Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

Billy never expected things to be so coincidental, it was actually about the contract for the Ozin Tower. For him, not to mention a three-year contract, even a three-hundred-year contract would be no problem.

“What’ are you? Do you have any say here?” Beatrice spoke angrily again.

“Beatrice, are you deaf or stupid? Didn’t you hear my sister say he’s my brother-in-law?” Felicia responded loudly. Then she looked at Zeph and said, “Grandpa, my brother-in-law is asking you something. Can you give him a definite answer?”

In fact, Felicia had no idea whether Billy could get the contract for the Ozin Tower or not. However, she couldn’t explain why she had inexplicable confidence in Billy.

“Of course!” Zeph responded after taking a sip of tea. “As long as you can get the three-year contract for Ozin Tower, I will not only fulfill my previous promise but also make up for twenty percent of dividends from these years.”

For him personally speaking, twenty percent of shares were nothing if they could get their products into Ozin Tower. The company brand would have qualitative leap and in the long run bring more benefits than just twenty percent of shares. Moreover, the money discounted from the 20% shares could be decided by some financial manipulation.

After taking another sip of tea, Zeph continued, “However, there must be a deadline. We cannot wait decades before getting this contract.”

“That’s great! Let’s settle it like that then. I hope that when the time comes, you won’t regret it!” Billy continued speaking, “It doesn’t need decades, give us one day. Prepare yourselves to sign the contract by tomorrow evening.”

A wave of laughter echoed through the banquet hall, everyone staring at Billy mockingly.

“Damn, can’t you at least make a draft before bragging? One day to get the contract to Ozin Tower?! Why don’t you just tell everyone that Ozin is yours.”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Felicia, who had initially had some confidence in Billy, couldn’t help but turn her head away. Now she thought this brother-in-law was too unreliable and embarrassing.

“Billy, stop messing around!” Fletcher said with a furrowed brow. Sharon next to him probably didn’t have the energy to scold anymore after being too impulsive earlier. She gave Billy another glance but didn’t shout anymore.

“I know what I’m doing.” Billy reassured Fletcher with a calm look.

“Grandpa, don’t worry. Dad said he could do it so he will. Dad is a hero and always keeps his promises.” Tasha’s childish voice rang out.

“Tasha is such a good girl! Dad promised you and I’ll make it.” Billy kissed Tasha on the forehead.

“In one day?” Gilbert Guerrero next to Beatrice sneered and spoke up, “You really are something else! Do you know how difficult it is to enter Ozin Tower?”

“Who are you?” Billy asked with a hint of disinterest. “The Knight family is discussing business, why do you have so much to say?”

“Gilbert is my boyfriend, why can’t he speak!” Beatrice snorted coldly.

“Hmm, a good name.” Billy smirked. “You seem like someone important, introduce yourself?”

“Gilbert is the eldest son of the Guerrero family, who possesses Guerrero Jewelry, the largest jewelry company in Ozin!” Beatrice spoke proudly.

“And just yesterday, Guerrero Jewelry successfully obtained a one-year contract for Ozin Tower!”

“Oh! Impressive.” Billy chuckled lightly.

Gilbert continued speaking. “If you can get us into Ozin Tower within a day, I’ll call you father!”

“Hey, don’t bother calling me father.” Billy smirked again. “You should hurry back and talk to your connections in Ozin Tower. Make sure your own contract doesn’t get voided or else you’ll be in trouble.”

“Are you an idiot? Our contract has already taken effect!” Gilbert snorted again.

“Effective contracts can be voided. Worst case scenario would be that Ozin Tower will compensate for breach of contract.” Billy continued, “Let’s go to a better restaurant, Mr and Mrs Knight.”

Sharon rolled her eyes at him once more before turning around and walking towards the door. Although she didn’t believe Billy could get the contract for Ozin Tower, she didn’t want to stay here and suffer anymore.

“Sharon, wait for me.” Fletcher hurried to catch up.

Five minutes later, the family got in the car and Billy stepped on the gas pedal.

“Billy, can you be not full of crap next time?” Felicia pouted as soon as they drove off.

“Full of crap? Who told you that’s crap?” Billy responded calmly. “You’ll see tomorrow if it’s crap or not.”

“You jerk! Shut up already! You’re still bragging!” Sharon couldn’t hold it in any longer. “You probably don’t even know where Ozin Tower is located. And you’re shouting about getting a three-year contract within a day. Why didn’t tell them you can fly into sky by yourself? We could have fought for 10% of the shares with them before. Now it’s all gone! And after today’s scene, they’ll probably take back Harleen’s job at Cloud City tomorrow! Are you satisfied now!?”

“Grandma, please don’t say that about Dad. Dad said he can make it…” Tasha cried with a sobbing voice. “Dad won’t lie; he will do what he said…”

“Don’t cry anymore, it’s so annoying!” Sharon shouted loudly.

Tasha cried even harder now.

“Mom, can you keep your voice down? Don’t scare Tasha!” Harleen also had an unpleasant expression on his face. As she spoke, she gave Billy a glare. She had hoped that having Billy with her would make Tasha feel safer. But now, not only Tasha, but all of them adults included, felt completely unsafe.
