Chapter 23
Chapter 23 I Have No Time for Your Charade
Watching Robin's determined back as he walked away, Rita seethed with anger.
As she chased after him, she cursed Robin countless times in her heart.
"Mr. Ramsey, please wait! I need to talk to you!"
Even though she was extremely annoyed, this was the man Daphine had personally invited.
No matter how much it bruised her pride, she had to bring this stubborn man back!
The elevator had already arrived, and Robin was about to step in.
If Robin really decided to leave, closing the elevator and taking off, Rita wouldn't be able to explain it to Daphne.
Rita quickly slipped into the elevator.
She blocked the door.
"Wait, Mr. Ramsey. Since you're Ms. Dunn's bodyguard, you don't need to hand over any weapons. Please, come back with me."
Even though Daphne's private elevator was quite spacious, Robin was standing in a spot just to the left of the center.
In her rush, Rita squeezed into the elevator and ended up standing right in front of the door, almost face-to-face with Robin.
It was an awkward position.
Robin glanced down at the ample curves in front of him.
He smirked, "What's this? Trying to seduce me? I'm not interested!"
"You 1"
Rita suddenly realized how inappropriate their position was.
In her haste, she hadn't noticed that her chest was brushing against him with every breath.
Her face turned bright red, the blush spreading all the way to her ears.
"Please, come back with me," she said.
She then quickly stepped back and pressed the elevator button, trying to suppress her anger.
Robin stepped into the elevator with a cold laugh. "I'm not going back! Who does your boss think she is? Do you think the whole world caters to her?" Seeing that Robin was determined to leave, Rita was at her wit's end. "Mr. Ramsey, just this once, you don't need to hand over your weapons
"Too late!" Robin stepped out of the elevator and headed straight for the fire exit.
Rita had never met a man who showed so little respect for Daphne.
Watching Robin walk away, she could only chase after him and block his path again.
Her beautiful eyes flashed with cold anger. "What will it take for you to come back with me?"
Robin raised an eyebrow. "Nothing will make me go back! Move aside!"
At that moment, Rita realized that all the pride she once had meant nothing in front of this man.
She was completely at a loss for how to deal with him.
+10 Free
She bowed slightly. "I apologize. Can you at least accept that? Now, please come back with me to see Ms. West
"Nope, I'm not going!" Robin chuckled coldly, sidestepping Rita and heading down the stairs.
Who does her boss think she is, trying to play hardball with me, huh?
The richest, most beautiful, and most prestigious women in the world need to make an appointment a year in advance To see me. And even then, I might not have the time or interest Rita felt like she was dealing with a hallucination!
She had humbled herself to this extent, yet he still refused to go back with her!
D*mn it, you stubborn man, what do you want?
Rita was so frustrated she wanted to kick Robin.
But all she could do was stomp her foot in frustration and chase after him again. "Mr. Ramsey, please forgive me. It's all my fault. Please, come back with me..."
Robin smirked, "If you didn't want me to go in, I couldn't go in. But now that you to? Who do you think you are? Get out of the way!"
want me to go in, I have
Rita shouted in despair, "Let me tell you, no man has ever had the privilege of drinking tea alone with Ms. West in Harmonfield. Mr. Ramsey, you should cherish this rare opportunity!" "Ha! Is drinking tea really such a big deal? I'm not interested!
"If Ms. West really has something important to discuss, she can make an appointment. I have no time for your charade."
Rita was infuriated and wanted to punch him.
"You're ungrateful! You're just a bodyguard for Ms. Dunn. What right do you have to act tough in front of Ms. West?!" The next second, Rita suddenly realized Robin had disappeared without a trace!
He had just been here, so where did he got
She looked around frantically for Robin's figure
Suddenly, she was shocked by the scene in front of he
Through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hotel cordor, she www khan hingin for place onside the hotel lobby
At this moment, he was heading toward the Violeteres Kar
There were thirty-nine floors of the Violeteres Hodel.
In less than a minute.
