The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

Chapter 2

Chapter 2 A Heavy Blow

Robin left the chaotic scene in a taxi and made his way to the Miller Group's headquarters.

The Miller Group was in the midst of their annual New Year's celebration.

The front of the building was lined with an array of luxurious cars, and festive decorations brightened the place, creating a jubilant atmosphere.

Inside the lobby, a crowd of prominent figures from Harmonfield mingled.

Robin, dressed in casual clothing, looked out of place among the elegantly attired guests.

Despite his unassuming appearance, the doorman allowed him entry.

In today's world, many wealthy young people like to dress down and blend in, making it difficult to distinguish between the wealthy and those less fortunate based on appearance alone. Robin made a beeline for the buffet table in the grand hall.

After enduring a lengthy flight, he was famished.

Ignoring the curious stares of other guests, he loaded his plate with a generous amount of food, grabbed two glasses of red wine, and began to eat with great enthusiasm.

"Is this guy here just to eat and drink?"

"I thought he was some young man from a prominent family, pretending to be humble at the Millers' party."

"Look at him-he's eating like he's never had a meal before."

"Probably some low-level freeloader trying to crash high-society events for a bit of luck."

"Why is this imposter even here? Someone needs to tell the staff to inform the Millers' manager and get him out!"

It wasn't long before Robin attracted the attention of the partygoers.

Chris Miller, the Millers' head butler, approached Robin amid whispers of disapproval.

Seeing Robin devouring his food, Chris's face showed irritation.

"Sir, could you please inform me if you were invited by the Miller Group to this New Year's event?"

Robin continued eating a large steak, looking up briefly as he said, "I wasn't invited by the Millers. I'm Alice's fiancé, here to honor our engagement."
