Chapter 287 The End of the Watts Family

Billy's lips twitched as he said, "Let's wait until you're less busy with work, and I'll teach you."

He suspected that Harleen had been influenced by something, and her sudden desire to learn martial arts would likely fade over time. "Really? You promised, so no backing out!" Harleen extended her pinky finger. "Pinky swear!"

"Haha..." Billy extended his finger and said, "Wife, can't you trust me a little?"

"Pinky swear means you're bound for a hundred years, no changing your mind!" Harleen wiggled her finger and said to herself.

"Darling, have you been stimulated by something today?" After releasing their pinky swear, Billy asked Harleen with a smile.

"Billy, is Azure Fang from SHADOW, too? Are you the head of SHADOW?" Harleen didn't respond to Billy's previous question but asked somewhat tentatively. "Well..." Billy hesitated for a moment. "You could say that."

"But I just hold a nominal position. Most of the day-to-day affairs are handled by Azure Fang and the others. I only step in when there are particularly tricky situations." "Ah? So, you really are the head of SHADOW?" Harleen exclaimed in surprise after getting Billy's confirmation.

"Uh... Why such a big reaction?" Billy raised an eyebrow.

"Do you think I don't know what SHADOW is? It's a law enforcement agency one level above most other departments. You..." Harleen paused, looking astonished.

"Dear, no matter what I do, in our home, I'm just your husband and Tasha's father. I have no other identity." Billy interrupted her, simultaneously reaching out to caress Harleen's delicate cheek. "Honey, I feel like I'm not worthy of you, the gap between us is too..." Harleen sounded upset.

"Didn't you promise me not to say such things anymore?" Billy responded, pretending to be annoyed. "If you keep this up, your husband won't pay any attention to you."

"I..." Harleen took a deep breath and tried to speak again. However, she was cut off when Billy lowered his head and kissed her.

"I was talking about something important..." After a few minutes, Harleen began to blush, and although she was murmuring, her words were unclear.

"This is important!" Billy chuckled. He picked up his beloved wife and carried her to the bedroom.

The next morning at 7 o'clock, Billy woke up and saw Harleen gazing at him affectionately by the bed. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Darling, what's up?" Billy smiled.

"I didn't do anything, just wanted to see you." Harleen smiled sweetly.

"Why are you up so early after staying up so late last night? You should rest a bit more." Billy smiled again.

"You're one to talk. You kept me up almost all night." Harleen blushed slightly. "Come on, get up, dear. I've already had breakfast delivered to the room." "Sure!" Billy rolled out of bed.

In no time, they both freshened up and sat down at the dining table.

"Billy, is everything sorted out on your end? Are we heading back today?" Harleen asked as she served him a scrambled egg.

"I still have some matters to attend to." Billy sipped his milk and took a bite of toast. "You might not be able to go back today either."

"What do you mean?"

"Your company's project hasn't been finalized yet, you want to go back so soon?" Billy smiled.

"Our company won't continue working on that project. Collaborating with a company like the Watts will only lead to more trouble even if we manage to sign the contract this time." Harleen said with a touch of disappointment.

This was the first major project she had taken charge of since becoming the president, and she had thought it would be smooth sailing. However, it had turned into such a mess.

"If Simona Salvage were to handle that project, would you be willing to collaborate?" Billy asked, compromising.

"What... What do you mean?" Harleen was surprised. "If it were Simona in charge, there would be no problem. But..."

"That's settled, then!" Billy interrupted her. "You and Ava can handle some preparations today, and I promise you'll be able to sign the contract tomorrow."

After today, the Watts family would likely withdraw from Shenford. As one of the four major families in this city, the Salvage family would have no problems taking over some of the Watts family's businesses. "What about the Watts family?" Harleen's tone started to become excited. From what she knew of Billy, he wasn't someone who would casually make promises. If he said this, there was a high likelihood of it coming true.

"After today, it's likely there won't be a Watts family in Shenford anymore," Billy said with a faint smile.

"Have they committed some crime?"

"Yes." Billy nodded. "A heinous one. They must be severely punished."

"Really? Thank you, darling!" Harleen was overjoyed.

"So, how do you plan to thank me?" Billy raised an eyebrow, teasing.

"You pervert!" Harleen rolled her eyes at him. "Finish your breakfast. Afterward, you can get busy with your work, and I'll go to the company with Ava."

"Yes, my lady!" Billy responded with a smile.

An hour later, Billy and Stout arrived at the SHADOW base.

"Boss!"

Azure Fang led a group of people to greet them, and Simona Salvage was among them.

Billy nodded at everyone and then turned to Simona. "Ms Salvage, you don't need to go." "Commander Gardner, I want to..."

"I have another task for you." Billy interrupted her.

"Please instruct me, Commander Gardner." Simona replied solemnly.

"Go back and ask your family if they're interested in the Watts family's assets."

"What... What do you mean?" Simona asked, taken aback.

"Salvage, you should thank Commander Gardner!" Orson Baker immediately spoke up. "He wants to give you a big gift!"

"Ah?" Simona's intelligence was above average, and she quickly understood the situation. She hurriedly bowed. "Thank you, Commander!"

"Don't mention it." Billy smiled again. After a brief pause, he turned to Azure Fang and said, "Let's go, to the Watts family."

"Yes!" Everyone nodded.

The Watts family's compound was located in the southern part of Shenford, covering an area of nearly 100, 000 square meters and showcasing the power of the top aristocratic family.

An hour later, Billy and his team arrived at the Watts family's compound.

"Commander!" The SHADOW soldiers guarding the entrance of the compound shouted in unison.

"How was the situation last night?" Billy asked Toby Jackson, the deputy SHADOW inspector in Shenford.

"Commander, following your instructions, there has been no one leaving the Watts family's compound from yesterday until now." Toby Jackson replied loudly. "At 6 AM this morning, a commercial vehicle attempted to enter the compound, and I allowed it to pass."

"Very good!" Billy narrowed his eyes.

It seemed that the Watts family still held some weight in the eyes of the capital's aristocracy, as they had sent someone.

"Let's go in!" Billy waved his hand.
