Slumdog Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 196

Chapter 196 I Will Try to Fight Against Him

At the Maddox’s house in Washington.

Eddie’s room was on the first floor.

As a top expert, Eddie was one of the best bodyguards of the Maddox family.

Eddie was someone from the underground world. Being tired of fighting and killing in the underground world, he came to the Maddox family in Washington.

The Maddox family had helped Eddie, so he was willing to protect them.

Eddie was not married and had no children. He had stayed in the Maddox family for years and watched Ingrid grow up. Therefore, he treated Ingrid as his daughter and behaved like her father to choose whom Ingrid could make friends with.

To some extent, they had ignored Ingrid’s feelings.

Ingrid was outgoing and liked to make friends.

Under the intervention of Eddie and Ingrid’s family, Ingrid could only make friends with children

from rich families, such as Ricky in Sacramento. Ingrid’s friends in Washington were also from rich

families.

Eddie and Ingrid’s family believed the children from rich families would help Ingrid broaden her

horizons.

Although Ingrid was in school, the Maddox family had planned everything for her, including her

husband.

Ingrid’s expected husband was Leo from the Clay family.

Leo was outstanding among the younger generation in Washington. He was twenty–eight years old and the first in line to the Clay family. He had done well in the businesses of the Clay family, and his future would be brilliant.

Ingrid’s parents and Eddie were pleased with Leo.

Therefore, in Eddie’s opinion, it was not appropriate for Ingrid to be close to other men.

From beginning to end, they ignored Ingrid’s opinions.

Ingrid yearned to be a Watchman. They did not care about that, and it was impossible for them to send Ingrid to Night Watch.

Eddie sighed, “Ingrid, you will understand your parents and me in the future. Everything we have done is for you.”

Ingrid got angry at dinner and returned to her room. She didn’t want to go out.

“Beep, beep, beep.” Eddie’s phone rang.

He picked up the phone. After a while, he frowned.

Eddie said with scorn, “Huh, did he say that? Was he warning me?”

On the other end of the line, Warren said, “Mr. Audley, I don’t know the details. It was said by someone I sent over.”

Eddie touched his nose and said, “That’s interesting. Okay, I got it.”

Eddie sent a message to Irvin. Then he stood up and walked to the living room.

After a while, Irvin went downstairs in his pajamas and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Eddie briefly explained the matter. Irvin frowned and said, “He single–handedly dealt with more than a dozen people. Could it be he was sent by Night Watch to protect Ingrid secretly?”

Eddie said, “Absolutely impossible. Watchmen usually keep a low profile and do not attack ordinary people. Even Watchman No. 0, who had been arrogant and disappeared for three years, rarely attacked ordinary people. Moreover, they are cooperating with us. If he is a Watchman, he should give me some hints instead of threatening me.”

Irvin frowned and said, “We have been targeted by Blood Lotus and Dark Phantom. We do need the help of Night Watch. What if he is a Watchman?”

Eddie frowned and said, “I don’t think it is possible. Why does Night Watch keep mysterious and don’t tell us directly? I wonder what they are thinking.”
