Chapter 3 I'm Your Fiancé

"You're Alice?" Robin pushed through the gathering crowd and took a good look at Alice.

Alice frowned, struggling to understand the intentions of this unfamiliar person, and responded coolly, "Who are you? "This is the Miller Group's New Year's party. How dare you make a scene here!

"I suggest you leave now before you really upset the Millers!"

Robin was momentarily surprised. She seems quite assertive, but there's something compelling about her icy attitude. "Alice, I'm your fiancé. I've come to honor our engagement today. So, when can we go to City Hall to finalize the marriage?" Laughter erupted throughout the previously silent hall.

This guy is seriously amusing.

"What are you talking about? If you keep making absurd claims here, I'll kick you out!" Alice retorted sharply.

A man standing next to her stepped forward and declared sternly, "Who is this fool? How dare he sully Alice's reputation!"

"Step aside!" Robin pushed past the man and moved closer to Alice.

"Alice, I really am your fiancé. Here's the marriage contract that my grandfather and your grandfather signed."

Robin presented a yellowed parchment to Alice.
