Chapter 166 Someone Looking for Trouble

"Wow! Ms Knight, your husband is so handsome!" Ava Jones exclaimed with an exaggerated expression.

"He's really too handsome, even more than those big stars. He's the most handsome man I've ever seen!"

Harleen chuckled and said, "Isn't that a bit too much?"

Afterwards, she turned to everyone and said, "Colleagues, let me formally introduce my husband Billy Gardner."

Then she turned to Billy and said, "Honey, these are all my colleagues who are at the manager level or above in the marketing department. Let me introduce you to them."

She then proceeded to introduce each colleague one by one to Billy who smiled and greeted each of them with a nod. Everyone couldn't help but feel slightly restrained not only because of Billy's striking good looks but also because of his hidden regal aura that made them feel inferior. Their first thought was that Harleen's husband was definitely not an ordinary person.

"Mr Gardner," Ava Jones asked after they were seated together,"what kind of work do you do?"

"I serve in the military," Billy replied with a smile.

"Oh! So you're a soldier!" Ava Jones sounded relieved as she continued,"No wonder you have such an aura!"

After pausing for a moment, she continued asking, "So you must be an officer, right?"

Before this moment, she had always been curious about what kind of man could capture her boss's heart. And every time Harleen mentioned her husband, a sense of happiness and pride would involuntarily appear on her face. Now that she had seen Billy in person, she could understand Harleen's reaction.

To be able to marry such an outstanding man, any woman would feel proud!

"Barely!" Billy laughed again.

"I knew it. I could tell just by looking at you that you're not an ordinary person!" Ava Jones looked at Billy with an admiring gaze.

"Mr Gardner, can you tell us some stories about the military? Many people in our department admire soldiers!" Another beautiful colleague looked at Billy with shining eyes and said.

"Sure!" After nodding his head with a smile, Billy picked out some interesting anecdotes from the camp and started chatting with everyone.

Soon enough, food and drinks were served on the table.

"Ms Knight, congratulations on your promotion. Let's raise a toast to you and Mr Gardner!" After the waiter poured red wine for everyone, Ava Jones stood up holding her glass.

"Congratulations, Ms Knight!" Everyone raised their glasses one after another.

"Thank you all for your support and help in my work! I am confident that as long as we work together diligently, we will definitely exceed this year's sales target. By the end of this year let's double everyone's bonuses and commissions so next year we can give everyone a raise!"

"Yeah! Thank you, Ms Knight!" Everyone was overjoyed and shouted together in unison.

Billy felt happy for Harleen too. He could see from their gazes that these people weren't just being enthusiastic towards Harleen because of her position but rather they genuinely respected and appreciated her from within.

As Harleen had only been with the company for a short time, it was impressive how quickly she had established such a high reputation and personal charm within her department. Once everyone was seated, they began to eat. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

During the meal, everyone scrambled to toast Billy and Harleen. However, due to her inability to handle alcohol well, Harleen passed this task onto Billy. Billy naturally accepted the challenge and quickly became friends with everyone at the table. He hadn't relaxed so thoroughly in quite some time and enjoyed having a good drink without any worries or responsibilities.

Although he occasionally drank with Azure Dragon and his team back in the West, it never felt quite like this. No matter how much he drank there, he always kept his mind clear because anything reported at his level was not trivial; therefore, he never allowed himself any slack. However, here in this moment, everything felt different; he could drink freely without any concerns.

Time flew by quickly as two hours passed before anyone realized that they were all full of food and drink. Suddenly, there was a loud bang as someone kicked open the door of their private room followed by two young men who looked like wealthy playboys walking in uninvited.

"Is it you guys? What do you want?" One of their beautiful female colleagues sitting near the door shouted angrily upon seeing them enter.

"Oh wow! There are so many beautiful ladies here!" The two playboys scanned around before their eyes lit up when they saw Harleen. They couldn't help but be impressed by her beauty.

"Who are you guys? This is our private room! Please leave immediately!" Ava Jones stood up and spoke sternly towards them.

"If you don't want to get beaten up, you better sit down and mind your own business. Otherwise, you'll find out what happens when you stick your nose where it doesn't belong!" The tall man glanced over at Ava Jones.

"Hannah, do you know them? Who are they?" Harleen asked her beautiful colleague.

"I don't know them!" Hannah Hill replied angrily.

"I ran into them in the restroom earlier with two other guys. One of them intentionally bumped into me and his hands were all over the place."

"I pushed him hard and he fell to the ground. Then he accused me of bumping into him and demanded that I apologize to him in their private room while serving drinks."

"I refused and ran away when he was distracted by a phone call. But I didn't expect that they would follow me here."

"Bitch! You bumped into our VIP guest but still have the nerve to argue with us? You really don't know any better!" The tall man scolded coldly.

"You guys are liars! He was the one who bumped into me first!" Hannah Hill's face turned red with anger.

"If you keep talking back, I'll make sure you never speak again." The short man pointed his finger at Hannah Hill threateningly.

"Listen up! Go apologize to our VIP guest right now or suffer the consequences!"

"We don't welcome troublemakers like you here! Leave now or face the consequences," Harleen spoke sternly with a frown on her face as she understood what had happened. These men were attracted to Hannah Hill's beauty and wanted something from her group of friends.

"Well well well, aren't we feisty?" The tall man turned his head towards Harleen. "You must be their leader, right? If you want us gone so badly, why not come along with us instead? Our VIP guest will surely appreciate it more!"

"You're such jerks! If you don't leave now we'll call the cops!" Ava Jones shouted loudly from beside them.

"You stinky bitch, how dare you interrupt? I think you're asking for trouble!" The tall man shouted loudly and raised his hand to slap Ava Jones in the face.

"If you dare touch her, you'll lose your hand!" Billy's voice rang out.
