The War God's Homecoming novel Chapter 255

Chapter 255 Rogue Husband

Billy didn't have a very good impression of Audrey Ryan; she seemed overly self-assured and he wasn't interested in getting involved with such a woman. However, the Ryan family, on the whole, was decent, so allowing them to participate in the Doman family's business acquisitions was a chance he decided to give them.

"I see!" Derek responded.

"Alright, let's disperse!" Billy put down his teacup and said, "Casey, go on your date. Azure Dragon, return to your post. Judge, investigate the members of the Doman family. Stout and I are heading back to Ozin."

"Oh, and Casey, tell Felicia that if she doesn't want to intern at her current company, she can directly join the World Group."

"Fine!" Casey's mouth twitched once again. He had a feeling that Billy was trying to arrange his marriage. In truth, he had a favorable impression of Felicia Knight. Not only was she stunningly beautiful, but her personality was also exactly the type he liked. Yet, his mind wasn't focused on these matters right now. There were some special circumstances that made it hard for him to wholeheartedly pursue a romantic relationship.

Billy's phone rang after he and Stout got into the car. He answered, and it was Rose's call.

"Mr Gardner, are you still in Enssea?" Rose's voice came through as soon as the call connected.

"Is something the matter?" Billy asked.

"Do you have some free time tonight? I'd like to invite you to dinner."

"Let's skip the dinner. I'll come to Enssea next time, as I'm already on my way back to Ozin." Billy replied.

"Oh, alright then." Rose's tone carried a hint of disappointment.

After a brief pause, she continued, "Mr Gardner, thank you. Thank you for giving me this opportunity."

"It's what you deserve," Billy replied. "However, don't forget what you promised me. Next time I visit, I hope to see a clean Enssea!"

"Please rest assured, Mr Gardner. I won't let you down!" Rose responded earnestly.

"Alright." Billy nodded. "That's it then. If you need anything, just give me a call."

"Okay!" Rose said, "Thank you once again, Mr Gardner!"

...

"Husband, you're awake?"

At 7:30 AM that morning, as soon as Billy opened his eyes, he saw Harleen Knight gazing at him affectionately.

"Honey, why are you up so early? You only just fell asleep." Billy said, embracing his beloved and giving her a kiss.

"Don't act innocent. You always keep me up all night with your antics." Harleen Knight pouted, a blush tinting her face.

"It's hard to control yourself, huh?" Billy chuckled. "Honey, it's still early. You should go back to sleep. Look at the dark circles under your eyes."

"Oh, stop it. You're definitely plotting something," Harleen gave him a skeptical side-eye. After a slight pause, she continued, "Honey, when you were in Enssea this time, did that Miss Ryan invite you to dinner or anything?"

Billy shook his head quickly. "I wouldn't have a meal alone with another woman while my wife isn't around."

"Is that so?" Harleen smiled and looked at him with meaningful eyes. "I heard that you met another beauty in Enssea this time."

"Uh…" Billy's face turned dark. "Did Felicia tell you like that?"

"She told me nothing. Are you not planning to be honest with me?" Harleen asked, a hint of amusement in her tone.

"I haven't had a chance to tell you yet," Billy replied. "She's the owner of a restaurant. I just asked for a small favor."

"Is that so? I heard she's the number one beauty in Enssea. Is she very charming?"
