as small hills!
The storm would be upon them soon!
