Chapter 4

Chapter 4 Do You Think You're Good Enough?

Robin, noticing the disdainful expressions on Alice's family members, felt a surge of frustration.

He had come to honor a promise made by his grandfather not to endure condescension based on wealth and status.

With Old Fred's card holding at least two trillion dollars, he believed he didn't deserve to be demeaned by the Millers!

"Enough of this!" Alice interrupted, her face etched with frustration as she cut off her family's barrage.

Turning to Robin, she continued, "Today is the Miller Group's New Year's party, and my grandfather is overseas receiving medical treatment.

"We'll discuss the marriage contract after the party, once we've had a chance to reach my grandfather.

"We honor our promises!

"Since you have the marriage contract, I won't ask you to leave immediately. You can stay and eat to your heart's desire.

"But keep this in mind!

"All the attendees here are prominent figures in Harmonfield, and they are our honored guests. You are not on their level and should not interrupt them, understood?" With a cold glance, Alice tossed the marriage contract back at Robin and walked toward the stage.

Zachary sneered at Robin, saying, "Kid, know your place. Eat what you want, and leave afterwards. This isn't where you belong!"

The crowd's laughter and derision were palpable, and their gazes towards Robin were filled with condescension.

Robin felt a wave of revulsion.

Alice's sophisticated face now seemed repellent to him.
