Chapter 286 What If Your Family Begs Me to Come Back?
They never expected that, even at the last moment, William would still act like he was better than everyone else.
It was as ridiculous as a worm bragging about solving the problems of an eagle.
Jasmine couldn't help but mock him, "Yeah, sure, if there's trouble, we'll come running to you! The Watson family just can't survive without you!"
Everyone else played along, eager to see him leave without causing a scene.
Just then, someone rushed in from outside, shouting, "The car's here! All the luggage is loaded!"
The car was packed with stuff.
William had very little of his own, just a travel bag. The rest were things Fiona had bought for him.
"William, we're all here to see you off! Have a great... um... journey, haha..."
Frank couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.
"Haha!"
The rest of the Watson family joined in, laughing heartily.
Especially Eugene's two brothers, who laughed so hard they nearly lost their balance.
Frank pretended to be serious, "Sorry, I couldn't help it! We're just so happy—no, I mean, so sad! We're laughing through our tears!"
They had always wanted to get this outsider out of the Watson Mansion.
Now, they have finally gotten their wish.
Frank even shouted, "Pop the champagne!"
The servants outside immediately brought in several cases of champagne, stuffing them into ice buckets. With a loud pop, the corks were released, and bubbles sprayed everywhere.
"This is to drive away bad luck! It symbolizes the Watson family's bright future!"
"From now on, without outsiders dragging us down, the Watson family will unite and maybe even secure a place in Sunview City's elite circles!"
"Jasmine will no longer be bound by any engagement and can freely choose, maybe even marry into the top echelons!"
The Watson family began to envision a bright future.
Without William holding them back, they believed their family would rise to new heights.
Jasmine would also have her moment in the spotlight.
Jasmine watched the scene unfold and smiled.
Everyone had been waiting for this moment.
After half a month of waiting, the day had finally come.
She thought—This is great!
She was about to start a new life.
No more worrying about Fiona marrying her off to William.
No more fear of William causing trouble and embarrassing her.
No more facing that repulsive face every day.
It was simply exhilarating!
But she still suppressed her excitement and said to William, "Go on."
William didn't care about their reactions.
He never felt any attachment to the Watson family; he only cared about Fiona.
They reached the door, and the driver was already waiting.
"Oh, by the way, William, here's fifty million dollars! As long as you don't squander it, it should be enough for a lifetime."
"Consider it a reward for keeping your word."
Just as he was about to get into the car, Jasmine pulled out a bank card and shoved it into his hand without giving him a chance to refuse.
William sneered, his gaze falling on a nearby trash can. He was about to throw it away when he suddenly thought of the Kieran couple.
If he just threw it away, wouldn't it be a waste?
It would be better to save it for the Kieran couple's retirement.
To everyone's surprise, William pocketed the bank card.
Jasmine pursed her lips and shook her head in disappointment, "In the end, you still let me down."
"I thought he'd throw the card in the trash. But it seems he's just as worldly as the rest—pretending to be noble."
She had hoped William would be tough enough to throw her handout back in her face.
But that scene never happened.
Eugene chuckled, "Who can refuse money? Especially him."
"I'm leaving. Tell Fiona for me."
William got into the car without looking back.
Jasmine couldn't help but shout, "William, I hope you keep your word and never come back after leaving my house!"
William suddenly stopped in his tracks, "What if your whole family begs me to come back on their knees?"