How did he get from the thirty-ninth-floor fire exit directly to the first fear.
"Ms. West..
Rita was still in shock when Daphine appeared in front of her, those enchanting eyes Bashing with displeasure and anger.
"Could you do what Mr. Ramsey just did? Tell me
Daphne asked coldly, looking at Robin in the Violeterest Plaza
"Ms. West
"Imph! I'm sure there isn't a second person in the world who could do that! What right do you have to make things difficult for Mr. Ramsey behind my back?
Rita immediately bowed, "Ms. West, II was wrong I'll go bring Mr. Ramsey back right away?
"Do you think you can bring him back? Daphne Laughed coldly.
"If you could bring him back, he wouldn't be the man I want to meet!"
"Then... then what should I do? Ms. West, please punish me. It's all my fault
Rita lowered her head in repentance, but she was cursing Robin in her heart.
You bastard, someday I'll make you understand how powerful Ms. West is!
"We'll go see him!" Daphne's face darkened as she turned and headed for the elevator.
Watching Daphne walk away, Rita was filled with confusion.
Even if Robin had some skills, why would Ms. West personally go to see him?!
Robin had just settled into the Violeterest Bar when Shirley's assistant, Amber, sent him a message.
"Mr. Ramsey, Rygar has arranged to meet Ms. Dunn at the business reception center across the street to sign the transfer agreement for the Eastvale Ecological Project.
The bar tab has already been paid. Feel free to enjoy yourself here while you wait for Ms. Dunn to return."
After reading Amber's message, Robin made his way to the booth Amber had reserved.
At that moment, Alice and her group, who were drinking and dining on the bar's second floor, also noticed Robin
A flash of anger crossed Alice's eyes.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
Thanks to Robin, she suffered a double blow today! Losing millions of dollars and enduring the humiliation of being slapped by Rita at the Violetcrest Riding and Shooting Entertainment Center.
The incident left her feeling utterly embarrassed
"Didn't Miss Rita take Robin to see Ms. West just now?"
Vera looked at Robin with interest, murmuring to herself. "How did he get back so quickly?"
Alice snorted. "Maybe he was scolded by Ms. West and kicked out."
Raymond stared at Robin for a while.
"This guy might really have some skills. Ms. Dunn seems to to treat him well
Zachary said coldly, "I don't know how this bastard managed to trick Ms. Dunn into trusting him.
"But someone like him, stepping into our world, relying on the Dunns background to strut around and cause trouble, will eventually provoke the wrong person and end up dead without even knowing why." Alice nodded. "It won't be long before he offends everyone in Harmonfield's upper circles, and Ms. Dunn will regret keeping him around."
Zachary agreed. "Alice, it's a good thing you broke off the engagement with him. Otherwise, the Miller family would eventually be dragged into ruin because of him."
Raymond paused for a moment and said, "I heard that recently, the Dunns' old enemies have resurfaced.
"Maybe the Dunns kept Robin around because he's skilled in martial arts, so they have him protecting Ms. Dunn."
Alice looked at Robin as he drank, her eyes full of scom
"A man like him, what else could he do besides brawling? Shirley is just keeping him around for now to use as a shield. How pitiful!"
Vera listened to their conversation and laughed.
She asked, "Maybe you guys just don't know Mr. Ramsey well enough? Or maybe Ms. Dunn really does like him?"
Alice sneered, "Vera, you're giving him too much credit. A man I don't even like; Shirley would never fall for him! Ridiculous!"
Vera smiled meaningfully. If that's the case, then why did Ms. Dunn agree to stake so much money on
Eastvale Ecological Project on Robin's bet without hesitation? Would any of you do that for a mere bodyguard?"
Alice laughed, "Vera, you have too much imagination. Anyway, even if he does have something unique about him. I'll never see him as anything special "Alright then, Alice, you said it yourself. Don't regret it later. Vera said as she stood up, glancing down at Robin.
"I'm going to go have a closer look. I want to understand this man a little better."
