Chapter 311 Someone's Making Trouble

"Darling!"

It was midday, and as Billy walked out of the airport, he spotted an attractive figure approaching briskly-it was Harleen. Before boarding his flight to Ozin, Billy had called Harleen to check if she was still in Shenford, and she had informed him that she had returned to Ozin three days ago.

Knowing that Billy was returning to Ozin, Harleen had insisted on picking him up at the airport herself, telling him not to bother Judge with it.

"Thank you for coming, my dear." Billy greeted her with a smile, embracing her slender waist as they headed towards the car.

"Harleen, did you miss me, you came here to pick me up?" Billy teased.

"Don't flatter yourself. I'm here for an inspection to see if you've been hanging out with any beautiful ladies." Harleen replied, leaning into Billy's embrace with a playful expression.

"Haha, you're really that worried about me?" Billy kissed her gently on the forehead.

"Of course!" Harleen said with a hint of coyness. "Is that wrong?"

"No! You're right." Billy chuckled in response.

"Then, you have to be honest. Have you had meals alone with any beautiful women in the capital?" Harleen continued her questioning.

"Absolutely not!" Billy shook his head, smiling.

"Humph! I'll believe you when pigs fly," Harleen pouted. "But have you missed me during this time?"

"That's a given!" Billy smiled. "I dream about my wife every day."

"Hehe, it sounds fake, but I like hearing it!" Harleen giggled.

"It's true!" Billy responded with a smile.

Before long, the two of them were in the car.

"Honey, are you hungry? Shall we go grab some lunch?" Harleen suggested.

"Sure!" Billy agreed, stepping on the gas pedal.

An hour later, they arrived at a high-end Western restaurant and took their seats.

"Darling, I have something to show you," Harleen said excitedly after ordering their food. She took out a small pillbox from her handbag and handed it to Billy.

"What's this?" Billy asked, taking it with a faint smile.

"Can you guess?" Harleen's mood was upbeat.

"Could it be the finished product of Stout's skincare formula?" Billy took a sniff and smiled again.

"Correct!" Harleen exclaimed with excitement. "Honey, do you know how amazing this product is?" Without waiting for Billy's response, she continued enthusiastically, "It's true, just as Stout said. This cream combines three functions, hemostasis, scar removal, and skincare, and the results are remarkable! I had it compared with similar products on the market, and there's absolutely no competition. I believe it will become a bestseller once it's launched!"

"Really? Congratulations, my wife!" Billy asked, watching her excitement with joy.

"Thank you, darling!" Harleen smiled. "I've already discussed this with Mr Hines. I plan to establish a new company under the group to specialize in this product. This way, we can have clear ownership, and I can reserve some shares for Stout."

"Did Mr Hines agree to it?" Billy asked with a smile.

"Yes!" Harleen nodded vigorously. "He fully supports my idea and encouraged me to go ahead. He even offered me a share in the new company, but I declined." Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Why didn't you accept?"

"I didn't want to take credit for something that isn't mine. Besides, Mr Hines is already paying me a generous salary. I'm content with that." Harleen explained.

"Mr Hines is lucky to have you as a professional manager." Billy said, smiling. In reality, Derek had discussed this matter with him over the phone a few days ago.

Moreover, Derek had another idea - to transfer all of World Group's shares in SunPark Group to Harleen for free. He had drawn up the transfer agreement and stamped it with his seal. All Billy needed to do was agree, and he would send the agreement for Harleen to sign.

Billy understood Derek's intentions, but he hadn't given him a reply yet. It wasn't that he didn't want to accept such a generous gift; the money he had earned for Derek in the recent deals was enough to buy several SunPark Groups. He was just concerned that Harleen might find it too sudden and overwhelming. So, he wanted to give her some time to think it over.

"Thank you, dear, for the compliment." Harleen responded with a playful tongue poke. "By the way, honey, I took half a day off this afternoon. After lunch, will you accompany me shopping? I want to buy a few sets of clothes for you and Tasha." Harleen suggested.

"Haha, sure!" Billy agreed with a smile. "You can buy clothes for yourself and Tasha, I don't need any."

"No way!" Harleen objected. "I've been wanting to buy you clothes for a long time. I just didn't find the right opportunity. Today, you must listen to me."

"Alright, alright," Billy acquiesced with a chuckle.

The two continued chatting for a while before their food arrived. They enjoyed their meal, and once they had settled the bill, Harleen's phone rang. "Ava, what's going on?" Harleen answered the call.

"Ms Knight, there's an issue at Ozin Tower, and I'm on my way there now." Ava's voice came through the phone.

"What's happening?"

"According to the colleagues there, representatives from Oshi Cosmetics are demanding that we relocate their counter to a better spot in the mall. They claim that the current location is too small and unsatisfactory." Ava explained, sounding slightly annoyed.

"Oshi Cosmetics?"

"Yes, it's the headquarters' representatives."

"I see. You go ahead. I'll be there soon." Harleen said before ending the call.

"Wife, is something wrong?" Billy asked.

"There's an issue at Ozin Tower." Harleen informed him. "Darling, I'll drop you off at home first, and then I'll go check it out."

"Why don't I go with you?" Billy suggested with a smile.

"You don't have to. You just got back, and you must be tired. Go home and rest. I'll be back after I'm done." Harleen replied.

"It's okay. I'm not tired at all. I'll come with you." Billy insisted, holding her hand as they walked toward the parking lot.

Along the way, Harleen briefly explained the situation to Billy.

Oshi Cosmetics was an international top-tier brand with only a few counters in major cities in Glavale. As Ozin Tower was the most upscale shopping center in the city, the presence of international top-tier brands not only increased foot traffic but also significantly boosted the mall's prestige. So, when Ozin Tower negotiated with Oshi Cosmetics to have them open a counter, it had expended considerable effort. In the end, they had made several concessions to seal the deal. But now, there was trouble brewing.

Half an hour later, Billy parked the car outside Ozin Tower.

"Ms Knight, Mr Gardner!" As they stepped out of the car, Ava approached them.

"What's the situation now?" Harleen asked.

"They are being quite assertive. They've threatened to terminate the contract and demand compensation if we don't move their counter to a prime location." Ava reported with a hint of frustration. "Let's go take a look." Harleen said with a furrowed brow.
