My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire novel Chapter 286

286 Blame Keera

At this moment, Cindy was in the office coquettishly complaining to Howard about her grievances. “I just want to live in a villa, and your son wants to be born in one too.”

Howard said, “Okay, I’ll go back and discuss it with her again.”

Cindy blinked and said, “Yeah, you should go back and discuss it with her. After all, she’s the owner of the

villa! The villa is under her name.”

She knew exactly how to infuriate Howard.

As expected, these words immediately provoked him, and Howard retorted. “Hers? That’s mine! I’m the head of the household! Haven’t you seen that I call the shots with everything at the company? Tonight, you’re coming home with me, and you’ll settle down in the villa with peace of mind!”

Seeing his reaction, Cindy quickly said, “Wouldn’t your wife be unhappy and kick us out? Didn’t she kick me

out last time?”

“She wouldn’t dare!”

Howard lifted his chin defiantly.

It was at this moment that someone knocked on the office door and entered, handing him the letter. “Mr. Smith, someone just delivered this! They say we haven’t submitted the research and development proposal on time, and Davis Corporation has sued us! They’re demanding we compensate them twenty million according to the contract!”

“What?!”

Cindy let out a shocked exclamation, looking incredulously at the indictment.

Howard dismissed it with a wave of his hand. “It must

be a mistake on their part. Mary is so good to Keera.

How could they sue us!”

He looked at his secretary, “But on the R&D

department’s end, the proposal wasn’t submitted on time, was it?”

The secretary immediately replied, “Mr. Smith, our core staff member in the R&D department was poached last month. He came to you asking for a raise,

which you refuged and you quan told him to not out

But he hadn’t expected things to turn out like this.

Howard immediately said, “Don’t panic. I’m calling Mary right now.”

After saying this, he took out his phone and dialed Mary’s number.

Mary answered quickly, and Howard immediately explained the situation before adding, “Do you think there’s some misunderstanding here? Or maybe you can give us another month’s extension. We’ve just hired new tech staff, and we’ll definitely be able to produce the proposal for you!”

He thought that would settle everything.

After all, with so many joint projects with Davis Corporation, no one would focus on such a small one. They were steadily receiving R&D funds, and not producing results wouldn’t be a big deal…

But to his surprise, Mary actually bellowed at him. “Howard! You have the nerve to call me?! Do you

realize that because of this incident, I also suffered at the company? My great-uncle was already displeased with my joining the corporation over my cousin, and now he’s using this as leverage to fire me! Now that my own position is at risk, I don’t have the capacity to help you any longer! You’re on your own!”

With that statement, Mary hung up.

Howard was stunned.
