The news of the Watts family's overnight downfall spread throughout Shenford, and countless people rejoiced. Shenford had finally rid itself of this malignant tumor.
In the following two days, the Salvage family took over several key businesses of the Watts family. During this time, the head of the Salvage family personally led the core members to visit Billy and expressed their heartfelt gratitude. Undoubtedly, the biggest beneficiary of this incident was the Salvage family, as they transformed into the number one powerhouse in Shenford overnight.
For the next two days, Billy didn't do anything else; he dedicated his time to accompany Harleen to and from work.
On the morning of the third day, Harleen Knight, on behalf of the SunPark Group, officially signed a cooperation agreement with the Salvage Group, and the project was officially underway.
"Dear, congratulations!" Billy looked at Harleenwith a smile when they returned to the hotel room.
"This is all thanks to your efforts, my love!" Harleen looked deeply into Billy's eyes. "Thank you, Billy!"
With this project secured, the burden on her shoulders had finally eased. With the support of this major project, her reputation within the company would rise invisibly.
"I just did what was necessary," Billy said, smiling as he pulled her into his arms and kissed her gently on her forehead. "What are your plans now?"
"For this project, Simona will handle everything on behalf of the Salvage family. Since she wasn't involved in the initial stages, I might have to stay here for a few more days before returning," Harleen replied.
She looked up at Billy and continued, "Don't worry about me. If you have other matters to attend to, go ahead. I'll be fine."
"Okay," Billy nodded. "I do have some things to take care of in the capital."
"The capital?" Harleen was momentarily surprised and somewhat concerned. "Is it something very important? Could it be dangerous?"
"It's not a big deal, and there won't be any danger."
"I don't believe you!" Harleen pouted. "You're just saying that to keep me from worrying. I have a feeling that whenever you say it's not a big deal, it's actually quite significant!"
"I promise it's a minor matter. You have nothing to worry about."
"Whether it's a big or small matter, please stay safe."
"I will." Billy said before giving Harleen a kiss.
"Don't overexert yourself, and after you're done, come back home. Both of us won't be there, Tasha will miss us."
"Okay." Harleen nodded.
After having lunch, Billy, accompanied by Stout and Azure Fang, boarded a plane bound for the capital.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the three of them walked out of the airport.
"Boss!" Just as they reached the exit, a group of four people approached, consisting of Night Orchid, Frostblade, Judge, and Soul Chaser.
With Azure Fang by Billy's side, the "Five Sharp Blades" of SHADOW were all present.
"How did you guys get here?" Billy asked with a slight surprise, then turned to Stout. "Did you inform them?"
In fact, he had an answer - he knew it was Stout's doing. Only Stout and Azure Fang knew about his trip to the capital, and given Azure Fang's personality, he wouldn't go against Billy's orders, so it had to be Stout.
"Boss, don't blame me for this!" Stout shook his head vigorously, like a rattle. "The day before yesterday, I was bored and called Judge to chat. He asked me how things were going in Shenford, and I said everything was resolved."
