"Stop? It's impossible." The strength of Peter’s hands tightened, and Kathy couldn't even make a
sound.
Billy slightly tightened his fist, still looking at Peter calmly.
"Conditions? Who are you to make a deal with me?"
"You don't like her? And what if I kill her!" The viciousness in Billy's eyes surfaced.
Kathy tightly bit her lip. She was now weak as if she was about to lose her footing.
"What do you want me to do?" Billy asked coldly.
"I know that your Hilton family has been in politics for a long time, HY Group is now being asked to
completely move to Africa. If you can speak to people from the top and revoke this decision, I'll let
Kathy go."
Billy narrowed his eyes. Peter really investigated the Hilton family thoroughly.
Although the Hilton family was apparently in business now, they actually had more power in the political
world behind the scenes.
Kathy tried to open her eyes and shook her head towards Billy, he absolutely couldn't agree to this, he
couldn't let Peter have his way...
But now, Billy seemed to be shaken. Looking at Kathy’s pale face, he pursed his thin lips and said
sternly, "I can help you."
Peter was obviously surprised. He didn't think he would actually succeed. He repeatedly confirmed,
"You're not lying to me, are you?"
"You let go of Kathy first, I'll call right away." Peter frowned suspiciously, the intensity slowly loosened
up a bit.
Kathy coughed violently, almost about to fall, she glared angrily at Peter, "You're a scumbag, you know
nothing but using women!"
Thinking about how she had been kidnapped repeatedly by Peter, Kathy was now full of anger.
When he was unaware, she stepped on Peter's foot mercilessly and pushed him away. When she ran
outside, Billy hugged her in his arms.
The fear in Peter's eyes flickered, wanting to grab Kathy again, but it was obviously impossible. Billy
kicked him away and shielded Kathy behind him.
"Billy, you call immediately! You promised me!" Peter was anxious.
Billy sneered, "Yes? What did I just say? I forgot."
"You... Billy, if you go back on your word, I'll expose your relationship with Kathy!" Peter trembled as he
pointed at Billy.
"What is my relationship with Kathy? Go ahead and expose." Billy ignored him and took Kathy outside.
Kathy tried to push him away, but Billy's strength was so strong that she couldn't struggle.
Billy’s bodyguards were outside, alongside Herbert.
Looking at this intimate gesture of Billy and Kathy, she secretly clasped her palm, her face quickly
calmed down as she came over to grab Billy's arm, "Are you okay?"
Billy shook his head and ordered the bodyguards to arrest Peter.
"Billy, you let go." Kathy frowned.
Billy bit his lips. He didn't seem to care about Herbert beside him. Instead, he moved closer to Kathy's
face, "Kathy, I saved you again, how do you repay me?"
Kathy's mouth twitched, and said in a deep voice, "You could have just stood by and watched."
The last thing she wanted was to owe Billy another favour, so she hadn't wanted him to interfere just
now.
"I couldn’t bear to." Billy suddenly picked up her chin, his tone was ambiguous.
Herbert's eyes shot over, and Kathy was unhappy as she raised her knee for a kick before Billy had to
let go of her hand.
"Billy, today is our engagement wedding." Herbert reminded in a gentle tone while grabbing Billy's arm.
"Mm." The irritation in Billy's eyes flickered away. He gazed at Kathy before he turned around.
Her face was indifferent and she never looked at him again.
Walking out of the building, Kathy found Mrs. Hilton, Jennifer Booth, at the lawn of the viewing
ceremony. She had a delicate bun on her head. A pure white ancient-style cheongsam set off her
elegance. Although she was an aged woman, she was well-mannered and looked a lot younger.
"Mrs. Hilton, hello, I'm Kathy." Kathy took the initiative to step forward.
Jennifer turned around and saw Kathy, smiling warmly, "You are Angela's daughter? Quickly come sit
down beside me, sorry for not being a good host."
"Madam, this is my mother's engagement gift to Mr. Hilton, please accept it." Kathy handed over the gift
box.
Jennifer handed it to the maid and observed Kathy from top to bottom, "You have turned so big, I
remember when you were little, you almost couldn't survive the first month, your mother was so worried
then."
Kathy paused, not expecting Jennifer to know about that year's events. It seemed that she did indeed
have a good friendship with her mother.
"Back then, Angela and I wanted to set you up with Billy, but I didn't expect you to get married in the
blink of an eye. Haish, I was too late." It was obvious that Jennifer liked Kathy pretty much.
Kathy smiled, "Mr. Hilton will also have his own happiness."
Jennifer sighed helplessly, "Their marriage was forced and not true love. I can see that he was very
reluctant, but in the end, he still agreed to it, even I was surprised."
The Hilton family didn't even need to use marriage to enhance the family's power anymore, but since
they were going to acquire the Herbert’s group, and Herbert’s family had proposed the marriage. Billy
was late in getting married. That was why he decided to take the marriage.
Kathy was a little surprised. Remembering those ambiguous words of Billy just now, she sank her face
unhappily.
Billy and Herbert exchanged engagement rings and announced in public that they would be formally
married next year.
Herbert leaned into Billy's arms with a shy face and tiptoed, but Billy did not kiss her and left soon after
the ceremony.
Jennifer came over to stop Billy. She was a little angry, "There will be a toast later. Where are you
going!"
"There's still a problem to deal with, Mom, so help me entertain Kathy properly first." Billy’s eyes fell
towards Kathy.
Kathy dodged, her expressions were slightly cold.
Jennifer looked at the two of them, clearly noticing that their relationship was... not ordinary.
She knew Billy’s temper best, although he seemed to be a bit flirtatious. He wouldn't take a second
glance at other women, but now he was even looking at Kathy all the time.
Even at the engagement ceremony just now, Billy had been looking in her direction, and beside her
was Kathy.
"Kathy, do you still contact Billy after your blind date?" Jennifer couldn't help but ask.
Kathy looked stiff and confessed, "Mr. Hilton saved me from danger twice. I'm grateful to him, that's all."
Jennifer smiled, but her tone was somewhat sceptical, "That kid is really warm-hearted."
At this time, outside the manor, a black car slowly stopped.
Joseph was sitting in the back seat, and John was in the front, reporting to him what had just
happened.
"Peter is now in Billy's hands."
Joseph squinted his eyes gloomily. His aura was cold like ice.
"He wants to ask Billy for help, unless he has the chip, but Billy has always been against me, so I
wouldn't rule out the fact that he might be stepping in to help Peter."
"Mr. Joseph, the notice has been given from the people above. HY Group must move to Africa, but if
the Hilton family makes a move, I'm also worried..."
In the world of politics, it was always in the dominance of the Hilton family.
"If Billy insisted on going his own way, I don't mind letting him taste the pain of that year again." Joseph
hooked up his thin lips and smiled cold-heartedly.
